Zoho Mail gives you a clean, ad-free interface, but it seems to sacrifice a lot of features that come standard with other free email services to promote its paid services
Pros
Zoho's free email service has no ads anywhere in the user interface.
Cons
There is no way to import contacts from your social media sites.

It is pretty cool. You can use it on your iPhone or Android and you will receive all your mails directly on your device. Also, @zoho.com domail is not mainstream
Pros
Device sync & personalization
Cons
Space is ok, but could be better

It's one of the best free mails
Zoho Desk was the savior that resolved all e-mail issues from another e-mail company from MG-Brazil. The solution is very solid, 99% without downtime since the beginning, they have a solid knowledge base to assist you in case from e-mail server inexperience (like I was). The mobile apps facilitate user configuration and usability.
Pros
Easy to use. Stable. Mobile apps (Android and iOS) Two factor authentication Being part of a web based office apps suite.
Cons
Doesn't have windows mobile app. Needed to contact through e-mail once and got a delayed answer (10 working days). Luckily was a mailer daemon error that had a turnaround.

Extremely useful for SOHO (The best I know about). Great set of web solutions if you need to scalate when needed.
I like that I can get my emails here verses using a webmail platform. I love that I can also access the rest of the Zoho suite from here as well. Its very convenient and intuitive.
Pros
Ease of use and setup is a breeze
Cons
Customer support is hard to reach and is a process to resolve tickets

Give it a shot its free so there's nothing to loose.
The way I got this email, was that I purchased a domain for my business, and was surprised to learn that I received a business email with that purchase . My email looks so professional. After I got Zoho Mail, I have received so many compliments about my business email. People wanted to know how did I obtain it . After that, I put my business email on my new company business card, and it looks so professional. Since I run a small business, I want to look like a big business, and that's what Zoho Mail does for me, and I love it.
Pros
The Zoho mail system is great for a Professional Look for business I checked, and I was able to go in, and add other users to my Zoho mail. and you can create and give users their own business email for your company. There were some days when I had questions , and customer service responded pretty quickly. The email is free if you purchase a domain for just 10 dollars. The Primary user or administrator has so much control , and the security of Zoho Mail is probably the best security of any other email that I ever had with other companies. I never got an email virus, or had any problems with hackers. And Last of all, Zoho Mail is very affordable.
Cons
I would not change anything about this software. It get's 100 from me.

We used Zoho when we started our first business. Over the past two years, we've ended up migrating our other businesses to Zoho Mail, as it really is a simple option for business.com/.net addresses.
Pros
Simple, intuitive. Great directions, it just works.
Cons
We do prefer the old interface to the new one, but we understand that change happens. If we could have an option to go back to the old interface though, we definitely would.

Have utilized Zoho for a few years now. Found it available as an alternative to gmail with concerns for privacy and available support. Even though back in those times Zoho did not offer any mobile apps, I found Zoho to be be of a great value and strong potential to build a great value proposition to their users. And... My expectations came to fruition. Zoho has not let me down. Today I had to find out why one of my messages (an important one, if I may add) was not delivered to a recipient. I copied the subject, time stamp, "to" credentials and sent it to support@zohomail.com. 12 hours later I received a thoughtful and thorough explanations (with visual data backing-up) on why my e-mail WAS delivered, but recipients server filtering out and deleting it through their spam protection. Steps were offered to remedy such instance not to happen in the future. I was "floored..." Today I have noticed that their Android and iPhone apps are present and function very well. Integration with mail clients is a breeze to configure. "Cloud" and support of such is available and we have no issues using it. Overall, I'm impressed with Zoho and their growing pains are very limited. From user perspective - I have not noticed any hurdles or bugs or goofy approaches to simplified mail service approach. Their new e-mail interface was not pushed onto me, but suggested to use. Still not sure if I like it and the option to revert to "old" and proven interface is still there for me in case I change my mind. How can anyone go wrong with such service if it is FREE, I thought?! When I'm asked to provide my e-mail, I proudly spell out "@-Z-O-H-O.com" and questions follow - "What is Zoho?" My typical answer is - "One of my best kept secrets..." I was one of the first to sign-up with gmail and am glad I discovered Zoho to be one of their first users as well. Give them a try - they are working out their support streamline and response SLAs are acceptable.
Pros
Free Short support SLAs Android, iPhon apps Ability to scale up or down in pricing depending on your needs Stable mail platform Courteous and Polite associates Cloud storage Many options for businesses for paid and free accounts
Cons
None that I have found so far
