Are there alternatives to SendGrid for transactional emails?

Needing to integrate a transaction email service for Decision Donkey for account sign ups, password resets, etc.

I only know of SendGrid for this type of service. What are the other options for me to consider?

    https://postmarkapp.com is what I use! I’ve always found them to be reliable.

    I’ve also heard of these but never used them:

    Mailgun
    https://mailgun.com

    Amazon SES
    https://aws.amazon.com/ses/

      I second Postmark, use that for IH. I've also used SparkPost but don't like it as much as Postmark. cc @tyler_johnson

      I use Mailgun as well and enjoy the service. They have an HTTP API and support SMTP.

      Great, thanks! I'll check them out!

    check out Kingmailer.co

    We’re not doing newsletters, just only transactional emails like sign up emails, with the focus on email delivery to inbox

    I actually just launched one myself this week: https://maildown.dev, which accepts markdown emails, making it very quick and simple to send nicely formatted emails programmatically
