DMARCLytics vs Palisade in 2026
DMARCLytics combines DMARC report analysis, sender mapping, guided policy rollout, and support-led authentication work. Palisade takes a more agentic route: its AI agent investigates senders, drafts SPF and DKIM fixes, and proposes each policy step for your approval.
Our verdict: DMARCLytics may fit teams that want a DMARC dashboard, hosted record options on higher plans, Guardian AI sender identification and complete SPF-record preparation, and access to human support. Guardian AI supplies records for customers to apply in DNS. Complete DKIM drafting and an approval gate for each policy step are not established by the reviewed sources; confirm the required scope. Palisade's agent investigates senders, drafts SPF and DKIM fixes, and proposes policy steps for human approval before deployment.

Which one is right for you?
Best for Teams wanting guided DMARC work and human support
Best for MSPs and IT teams responsible for multiple domains
- You want DMARClytics' sender maps, threat monitoring, inbox placement tests, and guided p=none to p=reject workflow in one dashboard.
- You value a published Starter/Professional pricing path, a 14-day trial, and human support as part of the product experience.
- You are comfortable having your team or a DMARClytics engineer handle the actual DNS changes and policy decisions.
- You want an AI agent to investigate every sender, draft SPF and DKIM fixes, and propose each policy step while your team approves before anything ships.
- You operate an MSP or IT portfolio where repeated manual remediation is the constraint, not merely the lack of a report dashboard.
- You want flat IT-team pricing by email volume, unlimited IT-team and MSP report retention (Enterprise retention follows custom terms), or native ConnectWise, HaloPSA, and Autotask workflows.

Palisade 86 vs DMARCLytics 69, and why
Both products are scored on the same eight dimensions the comparison hub uses, so the figures here are the figures there. Four are derived from vendor facts that each carry a source and a checked date. Four are editorial, marked as such below, and each states its reasoning and its source.
Each dimension is out of 10 and the total is the raw sum out of 80, rescaled to 100 — the raw figure is printed beside it so the conversion is checkable rather than a black box. Scored on what each vendor publishes, not on how the product feels in use. Unknown scoring dimensions are shown as Not established; provisional scores average only established dimensions and show coverage. They may change as remaining dimensions are verified. Current ranks include full and provisional scores; equal displayed scores share a rank. Historical assessments are separate. Editorial dimensions last reviewed 2026-10-15.

How reachable the vendor's DMARC data is from your own software and AI tools. Two paths count, an API and an MCP server, and each only if it reaches DMARC data (domains, records, reports or sending sources). A path is open when it is documented and included from the cheapest paid plan; gated when it needs a higher tier, an add-on, a sales call or a request, or the vendor does not say which plans include it. 10 = both open. 9 = one open, one gated. 8 = both gated. 7 = one open, the other absent. 6 = one gated, the other absent. 5 = access claimed in marketing only, with no docs or plan listing. 4 = reachable only through a self-hosted tool's own interface or a host platform's API, such as parsedmarc's library or Splunk's REST API; a dashboard over a database you run yourself does not count. 3 = no API or MCP server reaches DMARC data.
DMARCLytics does not publish an API or MCP server on its current product site (checked 2026-08-28). Source (2026-08-28)

How much of the report analysis is done for you. 10 = the platform turns raw report data into a prioritised, actionable queue on its own.
Sender mapping, automated alerts, threat views, and Guardian AI produce prioritized remediation guidance from RUA and RUF data. Source (2026-08-28)
Report data is analysed into a prioritised list of sender, SPF, DKIM and DMARC issues, so nobody reads raw XML. Source (2026-08-30)
How much of the work the vendor's own software does. 10 = it identifies the sending sources, drafts the SPF and DKIM fixes each one needs, and proposes the next policy step. 6 = it applies the records for you, but a person decides what to fix and when to advance. 3 = it reports, and every change is yours to make. A vendor whose team does the work rather than its software scores here on the software alone.
Guardian AI identifies sending services, correlates authentication failures and produces a full updated SPF record for the operator to publish.

Where Palisade and DMARCLytics actually differ
Each argument keeps the product screens, sourced comparison points, and supporting analysis together.
Recommendations vs execution
Guardian AI prepares SPF records; compare DKIM drafting and policy review
DMARCLytics is built around turning aggregate reports into an operator-friendly picture: the product says it parses XML automatically, maps each sending IP and service, shows SPF and DKIM status, and flags unknown sources. Its guided workflow then helps a team decide what must be aligned before moving from p=none to quarantine or reject. That is a useful answer to the first problem in DMARC work: making the report understandable enough to act on. Source (2026-08-26) Source 2 (2026-08-26)

Palisade
- AI agent investigates senders, drafts authentication fixes, and proposes policy steps for approval: Agent drafts and proposes
DMARCLytics' Guardian AI identifies senders and prepares complete SPF records. Its FAQ says it supplies the exact record to add but does not make DNS changes on the customer's behalf. Complete DKIM drafting and an approval gate for each policy step are not established by the reviewed sources. Palisade's agent identifies senders, drafts SPF and DKIM fixes, and proposes policy steps, with your team approving before deployment. Compare the required investigation, record preparation and review steps rather than assuming Guardian AI stops at recommendations. Source (2026-10-13)
Volume pricing vs domain pricing
£9.99 Starter monitoring, £30 Professional controls, and Enterprise quotes
DMARCLytics' pricing page gives small teams a visible entry point, then adds volume, domains, hosted record management, inbox tests, team management, and richer support as plans rise. Professional is the meaningful comparison point for an operating team: it lists 10 domains, 3 million monitored emails per month, hosted DMARC and SPF management, a five-step policy wizard, 100 inbox placement tests per month, and one year of history. Enterprise expands the limits and adds a dedicated DMARC engineer, managed DKIM, unlimited tests, and SLA-backed support. Source (2026-08-26)

Palisade
- Guided DMARC policy path from p=none to p=quarantine to p=reject: Agent drafts and proposes
- Hosted DMARC and SPF record management: Hosted on managed DNS
- Inbox placement testing across multiple mailbox providers: No test allocation listed
There is an important buying caveat: the page contradicts itself. The main card prices Starter at £9.99, while a later FAQ calls Starter completely free forever; the middle plan is called Professional in one place and Business in another; and Enterprise history appears as unlimited in one section and two years in another. Those inconsistencies do not make the published numbers unusable, but they mean a buyer should capture the offer shown at checkout or confirm it with sales before comparing a long-term budget. Source (2026-08-26)
Palisade's model answers a different budgeting question. IT teams choose a flat monthly tier based on email volume, while MSPs receive portfolio-based per-client-domain pricing, with a minimum of 5 client domains, and a free NFR domain for their own operation. The comparison is therefore not £30 versus $19: it is whether your cost driver is a DMARCLytics plan's domain and message ceilings or a Palisade tier that matches sending volume and lets you add domains without a charge, with setup limits defined by the selected tier.

Agency support vs operational scale
DMARCLytics supports agencies; verify the handoff work before scaling
DMARCLytics does speak to agencies and resellers. Its management page advertises client-branded reports, bulk onboarding and configuration, unlimited domain management in the scale story, and reseller-friendly pricing. Its support page adds a human-guided layer: the team describes onboarding calls, setup checklists, review calls, and dedicated account management for higher plans. For an agency that wants a central reporting surface and a support relationship, those are concrete reasons to shortlist it. Source (2026-08-26) Source 2 (2026-08-26)
DMARCLytics

Palisade
- Multi-domain management from a central dashboard: Agent portfolio monitoring
- Client-branded reports and bulk onboarding: White-label report, bulk import
- Native ConnectWise, HaloPSA, and Autotask integrations: Native PSA integrations
The public site does not name ConnectWise, HaloPSA, Autotask, or another PSA integration. That does not prove an integration is impossible; it means the workflow is not published for a buyer to validate. The same caution applies to API access: the public pricing and knowledge-base pages do not document an API contract on every plan. An MSP should ask for the import, ticketing, delegation, and export details in writing before treating the reseller language as a complete service-operations fit. Source (2026-08-26) Source 2 (2026-08-26)
Palisade is aimed at that repeated handoff problem. Its agent-led workflow is designed to investigate and draft work across a portfolio, while native ConnectWise, HaloPSA, and Autotask integrations help bring client domains into the operating loop. DMARCLytics can be the narrower fit when the agency prioritises a guided dashboard, human onboarding, inbox-placement testing, or the option of a dedicated engineer; Palisade is the narrower fit when the agency wants to reduce the number of manual remediation steps per client.
Native PSA integrations
Palisade imports client domains straight from these three. DMARCLytics's own coverage is stated above, from their site.
- ConnectWise PSA
- Autotask

Dashboard access vs programmatic access
DMARCLytics publishes Guardian AI and report exports, but no public API or MCP server
DMARCLytics advertises Guardian AI inside its product. It reads DMARC reports, identifies failures, answers questions about a domain, and gives users records to add. The vendor also lists historical trend charts and export in its aggregate-report analytics. Its public homepage and knowledge base show product, tool, and setup documentation routes but no developer, API, or MCP reference. The DMARC management page does not advertise scheduled exports or webhooks (checked 2026-08-27). Source (2026-08-27) Source 2 (2026-08-27) Source 3 (2026-08-27) Source 4 (2026-08-27)

DMARCLytics pricing: £9.99 Starter, £30 Professional, and Enterprise quotes
DMARCLytics publishes a Starter price of £9.99 per month and a Professional price of £30 per month, with Enterprise sold by contact. The page also says annual billing is 20% cheaper and that prices exclude VAT. Its labels are not completely consistent, so the table below reports what the pricing page actually presents rather than smoothing the differences away.
What you'd actually pay
The same five buyer sizes on every comparison, so a shape carries from one page to the next.
1 domain, up to 1,000 emails a month
FAQ: Starter is free until more than 1 domain or real-time monitoring; the Starter card separately lists £9.99/month, 3 domains, and 150,000 emails/month

How DMARCLytics prices
- The page's comparison grid calls the middle tier Business while the top plan card calls it Professional; both show 10 domains and 3 million emails per month.
- The same page later says the Starter plan is completely free forever, even though its main plan card shows Starter at £9.99/month. Treat the free-plan wording as an unresolved pricing-page inconsistency and confirm it before buying.
- The Enterprise card says unlimited data history, while the comparison grid shows 2 years. The public page does not explain the difference.
- Annual billing is advertised at 20% off, prices exclude VAT, and the page says there are no lock-in contracts and no credit card is required to start.
- The page says every plan includes a 14-day trial of the next tier up; its FAQ separately says the trial gives full access to the selected plan. Confirm which trial entitlement applies to the account you select.
How Palisade prices
- Palisade's IT-team plans are flat monthly prices sized by email volume: $19, $29, $59, $99, and $249 per month for up to 100K, 250K, 500K, 1M, and 2.5M emails, with 20% off annually.
- Palisade's IT-team and MSP plans keep unlimited report history (Enterprise retention follows custom terms). Adding domains is free and unlimited, while only set-up domains count against the paid tier.
- MSPs pay per client domain at a rate that improves as their portfolio grows, with a minimum of 5 client domains, and their own MSP domain is included as a free Not-For-Resale license. There is no public MSP rate card.

What each one covers, and where it stops
Published facts only, read from each vendor's own material. Neither column describes a hands-on trial, because we have not run one.
DMARCLytics is built for teams that want a dashboard for DMARC reporting, sender mapping, and guided policy rollout. It automatically parses aggregate XML, maps sending IPs and services, shows SPF and DKIM status, and flags unknown sources. Its workflow helps an operator decide what to align before moving from p=none to quarantine or reject.
DMARCLytics publishes a £9.99 Starter plan and a £30 Professional plan, with Enterprise sold by contact. As plans rise, it adds domains, message volume, hosted record management, inbox tests, team management, data history, and support. The vendor also positions its management and support workflow for agencies and resellers needing branded reports, bulk onboarding, and human guidance.
Palisade is built around an agent that does the DMARC work rather than reporting on it. It identifies every sending source, drafts the SPF and DKIM changes each one needs, and proposes the next policy step when the evidence supports it.
The agent investigates every sender, drafts every fix, and proposes each policy step, you approve before anything ships.
- Provides automatic XML parsing with mapped sending IPs and services
- Provides a five-step policy wizard from p=none toward p=reject
- Provides hosted DMARC and SPF management on Professional and Enterprise
- Provides client-branded reports and bulk onboarding for agencies and resellers
- Provides Guardian AI for report analysis and record guidance
- The agent investigates senders and drafts the fix, so the work arrives prepared rather than as a list of findings
- Hosted SPF, DKIM and DMARC records, so an approved change can be carried out rather than handed off
- Portfolio workflow for MSPs, with ConnectWise, HaloPSA and Autotask integrations and a free NFR domain
- An MCP server and a REST API, so the same data and workflow are reachable from the AI tools a team already uses
- Does not advertise agent-executed DNS or policy changes
- Does not advertise named ConnectWise, HaloPSA, or Autotask integrations
- Does not advertise a documented REST or GraphQL API
- Does not advertise an MCP server for external AI assistants
- Every policy change waits for a human approval, by design: nothing ships on the agent's own authority
- MSP pricing is portfolio-based per client domain, with a minimum of 5 client domains
- Plans are sized by monthly email volume, so a low-domain, high-volume sender lands on a higher tier than domain count alone suggests

Palisade vs DMARCLytics: FAQ
What does DMARCLytics do?
DMARCLytics parses DMARC aggregate reports, maps sending sources, surfaces SPF/DKIM and alignment issues, provides guided policy progression, and adds threat and deliverability features on higher plans. It is a dashboard-and-workflow product; the public Guardian AI FAQ says its assistant does not make DNS changes for you.
Does DMARCLytics automatically move a domain to p=reject?
The site advertises a guided five-step path from p=none to p=reject, but Guardian AI says it provides the exact records while the customer makes DNS changes. Read that as guided enforcement with customer-controlled changes, not an autonomous policy mutation workflow.
Is DMARCLytics suitable for an MSP or agency?
It advertises client-branded reports, bulk onboarding, reseller-friendly pricing, multi-domain management, and human support. However, the public pages reviewed do not name PSA integrations or publish an API contract, so an MSP should verify ticketing, delegation, export, and client-isolation workflows before committing.
How much does DMARCLytics cost?
The pricing page displays Starter at £9.99 per month, Professional at £30 per month, and Enterprise as contact sales, with annual billing advertised at 20% off. The same page also calls Starter free in an FAQ and uses both Professional and Business labels, so confirm the exact offer before purchase.
What is the main difference between DMARCLytics and Palisade?
Both can help a team understand DMARC data and progress toward enforcement. DMARCLytics emphasises dashboards, guided workflows, hosted-record options, inbox testing, and human support; Palisade is agentic, with an AI agent that investigates senders, drafts SPF/DKIM fixes, and proposes policy steps for approval.
Switching from DMARCLytics takes three steps
- 1
Batch-import your domains
Bring your client domains into Palisade in bulk, or let your ConnectWise, HaloPSA, or Autotask integration sync them automatically.
- 2
Run both platforms in parallel
Keep both reporting destinations configured during the overlap, verify external-report authorization where required, and confirm reports arrive in both platforms before retiring DMARCLytics. Review hosted-record dependencies before changing DNS.
- 3
Cut DNS over on your schedule
Point records at Palisade's hosted infrastructure, then retire the old setup when you're satisfied.
