Sendly - 2026 Pricing, Features, Reviews & Alternatives

Sendly is a cloud-based marketing automation platform hosted in France, designed for SMBs and marketing teams seeking a GDPR-compliant alternative to US-based platforms. Each customer receives a dedicated instance and dedicated database — no shared infrastructure — with encrypted automatic backups every six hours and guaranteed data portability via an open-source engine licensed under GPL v3. Plans range from a single-user Essentials tier (up to 10,000 contacts) to an unlimited-user Professional tier (up to 25,000 contacts), with custom enterprise and agency plans available beyond that threshold.

Sendly covers the full marketing automation stack: a drag-and-drop email editor with block-based templates and desktop/mobile preview, immediate or scheduled sending with open and click statistics, and automation workflows that combine email and SMS in a single sequence using triggers, delays, conditions, and behavior-based branching. Dynamic contact segments update automatically based on opens, clicks, site visits, tags, and custom fields. Customizable forms and pop-ups support GDPR double opt-in and deploy via code snippet or WordPress plugin. Authenticated sending domains (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) and landing pages round out the core feature set. The Professional plan adds an AI copilot that accepts natural-language prompts to generate email copy, page sections, and contact segments, with all output reviewed and validated by the user before use, as well as API access.

Sendly integrates without custom code with WooCommerce, Shopify, PrestaShop, WordPress, Zapier, HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho CRM, Dynamics 365, SugarCRM, vTiger, ConnectWise, Mailchimp, Constant Contact, Gmail, Outlook, Slack, Google Tag Manager, Amazon S3, Clearbit, FullContact, and social profiles including Facebook, Instagram, and X/Twitter. E-commerce teams, general SMB marketing departments, and agencies operating across multiple brands are the primary use cases. A 15-day free trial is available with no commitment and no charge until the trial period ends.
