Hi,

What’s easier way to send email notifications? One needs to have server credentials for the Send Email node. is there any other way we can achieve this other than Gmail node?

Sadly would you need credentials for every node that sends an email. Alternatives to the two you mentioned would be Mailjet and Mailgun.
