The rest of this page is for you. We spoke to email experts throughout the industry to help us understand why marketers choose Everest over SparkPost. They gave us some compelling reasons and we’ve highlighted the most important ones below. We hope this helps guide your decision.
The Everest data network provides more accurate results that represent your audience and don’t put you at risk for unethical marketing practices.
We believe the data you use to drive decisions should be reflective of your audience and your email program.
That’s why Everest leverages the largest email data network in the industry. We analyze over 3 trillion data points every year through hundreds of proprietary data feeds and customer data to provide you with more accurate insights to improve the outcomes of your email program.
Our inbox placement tool leverages the industry’s largest global seed network to provide results that are actionable and reliable. Our network provides comprehensive coverage across 140 ISPs in 38 countries. Your results are weighted to reflect your audience so you can focus on the email providers that have the biggest impact on your program. These results drive confident and strategic decisions to help you get more messages in front of more people.
SparkPost uses panel data to feed their Inbox Tracker tool. At Validity, we don’t use panel data because ethical marketing and customer privacy are our top priorities. The results provided through panel data are produced by tools that manipulate the mailbox and can be geographically biased. Therefore, they are not representative of your email audience. Why make critical decisions based on data that doesn’t reflect your audience? We don’t recommend it.
Our credibility in the industry means our partnerships work for you.
Certification is the industry’s most unique and powerful sending practices program that helps reputable senders achieve higher inbox placement rates.

Owning our technology allows us to innovate and adapt to your needs.
As the next generation email deliverability platform, we’ve made strategic investments to create our own intellectual property. Since it’s our technology, we have control over the roadmap for our all-in-one platform. This allows us to correlate data across related functionality, giving you more actionable results. We continue to innovate and build solutions guided by the direction of our customers.
SparkPost has thrown together tech from separate third parties to “check the box” on key features. Some of the tech they’ve thrown together is tech they’ve gotten illegally by stealing that intellectual property from 250ok. In doing so, they attempt to give the impression of a more complete platform. However, the solutions were not designed to work together limiting the ability to function as an integrated platform. In addition, relying on third parties further limits their ability to make updates and roll out new features.
