The only reason I used mailbutler was for its ability to automatically upload large files to my NextCloud server, FTP, WebDav etc. All that is gone now.
Pros:Non that I use
Cons:Removed upload services I used
None of the signatures that I have made through "bowtie" , the new version are working at all. I have reached out to support and have received various responses, none of them solving the problem.
Pros:Love the features, IF they worked
Cons:buggy, new version not working properly
I am using Mailbutler in my work as a sales exec every day. I is a great all-in-one package, especially for those using Mac computers. I can track my emails, prepare them quickly with templates, undo sending (a life saver not present in Mail by default!) and on top of that bcc them to my crm.
Pros:all in one, multiple integrations
Cons:subscription
The best feature of MB to me was the toolbar icon that allowed you to quickly compose an email. NowI see three tabs in this icon: Activity which doesn't seem to do anything, Notes which allows you to put a note on an email (but this icon only displays the ones you have created), and Tasks (similar to notes). So, it appears the feature I used MB for is now not there at all. :(
Pros:Notes tab might be useful, as well as the task tab.
Cons:price, the functionality I used in MB ver1 is no longer there (or at least isn't obvious).
I used the 1.0 version of Mailbutler every day. I loved how it made my my Apple Mail experience much much better. However the move to Mailbutler 2.0 has not been good. They are collecting my emails with no way to opt out. Why do they need my emails? They did not need that in the old version. Also why can't I opt out of this. This is a security risk. Who is looking at my emails. They use to be able to add reminders to Apple Reminders, in 2.0 that feature I use the most often for my workflow is gone. I have no other uses for this tool any more. .
Pros:None anymore. I need a new tool.
Cons:Email collection without a way to opt out...security issue
Use to be able to use Apple Reminders
Fantastic customer service—always friendly, helpful and responsive. They are frustrated by having to work around Apple's obsessive control culture—hence weak integration, remote web interface and compatibility problems.
Pros:You know if your mail has been opened. Set follow-up.
Cons:Slows everything down. Clunky lack of integration. Hard do find notes and follow-ups. Web interface cumbersome. Potentially security issues
they lost a lot of my scheduled emails for the entire year of 2019 , I had many scheduled emails for all 2019 for our clients and besides not delivering some because their platform needs serious work yesterday they lost all of my scheduled email and when reported to them they simply ignored, so you run a business and depend on your do NOT use this service, in theory is good but when the rubber meets the road they suck
Pros:a lot of promises not delivered
Cons:they lost a lot of my scheduled emails for the entire year of 2019
