"Email Client with Best Anti-SPAM feature, Searching is awesome"

4/5

What do you like best about Thunderbird?

The email client is neat and clean visual presentation. The SPAM protection is the best with Thunderbird so I chose this product for my Email Client need. When searching an email, it responses very fast and almost accurate. If I compare it with other free products, like eM-client and MailBird, Thunderbird is ahead.

The quick filter and using of tag helps organizing and dealing with emails quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thunderbird?

The working capability is good so unable to give any dislike but the looks (themes) should be added more often so user can redesign the appearance/looks as per their preference. The backup of emails or transfer to other email clients (like Microsoft Outlook) is not present nor easy. We need to have Outlook Express (Very old software) or some third party software for this conversion. The simple sharing of occasions among clients could be worth added if this component can work smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Thunderbird:

Thunderbird is good looking, with simple setup, E-mail client. It works good and in my experience can support large size emails storage with very good SPAM protection mechanism. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It is free with lots of features. The SPAM emails are filtered at very good level. It never crashes even when my computer suddenly shutdown (like on electricity issue). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Incredible privacy oriented mail app that has all the bells and whistles of the paid apps."

5/5

What do you like best about Thunderbird?

All the bells and whistles, for free. You can't get a better value propostion than that. I also highly value companies that respect your privacy.

It's very easy to manage 12 email addresses while also keeping everything organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thunderbird?

The UI could be a little bit more modern. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I wanted a solution for the 12 email addresses that I manage. I previously used gmail, but privacy has become a bigger priority as of late, so I went looking for an alternative. I've tried all the email apps, and some of them were great, even as great as Thunderbird. But Thunderbird is free and more privacy oriented than the others.

So it solves the problem of being able to receive and send emails without my privacy being invaded. And it has the same filtering capabilities as gmail, which I really need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
