"Efficient email management across multiple domains"
What do you like best about MDaemon Email Server?

The thing that makes MDaemon Email Server special is how simple it makes managing email. It has heaps of spam filtering and security features, which provides you a sense of security when you actually handle sensitive communications. I also like how it tethers with other programs such as our CRM to multiply productivity. That central management of multiple domains is a real plus in making our administrative tasks much simpler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MDaemon Email Server?

The only disadvantage you could consider while using MDaemon Email Server is the slow availability of customer support option. Using the whole platform, I have little troubles, but when we have something more specific, it is difficult to find clear solutions in the documentation. It may take more time than it is expected to get a response from support, and that led to a few days based delays in some technical issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effective software providing spam filtering and antivirus protection"
What do you like best about MDaemon Email Server?

The MDaemon Email Server is a very good application and undoubtedly its major advantage is the ability to provide very good protection against spam together with very good antivirus support. One problem that has been solved is the ability to easily synchronize with CRM and calendar systems that has improved our communication flows. The user interface is quite friendly, meaning that managing multiple email accounts becomes a comfortable process. These have proven to be very beneficial for us, as they have improved the security of our email communications and made our work much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MDaemon Email Server?

A disadvantage of MDaemon Email Server is that the program’s performance considerably degrades when dealing with a large number of emails and may include a delay in the delivery of messages. Further, some of these useful enhancements are sometimes hard to set up, thus been quite a challenge to learn. These have caused a few hitches in the email flow that has called for troubleshooting and sometimes take additional time. This has at times made our IT support operations to be a little slow or even less efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Really reliable solution for efficient email management system"
What do you like best about MDaemon Email Server?

MDaemon Email Server’s advantage that I like most is its stability and the strong protection measures. The server is extremely reliable, and is rarely down, which puts our emails at our fingertips. The main functions of the spam filter combined with the virus protection have substantially cut the amount of spam mails, which is a plus in my view. Further, the ability to integrate it with our CRM and Calendar application makes the communication and scheduling of clients and many team meetings much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MDaemon Email Server?

What I found unsuitable about MDaemon Email Server is the user interface which is not as natural and smooth as in modern email servers. This makes it difficult for new users to master the software as they take longer time to gain ground in their use of this software. Moreover, the mobile app is not as feature rich as the regular desktop version, which can be problematic for the team members who require consistent email access even when they are not in front of their computers. These may not be big problems, but indeed have an influence over our productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very powerful and feature rich whilst still being extremely easy to manage and maintain"
What do you like best about MDaemon Email Server?

I've been using MDaemon for 25 years, give or take.

It's packed with useful features in addition to simple email, but it does this whilst still maintaining a small footprint and modest hardware/OS requirements.

It's also very easy to manage, and its use of plain-text config files and a flat file message storage system makes it extremely customisable as well ... I can't think of anything I've not been able to achieve with it, even in some complex scenarios.

Highlights:

- Unlimited email aliases per mailbox, without affecting your licensed user count

- Ability to alias to external email addresses, so you can set up forwarders to email addresses outside your system without using up a mailbox licence

- Powerful mailing list functionality

- Powerful content filter to allow a huge range of operations to be performed dependent on specified message/header contents

- ActiveSync option for full mobile support

- Choice of web-based and/or local GUI management

- Excellent anti-spam/anti-malware/security functionality

- Frequent updates and product improvements

- Integration with MailStore email archiving software

- Outstanding customer support Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MDaemon Email Server?

It's getting increasingly hard for MDaemon to keep up with the low cost and ubiquity of Microsoft Exchange Online / 365 services, which obviously offer great Office and other services integration. However, the developers are constantly adding new and improved functionality to stay current and relevant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Emma Washington of MDaemon Email Server

Thank you for your kind words Phil, and thanks for being an MDaemon Email user for pretty much as long as we've been in business - not many customers can say that! I will certainly pass along your positive feedback to our awesome developers and support staff!

"An agile and easy to use email server tool"
What do you like best about MDaemon Email Server?

I loved how well in integrates with our MS tools. It has native integrations for pretty much every MS software you can think of, which made it much easier for us to plan tasks based on our mail actions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MDaemon Email Server?

The interface is very very old. It's way behind other server providers. It makes it harder for us to onboard new hires. The IMAP configuration window is also unnecessarily confusing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kevin Beatty M.S., IMC of MDaemon Email Server

We have updated MDaemon's Remote Administration interface. If you would like to provide additional details regarding the onboarding process, please send an email to marketing@mdaemon.com.

"MDaemon Private Email Server"
What do you like best about MDaemon Email Server?

MDaemon's detailed log files enable an administrator to trace any problem email or non-delivery and show their customers any remedial action they need to take. Security is a high priority within MDaemon, blocking rogue IP addresses, filtering out Spam and bogus attachments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MDaemon Email Server?

There's very little to dislike about MDaemon. Probably the most daunting aspects are ensuring all setup features are properly enabled and for an inexperienced Administrator, this may seem a challenge. However, MDaemon's support is excellent and with their help and guidance, the ideal setup can be rapidly achieved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Emma Washington of MDaemon Email Server

What do you dislike about MDaemon Email Server?

Spam Protection is confusing and not a best in market, it could be a lot better.

Edited: In the new version some parts of Spam Protection have changed and I think in a good way, time will say... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Emma Washington of MDaemon Email Server

I'm very glad to hear that our spam protection features are working better for you! Check out our new Outbreak Protection (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-S0d5RW_BNw&t=2s) and our Data Query Service by Spamhaus (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orH8BcElRv8) for even more protection.
