Omnisend aims at the same store owners as Klaviyo but with a lower entry price and simpler plans. The free tier gives 250 contacts, 500 emails and 500 web push notifications a month, and Standard lists $48 for the first three months at 500 contacts with 6,000 monthly emails and unlimited web push. The automation builder includes ready workflows for welcome, cart recovery, product abandonment and post-purchase, and it lets you mix email, SMS and push in one sequence with split paths and conditions. Support is a real differentiator: Omnisend states that 24/7 live chat and email support is available on every plan, including free, and it migrates contacts and segments for you. The limits sit in the middle tier. SMS requires Pro, and AI product recommendations and personalized send times are add-ons from $5 a month on Standard. For a store under a few thousand contacts, it covers the core flows at a modest cost.
