Stone C
Leadership Coach
5.0

Stone C.: Hey, I'm Stone, I'm a leadership life coach, and I want to give ProtonMail five out of five stars. I have used a lot of email programs, Gmail of course, iCloud, probably Hotmail and YouTube back in the days, but I keep moving on, and I think ProtonMail's the latest and greatest. The main thing that got me to ProtonMail was they offer end-to-end encryption, which I thought was really important. I like the increased privacy, just on a regular basis, and I like the ability to send encrypted mail to other ProtonMail users. You can send encrypted mail to folks using other apps, though it gets a little tricky. But that's what brought me to it, and then the reason I stay, I've been a paid user for years now, is because the customer service is amazing, just amazing. If I have any kind of question or problem, an actual human being emails me back, which is phenomenal. And the app keeps getting better and better, easier to use, really pleasant, it's a great experience and I couldn't be happier with ProtonMail. Really simple, very intuitive, the interface is going to look pretty familiar to other email apps, particularly when you're first getting into it. As you get fancier and get into all your options there's great stuff there. They have tutorials, and they also have little widgets that will help you import things, like your contacts, or even your email from other accounts, though I used the opportunity to declare inbox zero. And so they've got everything right there to help move you over and get you familiar with the new software set up, your filters, your flags, your folders, all of that business, really easy. I would say go for it. I wish more people would use ProtonMail. I'm excited to give the endorsement here because I think it's a great product. I think particularly the way the world of business is going, privacy becomes an ever greater commodity, and knowing that my email is secure and that I can offer that assurance to my clients is excellent, is really valuable. And for me as a business owner, knowing that if I have a problem, or any kind of slight snafu, I can get in touch with a real human being who's going to find me solutions and follow up with me to make sure the solution worked. It's like having additional staff, it's really fantastic.
