"Buggy licensing manager and lack of support is maddening"

What do you like best about eM Client?

It's a useful tool for aggregating multiple email accounts into a common inbox. The user interface is attractive. It's nice to have access to calendars and appointments without having to switch apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about eM Client?

Em Client's approach to upgrading licenses may make sense to someone. But I've yet to meet that person. After paying $29.99 to upgrade from v7 to v8 and receiving an email confirming my purchase, their glitchy licensing system failed to update. Instead, I get a message when opening the application that my license only covers up to v7. Would you like to email with a human at Em Client to sort this out? Tough luck! - you have to pay additional for support. So now I'm out $30 AND am locked out of my email client. And there's nobody to help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Not As Good As Outlook, But A Good Try"
3/5
What do you like best about eM Client?

EM Client has some of the same layouts as Microsoft Outlook. I do like the folder structure and that the context menus are similar. Sending and Receiving mail is straightforward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about eM Client?

Overall, the interface at times is confusing. It is not readily apparent where to go to setup rules, and when you get into rules, it appears complicated as compared to Outlook. Also, the interface itself cosmetically is not appealing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very good email software for business and personal use"
5/5
What do you like best about eM Client?

I used Microsoft Office 2016 Pro and earlier versions for years. I was looking for an alternative email software supporting POP3 and have support too after Outlook decided not to work and there was no support. As a business owner, it is crucial to have a reliable email service with all the bells and whistles. I checked a few options, and money was not a question or obstacle. Online email management is not an option. After looking at and testing software, I ended up buying eM Client. The transition was flawless, and all my email accounts set up themselves automatically with minimal data input from my end. Well, this never happened before with Outlook because their miserable, hard to figure out set up protocols, and the non-stop requiring a Microsoft account. Using eM Client was very simple to adopt because of the close resemblance to Outlook. Technically didn't have to learn anything new. The customization of the software and apperance is way beyond my expections and bottom line, I don't need to be logged into any stupid account to have dark mode. I'm using eM Client for more than a year, and it is very stable and reliable. I can only recommend it, especially for business owners who need proper, secure software without the hassle. The other good option is that you can pay for lifetime updates which include tech support too. You can't beat that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about eM Client?

The only "dislike" from my end is the lack of compatibility of Microsoft Office Word and Excell, but eM Client (thank god) has no affiliation with Microsoft. To be precise, some customers of mine like to send tables created in Word or Excell, and I have to copy-paste in Word to edit and copy-paste back to reply or new email. It is not a big deal because I have to keep those tables anyway, but it would be easier to do that on a fly. Probably there is a way to do it but I just don't have the patients to figure it out.

What do you dislike about eM Client?

"Good tool, one glaring short fall"
3.5/5
What do you like best about eM Client?

Clean, easy-to-use UI with an excellent cross-section of features/tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about eM Client?

They used to support an EAS server interface but have recently discontinued the feature. They have indicated there are no plans to reintroduce it, even though there remain a large number of email hosting services that continue to use it as their primary full-service interface (mail, calendar, and contact sync).

"How do I get emails singularly?"
2.5/5
What do you like best about eM Client?

My computer man put me on to it. He suggested it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about eM Client?

Can't get emails to and from one person singularly. They all group together. Problem at the moment is that if I get an answer from an email it often goes in the sent mail instead of the inbox, so I don't see it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
