Mixmax vs QuickMail: Cold Email Platform Comparison
Compare Mixmax and QuickMail side by side. See pricing, features, and integrations to choose the right cold email platform for your needs.
QuickMail charges nothing per seat and states so on its pricing page, metering uploaded contacts and emails instead: $99 a month buys 25,000 contacts and 100,000 emails for unlimited users. Mixmax charges per seat and caps sequence recipients at 1,500 a month per seat.
Key takeaways
- QuickMail's pricing page states "We don't charge per seat", with unlimited users, email senders and LinkedIn accounts on all three tiers.
- QuickMail meters uploaded contacts and emails sent: 1,000 and 5,000 on Starter, 25,000 and 100,000 on Growth, 100,000 and 500,000 on Agency.
- Mixmax caps sequence recipients at 1,500 a month per seat, so five seats reach 7,500 people a month rather than pooling a larger number.
- QuickMail bundles auto warm-up, inbox rotation and blacklist monitoring; Mixmax sells dialer, SMS and local presence as add-ons.

Mixmax vs QuickMail: Cold Email Platform Comparison
QuickMail's pricing page states it in one line: "We don't charge per seat. You may add as many team members as needed at no additional cost." Mixmax charges per seat and caps sequence recipients at 1,500 a month per seat. For any team above two people, that single difference outweighs every feature comparison between them.
The Short Answer
Pick QuickMail when several people share one outbound operation and volume matters. Pick Mixmax when each rep works their own small named list from inside Gmail and books meetings from the thread.
The meters are different, not just the prices. QuickMail rations uploaded contacts and emails sent and charges nothing for users, mailboxes or LinkedIn accounts. Mixmax rations sequence recipients per seat and charges for each seat.
What Mixmax And QuickMail Actually Are
Mixmax is a sales engagement platform for Gmail, sold as named Copilots: $29 a seat billed annually for Inbox or Meeting Copilot, $49 for Engagement Copilot and $89 for Mixmax Suite, with monthly rates of $34, $34, $65 and $105. Sequence recipients cap at 1,500 a month per seat.
QuickMail is a cold outreach platform priced in three flat tiers on its pricing page: Starter $49 a month with 1,000 uploaded contacts and 5,000 emails, Growth $99 with 25,000 contacts and 100,000 emails, Agency $299 with 100,000 contacts and 500,000 emails. Unlimited email senders, LinkedIn accounts and users on all three.
QuickMail also bundles the deliverability layer rather than selling it: auto warm-up through MailFlow, inbox rotation and blacklist monitoring are on the list rather than in an add-on column. Mixmax sells dialer, SMS, international dialer and local presence as add-ons on every tier.

Mixmax Pricing
| Plan | Per user, billed annually | Per user, monthly | Sequence recipients |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0/mo | $0/mo | 50 / month |
| Inbox Copilot | $29/mo | $34/mo | 100 / month |
| Meeting Copilot | $29/mo | $34/mo | 100 / month |
| Engagement Copilot | $49/mo | $65/mo | 1,500 / month |
| Mixmax Suite | $89/mo | $105/mo | 1,500 / month |
| Mixmax for Teams | Custom | Custom | 3,000 / month |
Mixmax sells four named Copilots rather than a single ladder, and the last column is the one that decides whether it fits cold outbound at all. The sequence recipient cap is 1,500 a month per seat on both paid tiers that carry sequences, and 3,000 on the custom team plan. Dialer, SMS, international dialer and local presence are add-ons on every tier.

QuickMail Pricing
| Plan | Per month | Uploaded contacts | Emails sent per month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter Plan | $49/mo | 1,000 | 5,000 |
| Growth Plan | $99/mo | 25,000 | 100,000 |
| Agency Plan | $299/mo | 100,000 | 500,000 |
QuickMail's page states the thing that changes the arithmetic against every per-seat competitor: "We don't charge per seat. You may add as many team members as needed at no additional cost." Email senders, LinkedIn accounts and users are unlimited on all three plans, and the meter is contacts uploaded and emails sent. Agency includes 2 workspaces with extras at $49 each.

What five people cost on each
Here is an invented but arithmetically honest example from each vendor's own published units. It is illustrative only and nothing in it comes from a customer.
Five people running one outbound operation, 20,000 contacts, roughly 60,000 emails a month. On QuickMail that is the Growth plan at $99 a month, full stop: 25,000 uploaded contacts, 100,000 emails a month, unlimited users, unlimited senders. Five people cost the same as one.
On Mixmax the same job does not fit at any price a comparison would quote. Five Mixmax Suite seats billed annually is 5 at $89, so $445 a month, and the total sequence recipient allowance is 5 times 1,500, which is 7,500 a month rather than 20,000. The gap is not money, it is the meter.
Invert the example and Mixmax wins. One rep, 400 named accounts, meetings booked from the thread, recordings and summaries wanted: that is $89 a month for a workspace QuickMail does not attempt to be, and QuickMail's $49 buys sending capacity the rep does not need.
Who Should Pick Which
Pick QuickMail when the shape is a shared outbound operation. Unlimited users means an SDR, a manager and a contractor can all work the same campaigns without a purchase order, and unlimited senders plus inbox rotation is what cold volume actually requires.
Pick Mixmax when each rep is their own operation. The scheduling, recording and summarising is the product, and the sequence is a way to start conversations rather than the machine itself.
Agencies should look at QuickMail's Agency plan specifically: two workspaces included and extras at $49 each is a per-client structure that Mixmax has no equivalent for.
- Yes: More than two people will touch the campaigns
- Yes: You need more than 1,500 recipients a month per person
- Yes: You want inbox rotation and warm-up included
- No: Meetings are booked and summarised from the inbox
- No: Gmail is the interface your reps insist on
- Yes: You run campaigns for multiple client workspaces

QuickMail's list is a deliverability stack: inbox rotation, auto warm-up, blacklist monitoring and a Google-approved sending API on the top tier. Those four exist because cold volume damages mailboxes and QuickMail is built for cold volume. Mixmax's list is a workspace: scheduling, conversation intelligence, inbox categorisation, CRM auto-sync. Unlimited team members appears on QuickMail's list as a feature, which is unusual and is exactly the point.
Integration Ecosystem
Mixmax connects with: Gmail, Google Workspace, Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Slack, Zoom, Calendly, Zapier.
QuickMail connects with: HubSpot, Pipedrive, Zapier, Make, Slack, Gmail, Outlook, Google Sheets.
Both lists carry: Gmail, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Slack, Zapier.
QuickMail reaches HubSpot, Pipedrive, Zapier, Make, Slack, Gmail, Outlook and Google Sheets, which is a sending tool's stack: a CRM to push to, a sheet to pull from and automation glue. Mixmax reaches Salesforce, HubSpot and Pipedrive alongside Gmail, Slack, Zoom, Calendly and Zapier, which is a workspace's stack. Notably QuickMail carries no Salesforce entry, which is worth checking if Salesforce is your system of record.
Where Mixmax And QuickMail Sit In A Cold Outbound Stack
QuickMail is a sending layer built for cold volume, with the deliverability tooling included rather than sold beside it. Mixmax is the layer between an inbox and a CRM.
Our own house rule points clearly at one of them: we send one message per campaign and never bump a thread, so what we need from a sending tool is warmed mailboxes, rotation, a clean reply and nothing else. QuickMail bundles exactly that. Mixmax's sequencing is not the part we would use, and its meeting handling is genuinely valuable on the other side of the reply, which is a different purchase.
Switching Between Them
Moving from Mixmax to QuickMail means moving the sending and keeping the inbox. Export your sequence copy, then set up mailboxes and let MailFlow warm them before the first campaign, because rotation across cold mailboxes is the capability you are buying and it needs a runway. Check whether your CRM is on QuickMail's list, since Salesforce is not.
Going the other way, the recipient cap is the wall. A QuickMail Growth user working the 25,000 uploaded contacts that tier allows cannot replicate that on Mixmax at any seat count that makes sense. Move the highest-value slice and treat the rest as work for a different tool.
Getting Started
- Count people who will touch campaigns. Above two, QuickMail's no-seat-charge model usually decides it.
- Count recipients per month against Mixmax's 1,500 per seat cap.
- Check whether Salesforce is your CRM, because QuickMail's published integration list does not include it.
- On QuickMail, plan mailbox warm-up time before the first send rather than after the first bounce spike.
- Run the same 200 contacts through both and compare what reaches the primary inbox.
Final Thoughts
QuickMail is priced for a team and metered for volume, and it includes the deliverability tooling that cold sending actually needs. Mixmax is priced per person and metered per person, and what it sells is the hour after the reply.
Count your people and your monthly recipients. Those two numbers answer this comparison faster than any trial will.

Frequently asked questions.
Frequently asked questions- Does QuickMail really not charge per user?
- Its pricing page says so directly: "We don't charge per seat. You may add as many team members as needed at no additional cost." All three tiers list unlimited users, unlimited email senders and unlimited LinkedIn accounts. The meter is uploaded contacts and emails sent instead, so cost scales with volume rather than headcount.
- How many people can Mixmax reach a month?
- 1,500 sequence recipients per seat on both paid tiers that carry sequences, and 3,000 on the custom team plan. The allowance is per seat rather than pooled, so an uneven split between reps leaves some of it unused. That cap, not the price, is what usually rules Mixmax out of volume outbound.
- Which one is better for an agency?
- QuickMail, and its Agency plan is built for it: $299 a month with two workspaces included and additional workspaces at $49 each, plus 100,000 uploaded contacts and 500,000 emails a month. Mixmax has no per-client workspace structure, so agency use means separate accounts.
- Can I use QuickMail with Salesforce?
- Not through a listed native integration. QuickMail's published integration list carries HubSpot, Pipedrive, Zapier, Make, Slack, Gmail, Outlook and Google Sheets, with no Salesforce entry. A Zapier or Make connection is the usual route, and it is worth confirming with the vendor before committing if Salesforce is your system of record.
