Brevo, formerly Sendinblue, is the closest thing on this list to Lyncta on paper: email and SMS in one product, with a CRM attached. It goes considerably deeper — marketing automation, transactional email, a sales pipeline, WhatsApp campaigns and chat. What it does not have is the public side: a link-in-bio page, appointment booking, dynamic QR codes and branded short links. Choose Brevo for automation depth, Lyncta for the front door plus the campaigns behind it.
Where Lyncta wins: A public link-in-bio page — the thing your audience actually visits — included on every plan. Native appointment booking with availability rules, buffers, two-way Google Calendar sync and reminder emails. Dynamic QR codes with scan tracking and branded short links on l1n.it with click analytics. Social post scheduling and print or direct mail campaigns on the Business plan. Flat pricing with unlimited contacts on Business rather than tiering on contact count or send volume. Much less to configure — Brevo is a platform, Lyncta is a product.
Where Brevo is the better choice: You need marketing automation. Lyncta has none, and this is not a small gap. You need transactional email or SMS through an API. You want a CRM and sales pipeline in the same tool. You run WhatsApp campaigns or on-site chat. You send at high volume and need mature deliverability infrastructure.
Is Lyncta a Brevo replacement? Partly. Lyncta covers email campaigns, SMS campaigns and contact lists, but it has no marketing automation, no transactional API and no CRM pipeline. If you use Brevo for automated flows or transactional mail, Lyncta does not replace it.
What does Lyncta have that Brevo does not? A public link-in-bio page, native appointment booking with two-way Google Calendar sync, dynamic QR codes with scan analytics, branded short links on l1n.it, and print and direct mail campaigns.
How does Lyncta bill SMS compared with Brevo? Lyncta SMS runs on prepaid credits on the Business plan: you top up a balance and each message sent deducts from it, with no metered charge added to the subscription invoice. Brevo also sells SMS credits, so the models are similar.
Does Lyncta limit how many contacts I can store? No. Contacts are unlimited on the Business plan at $29 per month. The practical limit is sending volume and deliverability rather than a stored-contact cap.
