The verdict

Constant Contact

Best for adding SMS alongside email

Both run drag-and-drop email, automation, segmentation, and AI copy, but Constant Contact adds SMS marketing, which Moosend lacks. Premium bundles 500 messages; lower tiers add it from $10/mo. Pick it when a campaign needs text and email from one tool. It has no transactional email and no listed free plan.

Moosend

Best for low entry price plus transactional email

Moosend starts at $9/mo (up to 500 contacts), adds built-in landing pages, and offers transactional email via API and SMTP, none of which Constant Contact provides here. With 80+ integrations and a public REST API, it suits cost-led senders who also need product emails. It has no SMS and only a 30-day trial.
