Also the outlook app for Mac is not very good and is not friendly as it is on a windows machine. > > Overall it is better than gmail for work, because there can lot of back and fourth in work emails and Gmail is very bad if you're going through a big long thread of email, Gmail will confuse which email came befor which one while in outlook it is very organised where the thread emails shows up in sequence of the time it came in your inbox. ----- ### "Outlook: You know what you're going to get going in, and its good" — 4.0/5 > **Joel** | *23 April 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Look and feel and functionality is comfortable and familiar, especially for those who have long-used non-browser based email clients. > > **Cons**: Fairly regularly stalls when attempting to access or update various information (such as distribution group members) within the app. > > While there are occasional annoying nuances to Outlook (delay in server response, random anomalies), it is a solid, well-tested, tried-and-true email client that is comfortable and consistent in its design and usability. ----- ### "Best Combo Email\&Calendar" — 4.0/5 > **Anna** | *14 April 2026* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Microsoft Outlook is the best combo for managing emails and calendars in the same tool. It’s simple and has all the features that make me love Gmail. > > **Cons**: Microsoft Outlook shows ads all the time in the free version. Once, I tried forwarding to another inbox and I noticed they didn’t ask for enough information, so security is not the best. ----- ### "Adequate Outlook" — 3.0/5 > **Gordon** | *10 December 2025* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The set up and daily use is very simple and ituitive. Its gret that all you emaila ddresses and be held in one place for easy access from one point > > **Cons**: It does not perform very well with Gmail addresses. Some time they send without issue but more often tan not they get stuck and dont send, > > I would say the performance is adequate as long as you are not using Gmail. All the other providers work without any issue ----- ### "Business Friendly" — 4.0/5 > **SURYA MOULI** | *25 March 2026* | Food Production | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Very good for commercial use(office use), I see most of the offices and organisations use Outlook for their usage > > **Cons**: Bit expensive compared to other service providers such as google and other providers. Upgrades were not user friendly as well > > I had Outlook for 8 years, Mostly I'm easy to catch up with outlook upgrades but, some i have to look up for a video on how to do particular things ----- Page: 1 / 100\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/1010311/microsoft-outlook?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/software/1010311/microsoft-outlook) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | ja | | ----- ## Structured Data
