Om eM Client
Desktop email app that also helps businesses manage tasks, organize calendars, browse contacts, add notes, chat and more.
But, I will say this: even though the issues wasn't resolved in my case, the customer support and moderators on their forum were all very helpful and responded pretty quickly.
I kept having sync error problems with my MS emails and my Gmail. I didn't have 2FA initialized so an app password was not needed.

eM Client - good email client for small office
Kommentarer: Our overall experience with eM Client is very positive. I would be happy to recommend it to any one looking for a good, reliable, traditional email client that is cheaper than Outlook. In fact, I like it better than Outlook anyway and though we now have Office 365 inc Outlook I have no intention of moving from eM Client.
Fordeler:
One of our users has a strong aversion to webmail. eM Client is a good option for a traditional email client. Very much cheaper than Outlook but looks and feels familiar so is easy to use. We move to eM Client from Thunderbird and like the integration of eM Client with Google Contacts very helpful.
Ulemper:
No particular issues. It's cheaper than Outlook but competes more with free clients so it would be nice of eM Client were cheaper than it is, but can't really complain as it doesn't cost much, is regularly updated and has given good, reliable service over many years.

eM Client is one of my most important daily/hourly tools
Kommentarer: I've been using it for years because no other email client works as well, at least for what I need. I don't want to have my email stored on the external servers, I want local copies (leaving them on the server as well for remote access) and that means a local client on my desktop computer. I combine it with MailWasherPro and together my email experience is painless.
Fordeler:
Multiple accounts, easy auto-configuration of new accounts. Customizable aliases on accounts.
Ulemper:
Confusion over how many inbox folders there are.

The best outlook alternative
Fordeler:
I literary try dozen email clients, and em client is my favorit. It's have everything I need.Have modern and clean interface? yes | support ms exchange? yes | sync with google calender? yes | have a reminder tool? yes | one time payment? yes.Overall em client have a lot of features but yet still easy to use. I strongly you give em client a try, the have free version (with very limited features).
Ulemper:
For their pro version, I have nothing to complain, but their free version basically unusable because only 2 email accounts allowed. Instead of offer free version with such limitation, I think they better offer a full free trial.

Hello beta, thank you for your review! When you first install eM Client, it will run in a 30-day trial mode automatically, and during that time anyone can test all features for free :) The 2-account limit is used only once a Free license is registered and activated - before any license is used, the trial will have all the features for any testing.

Apart from support, good product
Kommentarer: A bunch of stooges, in my opinion. Good product but silliness in the support.
Fordeler:
Great methods and ease of use in organizing emails in folders
Ulemper:
Support is close to non-existent. Good luck trying to phone or chat with them directly. Everything has to be my email and takes days.

Mid-Tier Email Client
Kommentarer:
I would describe my overall experience as mid-level. The support experience was above and beyond
I worry that the malfunctions I experienced were isolated incidents or due to some outside factor such as our computers or connection. I just didn't have the time to continue to try and address it -- I needed a solution yesterday. I would advise reading a number of reviews before making a decision.
.
Fordeler:
- Affordable fair Price. Lifetime license. - High Security. Updates. - Practical. Implementation in a reasonable amount of time. - Reduce time spent on email. Funnel all accounts and emails. - Support experience went well. - User forum. - Updated look.
Ulemper:
- Purchase needed -- features are comparable to free email clients. - Malfunctions. Performance and reliability were inconsistent. Emails did not synchronize. - Calendar and filter missing features..

A modern email, calendar and contact manager
Kommentarer: I have a very large mail database which can make it slow, however most things work very well.
Fordeler:
Integration of the different features. GMail and Exchange integration.
Ulemper:
Mail filtering is too simple. Need to be able to create complex rules, using different headers. Calendar should alert conflicts when accepting an invitation or scheduling a new meeting.

Vurderte alternativer:
Nice Alternative email app
Fordeler:
Importing my data from MS Outlook was so easy I didn't actually realize that it happened except for the prompts to let me know that it was trying. I like the layout of the program as it just make sense to me to have the emails list on the side and the reading or preview pane beside it.
Ulemper:
The only thing I would add would be a way to delete emails by single click instead of the Right Click option. Otherwise, there is not much to dislike about this app.
Harsh
Light weight wonderful mail client to start with for free
Kommentarer: A stop shop for your personal mail management. Easy navigation, better features as compared to other mail clients, professional version available for business needs.
Fordeler:
Easy installation, easy sync with your mail providers such as Gmail, Yahoo etc. Light weight, has most required features for a basic user. Good on user interface and user experience
Ulemper:
Preference management or user profile build up could be improved as per user's taste

Great Alternative to Outlook
Kommentarer: It has been a reliable and solid product that integrates flawlessly with Google services.
Fordeler:
- Fantastic integration with Google calendar and contacts - Flexible email configuration supporting most email services - Great support - Very stable and reliable
Ulemper:
- Email editor is a little limited when compared to some other options

Not recommended
Kommentarer:
Again, I like the concept and the thought behind the product but would consider it too unstable for business use. The good thing is that the repair process works, the bad is that you have to do it so often.
For a product that has so many nice features for efficiency, to have the conversation thread backwards so that for each email you have to page down to find the last response is hard to understand why they did that. They seem to be confused between a texting program that shows the most recent at the bottom (but also opens at the bottom so the most recent is where it opens) and an email client where the most recent is normally at the top so you see the response immediately.
These items make this program an also run that I will be keeping an eye on because I really like the design and if they get them resolved then it will be one of my favorites. But still cannot be recommended at this time.
Fordeler:
The concept and design of the program is excellent. At least in theory it is well thought out and has several useful features. I particularly like the ability to click on an email and see on the right side the contact information as well as every email to and from that person as well as every attachment sent and received. This is a huge feature for me. The ability to quickly generate a task from an email or create a calendar event is also really nice. Unlike some other reviewers, I found the tech support to be reasonable. Then again, I am a computer expert and provide expert testimony on computer systems and software for court purposes and so had very few issues with setup.
Ulemper:
Although I like the design of the software, I could never recommend it for use in a business. I view it more as a curiosity for personal use. The primary reason is that in the five weeks I have used the software there have been multiple instances of being unable to read email or the software attempted to display an attachment inline and so it just looked like garbage. Each time I contacted tech support and the fix was the same... either rebuild the software account or delete it and create it again. Luckily I was using IMAP so it was not an issue deleting and recreating the accounts. So, I used it five weeks and rebuilt or deleted and recreated email accounts seven times. This is a big issue. Another problem is the very strange an unusual way they display an email conversation. I wrote to tech support about this and they indicated that it is the way it is supposed to work and the way that all email clients work. Uh, no. I have not seen any other email client that displays your email conversation starting with the oldest email and continuing down to the most recent. I understand that is the way a conversation occurs and you can read it from the beginning to the end but in reality I do not know anyone who wants to open their email and page down multiple times to find the person's response. I want to see the response when I open the email. If I need to see the prior email they are responding to then I will scroll down and see that one.

With a fresh, clean look, this email client is the best I've used in a long time!
Kommentarer: eM Client has proved to be much more efficient by eliminating the chaos and stress of an unorganized email collection. It is so much easier to manage emails when they look good!
Fordeler:
The clean and simple user interface makes it easier than ever to maintain an organized email system. When viewing an email, eM Client has a handy Contact Details sidebar with other emails between you and that contact allowing you to refer back to past conversations without flipping back and forth through the inbox and sent folders. It also has the ability to keep conversations stacked in the same list item similar to how text messages are organized on a smartphone. This was a huge selling point for me as I often get lost easily between complicated email threads in other clients. Another huge bonus that makes eM Client a favorite of mine is the amount of options you have to play with. Some users might find this overwhelming or confusing but I'm a huge fan of the ability to change things like the theme, font, font size and spacing, which buttons to display, etc.
Ulemper:
Having transferred from Mozilla Thunderbird, there are still a few quirks like how it sorts Junk mail and the fact that I have two inherited junk folders and it's unclear which is being used for what. There also doesn't seem to be an automatic junk filter like other clients have but, on the other hand, this means I never miss anything due to the client marking it as spam and never to be seen again. In the detailed email list view (multiple columns), you have the ability to change which columns are visible and in which order, etc. However, this only effects the current folder and all other folders have to be adjusted independently. It would be nice if similar folder types shared the same column views to be consistent across all folders. As far as sorting goes, you have the option to flag emails or apply a color-coded category. When a category is applied, you have the option to make the text of the email change to the color of the category but when the email is active or highlighted, the color changes to the default black making it impossible to know what category the email falls under while you are viewing it. In my opinion, this almost defeats the purpose of categorizing email conversations since you are unable to search via category.

Fantastic email client
Kommentarer: I've really enjoyed using eM Client for a number of years now. Like any email client you have to spend some time tweaking it to how exactly you want everything as the default display/settings might not be to your liking. The application is very fast and updates quickly. Updates to the client come through regularly which is reassuring. I'm currently using version 8.2.
Fordeler:
I've used eM Client for about 4 years using a free license which caters for a maximum of 2 email accounts. I recently upgraded to the Pro version with lifetime upgrades as I now use 4 email accounts. It's very easy to setup and add email accounts as you'd expect. There are a lot of features available and far more than I require. I've found that the calendar integration with a gmail account has been seemless. In fact as soon as I add an event to the calendar via eM Client it almost instantaneously updates in gmail. You can access the user forum via their website and there's a lot of useful information available in case you get stuck with anything. I recently set up a signature for my business email and it literally took a couple of minutes.
Ulemper:
Like any email client it does take a little while to tweak the settings to just how you like it. I'd certainly make use of the 30 day free trial so you can iron out any little niggles you may come across. Make use of the forums if you get stuck.

Great alternative to Outlook
Fordeler:
eM Client is very easy to use, and it allows me to be able to view all of my old emails, without the need to search through archives. It syncs flawlessly with my Google mail and Google calendar.

I have previously submitted features that I wanted to see, and they were ultimately added to the program

Excellent product - excellent value
Kommentarer: I have used eM Client since approximately version 3 or 4 and I use it daily
Fordeler:
Easy to use and very flexible in the way I can search for emails
Ulemper:
The sorting of contacts is not the best. Some are found in the contacts list, others are not. I am not sure why.

Tried to get support and was ignored
Fordeler:
The software itself is good until you have a problem with it and need support. It's functional and easy to set up.
Ulemper:
The customer support is non existent. They are in another time zone which totally clashes with American time zones, so they expect you to be on your computer at 5 in the morning to get help. When I complained about it, they ignored me completely and now my tickets will go unanswered.

Hello Rebeca, so far our support is located in Europe only, but we are trying hard to help every our customer from opposite time zones, even during our night hours, and even if they need remote assistance. Another remote assistance session with you is planned for today, 9 AM your time, so I believe this time everything will be all right. Thank you, Peter.

Good Alternative to Outlook
Kommentarer: I was having trouble getting Outlook to search GSuite mail since it is MAPI. eM Client solved that issue.
Fordeler:
1. Searching is very easy in this product. You can find anything quickly. 2. Multithreading conversations is off the charts. It's much better than Outlook. They have a window on the right where you can see all prior conversations. 3. The mail handling and searching features are superior to Outlook. 4. Works well with Google Apps. 5. Calendar functionality is almost as good as Outlook.
Ulemper:
1. Contacts are weaker than Outlook. Takes a long time to load. Not overly user friendly. 2. Must store all mail history. In Outlook, Google has a sync download that limits the size of your total inbox.

Long Time User
Kommentarer: It's been so many years of use that I can't remember when I first started using eM Client. The experience has consistently improved. Having a clean user interface is important.
Fordeler:
Straight forward presentation of inboxes and emails. No fooling around. I particularly like the option of downloading pictures and control of email tracking.
Ulemper:
Nothing, everything I use works. Perhaps if I was a power user I could add something to say.

Excellent Email Client
Kommentarer: Great way to keep track of my email and contacts.
Fordeler:
eM Client is one of the best email clients on the market, your search for an email is completed. eM Client works perfectly with eg. Gmail where you can sync email, calendar, contacts and tasks without any hassle.
Ulemper:
It would be great if eM Client could save information directly to eg OneNote or Google Keep the same way as Microsoft Outlook can do.
Diane
I have really benefited from this software because I have to monitor several inboxes.
Kommentarer: I feel at ease that emails are being monitored in a timely matter.
Fordeler:
I love that I can monitor several email accounts without having to juggle multiple browser tabs. Using eM Client everything is in one central location. It's very easy to navigate and helps keep me very organized.
Ulemper:
I don't have a major con but I do think there may be future updates to this software because I manage a lot of emails and it seems to work better when I keep the emails at a minimum.

Reliable email client
Kommentarer: We use our POP email accounts with eM Client and while some other clients have stopped syncing and required logging in again from time to time, eM Client has been very stable and reliable. The dark and light modes along with the customization features make this a client almost every user can modify to their liking
Fordeler:
- customizable user interface - Task tracker is very helpful to follow up on emails - Easy to switch between email accounts - Easy to setup
Ulemper:
- Auto-sync may not work sometimes - The user interface can look cluttered at times due to the lack of separation between the sidebar and the email content

eM Client
Kommentarer: It has served my needs. I tend to retain emails I shouldn't so i have a backlog that I periodically must delete. eM Client allows me to do it fairly easily by batching them.
Fordeler:
eM Client is accessible across multiple platforms.
Ulemper:
It's not obvious how to prevent particular regular emails from ending up in the "Junk" folder.

Good alternative to Outlook
Kommentarer: Easy handling of email from multiple accounts, less cluttered interface than Outlook.
Fordeler:
I'm not a fan of MS Outlook and was looking for an inexpensive alternative to handle Exchange email. It feels faster than Outlook and managing folders is better.

It occasionally has to restart due to database issues, but it's actually less of a problem than it was with Outlook.

Easy to Use Alternative to Expensive Mail Clients
Kommentarer: A great email client with a quick-and-dirty setup for basic needs.
Fordeler:
eM Client was easy to set up and synced with most mail services with no problems.
Ulemper:
Calendar features could use some work. Some advanced calendaring features (resources) a bit clunky or non-existent.

Free email client that might work well, but not with yahoo
Kommentarer: Disappointed with the latest update, the lack of customer support, and the fact that bugs aren't fixed even after having been reported in the forum.
Fordeler:
The software is free, and offers many functions and tools.
Ulemper:
When using rules, the synchronisation of new emails from Yahoo mail bugs constantly (mixing emails, uploading them twice). There is absolutely no customer support for the free version.

Hi Christophe, we are sorry to hear you experienced issues with eM Client. Unfortunately, Yahoo has been making a lot of changes to their IMAP (including making their own API which limits sync and other shortcuts to save money on server traffic) but we are trying to find workarounds to mitigate the issues - it can just take longer when the server is doing a lot of unusual things that other servers don't. That does not mean we are ignoring the reports from the forum, we just don't have the dedicated support there to respond to each report/thread, but our devs are working on it. Upcoming eM Client 9.1 update should have some improvements specific for Yahoo which might help.
