Send-Shield provides a clear dashboard that allows users to monitor DMARC compliance across their domains. It emphasizes straightforward reporting and threat detection, making it accessible for those new to DMARC.
We found its core offering effective for basic DMARC needs, with features like DMARC, SPF, and DKIM checks, alongside monthly message caps that scale with their plans. The reporting is functional, though it leans more towards actionable insights rather than deep-dive forensic analysis.
Postmastery's console, including its DMARC Reports module, integrates into a broader suite of deliverability tools. It aims to provide comprehensive insights, often tailored to larger, more complex email ecosystems with specific needs.
Its strength lies in its ability to support advanced configurations and provide detailed forensic data for those who need to troubleshoot intricate deliverability issues beyond just DMARC compliance. We observed a focus on deeper data analysis capabilities, suggesting it's built for power users.

User experience

Send-Shield prioritizes ease of use with an intuitive interface. The dashboard is clean, and the data presentation is designed to be easily digestible, even for those who might not be DMARC experts.
Setup is guided, and we found that navigating through reports and identifying non-compliant sources was straightforward. It's a pragmatic choice for users who want to get DMARC up and running without excessive complexity.
Postmastery's console offers a more extensive set of features, which naturally leads to a slightly steeper learning curve. However, for those familiar with email deliverability nuances, the interface is logical and provides access to granular data.
We found that its strength lies in its customization and advanced filtering options, which are highly beneficial for in-depth analysis. While it might not be as 'plug-and-play' as Send-Shield, the power it offers is well worth the initial exploration.

Support

Send-Shield offers tiered support based on the plan. Their Starter plan includes basic email support, while higher tiers like Core and Plus add meeting support. Enterprise users get premium 24/7 support and a dedicated account manager.
In our experience, the support team is responsive and knowledgeable for general DMARC queries. The escalation path for more complex issues is clear, with dedicated resources for larger plans, which is a good offering for businesses growing their DMARC journey.
Postmastery prides itself on providing enterprise-grade support, often tied to their broader consulting services. While their DMARC console includes support, their deep expertise in email deliverability extends to comprehensive advisory.
We found that Postmastery's support is highly tailored, with a strong emphasis on expert guidance for complex deliverability challenges. This approach is particularly beneficial for large organizations that require strategic assistance in addition to tool support.

Suitability

Send-Shield is well-suited for Small to Medium Businesses (SMBs) and those starting their DMARC journey. Its structured plans and clear feature sets make it an excellent choice for organizations that need a reliable DMARC monitoring solution without extensive customization.
For Managed Service Providers (MSPs), Send-Shield could serve as a foundational tool for clients with less complex DMARC requirements, allowing for efficient rollout and management. Enterprise users might find it suitable for monitoring specific, less critical domains or as a stepping stone.
Postmastery is designed for Enterprise clients and organizations with sophisticated email infrastructures. Its robust reporting and deep integration capabilities cater to those who require granular control and expert consultancy alongside their DMARC monitoring.
MSPs serving enterprise clients or those with complex, multi-domain environments will find Postmastery's comprehensive approach and tailored solutions highly valuable. SMBs might find it overkill unless they have particularly advanced deliverability needs from the outset.

Drawbacks and what to watch out for

Send-Shield's main drawback is its more limited feature set compared to broader deliverability platforms, which might require additional tools for comprehensive email management. Postmastery, on the other hand, can feel less accessible for those new to DMARC due to its enterprise-focused complexity and lack of transparent pricing.
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.
