I've been using Zoho's email for a few years now (only because they used to provide free custom domain email - brilliant growth tactic!). The service itself works perfectly and integrates well with Apple Mail (albeit they changed the server configurations over the years two times if I recall correctly). Though their web client leaves some to be desired, it made very good progress and I believe it would be comparable to Gmail in the foreseeable future. As for their other services, I have not tried them but I would guess that copying Google Workspace is the general theme of development. Bigger picture I think it's great Google Workspace and Office 365 will have real competition, especially on the pricing front, that is outside the US (which means it is influenced by different interests and less likely to join the monopoly) and it will benefit everyone involved.
- cobertos 4y agoI have not had good integration experiences with Apple Mail. Their service doesn't support mail push last time I checked, so you end up waiting 15 minutes or so for messages whenever Apple Mail decides to poll IMAP
- JustSomeNobody 4y agoIf you mean using Zoho from Apple Mail app, you need to use active sync server at Zoho. THen you get push.
- cobertos 4y agoThank you, this is what I was looking for!
- eastbound 4y ago> I believe it would be comparable to Gmail in the foreseeable future Story of every email provider ever: Soon to look like Gmail. At one point you have to admit that Gmail is the best (meanwhile designers at Gmail are trying to remove features from the UI). Looking like Gmail doesn’t even guarantee success: Marissa Mayer made an exact copy of Gmail in Yahoo Mail in 2014. It didn’t take off.
