Super curious if you're evaluating options what you're finding on the market we (hedra.com) are evaluating options right now and the cost is astronomical when you go above 500,000 contacts. We're exploring Brevo (FKA sendinblue which allows unlimited contacts) vs. Salesforce.

I'm using this just for transactional emails. I have another solution for marketing emails.

I was using SendGrid's WYSIWYG templates for many emails, but I'm re-doing them in my own code so that I can more easily change providers in the future. I'll just need the ability to send HTML emails.

I'm trying out MailTrap.

If you are looking for just the visual email template builder part, check out EmailBuilder.js (https://github.com/usewaypoint/email-builder-js) - it's a free and open-source builder that also has a hosted playground.

I'm staying away from visual builders. I don't want to get locked into another solution.
