Mailbird Reviews & Product Details - Page 4

Integration of the calendar into the mail client Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sorting and filtering needs to be improved; if the calendar could show a weekly / monthly view, would help; integration with icloud calendars should be developed and implemented ASAP Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a very good Gmail client -- fast and smooth -- and it does work very well with the various add-ons. I tried doing all of this stuff with Outlook, but it was so slow and clunky as to be useless. Mailbird does all of the email and calendar work flawlessly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Slack integration doesn't work at all. After I sign in, I just get a blank screen. I've tried this on three different computers, and just now. I tried it after a fresh install of Windows. Tech support made one suggestion 10 days ago and have since ignored me and the problem. Also, their Chrome addon is so out of date many sites (like Slack.com) do not work. That's inexcusable.

MailBird is excellent at handling multiple email accounts, handling threads efficiently. It makes it easy to keep inboxes clean (often empty!)

It is also faster than Outlook.

Tracking (seeing who has opened an email) is excellent

Absolutely LOVE snooze (where the email is hidden until a specified time, then appears at the top of the Inbox) and delayed/scheduled sending!

Integration of commonly, but lightly, used apps is a very convenient feature.

The support function is great... if you can't find a specific answer (which happens often, given this are a young and growing app), you can get response from a human fairly easily without having to wait too long. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It doesn't easily modify the dictionary, meaning that (since I use Canadian spelling with many special terms-of-the-art) I have many words flagged as mis-spelled.

The search function could be better... I often find it difficult to search for past emails which I know contain a particular word.

I wish there were an Android client (I believe it's in the works!) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I met the fact that there are several options, including access to virtual drives within the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There was a time that accessing my Google calendar was not supported. That is now resolved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mailbird makes it easy to manage my multiple inboxes, I use it for my personal and work accounts (I have 2 work emails) and I can always easily see where mail is coming to and from. The additional apps are sometimes helpful but I usually end up just going to my web browser anyway, probably more useful on a smaller screen. Also their search is fantastic, you can query for particular items quite easily (like emails with attachments) and I am always able to find what I'm searching for, unlike other mail clients I have used.

Wish that categories from outlook could appear in mailbird as we use this feature a lot at work and would love to see it sync. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The simplicity and the integration with the social media platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing. there is nothing I can specify that I don't like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like integration with productivity apps. Asana, Microsoft To do etc and that I don't have to leave the app to check in on my business social media accounts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Needing tech support. If you do you are practically on your own. Have been unable to confidently send emails since March 12, 2020 and its April 2, 2021. Sometimes they send many times they end up in draft or the outbox and you THINK your business associate has heard from you. Can you imagine the problem? an email app were the main problem is you can't send email and you can't get tech support do fix it? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Streamlined design, ease of use, affordable Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish I didn't have to pay extra for "read receipts". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like the ability to know of a recipient of the email actually got the email. This is the feature that sold the email client to me. The simplicity of being able to backup the email was another major factor in me moving to mailbird. It's as simple as copying and pasting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A lot actually. I created rules for emails to be moved to particular folders on receiving them, just for organising things. Unfortunately this is where Mailbird fails badly. If you have multiple accounts and multiple rules you run into a pretty marjor issue. On receipt of the email, the email is moved to its particular folder. Unfortunately there is no ability to see if email has arrived e.g. a number beside the actual email accounts address to signify there is actually email there. This can cause you to completely miss important email as you are not aware that email has landed. Why a simple number cannot be put beside the actual email address is beyond me and you would have imagined that this would be a pretty basic requirement.

I also disliked the Apps the majority of which are pretty basic and if you are a professional you wouldn't really use them.

Another issue is the tracking which basically sold this email client to me in the first place. SOmetimes the tracking system cannot be reached which means you cant send email. I can imagine how teses things can happen but what I can't understand is why we cant be prompted to disable it. You are left to yourself to diagnose why you cant send emails which if you aren't the most technical person you could be in trouble. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- Easy to manage attachments and images

- Clean design and appearance

- Easy to configure

- Kudos for Zero Inbox Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- Cannot select sort criteria such as subject, nor select ascending vs descending sort

- Keyboard shortcuts such as 'f' do not work

- Cannot use a key (like space bar) to scroll down within the current message without selecting it with the mouse first.

- The right or left arrow should expand or collapse a folder, but instead one must use the mouse to do that.

- The narrow scroll bar (popular now) is harder to select. Allow user to configure a wider old-style scroll bar.

- Allow keystroke alternatives to the mouse. They are faster, easier, and better for those with carpal tunnel or other such issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
