Gmail
Gmail is generally considered one of the most reliable and user-friendly email platforms available. ✅ Pros: Powerful search (thanks to Google): You can quickly find emails using keywords, dates, attachments, etc. Excellent spam filtering: One of the best at keeping unwanted emails out of your inbox. Integration with other Google services: Works seamlessly with Google Calendar, Drive, Docs, Meet, etc. Storage: Generous free storage (15 GB shared across Gmail, Drive, and Photos). Smart features: Like autocomplete, Smart Reply, and customizable filters. ❌ Cons: Privacy concerns: Being a Google product, it raises flags for users concerned about data collection and ad-targeting. Interface clutter: Some find the interface busy or unintuitive, especially with updates like “tabs” (Primary, Promotions, Social). Ads: Even though they’re not too intrusive, Gmail does show ads in the Promotions tab.
