I have a love-hate relationship with email templates. On one hand, email development reminds me of the late 90s and early 2000s, where tabular layouts and a toolbox of hacks were a way of life. It’s fun to reminisce, knowing how far we’ve come. On the other hand… ugh, email development.
For a recent project with en email component I planned to fire up a month of my on-again off-again Litmus.com subscription for testing. Unfortunately, their new enterprise-focused pricing model put a quick stop to that. Call to learn about pricing? No thanks.
Enter Testi@.
My requirements for an email testing platform aren’t complex:
- tests against all popular email clients
- has generous testing limits
- has sharable test results
- has an editor/previewer UI
- offers some level of feedback on potential issues in code
Testi@ checks all the boxes, and it’s tough to beat their $16/mo pricing. I may still kick the tires of Email on Acid at some point. But, for now, I’m all set.
