Ever since I’ve came to the company as a sole Sys admin (where there was none before) I’ve tried to keep it simple as possible… everyone has MS Office Home&Business, I’ll move everyone to Outlook from the damn Windows Live Mail… and sure thing, I’ll also install Outlook on their phones whoever wants to have Email access on their phones.
And it’s been a mess… people on Windows complaining that they dislike the new Search inside Outlook, sometimes when they try to start it up it doesn’t even open but hangs as a dead process so I had to put a shortcut on their desktop that does ‘taskkill /IM outlook.exe’… it happens on both old Windows 10 setups and brand new Windows 11 setups of all kinds… Also they’re pushing their new look a bit by bit and I’m thinking of migrating to something else before it even happens
On Android sometimes it has hard time syncing with IMAP and the search is also broken… it doesn’t work at all if only one IMAP account is logged in, so I had to login a dummy IMAP email account as a second one because only then you get the search option of which directories to search for and only then it works… idk how else to explain this but I found many people complaining about the same thing and using a solution like this for years…
So, what are your top alternatives for Email clients? It doesn’t have to be free (but a one time payment would be preferable), but it has to be a stable and simple experience for the workers on both Windows and Android.
