Microsoft Outlook Reviews

Pros

I use Microsoft Outlook everyday for my job. I like that I can set up appointments on the calendar. I can schedule when I need to send out an email. I send mass emails without anyone knowing they are on my list.

Cons

I actually like everything about Microsoft Outlook. I have not had anything negative happen.

Pros

The interface. Its easy to user, clear and you have all important info at glance. I like the layout and the button styles as well.

Cons

It hangs. Now less than before but in the last years Outlook was having troubles in handling large quantity of data. With the cloud service its much better (no more psts) but now it hangs when facing poor network performances.

Pros

Easy to sign in and upload all the emails from as far back as I can remember

Cons

Sometimes it was hard to learn to file emails in certain folders.

Pros

I mean it functions and is what I grew up using.

Cons

It doesnt sync well with other email servers.

Pros

Microsoft Outlook is by far my favorite email. It's very secure, easy to use, I hardly get junk mail (like I used to with other email platforms), and it customizable!

Cons

I do wish you could more easily share your weekly schedule with colleagues and I wish you could specify what days/hours you're working in the office or working from home so that people know how to reach you. There are some features such as groups that I think are really cool, but a little difficult to figure out and use.

Pros

I like the fact that it is user friendly with simple help solutions

Cons

The online application is not my thing. Idk why, but the actual app just works better for me.

Reasons for Switching to Microsoft Outlook

I choose MS Outlook because it was/is easy to Integrate my other email accounts together in one place

Pros

I love that you can create multiple folders to separate the different types of emails the moment you get them.

Cons

Some of the navigation and search functionalities makes it hard to find emails that end up being buried over time.

Pros

I LOVE the layout and alerts from outlook. I use all features including mail, calendar and reminders. Outlook offers a variety of personification options. The best feature is the pin to remind you to respond to certain emails or look back over them.

Cons

As of now I have no concerns regarding outlook and how it functions.

Pros

I enjoy how new outlook makes it easy to find features and looks pleasant and modern without being too overpowering.

Cons

Old outlook looked very dated. I heavily enjoy the new/browser version of Outlook more than the original. Switch if you have not yet.

Pros

Good email app supports almost every type of email account

Cons

Requires that users have an outlook or Microsoft account for most features free version pushed adds

Pros

I like the colored flag feature as it helps me keep my projects organized, and of course the ease of emailing and standard ooo work features and signatures are easy and a must for the office.

Cons

I have found the last 3 years or so the calendar function is a bit flaky. I will shutdown my computer and all calendars will be wiped out the next day and I'll have to add them all again and it frequently freezes when opening calendar. Not sure if it is due to Teams link at work or not but they are both Microsoft products so you think it would not do that.

Pros

integration capabilities
email, calendar, and task management in one platform
compatibility with other Microsoft Office applications

Cons

I personally feel that outlook is resource-intensive.
It consumes more resources ans slows down system performance, sometimes.

Pros

- ability to create folder for easy sorting of emails and auto directing of emails based on contact/email address;
- unread folder - easily allows to check unread emails which are visible in the unread folder - these can be additionally sorted by date, recipient etc;
-the search function with various filters which makes it easy to find emails based on different criteria.
- overall appearance of the application and ability to change it as per personal preference.

Cons

Have used outlook for work for many years, and have not had any complaints

Pros

I liked Microsoft Outlook's comprehensive email management, including its powerful organizational features, integrated calendar, and task management, which streamline productivity and communication efficiently.

Cons

What I liked least about Microsoft Outlook is its sometimes complex interface and occasional slow performance with large email volumes, which can hinder productivity.

Pros

The platform is very stable and reliable. It comes within my standard subscription for the Microsoft package so I think it is reasonable value and I get updates whenever they are produced

Cons

Microsoft has its own way of doing things and sometimes gets in the way of how I want to arrange things

Pros

I like the email security functions in Microsoft Outlook which keep my inbox safe from spam and other malicious emails. It has an amazing function for sending emails on schedules rather than instantly. It makes it so easy to access my emails from anywhere making it possible to work in remote.

Cons

I have not found a thing in Microsoft Outlook that does not do the job right and I have no cons.

Pros

I like that it has all the features I need to manage email. I rarely thing, "If only it could..." It is a one stop for email, calendar, meetings and I trust what it shows me... almost all the time. Rarely has it misrepresented anything.

Cons

It's not great to look at, and it has so many features, I get lost in the options. I wish it were smarter to know what I need and narrow my choices accordingly.

Pros

Very useful the pinned mails tool.
Best in the market mails management program.
You can find it through app or through browser in every device pc,laptop,tablet and in every system iOS or Android.

Cons

If you comlete your storage you need to pay in order to have access in extra storage.
Also when I send a mail I can understand if my mail send it or not but I cannot see if my mail is opened or not.I mean if the receiver read my mail.This one feature that I can do it with an external app but not included in the Microsoft Outlook.

Pros

It's familiar and easy to navigate with solid filtering functionality.

The new Outlook has some bugs. Traditional view is what I like. As long as performance is good then so am I.

Cons

Not very sophisticated and it gets slower at times

Pros

Microsoft Outlook for Mac no longer feels like the poor cousin - its a full-featured, stable and secure email management platform and as part of the Office365 suite its perfect in my small business scenario. I have very few issues with it, and I know I can rely on it to keep my business communications well-organised and consistent.

Cons

The HTML formatting for Mac is still a fraction hit and its, but it does emails and email management well.
