FAQ
Do I need technical knowledge to use Zenda?

No, you don’t need any technical background.

Zenda is designed to make advanced email infrastructure easy to use. We guide you through setup, domain verification and your first campaign.

Most users are ready to send emails within a few days.

You get the power of a technical solution — without the complexity.

Why is Zenda cheaper than other email platforms?

Traditional email marketing platforms charge high monthly fees because they manage the entire infrastructure for you.

With Zenda, emails are sent через AWS SES — one of the most cost-efficient email services in the world.

This means you only pay for what you actually send, without expensive SaaS margins.

In most cases, businesses reduce their email costs by several times.

What is AWS SES and why does Zenda use it?

Amazon SES (Simple Email Service) is a reliable and scalable email sending service used by companies worldwide.

Zenda uses AWS SES as its sending engine, giving you all the benefits of enterprise-grade email infrastructure — without the complexity.

Unlike traditional SaaS platforms, your emails are sent from your own infrastructure. This means lower costs, better deliverability and full control over your data.

To get started, you only need:

  • a domain
  • a basic website or landing page

AWS performs a quick verification process (usually 1–3 days) to ensure quality and prevent spam.

Zenda makes this process simple — we guide you step by step, so you can start sending campaigns without technical headaches.

Is Zenda GDPR compliant and where is my data stored?

Yes — Zenda is designed with GDPR compliance in mind.

Unlike traditional SaaS email platforms, your data is stored on your own server. This means no third-party has direct access to your customer data.

You stay in full control of:

  • where your data is stored
  • who has access to it
  • how it is processed

For email delivery, Zenda uses AWS SES, where you can choose to operate within the European Union (for example, Frankfurt region).

This gives you a combination of full control and enterprise-level infrastructure — without compromising GDPR requirements.

Can I migrate from Mailchimp or other tools?

Yes — migrating to Zenda is simple.

You can import your contacts via CSV or migrate from platforms like Mailchimp, including email templates.

We also offer guidance during migration to make the transition smooth.

You won’t lose your data — you simply gain more control over it.

Are there any limits on sending emails?

Zenda does not impose artificial limits on the number of emails you can send.

You are not restricted by pricing tiers, contact limits or monthly caps — unlike many traditional SaaS platforms.

The only limits come from AWS SES, which are based on your account reputation and can be increased over time.

Most accounts start with a certain sending quota and grow as your sending history builds.

In practice, this means you can scale your email sending without switching plans or paying more per contact.

Do you set up the server for me?

Yes — we handle the full setup for you.

We create your server (for example on Hetzner or AWS), install Zenda and configure everything needed to start sending emails.

Once the setup is complete, the server is fully transferred to you. You own the infrastructure and keep full control over your data.

No complex setup, no lock-in — just a working system ready to use.
