Feature set

Skysnag offers a comprehensive suite of DMARC features, going beyond basic reporting to include advanced automation for all core email authentication protocols, including DMARC, SPF, and DKIM. It's designed to streamline the entire process from setup to enforcement, handling much of the complexity behind the scenes. We've found their platform excels at providing deep insights into email traffic patterns.
The platform also integrates with supplementary email security protocols such as BIMI for brand recognition and MTA-STS/TLS-RPT for secure transport, which is a significant advantage for organizations looking for an all-encompassing solution. This broad feature set means less manual configuration and more time spent on strategic email security initiatives.
Docker DMARC Reports, as an open-source project, focuses primarily on parsing and visualizing DMARC reports. It provides a functional, self-hosted solution for gaining visibility into your DMARC compliance. Users configure it to pull reports from a specified IMAP mailbox and store the parsed data in a database, which can then be viewed through a basic web interface. It’s a straightforward approach to DMARC reporting without many bells and whistles.
While it effectively gathers and displays aggregate DMARC data, it lacks advanced features like automated SPF flattening, BIMI support, or integrated MTA-STS management. Its strength lies in its simplicity and the complete control it offers over your data and infrastructure, making it a viable option for those with the technical resources to manage it.
How easy is each product to use

User experience

LogoLogo
First comparison imageSecond comparison image
Skysnag aims for an intuitive and automated user experience. From our hands-on evaluation, we can confirm that the onboarding process is generally streamlined, with clear guidance for DNS record setup. The dashboard presents DMARC, SPF, and DKIM data in an easily digestible format, helping users understand their email authentication status at a glance. Even complex configurations are made more manageable through their interface.
However, some users might find the initial setup for advanced features a bit steep if they are new to DMARC. Once configured, daily monitoring and management are straightforward, thanks to its automation capabilities. The platform is designed to minimize ongoing manual intervention, allowing teams to focus on actionable insights rather than data crunching.
The user experience for Docker DMARC Reports is fundamentally different, as it's a self-hosted open-source tool. The initial setup requires a significant level of technical expertise, including comfort with Docker, IMAP, databases (MySQL/PostgreSQL), and DNS configurations. We found that deploying and configuring the service involves several manual steps, which can be a barrier for less technical users. There is no graphical user interface for setup, only command-line interactions.
Once operational, the web interface provides a basic view of DMARC aggregate reports. It's functional for reviewing data, but it lacks the polished dashboards, detailed drill-downs, and proactive alerting common in commercial DMARC solutions. For those comfortable with the command line and server administration, it offers a raw, unfiltered view of their DMARC data.
Which product has the best support

Support

LogoLogo
First comparison imageSecond comparison image
Skysnag, as a commercial product, offers dedicated customer support. From our experience, their support team is responsive and knowledgeable, assisting with everything from initial setup challenges to advanced DMARC policy configurations. They provide guidance on DNS changes and help troubleshoot deliverability issues, which is invaluable for ensuring DMARC enforcement doesn't inadvertently block legitimate email.
Their support structure typically includes various channels such as email, chat, and potentially phone support, depending on the service tier. This level of professional support is a key differentiator, especially for organizations that prefer a hands-on approach from experts when navigating complex email authentication protocols.
Docker DMARC Reports relies on community support, as is typical for open-source projects. This means users primarily depend on documentation, GitHub issues, and potentially forums for assistance. While the project's documentation is generally helpful for installation and configuration, it doesn't offer the personalized, direct support that a commercial vendor would.
We found that troubleshooting complex issues or specific edge cases can be challenging, often requiring users to have deep technical knowledge to diagnose and resolve problems themselves. For organizations accustomed to commercial service level agreements, this reliance on community-driven support (or self-support) can be a significant consideration.
Who should use each product

Suitability

LogoLogo
First comparison imageSecond comparison image
Skysnag is highly suitable for a range of organizations, particularly those that prioritize automation, comprehensive feature sets, and professional support. For MSPs (managed service providers), it offers a robust platform to manage DMARC for multiple clients efficiently. Enterprise clients benefit from its advanced integrations, scalability, and ability to handle complex email ecosystems.
SMBs (small and medium-sized businesses) will also find value, especially if they are looking for a DMARC solution that reduces the technical burden and provides strong protection against phishing and spoofing without needing dedicated in-house email security expertise. It's ideal for businesses that want to reach full DMARC enforcement (p=reject) quickly and reliably.
Docker DMARC Reports is best suited for organizations with strong internal IT or DevOps capabilities and a preference for open-source solutions. It's an excellent choice for individuals or small teams who want complete control over their DMARC reporting data and infrastructure. MSPs might consider it if they have the resources to customize and manage individual deployments for each client, but it's not inherently multi-tenant.
For enterprise users, it might serve as a component in a larger, custom-built security stack, but it lacks the out-of-the-box features and support expected from enterprise-grade tools. SMBs typically find the self-hosting and configuration requirements too demanding, making it less ideal unless they have a highly technical founder or IT person with spare time.

Drawbacks and what to watch out for

Skysnag's main drawbacks often revolve around its initial configuration complexity for some advanced features, and its pricing model can be confusing to navigate without direct engagement. Docker DMARC Reports, conversely, presents a significant barrier to entry due to its requirement for technical expertise in self-hosting and its lack of professional support, which can lead to longer resolution times for issues.
