Top Rated eM Client Alternatives

EM Client has some of the same layouts as Microsoft Outlook. I do like the folder structure and that the context menus are similar. Sending and Receiving mail is straightforward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Overall, the interface at times is confusing. It is not readily apparent where to go to setup rules, and when you get into rules, it appears complicated as compared to Outlook. Also, the interface itself cosmetically is not appealing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

eM Client offers a clear and easy-to-use email client. It allows for the display of multiple email adresses.
Next to this, eM Client offers many customization options, allowing you to create a personalized email program.
Searching for emails was always a drama in other email clients, but in eM Client this is no issue!
Also, the agenda tab allows for needless switching between emails and appointments. You can even make an appointment / meeting directly from an email by right-clicking it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The downside is that eM Client is a paid email service, opposed to free email clients like gmail.
Also it could be helpful to add in a FAQ section directly in the email program, instead of redirecting the user to an internet page. This makes it possible to fix most problems, even without access to internet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've used the free version for over a year and briefly tried the paid version, but ultimately reverted to the free platform. I find eM Client a nice, well-rounded and customisable choice of email software; nothing particularly special. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Although still installed, I rarely use the platform anymore, primarily due to the fluctuating lag it seemed to cause for me despite a relatively good spec PC. I did have settings in place to regularly back up and archive two email accounts, but anytime I wanted to open it up and send a quick email, I'd get stuck waiting for something to load, so a browser shortcut has taken it's place.

I am having all of my emails in one place. no need to log in to Gmail, and Outlook and switch accounts. I have so many emails that it's easy to check them. and I can search all of them at once! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish they would save user info online, sometimes I need to format my PC, and whenever I do that I need to connect all of my emails again. It takes a long time. I want to log in to my account and have everything setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's easy to use. It can connect to a variety of different accounts. It has a calendar interface. It connects to other messaging apps too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The blocking bugs are a deal breaker. Frequent sync or connection issues with Google. If you don't use it for a while then start it up again, you get reminders for every past meeting that you "missed" while out of the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

nicer look and feel than outlook, feels much more mature than gmail or other web clients. I used this for gmail and outlook accounts; google email,calendar and contacts with only email for the outlook.com account. unfortunately my work security rules prevent its use on my work account. i would love to see what a mobile client from emc would do! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
syncing can lag behind that of web clients and mobile clients. logging into pc in the mornign, the em client seems to stop syncing over night when the pc sleeps and never start up again. deleting a message on a web or mobile client can take almost an hour to reflect in em while showing almost immediately between (for instance) gmail's web client and the ios native email application; sometimes em must be restarted to show changes made in other clients however changes made in em reflect promptly in other clients.

I've been able to connect eM Client to Google, outlook.com and O365 accounts. Compared to Outlook I really like the UI customizability. The newer editions of Outlook tend to waste a lot of UI space so I like eM Client's ability to easily adjust just about anything in the user interface. The "smart" folder capability which aggregates email from across all connected accounts is nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
With just about any thick client, it's not quite as responsive as using a native web app. If I'm checking a single gmail address, using the native gmail web app is faster. But when needing to monitor more than one email address, eM Client makes the process much better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's a useful tool for aggregating multiple email accounts into a common inbox. The user interface is attractive. It's nice to have access to calendars and appointments without having to switch apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Em Client's approach to upgrading licenses may make sense to someone. But I've yet to meet that person. After paying $29.99 to upgrade from v7 to v8 and receiving an email confirming my purchase, their glitchy licensing system failed to update. Instead, I get a message when opening the application that my license only covers up to v7. Would you like to email with a human at Em Client to sort this out? Tough luck! - you have to pay additional for support. So now I'm out $30 AND am locked out of my email client. And there's nobody to help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am now licensed user since version 7. eM Client is one of the best email clients on the market.
Now Release 9 has made the GUI more beautiful and added nice useful features.
Big thanks to the eM Client Team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
So far I do not see any dislikes. Will come back if there are any. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that it's free and it comes with basic features. Paid versions have more in-depth email features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In a perfect world I could access the premium features for free but once I grow my business I'll upgrade to take advantage of these Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
