### "Great if like me you have lots of email accounts to manage "

May 27, 2019

4.0

Pros

All my e-mail in one place so I never miss a thing and multi account sending functionality with easy multi signature is awesome

Cons

I think there is room for some additional features, and maybe a better UI is needed

### "Great software!"

November 6, 2019

5.0

I have loved this program from the first time I installed it. Setup is easy, account setup wizard is a great and easy walkthrough, and it handles IMAP accounts with ease.

Pros

I have multiple accounts, personal and professional, all in one place. Outlook does now configure for some email servers, but this program come pre-configured with the correct protocols for all of the major web based email servers.

Cons

No direct interface with Antivirus. The program does not have an available interface that antivirus programs can use to pre-screen emails for viruses.

### "MailBird is a serious contender for best email app"

December 18, 2018

5.0

Overall I'm able to use Mailbird for all my email accounts and combine everything into one email app which is great. No more switching back and forth to multiple different apps.

Pros

Mailbird is a great full featured email app that works smoothly on my Windows 10 computer. It's replaced all other mail apps (including Microsoft Outlook). It has a wide variety of settings for customization. I can add emails from all accounts very easily and it works flawlessly.

Cons

I do have a difficult time adding POP3 and IMAP accounts at times. It's unclear why at this point so I'd like to see an easier way to add those types of email accounts.

### "Best Windows Email Client"

December 9, 2019

5.0

The Mailbird email client is daily used on several of our company machines and it is performing it's function exceptionally well!

Pros

A small light email client that is a pleasure to work with. Works fast, has nice notifications and cute sounds.

Cons

The only problem was the lack of any kind of rules/filters, but it was added recently after the update. It could be free so everyone could use it.

### "THE BEST EMAIL CLIENT THERE IS, WITHOUT DOUBT"

May 27, 2019

5.0

10/10 Seriously. Stop vacillating and get Mailbird.

Pros

I've used pretty much all of them over the last thirty years. Mailbird is far and away the best. Pure and simple. Easy to set up. Supremely functional. Clean and delightful. You will love it. I have many email addresses and many personalities - easy for Mailbird. You won't be disappointed, even if you have Gmail already!

Cons

I can't think of any cons about Mailbird. I have never said, 'Oooh, I wish Mailbird had this." This is a superb product. Superb, I tell you.

Reason for choosing Mailbird

Mailbird offers a simple and clean interface. If you're looking for a robust, intelligent, pure and simple mail client, which can handle multipe email addresses and personaities, look no further.

### "Very slick, easy UI and loads of compatible apps"

August 24, 2021

5.0

Very reliable, nice looking and easy on the CPU

Pros

The UI and apps. Also the "read" function.

Cons

No templates. This is a critical feature that I hope they will implement ASAP

### "Mail bird"

### "If there's one email client that made my life easier?"

May 27, 2019

5.0

It made managing emails enjoyable and with the intuitive controls and UI/UX design, it's not that hard to notice. They also give bang for your buck when you subscribe to their premium package. I've been using it since 2017 and intend to use it longer.

Pros

This would be it. I've tried other email clients and this was by far the easiest to install and sync all my accounts. Working with different email addresses in work and personal with Mailbird made everything seamless. Their customer service is also top notch. The updates are delivered in a timely manner and they care about their clients so much. And the GoT themes? Just WOW!

Cons

To be honest, there wasn't. It was my fault on why I my personal website's email wouldn't sync. As far as cons go, there is none that I've encountered.

### "Logiciel de messagerie "

### "My Email Manager!"

May 28, 2019

5.0

I have used OutLook but didn't need all the "bells and whistles" it provided; MailBird provides a stable, happy medium of reliability and features.

Pros

Easy to learn and use; can be modified/personalized; works with all my email services.

Cons

Would enjoy being able to automatically identify selected incoming email sources and have them marked as "important" or "starred" for quick identification when looking at new emails. All unread emails are identifed with a "blue dot" and also are mildly hightlighted - this highlighting is unnecessary and sometimes makes locating the last opened email difficult.

### "Most Functional E-Mail Client"

August 5, 2019

5.0

I have never used another e-mail client, since I met Mailbird. I hope thats enough.

Pros

I have been reaching my e-mail account by Web browser for along time. I discover Mailbird and everything changed. Most functional e-mail client I have use ever. User interface is so simplificative. It has not so many buttons on UI like others. Interface not exhausting for eyes. Especially Ideal for intensive works. You can focus directly e-mail contents. Dark Theme and many extensions makes it more cool.

Cons

Twitter extension does not work and internal İnternet browser should be more functional.

### "Great overall"

May 27, 2019

4.0

It is excellent. Just the text issues I mentioned above are my complain.

Pros

How well designed it is. Simple, clean customizable with colors etc. And also the fact that I can very easy use all of my email accounts at one place.

Cons

Zooming in the emails, makes text hardly readable. (sometimes even when not zooming att all) Especially the ones I am actually writing to send. This is an issue all the time and no update is fixing it so far. It is a big fat bug in the software. (I am using sometimes 4K monitor with 125% scaling in Windows10 so that could affect this behavior, but even when I go to my Laptop with native 1080p with no scaling at all, same thing happens.) So please take a deeper look at this and try to solve it.

### "A must email client"

July 27, 2021

5.0

Pros

Mailbird has a very good easy interface. One does not get lost. It manages folders very well. It has very advance search facility. It is fast and has some very good controls in mail management specially while sending mails

Cons

It does has option to block mails by any functionality. This is important. Mailbird must also think about implementing VPN as standard functionality. Most important it should allow user to create alias email ID .

### "This is a great mail application for pop or imap accounts"

February 15, 2018

4.0

Pros

What I like most about Mailbird is that it's a free alternative to purchasing Outlook. It is a neat, stylish program that is practical and easy to use.

Cons

I had issues when switching from a pop account to imap, but finally resolved that issue. Then we switched to Microsoft Exchange and I was unable to fix the account.

### "Not Just an Email Client!"

May 27, 2019

4.0

As a freelance writer, I manage multiple email accounts for personal and business communications, not to mention to-do lists, calendars, and notes. Previously, this would require several apps and pinned tabs in Chrome, which are a pain to track and clutter my space. Mailbird ties everything up nicely.

Pros

I like that Mailbird ties together all my email addresses and a few other web apps in just one program. Honestly, this single application has replaced about half a dozen others, which keeps my taskbar and systray cleaner. It also seems to have a lighter memory footprint, at least compared to opening multiple apps and webpages in Chrome.

Cons

Could use a few more customizable elements and integrations, specifically chat integrations, but these aren't deal breakers.

### "Pay once and never have to pay for your desktop calendar, email, todolist again."

July 2, 2021

5.0

Pros

Similar to Outlook but it can be purchased as a stand-alone, which Outlook can't. No need to worry about continually having to pay for another upgrade, pay once and forget about it. Lifetime free upgrades. Can sync to google calendar, Todoist, Facebook, LinkedIn, among other apps. Works well with digitally signed emails.

Cons

So far, there is nothing that I do not like about Mailbird.

Alternatives considered

[Thunderbird](https://www.capterra.com/p/230507/Thunderbird/)

Reason for choosing Mailbird

Mailbird works with my digital signing certificates better than Thunderbird did.

### "Pray you don't need tech support"

April 2, 2021

1.0

I think it is the BEST email app from a feature perspective BUT what's the point if you can't send an email. What's the point of any feature if THE main feature - the confidence to hit SEND and know the email is sent simply does not exist. It is a hit or miss. What's the point if tech support for ONE YEAR has failed to solve the problem.

Pros

Integration with productivity apps and social media apps

Cons

Used to be the search feature but it was vastly improved. Now it is tech support.

Reason for choosing Mailbird

Feature Rich options but particularly the productivity add in tools

### "Clean, basic mail client"

March 14, 2018

4.0

Pros

I haven't had any problems using Mailbird. It is very clean and the basic version is free to use. It is the best, easiest-to-use client I have found so far.

Cons

It is annoying that it seems every few days there is a new required update for small updates, such as fixing a bug for a certain device.

### "The best email client software"

May 28, 2019

5.0

I tried Mailbird several years ago and was amazed at the feature set. However there were some minor growing pains to get to where we are today. That's where Mailbird support stepped in. They made me feel like their most important customer and worked diligently to solve all my issues. I am a lifetime license holder and would never even consider using anything else

Pros

I love the ease with which I can manage all my email accounts in one place. The feature set Mailbird provides is amazing. I can't imagine needing anything else.

Cons

On occasion the software disconnects from email servers for Hotmail and AOL.

### "A Great Email Client"

September 9, 2019

5.0

I love using Mailbird and have paid for pro versions of its application on every computer I own.

Pros

Mailbird can truly be an all in one productivity solution for you and your business. It integrates email, Evernote, Todoist, and more into a single application that easy to learn and fun to use.

Cons

One of the only things I wish Mailbird had was the ability to have multiple email signatures that can be switched through from a single email address.

### "Gotta Love It !!!"

June 21, 2019

5.0

My experience with Mailbird has been great. Before I bought it, I couldn't figure something out and so I contacted Mailbird and sure enough, the next time I opened the app there was a very easy to follow answer from \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] waiting for me. I did not have to wait long for an answer.

Pros

The features. There is a feature for everything under the sun. Although I'm a pretty basic person, I do have a calendar installed.

Cons

No least about it. I love how straight forward everything is.

Reason for choosing Mailbird

I chose Mailbird because of ease of use, great product support and price.

### "One Inbox To Rule Them All"

September 9, 2019

5.0

Mailbird allows me to easily manage multiple email address at an affordable price.

Pros

Mailbird is great at consolidating all of your emails into one application. It's super simple to set up a new account.

Cons

I wish I had the option to upload my own icon for each email account. Unless I want to set up a Gravatar for every email address I am stuck with using the app's built-in icons. Sometimes it is difficult to distinguish which email address you are viewing. Life is already complicated enough. No need in adding more confusion.

### "The Unified Inbox Heavyweight"

May 27, 2019

5.0

Pros

By far, my most liked feature is the instant search at the click of the mouse. I found it by accident one afternoon. I clicked a profile icon and BOOM! all the email exchanged between Dominos pizza and myself was right there in front of me. Granted, it was mostly a one sided conversation on their part, but my personal trainer seemed to be pleased to have all the evidence of how I gained that five extra pounds right on the screen.

Cons

I most admit, I don't see the benefit of the Services tab. Its little more than advertisements for services with no perceivable discount offered. Perhaps this is how Mailbird is able to offer such great software for so little?
