Simple, published tiers based only on list size - every plan includes the full PDQ feature set.
Build newsletters, announcements and sequences using the editor or your own HTML. Design once, reuse as often as you need.
Organise your audience into lists and segments based on attributes or behaviour, and keep your data under your control.
