Microsoft Outlook Reviews

Summary: After working with Outlook for 5 years, I switched to GMail for work email and the change was instantaneous. While Outlook can be customized, default views easily lead to email overwhelm and dropped balls. I would not use it as an email solution if I had another choice.

Positive: Outlook has a great organized feel and a nice layout compared to other email providers. They provide a nice taskbar with all listed options so you do not have to search around to send priority or attach links/images.

The experience I had with this platform was quite good, it provided excellent sending and receiving of each of the emails in its version for computers, however, as I mentioned previously, it is really necessary to improve the application for mobile devices, since It has problems when it comes to Refreshing the inbox in the background and when it comes to sending notifications of received emails, however, those negative things do not change my opinion about this platform, I still consider it to be a platform that is worth a lot pity, which provides you with a totally secure inbox to avoid fraudulent emails, I recommend it without a doubt for any company.

Also, I also didn't like the fact that to link an IMAP inbox, it is a complex process, you have to fill many boxes which can be a bit annoying for some users.
