Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
June
- The pricing page lists a single all-in-one plan with no price, no minimum and no named cost driver
- There is no startup plan; the vendor states June is a fit for companies with at least $1M of ARR
- Setup fees are charged separately and the vendor states they vary based on implementation complexity
- The vendor states June is a poor fit for products with a large user base but low revenue per user
Postscript
- Carrier pass-through fees are billed on top of the per-message rate, roughly $0.00418 per SMS and $0.00841 per MMS in the United States, and are routinely missing from the cost comparisons buyers build.
- The cheapest per-message rates require the $500 a month plan, so a small sender pays more than double the headline low rate per text.
- The $0 Starter plan carries a $49 minimum monthly spend, so it is not a free tier and quiet months still generate a bill.
- US SMS marketing carries real legal exposure under consent, quiet hours and carrier registration rules, and the compliance obligation sits with the merchant, not the platform.
- It is SMS and MMS only, so email, push and on-site messaging live in a separate tool and audience suppression between the two has to be managed across systems.
