EasyDMARC provides a comprehensive suite of features designed to simplify the DMARC implementation and monitoring process. We found its dashboard to be intuitive, presenting complex aggregate reports in an easily digestible visual format. This includes clear breakdowns of DMARC compliance, identifying sending sources, and spotting potential spoofing attempts.
Beyond core DMARC reporting, EasyDMARC extends its capabilities with managed solutions for SPF, DKIM, BIMI, and MTA-STS. Its EasySPF feature is particularly useful for flattening SPF records, helping to avoid the 10-lookup limit. Alerting and notification systems are robust, keeping us informed of any changes or issues with our domain's email security.
Fraudmarc Community Edition (CE) is a truly open-source solution, meaning its feature set is entirely reliant on what the community develops or what we, as users, build upon it. The core functionality centers around processing DMARC RUA reports, providing the raw data that underpins DMARC analysis.
While it gives us complete control over our data and its presentation, it lacks many of the out-of-the-box advanced features found in commercial products. We discovered that implementing things like specific notifications, sophisticated source identification, or related protocols (like BIMI or MTA-STS) requires significant technical expertise and custom development.
How easy is each product to use
User experience
EasyDMARC, true to its name, prioritizes ease of use. We found the setup process to be straightforward, guided by clear instructions and often supported by a dedicated onboarding specialist, as many reviews confirm. The dashboard is visually appealing and designed for quick insights, allowing us to grasp our DMARC compliance status at a glance.
Navigating the platform is intuitive, with features logically grouped. Policy adjustments, like moving from `p=none` to `p=quarantine` or `p=reject`, can be managed directly through the interface, which simplifies the typically complex DNS record modifications. We particularly appreciated the comprehensive breakdown of sending sources, making identification and remediation efficient.
Fraudmarc Community Edition (CE) offers a distinctly different user experience. As an open-source tool, it requires a high degree of technical proficiency to set up, configure, and maintain. We're talking command-line interfaces, server management, and deep dives into raw XML data, which is great if you love that sort of thing.
The 'user experience' isn't about a slick dashboard, but rather the flexibility and control that comes with self-hosting. While it empowers us to build exactly what we need, it also means we're responsible for every aspect, from data visualization to alert systems. This makes it challenging for those without strong technical skills or dedicated IT resources.
Which product has the best support
Support
EasyDMARC consistently receives high praise for its customer support, a sentiment we echo from our experience. They offer a knowledge base, email support, and for higher-tier plans, a dedicated DMARC engineer. We found their support team to be responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful in resolving complex DMARC issues.
During onboarding and ongoing use, the availability of experts to guide us through configurations and interpret reports was invaluable. While some users prefer phone support, the efficiency of their email and scheduled meeting options meant our queries were addressed thoroughly and promptly, ensuring our DMARC journey remained on track.
Support for Fraudmarc Community Edition (CE) is exclusively community-driven, primarily through their community forum. We found that this model means assistance depends on the availability and expertise of other users. While open-source communities can be vibrant, it's a stark contrast to dedicated professional support channels.
There's no direct email, phone, or dedicated engineer support, which can be a significant hurdle when facing critical DMARC issues that require immediate expert intervention. For those comfortable with self-help and engaging in forums, it can work, but for urgent matters, we were left to our own devices.
Who should use each product
Suitability
EasyDMARC is highly suitable for SMBs, mid-market businesses, and enterprises that need a user-friendly, guided, and comprehensive DMARC solution. Its tiered pricing model and managed services make it accessible for organizations that may not have deep in-house DMARC expertise but require robust email security.
For MSPs (managed service providers), EasyDMARC offers multi-tenancy and dedicated plans, allowing them to efficiently manage DMARC for multiple clients from a single console. Its feature set, including SPF flattening, BIMI, and MTA-STS, caters to organizations looking for a full-spectrum email authentication platform.
Fraudmarc Community Edition (CE) is best suited for highly technical users or organizations with dedicated IT and security teams that prefer a completely free, open-source, and self-managed solution. It appeals to those who want full control over their data and infrastructure, and who are comfortable with custom development.
It is less suitable for SMBs or enterprises that require managed services, intuitive dashboards, and professional support, as these features necessitate significant in-house resources to replicate. MSPs would find it challenging to scale this solution across multiple clients due to the lack of built-in multi-tenancy and managed features.

Drawbacks and what to watch out for
EasyDMARC, while generally well-received, faces some criticisms regarding its onboarding for complex DMARC concepts, occasional UI changes, and the feeling of being pushed towards higher-cost plans. Some users also noted that its infrastructure experienced temporary slowdowns with high workloads, although this was reportedly being addressed. For Fraudmarc Community Edition, the primary drawback is its inherently DIY nature, demanding significant technical expertise and time investment for setup, ongoing maintenance, and the development of custom reporting or alerting functionalities.
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.
4.8 / 5(135)
0 / 5(0)
Just poor onboarding and sales support
0.5 / 5
What do you like best about EasyDMARC? The aggregated reports are great, as well as the ability to have multiple domain reports displayed in one reporting system. What do you dislike about EasyDMARC? I started my free trial after a sales rep gave me a demo of the tool. I added 12 domains to the system. Ultimately, I was motivated to start using the software since it takes some time to set up. After all domains were set up, I reached back out to schedule another meeting (that's the only support available during the trial) trying to understand "what's next". It costs $79 for 5 domains; so I knew 12 domains would cost more, but I couldn't really grasp the business case yet. Why use easyDMARC over not using it? Setting up DKIM, SPF, etc., can be done without it. In the second meeting, my salesperson wasn't helpful at all. She pointed out that she had already answered some of my questions in the first meeting, repeatedly mentioned how important "this all" is, and that their customers are all happy. But I still didn't understand how to use it effectively. How do I go about using this software daily and make it part of my business routine? The conversation became heated when we went through an aggregated report by domain and looked at non-compliant traffic. There was some, and I didn't know what the source was. So, I asked, "What do I do now with this information?" She responded that she is not an engineer and that after I subscribe, I can reach out to customer service, but that all their customers find this all very easy. I had to stop the conversation and felt very disappointed since I was simply looking for an explanation on how to use the information provided so I could build a case for why it makes sense to buy this software for my company. What problems is EasyDMARC solving and how is that benefiting you? I was hoping to find a solution that keeps us on top of complience, reporting and data management.

Unique Email Security Features, But Reporting Needs Improvement
3.5 / 5
What do you like best about EasyDMARC? The easydmarc platform offers some features that many major email security companies do not provide, such as managed DMARC and managed DKIM. It also includes support for BIMI and MTA-STS. What do you dislike about EasyDMARC? The reporting section feels quite basic. It would be helpful if there were an AI feature to improve the wording, such as clarifying that after enforcing a DMARC policy set to p=reject, any non-compliant or threat-sending sources will no longer have their messages delivered to the receiver. What problems is EasyDMARC solving and how is that benefiting you? Easydmarc addresses the visibility challenges that often arise when implementing DMARC. By providing a clear list of sending sources, separated into compliant and non-compliant sections, it allows us to identify legitimate senders within our organization—even those that might not be known to the IT department. Additionally, the platform simplifies the process of implementing BIMI and MTA-STS, making it possible to set them up with just a few clicks.

Great for MSPs, but Frequent Updates and Manual DNS Changes Add Complexity
4.0 / 5
What do you like best about EasyDMARC? Multi-tenanted and easy to use for MSP to deploy managed DMARC for customers What do you dislike about EasyDMARC? The platform keeps adding more features, and I find myself needing to learn how to deploy all of them. It also requires me to make manual changes through DNS, which adds another step to the process. What problems is EasyDMARC solving and how is that benefiting you? DMARC and SPF management consolidated for all customers in a single console.

One of the best UI for analyzing millions of emails
4.0 / 5
What do you like best about EasyDMARC? The UI was the top among the competitors. It makes DMARC analysing task to be very easy. The other tools' interface was very complex compared to EasyDMARC. The support team is also very attentive and they are very quick. What do you dislike about EasyDMARC? Their current infrastructure is not enough for the current workload and they are transitioning a new infrastructure to solve this issue which is temporarily. They dont have sub-domain categorization to classify all the sub-domains for their intended purpose. However, they informed that this feature request is on their roadmap. Other than these, there is actually nothing that I can think of being a task-blocker for my daily operation. What problems is EasyDMARC solving and how is that benefiting you? To analyze our large landscape of our email providers that are used for campaings, transactional emails, system notification emails. We are also interested to continuiosly monitor the malicious actors that impersonates our email domains. One of the best use case of DMARC analyzers is to provice a large overview to fix all email records if a domain is missing them like SPF, DKIM and DMARC DNS records.

Easy enough to use for someone who is not familiar with DMARC
4.0 / 5
What do you like best about EasyDMARC? Its an incredibly straight forward product. There is managed DMARC, BIMI, and MTA-STS that once added to DNS can be configured quickly! Additionally their customer support is top knotch. I created a ticket, was contacted within 10 minutes, and they answered all my questions. What do you dislike about EasyDMARC? This is likely not something they can do based on DNS limitations, but I'd like to see a managed DKIM option if at all possible. What problems is EasyDMARC solving and how is that benefiting you? My company had no DMARC policy in place. This was causing some of our business emails to end up in spam as well as finding spam companies somehow using our domain. While I haven't configured our policy to reject yet, its made the process to get to there much easier.
