Top recommendations on newsletter automation?

Recommend the best platform you have used to automate newsletter subscription flow (one that is super easy and doesn't break the bank) Anything other than mailchimp?

    Give MailerLite and Sendinblue a try :) @HQ12

    ConvertKit is well liked with creators. and has a free tier.
    Substack for newsletters is cheap: Free.

      I'm looking for a Mailchimp replacement too, so I hope people chime in with recommendations.

      For me, I think Mailchimp is overpriced once you get past the free tier, and I find their UI to be unintuitive and awkward. I've been using it for years and I still get lost finding my way around the site from time to time. In general, I don't enjoy the day-to-day user experience.

      I want to give SendGrid a try, but I haven't had a chance yet.

        @stevenkkim I have the same EXACT issues. For all of us who like getting things done quick and with cleaner UIs, no matter how much I try, I can't get to like what mailchimp is offering in terms of the overall experience. I truly wish they do something to optimize user behavior with the site with time. No doubt the product is great but pricy too for something that takes time to get a good hang of. I will check-out convertkit and sendgrid!
