📝 About Brevo
Brevo, formerly Sendinblue, took a different pricing idea seriously: charge for emails sent, not contacts stored. If you have a large list you email sparingly, that difference saves serious money — and it’s why agencies and marketplaces keep it in their stack.
The suite spans the whole retention stack: email campaigns, SMS and WhatsApp, live chat, meeting scheduling, and a lightweight CRM that ties contacts to deals. Transactional email — receipts, password resets — runs on the same infrastructure with strong deliverability.
It’s less polished than single-purpose specialists in each channel. For teams that want one affordable platform instead of four subscriptions, Brevo is the practical consolidation play.
