Brevo does everything we verified about Omnisend for $49 a month less at 20,000 emails against Omnisend at 5,000 contacts, $32 against $81. It is a price cut rather than an upgrade: on the two features checked against the vendors’ own pricing pages the two are level. The trade: Omnisend is built for a store's email and Brevo is not, so this is a swap with a cost.
Why people look for an alternative
Billing counts non-subscribers as well as subscribers, so a store with a big customer base pays for people it never emails, and Standard caps sends at 12 per contact.
It runs $81 a month at 5,000 contacts with the add-ons it forces on you included. 10 of the 11 alternatives to Omnisend cost less than that.

How to read the feature lines
Two features were checked against each vendor's own pricing page: a price that does not move with the list and a free plan. Those are the ones written above as does and does not. The other twelve are read out of each vendor's own pricing page, so an absence there means we did not find it listed, not that the product lacks it, and those lines say lists and does not list instead. How all of this gets checked.
Or let it pick for you
This page compares everything to Omnisend. The shortlist asks 6 questions
about what you send and how big your list is, and gives you four picks priced at your own list size, which is a better
question than “what is like the one I already have”.
