What is the primary difference between Report-URI and Everest?

Report-URI is a specialized tool focused purely on DMARC and email authentication protocols like SPF, DKIM, MTA-STS, and TLS-RPT. Everest is a broader email deliverability platform that includes DMARC monitoring alongside features like inbox placement, reputation management, and email engagement analytics.

Which tool is better for DMARC implementation?

Both tools can assist with DMARC implementation. Report-URI offers deep, granular insights into DMARC reports, making it excellent for fine-tuning policy and forensic analysis. Everest provides DMARC monitoring as part of its larger suite, offering a more consolidated view of email health, which can also be effective for implementation, especially when integrating with other deliverability efforts.

Does Report-URI offer reputation monitoring like Everest?

Report-URI's focus is on email authentication and security protocols, not general IP or domain reputation monitoring across various blocklists (or blacklists). Everest, on the other hand, explicitly includes comprehensive reputation monitoring as a core feature within its platform.

Is there a free option for either Report-URI or Everest?

Yes, Report-URI offers a generous free tier for smaller users. Everest provides very low-cost monthly plans for minimal email volumes, which serves as an accessible entry point or trial for those needing its broader suite of tools.

Which product is better for MSPs?

For MSPs primarily focused on providing strong email security and DMARC compliance services, Report-URI's specialized multi-tenant features are highly suitable. MSPs that offer broader email marketing and deliverability services to their clients might find Everest's comprehensive platform more aligned with their service offerings.

Feature set

Report-URI provides a robust and highly specialized platform for DMARC, SPF, DKIM, TLS-RPT, and MTA-STS monitoring. Its strength lies in its meticulous focus on email security protocols, offering granular insight into authentication failures and potential spoofing attempts.

We find its interface efficient for deep dives into specific security reports, making it a go-to for organizations that prioritize strict adherence to email authentication standards and need detailed forensic data.

Everest offers a comprehensive suite of email deliverability tools that extends well beyond DMARC. While it includes DMARC monitoring, its broader appeal is in its holistic approach to inbox placement, reputation monitoring (including various blacklists or blocklists), and engagement analytics.

We appreciate its integration of multiple data sources, providing a more complete picture of email program health, from pre-send testing to post-send performance analysis. It aims to be a one-stop shop for email marketers and deliverability professionals.

How easy is each product to use

User experience

Report-URI's user interface is functional and straightforward, designed for users who understand DMARC and related protocols. It presents data clearly, often in a table or graph format, which allows for quick identification of issues. We found its setup process to be relatively simple, particularly if you're comfortable with DNS records.

However, for those new to email authentication, the sheer volume of technical data might feel a bit overwhelming without prior knowledge. It's a tool built by experts, for experts, or those willing to become one.

Everest, being a more expansive platform, has a more polished and guided user experience. Its dashboards are highly customizable, allowing users to prioritize the metrics most relevant to them. We found the navigation, while extensive, to be intuitive, especially after initial setup.

The platform aims to simplify complex deliverability concepts, offering visual aids and contextual information. While it might take a bit longer to grasp all its capabilities, the onboarding experience is generally smoother for a broader audience, including marketing teams.

Which product has the best support

Support

Report-URI offers support primarily through documentation and email. Given its focused nature, many common questions are addressed in its comprehensive guides. For more specific inquiries, we've found their email support to be knowledgeable, albeit sometimes with a slight delay.

The community around DMARC and Report-URI is also active, which can be a valuable, informal support channel for highly technical questions. It's not a 'hand-holding' type of support, but it's effective for its target audience.

Everest, as a larger enterprise solution, provides more structured support options, often including dedicated customer success managers for higher tiers. We've experienced varied feedback on their support, with some users praising the responsiveness of account managers while others note that technical questions can take longer to resolve.

Their comprehensive platform means there's a wider range of potential issues, from API integrations to specific deliverability challenges, requiring a more diverse support team. While generally good, consistency can sometimes be a factor, as noted in some user reviews.

Who should use each product

Suitability

Report-URI is ideal for organizations or individuals who need precise, in-depth DMARC (and related email security protocols) monitoring and reporting. It's particularly well-suited for security-conscious IT departments, domain administrators, and smaller MSPs focusing on security.

For enterprise clients, it offers the core DMARC visibility without the bells and whistles of broader marketing deliverability, making it a powerful, specialized tool. SMBs with a strong focus on email security hygiene will also find it very suitable.

Everest is best for email marketing teams, larger businesses, and enterprise organizations that require a holistic view of their email program's performance. Its comprehensive features, from inbox placement to reputation monitoring across various blocklists (or blacklists), cater to those managing large-scale email campaigns.

MSPs serving marketing-focused clients, and enterprise companies needing an all-in-one deliverability platform will find Everest highly beneficial. For SMBs, the lower-tier plans offer a good starting point for broader deliverability insights, though potentially at a higher cost for similar DMARC-only functionality compared to alternatives.

Drawbacks and what to watch out for

When considering the drawbacks, Report-URI's primary limitation is its specialized focus. If your needs extend beyond DMARC to broader deliverability metrics like inbox placement testing or comprehensive blacklist monitoring, you'll find yourself needing additional tools. For Everest, while comprehensive, some users report challenges with the setup process and inconsistent support for highly technical issues. Its expansive feature set can also lead to a steeper learning curve for new users.

Monitoring for PROs

5.0 / 5

What I like the most about New Relic is how easy it is instal the trackers on the different well know servers and systems like Apache, AWS, S3 Object etc. The visualisation is the live data are great. Sometimes it is difficult to delete a tracker if it still detects trafic. You can't delete them if the tracker continues to receive records - something that happens regularly when we have used CDN networks Use the correct version of the tracker for your specific system It solved the live monitoring problem and extra expenses for monitoring softwares that monitor the health and the responsiveness of our services and platforms. It is also connected with Atlassian Statuspage which give a better performance view for our clients.

Shady sales practice shoot down ok software - don't use these guys

0.5 / 5

What do you like best about Everest? The software is decent and the validation program works for Microsoft (Hotmail etc) based email, but not for Gmail What do you dislike about Everest? Terrible sales practice. Call you within 45 days of renewal, when you ask to change you are told you can't as there is a hidden lock-in in the T+Cs, you need to give 60 days' notice. Legal but shady, we renewed and then immediately gave notice for next year. They used to be good not so now. Recommendations to others considering Everest: Find another supplier, these guys are sharks What problems is Everest solving and how is that benefiting you? Helped delivery to MS-based email

Good for Beginners in Deliverability...Could be Better for Pros

2.0 / 5

What do you like best about Everest? Setting up Dashboards to monitor all deliverability metrics What do you dislike about Everest? Support is okay, but it could be lot better Navigational aids are not comparable to other industry-rated tools. Recommendations to others considering Everest: New to the deliverability landscape, this tool is perfect for you, but if you are an industry pro and understand the ins and outs of deliverability I would look elsewhere. What problems is Everest solving and how is that benefiting you? Improving inbox placement Lowering spam complaints

What do you like best about Everest? Able to help in domain and IP blacklisted daily checking. Quick display the domain reputation status. After using Inbox placement service and domains/IP pools, feel their interface is nice and clear. What do you dislike about Everest? Does not provide the IP or domain score with ISP like Hotmail and Yahoo. Inbox percentage in accurate due to need send to all seed's ISP just able to get the score. Inbox percentage for Hotmail does not accurate. Does not provide whitelisting service for IPs. It is just a simple domain blacklisting status system. What problems is Everest solving and how is that benefiting you? None of the problem have been solving through this Everest. It just a inbox placement display system only. Easily noticed on domain blacklisted only. Other than this are nothing.

It's been really difficult to switch over to Everest from Return Path due to seedlist testing issues

2.5 / 5

What do you like best about Everest? I like the accessibility to create dashboards and share across the org. What do you dislike about Everest? The only downside was that it was extremely difficult to switch over to everest from return path due to seedlisting issues mainly from our ESP, Braze What problems is Everest solving and how is that benefiting you? Mainly using everest for deliverability measurement. havent had the chance to use it for more since we've been spending a lot of time switching platforms.

So far not so good

3.0 / 5

What do you like best about Everest? We've been working on setting up since mid-August, but due to issues on the platform side, have been unable to fully set up. That said, our account manager has been responsive and diligently working on getting the issues resolved, so I would say that the user support is the best part. What do you dislike about Everest? We're on our third month trying to get set up due to platform issues, which I think is not great considering the price. Return Path set up went much smoother, and we were able to get started right away without a hitch. Recommendations to others considering Everest: Prepare for a longer-than-estimated setup process. What problems is Everest solving and how is that benefiting you? Monitoring email deliverability is of utmost importance to our business. Being able to see when things take a turn for the worse and being able to react quickly helps us keep our email reputation positive and keeps our emails in user's inboxes!
