I'm using Mandrill for transactional email, and will most likely start using Mailjet for email campaigns.
I believe that Mandrill etc give a better deliverability compared to SES.
Can you please share more of your experience regarding deliverability of various services? I'm somewhat surprised to hear SES can be surpassed in this department.
I only tested SendGrid and Mandrill for transactional email.
I switched off SendGrid after seeing quite a bit of gmail owners got their email sent into spam (but I believe they fixed the issue).
I use DKIM/SPF with Mandrill and nobody mentioned a spam issue since then.
On SES: I cannot find back the precise article I was thinking about right now (a benchmark if I remember well), these are just my memories.
I use SES with DKIM and SPF. It's fast, cheap and I've never had a single email go to spam.
