The verdict
dmarcian has strong DMARC credentials (founded by a DMARC spec co-author), but it's a one-trick pony. There's no blacklist monitoring, no inbox placement testing, no email content analysis, and no domain health dashboard. MailVitals Beat is a complete email health monitoring platform, with Steady at $57/month for 10 domains, versus $199/month for DMARC-only monitoring from dmarcian at the same scale.
