Omnisend

Email and SMS marketing automation built for online stores

Omnisend is an email marketing tool for E-commerce and Small businesses, offered as freemium ($16/mo). Founded in 2014. Popular alternatives include TopMessage, Klaviyo, Segmentify.

About Omnisend

Omnisend is an email and SMS marketing platform for e-commerce brands. It started in 2014 in Lithuania as Soundest, a simple email tool for online stores, and was renamed Omnisend in 2017 as it added SMS and other channels. The company is headquartered in Vilnius with offices in Kaunas and Charleston, South Carolina, and is led by co-founder and CEO Rytis Lauris. Its core job is turning store data into automated campaigns that recover carts and drive repeat purchases.

Omnisend combines a drag-and-drop email builder with product blocks, prebuilt automations for welcome, abandoned cart, browse abandonment and post-purchase flows, SMS, web push, signup forms and popups, segmentation on shopping behavior, and revenue reporting. The free plan covers 250 contacts and 500 emails a month. Standard is priced by contact count from 500 contacts, while Pro adds unlimited email, advanced AI tools such as product recommendations and send-time optimization, and SMS credits equal to the monthly bill.

Omnisend fits Shopify, WooCommerce and BigCommerce stores that want strong e-commerce automation at a lower price than Klaviyo. Klaviyo has deeper data, predictive analytics and a bigger partner ecosystem; Mailchimp and Brevo are more general and weaker on store-specific flows. Omnisend is less suited to B2B or content newsletters.

Buying tip: Omnisend shows no annual plan, but paying three months upfront cuts the price by 30%. On Pro the bundled SMS credits make it a better deal than Standard plus SMS for stores that text customers regularly.
