Full Disclosure

We are Pingram, so of course, we are going to toot our own horns - boop boop. We’ve tried our best to stay as objective as possible in this comparison. If you notice an inaccuracy, let us know, and we will fix it.

TLDR

Pingram:

Better for small to medium-sized B2B SaaS companies that want to move fast with their notification project and expect reliable customer support.

Courier:

Better for Enterprise companies that require complex workflow for a nuanced delivery system.

Defining Features

Pingram includes an email service and exposes more email-related capabilities. It also includes an SMS service to send notifications to any country without Twilio. So overall, it’s much faster and easier to set up.

Courier acts as a router around your delivery services like SendGrid. So you have to set up your own 3rd-parties. However, Courier has a strong notification workflow builder and supports connecting more channels.

Reliability

Both Pingram and Courier offer a stable service. However, Pingram has better support, SLAs and additional data centers.

Pricing

Pingram offers a clearer pricing model without hidden fees and caps. Many of Courier’s features seem locked behind the Enterprise tier.
