SendForensics goes beyond basic DMARC reporting, offering a suite of deliverability tools. We found its DMARC analytics to be robust, providing clear insights into email authentication results and traffic patterns. It helps identify legitimate sending sources and flags potential spoofing attempts effectively.
Beyond DMARC, SendForensics incorporates spam tests, inbox placement tests, and blocklist (or blacklist) monitoring. This holistic approach means we can use it to diagnose a wide array of email delivery issues, not just DMARC compliance. It's designed for a proactive stance on email deliverability.
Techsneeze DMARCts report viewer is a focused tool designed solely for parsing and visualizing DMARC aggregate reports. It provides a straightforward interface to see DMARC compliance data for SPF and DKIM, helping us understand authentication results for our domains. It's a no-frills solution for raw DMARC data.
As an open-source project, its feature set is limited to the core task of DMARC report viewing. It doesn't offer advanced features like real-time alerts, proactive deliverability testing, or integrated tools for SPF flattening or BIMI. Its strength lies in its simplicity and the ability to self-host.
How easy is each product to use

User experience

LogoLogo
First comparison imageSecond comparison image
We found SendForensics to be generally intuitive, with an interface that is easy to navigate, particularly for those familiar with email marketing and deliverability concepts. The dashboards present data clearly, allowing for quick identification of issues. The learning curve is moderate, given the breadth of features it offers.
Setting up SendForensics involves configuring DMARC records to send reports to their service. Once configured, data flows in automatically. The testing tools for spam and inbox placement are straightforward, requiring only an email to be sent to a designated address. However, understanding all the insights does require some subject matter expertise.
The Techsneeze DMARCts report viewer has a relatively simple user interface once it's up and running. The core functionality, viewing aggregate reports, is easily accessible. However, the initial setup process is not for the faint of heart, as it requires self-hosting and configuring a web server, database, and PHP environment.
This means that while daily usage is simple, getting to that point demands a good understanding of server administration and command-line operations. For users comfortable with these technical aspects, the interface is functional and provides the necessary DMARC insights without unnecessary complexities.
Which product has the best support

Support

LogoLogo
First comparison imageSecond comparison image
SendForensics offers dedicated support channels, typically through ticketing systems and documentation. We found their knowledge base helpful for common queries and setup guides. Response times for support tickets can vary, as noted in some user feedback, but assistance is available for troubleshooting and understanding the platform's features.
For a commercial product, having formal support is a given, and SendForensics provides this. They also offer resources to help users maximize their email deliverability efforts, which is a valuable extension of their support offerings. This ensures that help is available when we run into complex issues.
As an open-source project, Techsneeze DMARCts report viewer relies on community support. This means that formal, dedicated support isn't provided in the same way a commercial product would offer it. Users typically find help through forums, GitHub issues, or by consulting the project's documentation.
The quality and speed of support can therefore be inconsistent, depending on the activity of the community. For those comfortable with open-source ecosystems, this is standard, but for organizations expecting immediate, guaranteed assistance, it presents a significant difference. We're on our own, or we rely on the kindness of strangers.
Who should use each product

Suitability

LogoLogo
First comparison imageSecond comparison image
SendForensics is best suited for organizations that prioritize comprehensive email deliverability and security beyond just DMARC compliance. It's a strong choice for marketing teams, e-commerce businesses, and anyone for whom email success is critical. It provides detailed insights that help optimize email campaigns.
For SMBs, it offers an accessible entry point to professional email monitoring. Enterprise clients benefit from its scalability and advanced reporting capabilities. MSPs will find its multi-domain management and extensive feature set valuable for managing multiple clients' email health, though specific multi-tenancy features are tied to higher plans.
Techsneeze DMARCts report viewer is ideal for technically proficient individuals or small organizations looking for a free, self-hosted solution to view DMARC reports. It's particularly attractive to those with existing server infrastructure and the expertise to deploy and maintain open-source software.
It might appeal to SMBs with in-house IT expertise seeking to keep costs down. Enterprise and MSPs would likely find its lack of advanced features, formal support, and multi-tenancy capabilities (in the commercial sense) limiting, unless they are willing to invest significant development resources to build out its functionality.

Drawbacks and what to watch out for

SendForensics, while powerful, has faced feedback regarding occasional lag times and varied support response speeds. It also sometimes flags legitimate elements like physical mailing addresses. Techsneeze DMARCts report viewer, being a self-hosted open-source solution, inherently comes with the drawback of requiring significant technical expertise for setup and maintenance, and it lacks any formal support channel.

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.
