What do you like best about Mailbird?

Not a bad product but there are others out there that are just as good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mailbird?

Their support is unresponsive and slow. LIFETIME users are excluded from any updates unless they agree to purchase a new lifetime license for version 3.0. They SAY you can keep 2.0 but they are discontinuing support and will no longer provide any updates. Also, tried to download 2.0 on my computer and it automatically installed 3.0. I'm done with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mailbird solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is not solving any problems so no real benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mailbird?

Mailbird is user friendly and low cost with many advanced features. It was very quick to set up with my IMAP, POP3, and Gmail mailboxes. It is less complex than the desktop Outlook which I used to use. Outlook has many more features, but Mailbird has everything I need.

I like how I can see individual inboxes or combned inboxes.

From the Mailbird interface I can access other apps including Google calendar, Trello and ChatGPT Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mailbird?

Occasionally Mailbird crashes for no apparent reason. Sometimes the app is slow to startup.

Search is fast, but when emails are found in searches it is not clear whicih folder they are located in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mailbird solving and how is that benefiting you?

Wanted an uncluttered, easy to use email client that is not bloated with advanced features that I don't need.

Had problems syncing Outlook calendar with my Android phone calendar. Mailbrd solves this by integrating Google Calendar into its interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mailbird?

It's probably the fastest way I've found to process emails bar none. I connected an account from one of my team that they were supposed to manage and it had 1000's of unread emails. I got through all the junk in about 4 hours and the rest of the day to repond to the still relevant ones. This is the only system I've found that works this fast for me Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mailbird?

Weirdly, too many integrations. I like that they have them, but I found for me that using the extra stuff was harder than opening native apps. Also, I have an issue about once a quarter where it stops sending emails when I reply to them and I have to remove the profile and re-add it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mailbird solving and how is that benefiting you?

Email processing in one place so I don't have to log into multiple systems and it makes processing email lightning fast. I often reply from other systems because of the issue I have with emails not sending but it's so fast for processing that nothing else makes sense. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mailbird?

Easy to setup, Google Workspace integration and HTML signatur Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mailbird?

Buying a lifetime licens, when Mailbird was version 2. When a mail that that version 3 is coming, but your licens dont cover new versions.

Thats no big deal, but now they remove features from version 2, and apprently bug and security fixes are also going away. From a "lifetime" licens. I brought a new licens, to avoid moving software, but that might be nessesary if it happens again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mailbird solving and how is that benefiting you?

I need a desktop client for my users, that support HTML signatur and Google Workspace implementation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mailbird?

Get all mail accounts in the same folder Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mailbird?

I have a paid version and cannot create templates for repeatedly used emails. You cannot search for an email across multiple accounts, you have to search each email account and folder one at a time. There is no "undo" button. In these ways, it is inferior to Thunderbird. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Serves as a single collectio point for all my email accounts Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mailbird?

In a previous world, before Mailbird torched its reputation for the sake of a dollar, the client was pretty useful and I enjoyed using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mailbird?

The forced-click of their ads in a client I paid for, the reneging on the lifetime subscription that I paid for, the snarky tone of their customer service, the pushing of extras like mail tracking as an upsell, the lack of respect for their customers, their shady business practices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mailbird solving and how is that benefiting you?

Mailbird has solved no problems and stimulated a deep sense of regret in me for having ever given them my money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
