I've worked with a multitude of bulk email programs over the past 6 years and they all have their pros and cons. There didn't seem to be one that could do it all for me and some are so convoluted I just never got started or I spent loads of hours setting them up only to find out I needed to buy something before I could send 1000's of emails.
Maian Responder is self-hosted, feature packed yet simple to use and once you have installed and setup the system (which is very easy) you can fire away emails without worrying about escalating costs or email limits. Obviously, managing your own reputation carefully is a prerequisite but any legitimate email sender will understand this and not expect software to compensate for reckless email spamming.
Used in conjunction with Amazon's SES as your SMTP you can happily send 2000 emails a day (for FREE) without worrying about a thing.
If you are sick of hunting for a decent self-hosted option, buy Maian Responder and start marketing instead of cobbling together bad solutions.
Easy to use, this is exactly what ionCube users have been missing, thank you
I would like to say that I tried and tested many, many shopping cart scripts before trying yours and found most over priced and loaded with items that would only suit a major store, where as your cart does most of the things the others do, without the clutter and in some cases your cart does a lot more.
What I really like about it is it clean to the point and does exactly what I require.
I just bought second license in a week! This script is very easy to use, and if you are a programmer, you can customize it in so many ways. I am very pleased with the auto generated code that you can copy and paste easily on your product site. The best thing that I've not seen in other script is, you can create multiple product in the script and use the code in multiple site. Keep up the good work and I hope I will see some great updates soon.
1) All programs out there charge $10 - per 250 contacts
2) All programs out there will only send X (usually 1000) emails a day
3) All programs are a pain in the a** to set up and are hard as hell to configure and test.
With your program I can have unlimited accounts, can send up to 5000 emails a day (I figured out I can use my godaddy vps server email that allows 5000 emails a day and remove my mailjet membership and it works flawlessly!), Your program is simple to use and understand, and I can do it all for only $30 a month!
I am new to online marketing but this is truly going to help me. This is why I am purchasing your software, it is amazing thank you so much for creating such great software!
I would firstly like to thank you on the time and effort spent on this product. I think it is awesome.
Just downloaded the free support ticket program and have immediately bought the paid version. This program is simple to install and fantastic to use. Just wanted to say thankyou to you. I had previously tried a few other programs which I ended up throwing away as being too complicated or a drastic overkill.
Yours is so simple and does everything needed to run my business online.
We've looked at using the big brand providers of email processing before but you notice their free offerings don't include the features you want and the paid options are too expensive for companies dipping their toes into the water of marketing in this way.
We wanted the ability to auto schedule an email to go out a week or so after the initial sign up and the Maian Responder does it for us. Its configurable enough for us to set it up to use a verified, DKIM enabled, SPF enabled, google SMTP service so we have the best hopes of getting the mail to it's intended recipient and our potential customers aren't confused about who is sending it, because it's coming from us, not a third party domain sending on behalf of us.
The free service enabled us to confirm it would work for us but we then had no hesitation in paying the low cost to help Maian develop the software further.
Your support script has been a complete life saver for me, handling 100's of tickets in a completely professional way.
I have been using both Maian Event and Maian Cart for a long time now and they both works like a charm. The best things with Maian Media is the outstanding service that is given to the user of the programs. If you want to change a little bit of code to fit your special needs, or having some questions about setting the program up, they are always there to help you out! Highly recommended!
