Postmark vs Axigen: What are the differences?
What is Postmark? Email delivery for web apps - done right. Postmark removes the headaches of delivering and parsing transactional email for webapps with minimal setup time and zero maintenance.
What is Axigen? Mail server, calendaring & collaboration. It is a fully self developed solution, truly innovative in several respects, particularly scalable and configurable. This messaging solution offers the entire range of mail services — SMTP, POP3, IMAP, WebMail (Desktop and Mobile versions) — includes List server, Logging, Reporting, and FTP Backup modules and provides various, flexible administration options (including a central Web administration interface — WebAdmin).
Postmark and Axigen belong to "Transactional Email" category of the tech stack.
Some of the features offered by Postmark are:
- Create a new virtual server- Instant access to our infrastructure, no waiting required. Create as many servers as you want, for each of your web applications and environments.
- Drop code into your app- Swap in our SMTP endpoint, or get started with our APIs using one of our send API libraries for Ruby, Rails, .NET, Python, PHP, and more.
- Send emails and track delivery- A beautiful interface to monitor volume, bounces, spam complaints, and send activity. View full email content to troubleshoot issues.
On the other hand, Axigen provides the following key features:
- Calendaring
- Collaboration
- Fully customizable
While building our authentication system, we originally picked Mailgun. However, emails took minutes to arrive and some of them didn't get delivered - or got delivered to spam.
We started looking for a new provider, and settled on Postmark. We love that they track time-to-inbox, it makes me feel they really care about going above and beyond to provide a good service.
