I'd never heard of Ghost.org, but looking at their website, they appear to be much more than just a free newsletter platform. It's not what I'm looking for, but it does look pretty cool for somebody that needs a professional publishing stack. They show their competitors as Medium, WordPress, Substack, and Patreon, and if I were considering any of those I'd give Ghost a closer look.
Thanks for responding. I only gave Mailchimp a brief glance, admittedly they're no longer a favorite for me, and the pricing page was confusing, but I also don't want to spread misinformation. I'll update again.
Honestly, I never intended to share this, I was just doing research for ourselves, but here we are. I'm sure there are others I've also left off, but ignoring Twilio's SendGrid feels like an oversight, I'll add them now.
Fixed, good catch, thanks! I started my research using other people's spreadsheets rather than checking every vendor's pricing. Must have had old data.
Good catch, thanks. According to the pricing page, Mailchimp starts out around the same as the others, but as soon as you go over 500 contacts, the price jumps from "Standard" $20/month to "Premium" $350/month. I'll add that as a note to the Drawbacks field.
Am I the only one that went looking for Abelique in the app store? Darn... can't find it, maybe it got shut down? Or pulled for violating Apple's TOS?
It wasn't until I saw mention of nominations for a Hugo award that I realized I wasn't reading a (very compelling and surprisingly well written) app review.
