All of our company's websites utilize Mailgun for email marketing purposes. We've even implemented Mailgun for our customers and strongly suggest it. Email delivery problems have been solved thanks to Mailgun. There is no need for us to use the e-mail server provided by [our hosting server]. Email delivery was a major problem for some of our customers who were hosted with well-known shared hosting providers like GoDaddy, Bluehost, etc. One of Mailgun's best features is that messages can be monitored in real-time, and if they fail to send for any reason, the specific cause is shown in the log.
Sending an email to someone takes no time at all, and you can even set up a queue for thousands of messages. If you need to contact a large group of people with one message, this is a great feature to have (e.g., newsletter subscribers, marketing emails to clients, etc.). With its help, your emails are more likely to reach their intended recipients and are less likely to end up in the spam or junk folders. The Mailgun reports and logs feature is excellent. If an email couldn't be delivered successfully, what are the exact reasons why? Sometimes, if we can determine the cause, we can work to fix the problem.
The WordPress plugin for Mailgun could use some work. It needs to have more options made available to users. Our email volume isn't particularly large, but we'd still like to have a dedicated IP address for our outgoing mail. A dedicated IP's high price tag is unjustifiable. fixing the problems that have arisen with sending emails to Hotmail or Outlook.com. Deliveries are made, but the junk/spam folder is where most emails end up.

sub-accounts management (before getting suspended for no reason)
Mailgun disables your account after 6 months working on integrating with it ; out of nowhere, for no reason. + they keep billing you every month (over 600$ at this stage) even though your subscription mentions that you're at 0$/month. When you're trying to reach out to the support, they close our tickets without even answering, ghosting. Absolutely WORST product ever used and support team faced, it's absolutely garbage. This goes without saying that Mailgun way of coding emails is terrible, their delivrability is one of the worst of the market. Do yourself a favor, go to sendgrid. Mailgun SUCKS.
