AWeber
Email marketing with a free plan that lasts
AWeber has been sending newsletters since before most of its competitors existed, and it shows in both directions: the deliverability is dependable and the interface is dated. The free plan runs to 500 subscribers with automations included, which is more than most rivals give away. Its ecommerce feature charges a small percentage of each sale on the cheaper plans.
Our note
MailerLite's free plan holds twice the subscribers. AWeber's holds half as many with the automations switched on, so it suits a list that needs sequences before it needs size. The editor is the part that shows its age.

Mailmodo
Emails a reader can fill in without leaving
Mailmodo sends interactive email: a form, a poll or a booking widget renders inside the message and submits from there, so a survey does not need a landing page and a click. Where a mail client refuses that, it falls back to an ordinary email with a link. Campaigns, journeys and the interactive blocks sit in one builder. The interactive part is the whole reason to pay, so it is worth checking whether the audience reads mail somewhere that supports it before committing.
