## Reviews

### "All your email accounts and your social networks on a single screen" — 5.0/5

> **Rafa** | *04 July 2023* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It greatly streamlines the task of managing my professional contacts on a day-to-day basis. It has become an essential app for me.
> 
> **Cons**: Perhaps the speed of operation is a bit of a weak point of this software. Although by no means is it serious enough not to use it. When this aspect is improved it will become, in my opinion, the market leader.
> 
> It saves me a lot of time, seriously.

### "Great product until v3.0" — 5.0/5

> **Cory** | *31 October 2023* | Building Materials | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Mailbird was my preferred email management tool. I always preferred it above Google, Outlook, etc.
> 
> **Cons**: I have a professional license. That lifetime professional licence does not include the features in the new v3.0. Mailbird has not lost all of its usefulness.
> 
> Love it until v3.0. I was excited to test new versions and use 3.0. My license doesn't support it.

### "An ABSOLUTE Waste of Time and Money" — 1.0/5

> **W Lawrence** | *14 October 2023* | Mental Health Care | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It looks good until you have to use it, then the pretty interface becomes very inefficient..
> 
> **Cons**: Limited move capability.  You can move but only a few messages at a time.  The lack of continuous synching with Google Calendars.  If they deny this, I have the email from tech support that says they do not do it.
> 
> I have wasted more time with this program than any other.  Thunderbird is a much better interface.  Tech support is useless.  You will have to ask your question 3-4 times before they actually read it and answer you.  They will send you a GPT response that has nothing to do with your question or the person answering cannot speak English or is not reading the question.

### "Inbox zero\!" — 5.0/5

> **Stacy** | *15 September 2019* | Events Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The best thing about this software is the unified inbox. I have twelve email addresses, and when using other similar desktop email software, I would have to click on each email address to view the inbox of each. With this, it combines all the new email together, which helps to keep on top of all my emails.
> 
> **Cons**: The desktop software is spot on, it is hard to find a fault. My only wish is that there was a mobile version of this software for my phone.
> 
> Mailbird gives me what other desktop email programs didn't, a chance to stay on top of my emails. It's fast and with the unified mailbox, emails don't get lost in the shuffle. When my team first switched, we were able to import all the email settings from the other mail program we were using. Setup was instant\!

### "Mailbird Is A Fantastic Software for Managing Multiple Email Accounts" — 5.0/5

> **Jeremy** | *25 May 2020* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love the unified account that allows me to view an inbox for all of my email accounts. The emails are then color coded so I know who it's being sent to. My other favorite feature is being able to click an email and have all emails from the same sender provided immediately in list format. This allows me to quickly empty my emails and overcome inbox overwhelm =)
> 
> **Cons**: There are no cons on this software that I have found personally. If I could request one feature, it would be to match the categorization of emails like you see in Gmail. At least provide the option to have your categories match how Gmail sorts them and/or provide a filtering option to either view or not view those emails in those categories such as newsletters, financial, etc.
> 
> I have more emails than any human being should have. Mailbird has helped me to tame this monster and saved me a TON OF TIME doing it. Thank you Mailbird\!
