# SimpleDMARC vs Dmarcian

Dmarcian is one of the oldest DMARC platforms on the market — but age doesn't always mean better. See how SimpleDMARC compares on features, price, and ease of use.

## Why teams switch from Dmarcian

Dmarcian was built for a world where DMARC was a niche concern for large enterprises with dedicated security teams. That era is over. Today, every business sending email — from five-person startups to mid-market companies — needs DMARC enforcement, and they need it to be straightforward.

The most common complaints from Dmarcian customers who switch to SimpleDMARC come down to three things: the onboarding process requires a manual sales call, the interface hasn't kept pace with modern UX expectations, and there's no self-service path to get started quickly. SimpleDMARC was designed from day one to fix all three.

SimpleDMARC also covers the full email authentication stack — DMARC, SPF, DKIM, BIMI, and MTA-STS — in a single platform. Dmarcian focuses primarily on DMARC reporting and leaves BIMI and MTA-STS management to other tools or manual DNS work.

## Where SimpleDMARC pulls ahead

### Self-service from day one

SimpleDMARC lets you sign up, connect your domain, and start seeing DMARC report data within minutes — no demo call, no waiting for a sales rep to provision your account. Dmarcian historically requires a sales conversation before you can begin, adding days or weeks of lag before your protection is active.

### Full email authentication stack

DMARC is only one part of email authentication. SimpleDMARC also manages hosted SPF flattening (to solve the 10-lookup DNS limit), DKIM key rotation, BIMI logo verification, and MTA-STS policy hosting — all from a single dashboard. With Dmarcian, BIMI and MTA-STS require separate tooling.

### Transparent pricing

SimpleDMARC publishes its pricing publicly and offers a 14-day free trial with no credit card required. Dmarcian requires a sales conversation to get pricing information, which creates friction for smaller teams and makes budget approval harder to plan.

### Unlimited seats, flat pricing

SimpleDMARC plans include unlimited users at every tier. Whether you have one person managing email security or a team of ten collaborating across domains, the price doesn't change. Dmarcian charges per-seat at higher tiers, which adds up fast for growing teams.
