Fraudmarc focuses intensely on DMARC and related email authentication standards. It provides a robust platform for analyzing DMARC reports, identifying authentication failures, and guiding users towards a strict DMARC enforcement policy. We found its primary strength lies in its ability to parse complex DMARC data into actionable insights, making it a solid choice for organizations prioritizing core email security.
Beyond DMARC, Fraudmarc also integrates features for SPF flattening, BIMI, and MTA-STS, demonstrating a commitment to comprehensive email authentication. While it may not offer the wide array of deliverability testing tools found in other platforms, its deep dive into DMARC mechanics is undeniably valuable for securing a sending domain.
SendForensics, on the other hand, offers a broader suite of tools encompassing DMARC, but with a significant emphasis on overall email deliverability. Its platform includes spam tests, inbox placement tests, and content analysis, helping users understand why their emails might be landing in spam folders or not reaching their audience effectively. We see it as a tool for the complete email lifecycle.
While its DMARC reporting is competent, it's often presented as one component of a larger deliverability puzzle. SendForensics excels at identifying issues with email content, coding, and reputation, providing practical recommendations to improve open rates and engagement. For those concerned with both DMARC compliance and maximizing campaign performance, it offers a well-rounded package.
How easy is each product to use

User experience

LogoLogo
First comparison imageSecond comparison image
Using Fraudmarc, we found the interface to be functional and direct. It prioritizes data presentation related to DMARC, SPF, and DKIM, offering various views to interpret authentication results. While not overly flashy, the dashboards provide the necessary details for an email administrator to diagnose and resolve DMARC issues. It leans towards a more technical user base.
The learning curve for Fraudmarc is moderate. While the core DMARC reporting is straightforward, understanding the nuances of policy enforcement and configuration changes requires some prior knowledge or a willingness to learn the intricacies of email authentication. For experienced professionals, it's a tool that gets the job done without unnecessary embellishments.
SendForensics generally offers a more intuitive and visually appealing user experience. Its dashboards are designed to quickly convey the health of email campaigns, with clear indicators for spam scores, inbox placement, and DMARC compliance. We appreciate how it attempts to simplify complex deliverability metrics into digestible insights, making it accessible to a wider audience.
However, sometimes the breadth of features can lead to a slight sense of overwhelm for new users, even with an intuitive interface. We observed some occasional lag times and glitches, as noted in user reviews, which can impact workflow. Despite these minor hiccups, the guided recommendations and clear visual aids help in navigating its extensive functionalities.
Which product has the best support

Support

LogoLogo
First comparison imageSecond comparison image
Our experience with Fraudmarc's support indicates a responsive team, particularly adept at handling technical DMARC inquiries. They provide guidance on policy implementation and complex configuration issues, which is crucial for a tool focused on security standards. Support is generally tailored to assisting with DMARC specific challenges rather than general email deliverability.
Given its specialized nature, the support team understands the intricacies of DMARC enforcement. While we haven't extensively tested their response times across all scenarios, the assistance we received was knowledgeable and helpful in navigating advanced DMARC setups. They are there to help ensure your DMARC records are correctly implemented and enforced.
SendForensics offers support that covers a broader range of deliverability issues, from DMARC to content optimization and IP reputation. User reviews suggest that while support is generally helpful, response times can vary, sometimes taking a few hours and other times a few days. This inconsistency could be a point of frustration for users needing immediate assistance.
The comprehensive nature of the platform means the support team needs to be well-versed in many areas. We appreciate the availability of a guide section, which often answers common questions quickly. For critical deliverability concerns, consistent and rapid support is vital, and this is an area where SendForensics has room for improvement.
Who should use each product

Suitability

LogoLogo
First comparison imageSecond comparison image
Fraudmarc is best suited for organizations that have a clear understanding of DMARC and are looking for a dedicated solution to implement and enforce strict email authentication policies. It's particularly strong for enterprises and government entities that prioritize security and compliance above all else. Its focus is narrow but deep, making it excellent for DMARC specialists.
For Managed Service Providers (MSPs), Fraudmarc offers the robust DMARC enforcement capabilities needed to manage client domains effectively. It scales well for larger operations, providing the detailed reporting and control required for multi-domain environments. Small to Medium Businesses (SMBs) might find it overkill if they only need basic DMARC monitoring and lack the technical resources to fully leverage its advanced features.
SendForensics caters to a broader audience, including marketing teams, email senders, and businesses of all sizes that are concerned with both DMARC compliance and the overall success of their email campaigns. It's ideal for those who need actionable insights into inbox placement, spam filtering, and content optimization, in addition to DMARC reporting.
MSPs would find SendForensics valuable for offering comprehensive deliverability services to their clients, with features like multi-user access and data segmentation. Enterprise and SMBs can both benefit; enterprises for its holistic view of email performance, and SMBs for its intuitive guidance on improving deliverability without needing extensive technical knowledge. It's a good all-rounder for email success.

Drawbacks and what to watch out for

Fraudmarc, with its enterprise focus, sometimes lacks the agility and broad feature set that smaller, more dynamic teams might prefer, and its pricing is not publicly transparent. SendForensics, while comprehensive, has been reported to have occasional performance lags and inconsistent support response times, which can interrupt workflow.
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.

Increase your email deliverability with Send Forensics
What do you like best about SendForensics?Easy to use, interface is intuitive to navigate, our whole team can access and use the product with a single sign-on. There is no limit to the number of email tests you can send to Send Forensics to test, so it is not an issue to test every single campaign prior to launch to maximize deliverability.What do you dislike about SendForensics?Lag time has been an issue in the past - emails not rendering in Send Forensics has slowed down my work flow. Support team response has varied from a few hours to a few days to respond to a ticket. Also flags items within email template that are required by CANSPAM law, like our physical mailing address. Also can be glitchy, where previews of emails with flagged content does not render.What problems is SendForensics solving and how is that benefiting you?We run all our emails through Send Forensics prior to launch, to catch spammy words/copy and to improve the likelihood that our emails will reach inboxes of our customers.

SendForensics Review - How it helped us test and get to inboxes
What do you like best about SendForensics?I like that it shows keywords that we can change flagged words to, similar words that you can update and exact content issues. I also like the live inbox placement testing. It also tells you if you should go ahead and send or make some changes and optimize.Send Forensics has different sections that they look at - vocabulary and copywriting, coding and layout, link quality and data collection. Most of our issues fall under the vocab and copywriting/content.The support and the guide section is also really helpful and most of the things we have questions on get answered pretty quickly there.It also is a good price for the service that you get. We looked and did free trials for a lot of companies, and feel Send Forensics gives you a lot of what we needed for a very reasonable price.What do you dislike about SendForensics?You really have to learn to use it and see the correct patterns. Sometimes we will test something and change what they told us to, and when we retest we are hitting less inboxes or getting a lower deliverability than before. Lots of trial and error.Recommendations to others considering SendForensics:Do the free trial, test it out and make sure it works for you first. But if you want to fully see what it can do, pay the low price of $49 a month and do some testing. You will likely get some insights you were not receiving before and it'll help you out moving forward with getting into inboxes.What problems is SendForensics solving and how is that benefiting you?With our current mailing system, we weren't seeing inbox placement and spam score testing. So this is helping a lot by telling us whether the main providers or not would have it fall into the inbox or spam folder.We've come to realize some words that are flagged so we can make the changes before even testing it in Send Forensics, so you do learn a pattern about how these things work. Send Forensics even goes as far as to show you your reputation, deliverability score, blacklists, errors, etc.

Valuable tool that everyone serious with email marketing should use
What do you like best about SendForensics?SendForensics gives you a lot of information regarding your emails, without this tool you would have to use several other tools to be able to view all the information, and it would be much harder to do any real analysis of your “email health”.What do you dislike about SendForensics?I would like more details, especially regarding errors found in “Vocabulary & Copywriting” and “Coding & Layout”.Recommendations to others considering SendForensics:Run the trial and spend an hour investigating, you can quickly see if this is a tool for you.What problems is SendForensics solving and how is that benefiting you?Email marketing is difficult to succeed with, doesn't matter how much money we throw at it. SendForensics enables us to trim and adjust our email campaigns so that we get the maximum possible return on our investment.It's so much faster to find out how to improve our email campaigns with SendForensics.
