How to choose

Inframail fits teams that already run a sequencer and only need inboxes. If that is still you, the question is which missing piece bothers you most, and what you pay for it. For warm-up paid for inside the inbox price, MailDeck and Outreach2day confirm it. For Google Workspace inboxes next to Microsoft 365, look at MailOptimal, MailDeck, Icemail, Zapmail, Hypertide or ScaledMail. To send from the same account, MailOptimal, Outreach2day and SkySenders confirm a built-in sequencer. On total cost, every tool here comes in below Inframail's $244 for a 30-inbox setup. Outreach2day is lowest at $75 a month with warm-up and sending included, but it offers neither Google nor Microsoft inboxes and no trial. To keep both dedicated IPs and a trial, MailOptimal and SkySenders confirm them.

Can I move Inframail inboxes into another sequencer?
