Nodemailer vs Postmark: What are the differences?
Developers describe Nodemailer as "A module for Node.js applications to allow email sending". It is a single module with zero dependencies – code is easily auditable. The email delivery is Secure using TLS/STARTTLS. You can use HTML content, as well as plain text alternative. On the other hand, Postmark is detailed as "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.
Nodemailer and Postmark can be categorized as "Transactional Email" tools.
According to the StackShare community, Postmark has a broader approval, being mentioned in 90 company stacks & 64 developers stacks; compared to Nodemailer, which is listed in 4 company stacks and 9 developer stacks.
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.
