The verdict

AWeber logo AWeber
Best for the lowest paid entry price

AWeber's paid plans start at $15/mo for 500 contacts, below GetResponse's $19/mo Starter (1,000 contacts). Both bill by contacts and cover drag-and-drop building, automation, segmentation, and ecommerce. The tradeoff: no free tier, and no SMS or transactional email, both of which GetResponse offers.

GetResponse logo GetResponse
Best for a free tier plus SMS and transactional

GetResponse has a free plan for up to 500 contacts (2,500 newsletters/mo), where AWeber has none. It also adds SMS marketing and transactional email, neither of which AWeber offers. Its paid plans start higher ($19/mo for 1,000 contacts vs AWeber's $15 for 500), so it costs more to enter on a paid plan.
