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!

    Nope..... don't agree. Gmail is as bad if not worse than outlook. Yahoo has serious security problems, and both are a pain in the **** to use. 

    Look at gmx.com Their platform is crisp and basic. Is easy to navigate, has all the options, ability to make and use folders

    Is all and more that the original hotmail was... as well as good mobile version for smart phone.

    And it is free.

    I've used Outlook 2010 for several year, it was perfect. After upgrade to Outlook 2016 it's a disaster. This application is simply unusable and terrible. Everything is more complicated and longer than in Outlook 2010. I use Outlook in very intensive way, so GIVE ME BACK the 2010 version.
