Why teams switch from SendGrid
The core issue with SendGrid for India is the pricing model: it's USD-based, forces you to pay for stored contacts, and charges a significant markup over raw AWS SES rates. Indian startups and ecommerce teams consistently report SendGrid as one of their highest marketing infrastructure costs.
THE VERDICT
SendGrid is a powerful platform used by large enterprises - but for Indian businesses sending high-volume bulk email, the cost is prohibitive. At ₹82 per 1,000 emails, SendGrid charges 7.4x more than LoomiMail for identical delivery infrastructure. To make matters worse, SendGrid rigorously limits how many contacts you can store before bumping your pricing tier. LoomiMail is the smarter choice for any India-focused business prioritising cost efficiency, with absolutely zero contact storage limits.
