Open-source Mailmodo alternatives

Mautic is open-source marketing automation software. It lets businesses and organizations build integrated marketing campaigns, including email marketing, while keeping control of their own data. The project is supported by a worldwide community of contributors and presents privacy and extensibility as core goals.

The README highlights several advantages over conventional hosted tools: it is free to use, you can run it on your own infrastructure with your own database, there is no vendor lock-in, integrations can be built as needed, and both the frontend and backend are customizable. It also describes multi-channel marketing without extra cost and unlimited segmentation and automation.

Mautic is written in PHP. It can be downloaded and self-hosted, or you can request a trial of a hosted option, and community channels and a blog share news, releases and strategy. Its license is stated in the repository. It suits marketing teams that want automation without relying entirely on a third-party SaaS provider.

Plunk is an open-source email platform that combines transactional email, marketing campaigns and workflow automation in a single product. Developers can send messages from an API with templates and variable substitution, or use Plunk as an SMTP relay so that existing tools and frameworks can send through it.

Marketing features include campaigns for newsletters and product updates, dynamic segments, and contact management with custom fields and activity history. Workflows add triggers, delays and conditional logic, analytics track opens, clicks and bounces, custom domains are verified with DKIM and SPF, and inbound emails can be received and routed with custom rules.

Plunk is positioned as an open-source, self-hosted alternative to services such as SendGrid, Resend and Mailgun. It is licensed under AGPL-3.0, written in TypeScript, and can be deployed from an official Docker image following the project's documentation. The README cites a rate of $0.001 per email with no contact limits.

Notifuse is a modern, self-hosted emailing platform for sending newsletters and transactional email at a fraction of the cost of hosted services. It is built with Go and React and presented as an open-source alternative to Mailchimp, Brevo, Mailjet, Listmonk, MailerLite, and Klaviyo. The input lists its license only as other.

Email marketing features include a drag-and-drop visual builder with MJML components and live preview, campaign scheduling, A/B testing of subject lines, content, and send times, list segmentation, and contact profiles with custom fields. Automations use a visual canvas with nodes for delays, emails, branches, filters, list changes, A/B tests, and webhooks, and Liquid templating personalizes messages. Messages are sent through seven providers, with topics naming Amazon SES, Mailgun, Postmark, and SendGrid.

For people who prefer not to run it themselves, Notifuse Cloud offers managed hosting, which the README says starts at 16 dollars per month, and a live demo is available. It suits marketers and developers who want lower costs and control over subscriber data.
