Feature set

DMARCPal provides a structured approach to DMARC reporting, offering plans from basic monitoring to more advanced implementation and debugging tools. Its core strength lies in presenting email provider reports to help users understand their DMARC compliance over time.
For those with a solid grasp of DMARC, SPF, and DKIM, DMARCPal offers the essential visibility needed to analyze email authentication data. The Premium plan extends this with specific email alerts for broken DNS records, adding a layer of proactive monitoring for critical infrastructure.
OnDMARC presents a robust and feature-rich platform, excelling in dynamic management of SPF, DKIM, DMARC, MTA-STS, TLS-RPT, and BIMI. We found its Investigate tool particularly useful for immediate diagnosis of deliverability issues, and its Radar feature helps identify potential threats beyond standard DMARC reporting.
Beyond core authentication, OnDMARC offers advanced capabilities like forensic reporting in its Essentials plan and above, providing granular details on email failures. The Premier plan further enhances security with DNS Guardian, Event Hub for SIEM integration, and Global IP Lookup, catering to highly demanding security environments.
How easy is each product to use

User experience

LogoLogo
First comparison imageSecond comparison image
DMARCPal's design is geared towards users who are already familiar with email authentication protocols. We found the interface to be functional and direct, focusing on presenting DMARC data without excessive hand-holding. This can be efficient for experienced IT professionals.
While not explicitly stated as user-friendly for beginners, its straightforward approach means that once you understand the DMARC landscape, navigating and utilizing DMARCPal's tools for reporting and debugging is quite logical. It prioritizes information delivery over complex visualizations.
OnDMARC generally receives high marks for its user-friendly interface and intuitive dashboard. We appreciate the guided workflows that help users move from monitoring to enforcement with confidence, making the DMARC journey less daunting.
However, some users, including ourselves, have noted that the GUI can sometimes feel a bit clunky or overwhelming, especially when first getting started or trying to locate specific, less common features. Despite this, the overall consensus is that the platform simplifies complex tasks effectively.
Which product has the best support

Support

LogoLogo
First comparison imageSecond comparison image
DMARCPal's pricing information implies standard support for its various plans. Without specific details on support channels or response times, we infer that it provides essential assistance for navigating the platform and understanding reports.
For users opting for the Premium plan, the inclusion of email alerts for broken DNS records suggests a proactive element to their service. However, for direct human interaction, the specifics are not publicly highlighted, suggesting a more self-service oriented approach for basic issues.
OnDMARC's support structure is clearly defined and widely praised by its users. We've experienced their team to be responsive, knowledgeable, and proactive, with G2 reviews frequently highlighting excellent customer service and regular check-ins.
While email support is standard across most plans, the Premier plan elevates this significantly by offering chat and phone support, a dedicated account manager, and custom SLAs, providing comprehensive assistance for complex enterprise needs. The consistent positive feedback on their support team is a major advantage.
Who should use each product

Suitability

LogoLogo
First comparison imageSecond comparison image
DMARCPal is particularly suitable for small to medium businesses (SMBs) and IT teams that possess a strong understanding of email authentication protocols. Its 'Lite' and 'Standard' plans cater to those who primarily need robust DMARC reporting and debugging tools without extensive, managed services.
For Managed Service Providers (MSPs) or larger enterprises, DMARCPal might serve as a foundational tool for monitoring, but it may lack the advanced features like multi-tenancy, comprehensive API access, or deep forensic reporting that these organizations often require. It's best for users who prefer a hands-on, self-managed approach.
OnDMARC is well-suited for a broad spectrum of organizations, from small businesses (SMBs) leveraging its 'Express' plan for simple DMARC management, to mid-market and large enterprises requiring advanced email security. Its comprehensive feature set, including dynamic services and forensic reporting, addresses diverse needs.
For MSPs and large enterprises, OnDMARC shines with its ability to manage unlimited domains, provide user permissioning (in Premier), offer API access (Essentials+), and integrate with SIEMs via Event Hub (Premier). The strong support structure also makes it an excellent choice for organizations that value guided DMARC implementation and ongoing management.

Drawbacks and what to watch out for

DMARCPal's primary drawback is the lack of transparent pricing and limited public reviews, making it challenging to assess its value proposition and user experience without direct engagement. Its feature set appears less comprehensive compared to competitors, potentially limiting its appeal for larger organizations or those requiring advanced security tools. OnDMARC, despite its comprehensive offerings, occasionally presents a clunky or overwhelming user interface to new users, and some advanced features are locked behind higher-tier, contact-for-pricing plans, which might be a barrier for some.
We have pulled the average ratings from G2 for each product, and also included the most recent negative reviews for each product in full. Positive reviews tend to have less detail and have a higher chance of being fraudulent, so negative reviews are a better signal for your decision.

Dynamic SPF and Powerful Features, GUI Could Use Improvement
What do you like best about Red Sift OnDMARC? I have been using Red Sift OnDMARC for over three years for monitoring DMARC, SPF, and DKIM across multiple domains, which would be difficult to manage without such a tool. It offers the ease of dynamic SPF and dynamic DMARC, which simplify complex monitoring tasks. The software provides a powerful set of features, making any initial setup challenges worthwhile. I especially value the single pane of glass interface as an IT administrator managing domains that engineers use, allowing me to track domain usage, detect spam issues, and dynamically update DMARC, DKIM, and SPF with ease. The dynamic SPF and DMARC/DKIM reports are integral for my operations, as they save considerable time by turning potentially lengthy tasks into several-minute jobs. Furthermore, the friendliness and support from our account manager, alongside our quarterly meetings, enhance the overall experience and decision to continue using the platform. What do you dislike about Red Sift OnDMARC? I find the GUI a little bit difficult to navigate sometimes and a bit clunky, which sometimes makes it hard to find what I want. What problems is Red Sift OnDMARC solving and how is that benefiting you? I use the product to monitor DMARC, SPF, and DKIM across domains, simplifying updates and detecting spam issues with ease. It turns lengthy tasks into minutes, providing a comprehensive view of domain usage and security.

Easy DMARC implementation with great visibility
What do you like best about Red Sift OnDMARC? OnDMARC makes it very easy to set up and maintain DMARC records. The guided workflows and clear reporting helped us move from monitoring to full enforcement confidently. The user interface is intuitive, and support is very responsive whenever we have questions. What do you dislike about Red Sift OnDMARC? It would be helpful if some of the reporting dashboards allowed more customization or export options. Sometimes, the volume of daily reports can feel overwhelming without filtering. What problems is Red Sift OnDMARC solving and how is that benefiting you? It is helping us prevent domain spoofing and phishing attacks by enforcing DMARC policies. It has also improved visibility into who is sending emails on behalf of our domain, so we can take quick action if needed. Overall, it has strengthened our email security posture and improved trust in our communications.

It is quite a useful tool to manage SPF/DKIM/DMARC records and understand it's impact on the domain.
What do you like best about Red Sift OnDMARC? The ease of using the application and the UI that is provides that helps in managing the records of the domain. Plus the customer service for the tool is quite responsive. What do you dislike about Red Sift OnDMARC? The limitation of the feature of MTA-STS, in which it reports only a few of the domains. What problems is Red Sift OnDMARC solving and how is that benefiting you? It helps us in getting a clearer picture of the use case of our domain, plus the acceptance and the rejection rate.

Easy DMARC setup
What do you like best about Red Sift OnDMARC? We have had OnDMARC for several years, we onboarded all of our managed domains over the past 12months. It was very easy adding SPF, DKIM records and moving DMARC to 100% Reject. We had support from Red Sift all the way. What do you dislike about Red Sift OnDMARC? Sometimes the dashboard is misleading, i had moved a domain to reject 50% and the dashboard didn't reflect that. but customer support fixed that very quickly What problems is Red Sift OnDMARC solving and how is that benefiting you? Securing our domains to bring them up to 100% Reject
