"Efficient"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Fastmail?

It is a relatively secure email service that can integrate with other products, and it provides end-to-end encryption with 5 GB of storage even as a free user. It is a great option for owning multiple domains. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fastmail?

They don't have any improvements in the past years and no feedback channel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Fastmail solving and how is that benefiting you?

Has been great, the web interface is fast and with CalDav and CardDav you get your calendar+contacts in your favourite apps Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy, flexible and secure email solution"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Fastmail?

I found Fastmail easy to setup starting from scratch. The account creation was simple, and the process guided me through until my email was up and running. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fastmail?

Sometimes the web interface for administering my account stops responding. It's done this on different browsers, different systems. Not a huge problem but I'd like to see it fixed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Fastmail solving and how is that benefiting you?

The problem I'm solving with Fastmail is getting email up and running for a new domain without the time and expense of using an on-prem mail server. Having the solution completely contained with a single vendor has made management much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Spam issues from our own email"

2/5

What do you like best about Fastmail?

It is a mail system that you can compose emails, receive emails, and send emails. You can make folders, and sometimes it follows the rules you set up for them. It will put things in the folders you created rules for a percentage of the time. It has a large amount of storage as well, which is good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fastmail?

It forgets rules randomly and puts some emails in folders and the very same sender it puts in the spam folder. We have worked with them to try to correct this to no avail and have given up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Fastmail:

Gmail works better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Fastmail solving and how is that benefiting you?

We get emails and send emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fantastic partner for the past 2 years"

5/5

What do you like best about Fastmail?

Fastmails service is a powerful, privacy focused alternative to other business email providers. Migration from GSuite was easy and support have been been nothing but fantastic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fastmail?

The android app needs some polishing to get to the same standard as their iOS one but other than that, i've found FastMail a far better alternative to Google and Zoho Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Fastmail solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's helped me move away from google to a more privacy centric firm with better customer service. A team who make me feel like i'm a valued customer for a comparable price to what google charge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My name is Sam Im publishing Fastbiz mall marketing .We are publisher "

1.5/5

What do you like best about Fastmail?

Secure E-mail provider Simple, Intuitive, Fast and Secure. No unwanted advertisements and it provides you one of the best privacy feature so far. It gives you a lot of benefits and the application is truly flexible that suits to your preferred settings. Thank you Fastmail team for giving us this wonderful application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fastmail?

Now they're billing you two years in advance at $55. Keep it, I will get my mail for free elsewhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Fastmail:

It's a very good service overall. Very customisable and configurable, works well as a GMail replacement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Fastmail solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have been using FastMail for few years, Its been perfect, never had a problem, I cannot find anything to criticise it. I have used support a couple of times to query odd emails and they were brilliant.

I don't find many of today's products and services without fault, but I can't find fault with FastMail. In my view definitely worth the money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good once going but import tools need improvement"

4/5

What do you like best about Fastmail?

It's fast - much faster than Google Apps - and has a far less cluttered layout. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fastmail?

Importing from Google Apps requires too much research to be done by the end user. They really need to streamline the process. Obviously no support for Gmail extensions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Fastmail:

Worth it provided you don't use Gmail extensions Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Fastmail solving and how is that benefiting you?

Just fast email. JMAP looks cool in future once more clients support it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Fastmail?

Ease of use, web interface, speed, uptime. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If you need simple, fast ad-free email I think you're in the right spot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
