eM Client vs Microsoft Outlook Comparison

Organisation has changed mailing platform from Microsoft to em client. Till now it is similar to Microsoft Outlook. Can easily handle emails and meeting reminders.

I think interface isn't that good. Maybe its new software for us and not habitual.

It's a really nice display along with many settings to the view of the emails and reminders, tasks and much more.

Well, the functionality of the program is quite poor as opposed to others in the same feeled, Auto caps is not served at all!

eM Client is one of the best email clients on the market, your search for an email is completed. eM Client works perfectly with eg. Gmail where you can sync email, calendar, contacts and tasks without any hassle.

It would be great if eM Client could save information directly to eg OneNote or Google Keep the same way as Microsoft Outlook can do.

Our organization recently started using eM Client, previously we were using Microsoft outlook. And sorry , I don't have any pros to tell but regret and frustration.

Here you go- 1- totally confused GUI. smart folders , local folders and exported folders all would have inbox. You will wonder why is that ? 2- I experienced a real hard time while setting it up.. I wasted my 5 hours too get to know it basic functions and how we can use things which very simple in outlook. 3- I used to send DSR form outlook daily which is in form of table. When I first start to do that in eMclient , oh my gosh, I can't customize a table , can't merge to rows, can't copy same row with its properties in other rows.. 5- if I compare crating an DSR mail avg time in outlook and eMClient , it have 10 min difference. 6- it always ask you whether you forget to attach a file in this mail? Even on a simply two line mail. Zero intelligence lavel lavel.

A good, clean user interface that simply allows you to get to work rather than have to deal with the distraction of unnecessary visual niceties.

The auto-configure service can be a little unreliable sometimes and it decides to use it's own categories rather than using those already configured via other Microsoft Outlook clients.

It's an awesome software and is used in many organizations. Its interface is very good. Emails can be written in a good manner. Different platform than Microsoft Outlook. Colors used in product are perfect.

As this software is having different interface than outlook, its not an easy to use. Sometimes emails having large size attachments takes much time to load. If a user is viewing an email written from outlook doesn't look good because of the interface.

We recently started using this in our organisation before this we used to use microsoft outlook. It's good for basic mailing services and serves it's purpose well. Features are very limited but they cover all the basic ones.

Well replying to a mail chain and see all the previous mails is difficult in this. Except this i feel it's a good in budget client for Emails.

One of our users has a strong aversion to webmail. eM Client is a good option for a traditional email client. Very much cheaper than Outlook but looks and feels familiar so is easy to use. We move to eM Client from Thunderbird and like the integration of eM Client with Google Contacts very helpful.

No particular issues. It's cheaper than Outlook but competes more with free clients so it would be nice of eM Client were cheaper than it is, but can't really complain as it doesn't cost much, is regularly updated and has given good, reliable service over many years.

Best feature is that we can see hard code for emails. We can send emojis if the email is personal.

The problem i am facing while using the application is to insert /delete rows in the table. Even one cannot undo if a row is inserted or deleted mistakenly.

I'm not a fan of MS Outlook and was looking for an inexpensive alternative to handle Exchange email. It feels faster than Outlook and managing folders is better.

It occasionally has to restart due to database issues, but it's actually less of a problem than it was with Outlook.

Easy setup of our Google Accounts and the simplicity in some cases.

The features to catch up with Outlook is slow and makes you wish you still had Outlook no eM Client App for my phone and have to use Outlook on my phone. The features are hidden or non existed when composing an e-mail.

Multiple eMail Accounts; GUI Customization

Database design poorly written and administered. Multiple , consistent problems causing complete loss of all eMails due to database curruption. Consistently r'cvd msg 'Checking for database corruption due to improperly closed'. No other software that I use causes loss of data except emclient. Even after recovering to a prior backup ,software no longer queued new emails to respective accounts. Only visible under 'All' Very disappointed.

Unified inbox for IMAP accounts, which is not available in Outlook for Windows. Search function is excellent. Snippets are nice. Most of the basics will be familiar to Outlook users.

I could wish for more customizability of the UI and sounds. There are a few areas in composing messages that could be easier to use, like inserting/removing links.

easy to use, very similar to Outlook, the folder system

it seems to go "offline" alot and I have to shut down and restart the application. Also, has trouble sending emails with large attachments.

Working with eM Client is easy, setting it up to my own preferences is good. If you have the pro version, you can have an unlimited number of email accoungts managed through eM Client. Synchronization with web mail works flawlessly. Having worked with Microsoft Outlook and long ago with outlook express, eM Client is currently the only email management program that exceeds all expectations. Unlike web mail programs like Chrome with eM Client it is possibke to save emails to your hard drive (I prefer saving each and every email to my device).

At times it is not easy to find out how to adjust or change features, layout, and more. It's often a trial and error exercise. But once you manage to find out how it works, it's fine.

The main feature I was looking for when I found eM Client was the ability in integrate multiple email accounts from different providers into one email client. I reviewed many at the time (including Outlook)and found eM Client to be the best.

While you have added a theme builder it's not the easiest to use.

When it works it's OK and simple to use ala outlook style

They will cancel free licence after some time and ask for pro licence - they cancel it for all people I know

Light weight software. Does not take much memory on your System. Simple software with less feature. Easily available at affordable prices.

Not much user friendly as Microsoft outlook. It will make you hodgepodge as it is difficult to colour you email or add any animation. Comes with less features. If you restart your system then it will take much time to start as it keeps on taking backups and syncing your mail which is disgusting sometimes.

1. Searching is very easy in this product. You can find anything quickly. 2. Multithreading conversations is off the charts. It's much better than Outlook. They have a window on the right where you can see all prior conversations. 3. The mail handling and searching features are superior to Outlook. 4. Works well with Google Apps. 5. Calendar functionality is almost as good as Outlook.

1. Contacts are weaker than Outlook. Takes a long time to load. Not overly user friendly. 2. Must store all mail history. In Outlook, Google has a sync download that limits the size of your total inbox.

Similar to Outlook, familiar interface. Easy to find what I want to do with it.

Sometimes an email sends itself while I am typing it. One update reconfigured some custom settings I had back to the default. Sometimes when I am reading an email it will minimize and bring the application window to the foreground all on its own.

eM Client is a software used as a personal information manager. It is used to send and receive emails using an account configured to it. It also have a facility to manage a calendar, events, etc.

GUI is not that much good. Microsoft's Outlook is much better product as compared to eM Client.

Synchronizes well with Google email and calendar. Easy to use layout with all of the features I want in a combination email, calendar, contacts manager. Pulls up email correspondence chain in separate view. I can customize views, categories, themes, etc.

Does not have a corresponding Android version. The contacts sync has sometimes resulted in duplicate entries. There is a duplicates tool to remove duplicates but it would be nice to have an easier to use merge contacts function added.

Has a lot of functionality that Outlook had but is much more light weight. It does the stuff you need it to without all of the over complication of other mail clients. Especially like how it allows multiple google calendars to sync seamlessly into one overall calendar. Much better that outlooks tabbed/overlay calendar design.

Tasks/todo lists could be a little more robust. Adding email senders to handling rules could be better as well.

It is easy to use and works with several email providers.

Hard to figure out how to remove names associated with emails that have changed to different people.

Thank you for the feedback! If you have some names connected to specific email, you can remove them either from your contacts or from the Recipients history in Menu>Settings>Compose. If you have trouble removing any specific one, please send me more details to olivia@emclient.com, I will be happy to help.

It seemed to be the most feature-rich of all of the Outlook substitutes. Formatting text was super easy.

It sometimes didn't work!!! I think it would lose contact with the server. I needed something that I could always rely on.

É facil de usar, e posso ter mais que uma conta aberta ao mesmo tempo.

Por vezes sinto dificuldades em encontrar algumas funcionalidades.

Facilidade seguimento de troca de e-mails e informação confidencial

Dificuldades de configuração inicial em dispositivos móveis iOS

Facilidade de utilização do email em qualquer plataforma.

UI e UX poderiam ser melhores ao nível da utilização mobile

Ele é o melhor na sua categoria de e-mail.

Não tenho nada a reclamar do software em questão.

Organização, simplicidade e integração com restantes ferramentas office. Talvez o melhor gestor de e-mail que existe.

Dificuldades de integração em novos dispositivos e diversos problemas de sincronização.

Totalmente intuitivo, super fácil e ágil para realização tarefas de e-mail.

Em todos estes anos de uso, não tenho nada contra com este softaware.

Fácil visualização dos diretórios e pesquisas. Criação de regras para mensagens, politicas. Boa segurança com os alertas e monitoramentos.

Alguns diretórios mão podem ser excluídos e em minha opinião são imuteis na gestão das minhas tarefas.

O Outlook é claramente uma grande evolução em relação ao antigo Hotmail, com visual simples, acessível e de fácil assimilação. Tem recursos semelhantes àqueles do Gmail, interface amigável e a confiança da Microsoft em relação à segurança das informações. Passei a utilizar paralelamente ao Gmail, como uma segunda conta cadastrada especificamente para usos pontuais.

Difícil elencar pontos em que não gosto do Outlook, mas diria que principalmente a impossibilidade de personalizar a sua interface como gostaria - o que, por sua vez, o Gmail permite e torna a interação ainda mais ágil.

o manuseio é facil, acessível seja por computador, androide ou ios . e destina ao usuario otima oportunidade de se manter conectado .

resposta automática deveria ser mais atualizada e de fácil acesso como tutorial para ajudar. de forma que algumas pessoas ainda nao saiba fazer .

Facilidade de busca por e-mail especifico, controle de recebidos muito organizado, velocidade de envio, funcionalidades que transformam o software em algo totalmente único e original! Super recomendo.

É um sistema completo, preenchendo as necessidades e dá ainda mais do que promete. Não encontrei aspectos para considerar um contra.

Great range of integrations and extensions which make it easy to create meetings with integrated voice/online conference

The Apple MacBook native client is not as fully-features as the native Windows client - they should be on a par

Facilidade de uso e competência na gestão e criação de e-mails. Colar imagens no corpo de e-mail e arrastar para anexar.

O recurso de responder, responder a todos, reencaminhar e enviar em BCC ficou um pouco confuso (acho que já resolveram com a nova versão, mas não tenho a certeza)

I like the slickness of the client, all the customization capabilities, and the UI. A very solid desktop client.

When the client doesn't work, it doesn't work. The latest version seems to not have as many issues, but in the past, man setting up a new profile was always a pain and something I felt I did way too often. I also don't like the fact that it slowly eats up your hard drive over time and if you want to migrate those PSTs, it wasn't easy. Random crashes here and there and just random software quirks just make it more unstable. And uninstalling the software? Man I have no idea where those unneeded files go and they seem to pop up here and there.
