The verdict
GlockApps is a solid deliverability testing platform, but its credit-based pricing model creates unpredictable costs. Users report price increases of 400–500% in recent years, and basic DMARC analytics costs an additional $55–$199/month on top of base plans. MailVitals Beat has three published plans: Minimum at $27/month, Steady at $57/month and Strong at $97/month. DMARC reports come with every plan and inbox placement with Steady and Strong. There are no hidden costs and no surprise invoices.
