    Should you use it:

    This is the cheapest uncapped email marketing service you are going to find. However, it lacks a drag and drop builder and other features that are usually standard. There also is the issue with deliverability. Sending regular email campaigns from a shared hosting environment greatly increases your chances of being marked as spam, because the IP address is shared with hundreds of other sites. One bad egg ruins the omelet for everyone.
