Specialising in email, SMS, Facebook, Chat, CRM, and more, it supports more than 300,000 active users across 160 countries, with offices in Seattle, Berlin, Bangalore, Sofia, Noida, and Toronto.
Unlike other marketing solutions focused on enterprise-level businesses, Brevo serves both B2B and B2C businesses and eCommerce sellers. It is committed to providing affordable and accessible marketing solutions to reach as many customers as possible. A recent acquisition of Yodel.io enabled the company to reduce digital marketing costs while creating additional features for customer success.
Brevo's position has strengthened in the growing market as more SMBs are going digital.
