DMARC · 3-way comparison

dmarcian or EasyDMARC — when Conbool is the complementary or better choice.

The DMARC reporting market is shaped by two US specialists: dmarcian (founded by a DMARC co-author) and EasyDMARC (free-tier entry, broad UI). Conbool DMARC Reports enters as the EU alternative inside the MailGuard bundle — free as an add-on and with a German contracting party. This page compares all three neutrally with source references — as of September 2026.

What really matters in DMARC reporting.

DMARC reporting means collecting RUA and RUF reports, classifying senders and deriving a policy recommendation. dmarcian and EasyDMARC are standalone specialists, both with a selectable EU region; EasyDMARC contracts as a Dutch B.V. Conbool is a full email security suite from Germany with nine integrated modules: MailGuard, SecureMail, SecureFiles, Disclaimer, DMARC Reports, Archive, Continuity, 365 Backup and Awareness. DMARC reporting is therefore not a separate tool but part of the same platform, with the same audit log, the same admin console and a German contracting party with a DPA.

The five decisive questions in a 3-way comparison.

Every statement about dmarcian and EasyDMARC references its own public source. As of September 2026.

Where are my DMARC reports hosted?

Conbool DMARC Reports

Exclusively in EU data centers on ISO-27001-certified infrastructure. The contracting party is Conbool GmbH in Germany; a GDPR Art. 28 DPA is included by default.

dmarcian

dmarcian operates regional instances including the EU, the Americas, Canada, Japan, Australia and APAC. The region is chosen at sign-up and determines where the account and DMARC data reside.

Source: dmarcian.com — Trust Center / subprocessor and region overview. Please verify the concrete region per tenant directly with the vendor.

EasyDMARC

The contracting entity is EasyDMARC B.V., seated in Zoetermeer, the Netherlands. Processing runs on AWS and the region is determined by the address in your DMARC record. For EU requirements the vendor documents the Ireland region, addressed via rua.easydmarc.eu and ruf.easydmarc.eu, alongside regions in the US, Canada, Australia and India.

Source: easydmarc.com — Netherlands privacy policy and the knowledge-base article on data hosting locations listing the EU addresses. As of September 2026.

Why this matters: EU processing is available from all three vendors, but with dmarcian and EasyDMARC it depends on the region you pick, and therefore on the address in your DMARC record. A record pointing elsewhere sends the reports to another region without anyone noticing. RUF reports contain potentially personal header and body data, so the data location has to be documented for the GDPR record of processing and NIS-2 risk assessments. With Conbool the location is named in the DPA and the contracting party is a German GmbH.

What feature scope is included by default?

Conbool DMARC Reports

RUA and RUF reports integrated into MailGuard. Sender classification, pass-rate trend plus a direct policy recommendation in the MailGuard context, from none through quarantine to reject, based on the sender analysis. There is no BIMI hosting and no BIMI check inside the module; the enforced reject policy is the technical precondition a BIMI record requires anyway.

dmarcian

dmarcian delivers classic DMARC reporting with threat-intel enrichment of the identified senders, based on the dmarcian dataset accumulated over years.

Source: dmarcian.com — product page / feature matrix. As of September 2026.

EasyDMARC

EasyDMARC delivers DMARC reporting, BIMI hosting (free in higher plans) and threat-intel indicators. UI and UX focus is part of the market positioning.

Source: easydmarc.com — product and pricing page. As of September 2026.

Why this matters: Pure DMARC reporting is a commodity. The real difference is in the integration with the mail flow and the depth of the threat-intel dataset.

How is licensing structured?

Conbool DMARC Reports

Conbool DMARC Reports is included free of charge as an add-on to any MailGuard contract. No additional per-domain fees, no tier jumps, no free-tier lock-in.

dmarcian

dmarcian uses tier-based per-domain licensing. Editions differ by feature depth (threat-intel depth, MSP features).

Source: dmarcian.com — pricing page with tier/plan overview per domain. As of September 2026.

EasyDMARC

EasyDMARC offers a free entry tier plus several paid plan levels. Advanced features such as higher domain counts, BIMI and a support SLA are reserved for paid plans. The current tiering is maintained on the pricing page.

Source: easydmarc.com — pricing page with Free/Pro/Business overview. As of September 2026.

Why this matters: Customers already using MailGuard for mail security save the separate DMARC license entirely. The EasyDMARC free tier is low-barrier but has domain and feature limits.

How does the DMARC report analysis work?

Conbool DMARC Reports

Senders are classified as Legit / Suspicious / Forwarder / Unknown. Conbool adds a direct policy recommendation in the MailGuard context — not just 'this sender is suspicious', but 'switch from none to quarantine because the following legit senders are covered'.

dmarcian

dmarcian is considered the DMARC auth pioneer (identification and classification of senders). The threat-intel dataset is one of the most mature on the market due to years of presence.

Source: dmarcian.com — methodology whitepaper / threat-intel description. As of September 2026.

EasyDMARC

EasyDMARC also classifies senders into categories (Legit / Suspicious / Forwarder) and focuses on a simple UI for source identification. Threat-intel is part of the product.

Source: easydmarc.com — Source Identification / Threat Intelligence product page. As of September 2026.

Why this matters: All three classify — but Conbool links classification directly to the recommendation of which DMARC policy to roll out next, instead of leaving that derivation to the IT team.

How does the solution integrate into the mail flow?

Conbool DMARC Reports

Conbool DMARC is integrated with MailGuard: same tenant, same audit log, same policy console. From a DMARC finding, a MailGuard rule (e.g., quarantine for spoofing senders) can be derived directly.

dmarcian

dmarcian is a standalone reporting tool. Integration into a mail-security gateway happens manually via DNS configuration and separate policy maintenance.

Source: dmarcian.com — product architecture / integration documentation. As of September 2026.

EasyDMARC

EasyDMARC is also a standalone reporting tool. Integrations with Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace exist selectively (e.g., for DKIM key management); a mail-gateway coupling is not part of the product.

Source: easydmarc.com — integrations overview / knowledge base. As of September 2026.

Why this matters: When DMARC findings and mail-filter rules live in two separate tools, administrative effort multiplies. Conbool combines both in the same audit log.

Migration checklist

Switching to Conbool DMARC Reports in four steps.

Because DMARC reporting is pure DNS configuration, the switch happens practically without downtime. The four steps below describe a clean migration in parallel operation.

  1. 1. Review the current DMARC DNS record configuration

    Read the existing DMARC record (TXT entry _dmarc.your-domain) and note the rua= and ruf= tags. These currently hold the dmarcian or EasyDMARC endpoints. The DMARC policy (p=none/quarantine/reject) stays unchanged.

  2. 2. Add the Conbool endpoint to the rua= tag in parallel

    The Conbool endpoint is added to the rua= tag alongside the existing dmarcian or EasyDMARC endpoint, comma-separated. This way both vendors receive reports for at least two weeks in parallel — no data is lost and the two outputs can be compared.

  3. 3. After 2 weeks of data comparison: remove the legacy endpoints

    After two weeks, the Conbool console is checked to confirm that all reporting sources arrive and sender classification is consistent with the legacy solution. The dmarcian / EasyDMARC endpoints are then removed from the rua= tag, so only Conbool receives reports.

  4. 4. Let the dmarcian / EasyDMARC contracts expire

    Once Conbool reports flow fully, the dmarcian or EasyDMARC contract can be cancelled within notice or simply allowed to expire. If EasyDMARC was used on the free tier, closing the account is enough.

Note: DMARC reports are daily technical statistics. There is no risk in parallel operation — both vendors simply receive the same report stream. Conbool recommends at least 14 days of parallel period for clean data continuity.
