DPC review for Brevo(PushOwl):Email,Push,SMS

May 14, 2025

After 5 years of using Klaviyo and MailerLite without issues, I decided to switch to Brevo for a cheaper option. After signing up, I was immediately contacted and told to request a refund and instead register via PushOwl. That was already a confusing start. After sending our first email campaign through Brevo, our account was immediately suspended due to bounce rate concerns. In all our years using Klaviyo and MailerLite, this had never happened - not once. I’m frustrated that I'm spending time and money jumping through hoops to meet the standards of what is, the cheapest and lowest rated email service of the 3. Brevo feels like a watered-down, knock off of Klaviyo without the features or reliability. While I do appreciate the pay-per-email pricing model, it comes at the cost of needless hurdles. Unless price is your only concern, I would not recommend Brevo. It may be an option for startups on a tight budget, but be prepared for added work and limitations. This experience has only motivated me to grow my business so I can afford to return to Klaviyo.
