MXroute

I have had an awesome experience with https://mxroute.com/. The owner takes deliverability very seriously and I have never had an email go to spam. I would recommend it.

MailerSend

A relative new player is MailerSend (https://mailersend.com/). We've moved all of our transactional e-mail over to their service. They have a sensible onboarding and UI/dashboard. There is a generous free tier for a single domain. A single paid account supports multiple domains starting at $25/mo for 50k outbound. Support has been excellent. And the biggest upside is that their IP range, so far, is clean and not blacklisted. That was the clincher for us. I have no connection to MailerSend other than a happy customer.

Mail-in-a-box

Have you thought about Mail-in-a-box and a cheap VPS? I've had one up for testing and am surprised at the reliability and ease of use. https://mailinabox.email/.

Funny to see this question as I had actually just the same question 24 hours ago. For a small side project (see https://umbrellatoday.app if interested), I need to send emails to warn users to bring an umbrella when stepping outdoors. As such, I cannot risk the email not getting delivered, and my users getting wet. I came across this alternative to Sendgrid, which was easy to setup and works like a charm. Updating the umbrella app as we speak with this solution. See: https://mailazy.com.

ImprovMX

I use ImprovMX for inbound forwarding from my domain to whatever email service I use, but they also offer SMTP sending for their paid service. So for $9 a month, I get great forwarding for many domains and users per domain, and I get SMTP service for each domain per user. I highly recommend them. Their support is great too. https://improvmx.com.

turboSMTP

Https://serversmtp.com/ It is the only one I have used, it offers both SMTP and a REST API of which I have only used REST, at $COMPANY it was valued as "the cheapest working service to send thousands of email/month from a few email address (the usual noreply@xxx.yy)".
