Experience with typical large company email: regularly unavailable. Silly limits on attachment size. Limited control. Crap UI. Down regularly. Takes days to get a new email set up. Takes day to troubleshoot problems (ie. emails that become unavailable). Costs heaps, need dedicated "IT Support staff" (don't get me started on that).
Experience with Gmail: pay 20$ for heaps of storage. Very large attachments no problem. Almost never down, and when it is, it's taken care of pretty soon.
- smiler 16y agoHas some annoyances though - for example you can't send a batch file in an attachment. It's obviously a good idea for security reasons, but when you're a bunch of developers, it's kinda useful!
