Gmail Reviews

Summary: Like many users, I’ve been using Gmail for over 10 years. The service has consistently been amazing, and I can’t find much of anything to complain about. It’s friendly, fast, and useful. If I could change one thing, I would update the interface, as it’s been the same for many years. For being free though, Gmail is excellent.

Positive: Fast connection, Easy to use, contacts feature, easy to attach files, simple to use, completely free

Negative: Gmail has a slightly outdated user interface, but it’s the best in terms of free email services.

Summary: Definitely a good overall experience, very simple to use as a user.

Positive: Very simplistic design that works well. Has many different options for sorting emails and filtering. Allows you to set up how you want your emails displayed along with what background you would like. Support is very responsive and it is a free service as well.

Negative: Some emails can get put into categories that they should not be in due to the filtering algorithm.

Summary: Overall, Gmail can be the best fit for both casual and business use because of the features it provides. Also, the user interface of the application is very appealing.

Positive: - You don't get limited to use only Gmail accounts, with Gmail you can add any email account of any email client provider.
- You get 15GB of free storage to backup your data.
- It is available on both computers and smartphones.

Negative: - Sometimes it takes a lot of time to synchronize your data.
- There is no read recipient feature available on Gmail.

Summary: Overall, Gmail is my go-to email service provider. A single gmail address can be used to login to almost all sites on the internet. Sending emails and files are very straightforward. The storage facility and cloud integration with all other GSuite apps are also very convenient.

Positive: Gmail is very easy to use and intuitive. You get 15 GB of storage space, which is a lot. None of my gmail accounts have ever come close to half of the space, so I've never seen the need to upgrade. I love the categorization options. You can easily add tags and categories to your emails and even configure them so that mails from a particular email address is stored only under those categories. I also love the interface; you can customize the themes and color schemes to your liking. The best part is that you can easily access or link to your files in other GSuite apps like Google Docs, Sheets or Slides, or Drive, which has been so helpful for me. There are also easy integrations between many other apps, like Google Meet, or Classroom. Gmail also provides an easy way to login to most social websites, so essentially a gmail id is all you need to access almost any website on the internet that asks for an authorization. Sending mails to individuals or groups are also simple. The draft option is also another favorite of mine, since everything is saved real-time, so nothing is lost even if your device freezes while writing an email.

Negative: While it offers cool configuration options, the AI algorithm isn't perfect in categorizing you mails as Promotions, Social, or Primary. The same sender can be seen across all three categories, which can be annoying. I was also a little surprised to see literally ALL of my activity of google recorded, even from years before. While it is included in Google's Terms and Agreements, many do not know of this fact, and it can be creepy when you find out Google has been tracking you all this while. The spam filter isn't efficient and has a lot of room for improvement.
