    BriteVerify does a great job preventing disposable and junk leads from coming into Salesforce which saves sales reps time. I like the fact that you can see on the layout if an email is good or not. I don't believe this is a downfall on BriteVerify but I wish Accept All emails would still return valid or not valid so you could see if someone is still with the company or not.

    Every new or established brand should be using Everest. It doesn't matter what you're trying to say in your emails—if they're not reaching the inbox, no one is listening or reading. Everest gives you the insight you need to understand your inbox placement, reputation and so much more.

    Pros
    Validity
    • It is a quick API call effort that is easy to implement with only 4 responses.
    • There is the ability to upload a list and API calls, so that makes it easy to use.
    • Easy to download the list of Invalids in multiple file formats.

    • Individualized attention. They really dug in to understand our products and services.
    • Easy-to-understand training and actionable items that you can sustain over a long period of time.
    • They're embedded in our instance of Exact Target, so I'm able to review the entire email program and don't have to open up a separate tool to gather this information.

    Cons
    Validity
    • Occasionally, we'll need to test like 1 or 2 records and instead of importing a list of 2 records, it would be nice to have a landing page to enter 1 address and run it to get on-screen messaging on results.
    • It would be nice to see ECOA (email change of address) data on the report too for invalid email addresses.

    • Some domain summary data inconsistent with seedlist detail
    • UI feels a little dated
    • Reporting options are limited
    • As part of the SFMC integration, Return Path support issues and question go through Salesforce, not Return Path
    • Inbox Preview rendering could be more robust and extensive
    • Would like to see Dark Mode previewing rendering

    We have two separate areas for using Return Path. Our web ecommerce area that is using only transactional emails and a marketing email program that is partnered on the backend with Return Path. I see Return Path continuing to be utilized with our marketing emails, but over time I see less need for our transactional emails to maintain Return Path components.

    I find it fairly easy to use, though the interface is a bit clunky and I may be missing some revolutionary use because it's lost in the clutter.

    Absolutely fantastic support. It runs circles around the competition. They regularly reach out and chat, even if it's just to see if there's any issues we need to discuss. They clearly want the business and don't forget you once you sign the contract which is an issue with other similar services.

    I joined my company after the implementation was nearly complete. We used the Return Path tool as we slowly increased our send volume in Marketing Cloud to monitor IP reputation and inbox placement.

    I've used a few in the past that weren't on the list to be mentioned in addition to NeverBounce. FreshAddress is a tool I use the 2nd most after BriteVerify. I have evaluated Webbula to and they have a unique offering.

    Like I said before, Return Path is really the budget bundle. You get a lot of service for how much you pay. Since I am currently at an early stage startup, we could not afford Litmus, so having Return Path is crucial. The partnership with Salesforce also allowed us to get it at pretty low cost.

    Return on Investment
    Validity
    • It has provided a very good return on investment when it comes to improvements in email deliverability and limiting spam complaints.
    • It has allowed us to meet our objectives by removing contacts who are invalid and suspicious contacts (i.e. signed up for our service and provided a fake email address).
    • It has allowed us to improve our overall bounce rates and delivery rates across our bulk mail sending to prospective customers.

    • It has helped identify inbox issues and thus helping our clients reach more inboxes.
    • They have negatively impacted client relations on numerous occasions. They have reached out and told clients they are having issues or need certain products when they are already our clients and we are proving solutions for them.
    • They provide solid customer support when you create a support ticket. They are usually very quick to respond and give you an answer.
