ShareMail vs Gmelius
Gmelius is a Gmail-native workspace: shared inboxes plus kanban boards, sequences and integrations. The catch is where the shared inbox sits in their price list, and it is not on the plan that looks cheapest.
What Gmelius does well
- Kanban boards and email sequences in the same tool as the inbox
- Gmail-native, with Slack and Trello integrations
- A broader workflow product if your team wants boards as well as mail
Their pricing, as published
Meli $19/user/mo, Growth $25, Pro $40, billed annually (Enterprise is custom, 50 seats minimum). Shared inboxes, shared labels and automation rules are not included on Meli; the shared inbox starts at Growth, $25/user/mo.

Choose Gmelius if…
You want kanban boards and outbound sequences living beside the shared inbox, and you are happy paying for the bundle.
Choose ShareMail if…
Your team answers email out of Gmail, you want comments, assignments, shared drafts and rules on top of it, and you would rather not pay per seat for a platform, or for AI you did not ask for. The whole inbox is on every plan, from $6 a seat.
