Having a Priority Inbox and an Others inbox has allowed me to split what’s important from what can wait Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don’t dislike anything about it, it’s a great email client on all the platforms I use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Spike has nailed it with a simple intuitive interface that works seamlessly across multiple platforms and devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As I get used to all the features of Spike I still need to access Outlook and I often find there is a lag/delay in synchronising between Spike and Outlook. Perhaps I haven't found it yet but the lack of integration with Zoom and other third-party apps does make setting up a meeting in Spike more cumbersome and I tend to still revert to Outlook for calendar tasks and monitoring.

Spike helps me communicate with my friends and work on school projects. The upside of Spike is that it is very helpful when I need someone to talk to. Thank you! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The downside of spike is that it glitches a lot. The only problm I have with spike is that it glitches and beacuse of the glitching sometimes I dont hear my friends say anything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Spike is great for having teams messaging threads in a chat app style but with an email foundation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Pasting texts from other apps is confusing, and it doesn't work very well. As long as I am aware, they are no labeling options for messages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
+ This is a fantastic email program! It has completely transformed our traditional email experience!
+ It's super-fast, cool, and fun.
+ A package of features.
+ Their Clean UI and quicker user experience were particularly appealing to me.
+ I use both their desktop and mobile programs, which are both fantastic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- Email Signature in HTML is not there.
- On Android, it requires a google account to log in in order to connect. Embedded login might be better userfriendly Maybe Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
* It is convenient when emailing with a specific recipient looks like a single thread. My students sent me thousands of emails, and it is very useful to see all the messages in one place without the risk to lose something.
* Spike gives free premium for students and educators. They recognize you as a student or a teacher by your university email. (However, mine was not recognized, so I contacted the Spike team. They answered in a couple of days, but for today, I haven't got my free premium yet — and so I can't say what I will like in this plan).
* The notes in the email client. And they are very fast and easy to create and edit.
* You can pin a thread.
* Unified view. All emails from all accounts are in one place! Now I don't need to check each and every one to identify the current state of affairs.
* Even the free plan has many useful features. This makes Spike a good addition to the usual web interface of your email account.
* doc and pdf preview
* infile search
* modern UI
* quite lighweight Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
* There is no solution for Linux. I use two operating systems, Windows and Debian, and sadly, I can use Spike only with Windows.
* Sometimes some emails do not show in Spike, although I see them in Gmail inbox. Maybe this is due to the limited amount of memory for the free account... Hope this will be fixed when my account is registered as an education account.
* Uncomfortable label management. I often put labels on threads, and then put off them. And in Spike this process is not so easy and obvious, as in Gmail. I would like to add a label in two clicks.
* There is doc and pdf preview, but other text file formats are not previewed. For example, .C, and other files with program code.
So, now I still need to combine using Spike and Gmail in a browser.
* The benefits of the education account are described not entirely clear. In addition to my work email, I actively use multiple Gmail accounts for my work — to differ the emails of different types. But it's left unclear to me if I'll get all the premium features only for my work email or for every account.
* At "My Account" tab I need to log in to see any info. Although I already logged in when added my accounts to Spike. And also there is no mark of the current status of my account, only buttons to subscribe. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like how Spike has so many features that you don't have to go back and forth between applications, I love how i can email, write notes, check my calendar, message my friends and team members all in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish it can handle bigger file sending, that would give them more lead compared to other platforms or atleast have the program automatically zip a unzip folder to help with file size. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The addictive connection and engagement made easy in an immersive environment that makes email fun again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I believe the UI/UX (User interface) can be improved upon to match the utility and promise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Keep all comms from an INDIVIDUAL in a thread. Forget about subj. lines. Lose repetitive sigs as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
html edit instead of rich text mode for super granular capability to style emails. And templates. Does this thing have a templates function? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
