Vainu Connector edges out Gmail on rating (4.2★ vs 4.0★), but the gap is small enough that pricing fit and feature differentiation should drive the decision more than the headline number.
Pricing entry tiers: Gmail at Free plan available, Vainu Connector at Free plan available. Check each app's tier structure for the capacity limits you actually need before deciding — the headline number is the same shape, but the gating shape per tier (seats, usage volume, integrations) varies.
Gmail has the larger user base (3,417 reviews vs 17), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Vainu Connector's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat.
Recommended by size: small/early-stage teams who need fast install and low risk should default to Vainu Connector; mid-market and enterprise teams with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Gmail's 3,417-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than Vainu Connector's broader-but-shallower coverage.
