Mandrill vs. Amazon SES

For sending emails. I use this primarily for password resets in this application.

We started off with AWS SES, but found it to be lacking in diagnostics and reporting. Mandrill is a quantum leap forward in this regard. Has some other really neat features carried over from MailChimp (templating).

Mandrill helps me to send emails to clients fastly, also is trackable, that's cool.

All my transactional emails.

Email notifications and in app emails

MailChimp integration. When we move off of MailChimp entirely, it’ll be nice and smooth. We can keep our metrics, lists, templates. None of that is particularly difficult to grab, but makes the choice here clearer. Also, I think you get some cool discounts if you use Mandrill.

Email sending for sign-up and other email notifications

Sending transactional emails, such as reminders, contact form notifications, confirmations …etc.

Our internal emails (such as exception notifications) are sent via Amazon SES, since it's cheaper than using Sendgrid. We also use Amazon SES as a fallback in case we have deliverability issues with Sendgrid.

SES is our Email gateway

It is used for outbound emails.

Some e-mail communication needs a independent provider, for these purposes we use SES.
