Great email client
Very positive. I've received good customer service and the price is very reasonable given that it's a one-off payment.
Pros
Set out nicely with a clear design. Love having whatsapp dropbox and google calendar all in one place integrated into the email client.
Cons
There is nothing that I can think of I don't like about the product. I am very happy with it.

It just works!
I have many different inboxes that I have to keep track of. Having to switch accounts to check everything at least a few times a day was very time-consuming. Since switching to MailBird I get all my accounts synced to a unified inbox and notified whenever I receive an email. That makes it much easier to stay on top of my work and keep track of everything with minimal effort which could easily save a lot of time.
Pros
The best thing about MailBird is that everything works. I have been using it for many years and it has been very reliable with no problems at all. Everything you should expect from your mail client is there with a few extra features as well but most importantly I have not encountered a single issue since I started using MailBird.
Cons
It might look a little bit basic and does not compare with all the fancy web-like interfaces that most newer software has. But don't let it fool you, there are a lot of great features that make MailBird a powerful tool, and most importantly what it does, it does well.

Attention, this is a scam!
Attention, this is a scam! I purchased a license from them, and for 9 months, the email service worked without issues. After 9 months, they started extorting money. They disabled one of my email accounts, and the only way to reactivate it is to pay more for an upgraded license. Do not buy this app if you don't want to become a victim of fraud!
Pros
I could have written about what I like or dislike about this app. However, after realizing that it’s a scam, I can't rate this app either positively or negatively because fraud can only be rated negatively.

Response from Mailbird
Hello,
Fortunately for all Mailbird customers this is not a scam, and I will explain exactly why: last year you purchased one of our 'Standard' licenses, which allows you to connect up to 3 email inboxes to Mailbird. This information has always been present on our pricing page after clicking on 'See all features' on the following web page: https://www.getmailbird.com/pricing
Our systems detected that you had connected more than 3 email inboxes to Mailbird, which is why a pop-up appeared offering the option to upgrade your license to a 'Premium' one in order to be able to connect an unlimited number of email accounts.
Upgrading is entirely optional, so we are not extorting any amount from you since you have the choice to not upgrade, even though for several months you exceeded the number of email inboxes allowed under the terms of your license.
We're sorry for the disappointment caused, but we must enforce a limit out of fairness to other customers who purchased a 'Premium' license.

Lifetime Licenses to good to be true.
Good until they released 3.0 and destroyed all trust with current long-term loyal customers.
Pros
The simplicity of using this was a dream, the previously offered lifetime product was a nice touch but they have stopped honoring this now.
Cons
It is no longer honouring the lifetime licenses.

SPARKReasons for Choosing Mailbird
made the quick because Mailbird seemed simpler and lifetime services were being sold, this has now been reverted and all lifetime keys are stuck on the older version, so we are now reverting to Microsoft.Switched From

Inbox zero!
Mailbird gives me what other desktop email programs didn't, a chance to stay on top of my emails. It's fast and with the unified mailbox, emails don't get lost in the shuffle. When my team first switched, we were able to import all the email settings from the other mail program we were using. Setup was instant!
Pros
The best thing about this software is the unified inbox. I have twelve email addresses, and when using other similar desktop email software, I would have to click on each email address to view the inbox of each. With this, it combines all the new email together, which helps to keep on top of all my emails.
Cons
The desktop software is spot on, it is hard to find a fault. My only wish is that there was a mobile version of this software for my phone.
