The responses from those who monitor Outlook is corporate cute. And expected.

But the new Outlook is so Very Terrible, that those of US who loved and have been a part of Hotmail since it's inception , might be lead to believe that the R&D dept. or hired developer Never used it in their lifetime? ??

This new Outlook is a lazy, pathetic designers attempt to.......do nothing!!

What did you make better??

NOTHING!

What did you screw up??

  • The easy one glance ability to either read " said email " or delete in up to  a 10 email selection at once.
  • The ability to easily place emails into folders.

Why explain it,..WE all know the new Outlook is a " Microsoft is done with your stupid account....." phase out.

Which in actuality is a shame from a business perspective.

Hotmail, may not be Facebook popular? 

But, there ARE many longterm users!!!!!!

Microsoft,  you are forcing Your Clientele to depart and sever ties with you.

I left the iPhone world long ago for Samsung / Android.

Why???

  • Freedom, and elimination of loved apps being manipulated.

Microsoft is creating the Same Problem.

IF, the business is really about money????

And Microsoft " thinks " it needs to change??

Why not do the smart thing.........

Ask your client base what WE like, and what WE think you do well. Then work from there.

But this new Outlook??? Sorry but, IT SUCKS!

    The New Outlook referred to in this discussion, the version that many recent posters really want to return to, is now history. Please take note of the date when a thread you may be thinking of replying to; if it's more than a few months old, the situation has changed and any comments in it may not be current.

    I agree with the above message.   I turned on my computer this morning and Outlook was different.   I want the old one back.  I looked for the button on the right it was not there.  I hate the new outlook.

    I agree!!!!!!!!!

    I am so pissed.  I "upgraded" from Office 2013 (with Outlook)

    Outlook F'n sucks!!  I spent days trying to get it to work properly (wouldn't sync or very slow, some mail went , some didn't...)

    went back to Office 2013, set up Outlook and worked perfectly first time!  

    And it should work first time and perfectly because Office has been around for about 20 years!   Working should not surprise people!!

    I canceling my O365 and going back to Office 2013.  Screw 'progress'
