The raffle was fun! I will say though, the mail service has been down twice in the last 2 months, and as a relatively new user, I've been less than impressed.

I will say though, the mail service has been down twice in the last 2 months, and as a relatively new user, I've been less than impressed. I don't think I would use it for any commercial undertaking.
- ziddoap 2y agoI've been with them from pretty much the start, and would say that two outages in the a few months is pretty uncharacteristic. While the recent downtime did indeed affect my company, overall I've been really happy. Not being at the whim of Google's "oops we deleted your account" or "oops we've banned your account" has given me enough peace of mind that I wasn't too ruffled over the outages. Of course there would be a tipping point if the outages became a trend, but I am optimistic. My company also is fairly small in terms of mail volume, so that plays a part in the decision-making.
- thoughtpalette 2y agoGotcha! I appreciate the perspective from a commercial user and it seems like the downtime was fine for your use case. Overall I've been generally happy with the service, and utilizing the additional tools (pass, drive, vpn) has been great. Probably shouldn't have posted a negative leaning comment for a topic that was positive, it just reminded me of the downtime. FWIW I would recommend purchasing a subscription.
