We Wanted to Build a Plugin That Fits Right In!

Our plugins offer functionalities ranging from sending form submission-related emails to orchestrating email campaigns inside WordPress. Therefore, we needed an SMTP plugin that meets our needs. Check out our plugins to learn why we needed FluentSMTP so badly!

Other Plugins Weren’t Capable Enough

Our plugins offer various advanced features beyond the capabilities of regular SMTP plugins. Other plugins couldn’t handle the requirements. To give you an idea, here’s what our plugins do:

  • Sending large volume of marketing emails from WordPress
  • Separate marketing emails from traditional WordPress
  • A fallback email in case the existing service stops working
  • Ability to check all email logs without paying for it

Other Plugins Required ‘Additional Purchases

While many SMTP solutions were available, none of them came with features our users needed. On top of that, most plugins require additional payments for features. Wouldn’t look great if your deal comes with unfair additional purchases, no?

How is FluentSMTP Any Different?

FluentSMTP can send a large volume of emails without going to spam. You can smartly route your emails, set up fallback connections, and much more for free!

We Made a Promise

In 2020, we released FluentCRM. A plugin that offers complete email marketing automation capabilities within WordPress. The plugins required accurate email deliverability and additional email sending capabilities. So we promised to build a plugin that can send emails to larger email lists.

We Believe Email Should be a Core Feature of WordPress

A website isn’t just a few pages on the web, they’re also how businesses communicate with their audience. This is why we believe email should be a core feature of WordPress. Though we released FluentSMTP, we’d be happy to see it working without needing any plugin!

amgill's review on fluentsmtp
Switching all my client sites over to this one! @amgill

Have been using “the other” SMTP plugin for years and all of a sudden it stopped delivering emails. Moved to Fluent and quickly got emails working again with no issues. Thank you. I am switching all my client sites over to this one!

omariusa's review on fluentsmtp
This plugin is a godsend! @omariusa

I used to work with another SMTP plugin that did not give free access to the logs, It was pretty much useless since not having access to the logs made it very hard to troubleshoot tricky issues during production. Thank you!
