Stable piece of software that does what it promises and without glitches. Also personal enough to listen to its clients and users.

I have had them all over the past years and this software covers all the bases. It is the best solution on the market at the best price point.

Customer service is taken very responsibly and the constant updates indicate a serious commitment to keep up to date and continuously improve the product.

In this era of remote websites, its wonderful to be able to take back control and know that it is safe.

The low cost option for Lifetime support & upgrades. The support team release several updates a year with improvements & new features.

For this EssentialPIM does a great job as it gives you full control over what and what not you want to synchronise and where.

Synching with my smartphone is difficult at times.

The online Forum is responsive and easy to use.

In previous versions had problems with andorid syncronizations...it was fixed.

EssentialPIM keeps my work schedule perfectly organised and help in keeping all my contacts in one place without mess. I like the way it keep particulars sorted.

The thing that I like the most about EssentialPIM is that so many of the functions are thoughfully integrated into the software.

Notes, really helpful, use it daily to store different kinds of information from simple notes, guides to full web pages & pdf documents. Tasks - using them to track project progress.

Very useful for organizing ideas, data, research. Well divided out, ability to use different colors.

I am using EPIM pro for a long time and it comes as the best organizer to me. I really appreciate the task management efficiencies of the software. Overall  feels great using the tool.

EssentialPIM offered an interface close to the one I have used for nearly 30 years with an integration to a portable device that offers a comprehensive synchronization package.

I love having everything in one application, notes, passwords, calendar, etc. You can customize to your needs by adding or removing fields.

I am happy with the overall experience with using the program.

And the price was outstanding, making it a very good buy.

Everything in one application. Easy to use and the ability to sync with phone.

For my money, it has everything Outlook has that I need and use - at substantially less expense - AND it is just as visually delightful, if not more so, with colors used, etc.

After search for a long time software we can use in desktop and phone to manage daily tasks...finally founded essentialpim. Easy to use and sync between devices it really works.

I like the all over design and layout, ease of use and stability, a great tool in my business.

Great support for an intuitive product that is consistently developed.

I have used this software as my primary contact manager. I most like the ability to create custom fields that fit my insurance agency.

The worst part is simply the setup, not because the software makes it difficult though. It's just a process that you'd have to go through with any other software of this type.

I usually use a program for a year or two, get bored and then find something else. I've been using EPIM since version 5 or 6 and have no plans on changing my PIM program.

It’s the best professional level software for any office or school. Very reliable and super user friendly.

I grew up with this software, it was taught to me at school and I thought it was the only way to do things. I was in love with Microsoft 365, its useful, accessible and easy to use tools.

I love that the programs integrate seamlessly and can store files online in the SharePoint platform for ease of use when sharing documents for collaboration.

It's very easy to use and the fact that you are able to not only switch between them very quickly and seamlessly, but the fact that they integrate with one another is amazing.

Overall experience is great start from installing to using and updating yearly in the organisation. It just takes care of its own when it comes to updating which is great.

It is terrible on mobile or even if you just have the admin panel taking up half of your screen. Can be frustrating to work with.

The overall suite is nice to collaborate with fellow employees on specifically Microsoft Teams is amazing for collaboration.

My overall experience is good  I would recommend this program to everyone. I have had a positive experience  with this program.

If I have no internet connection then I an not able to access anything which can be frustrating if I am out somewhere with no connection.

My experience with Microsoft 365 has been great. I really like using the software because it helps me with business letters and eeseach.

It's nice to have a one-stop-shop for all of your needs. That makes it super helpful because it works across platforms.

Non profit pricing is excellent. Love the Office 365 Exchange much better than on-site.

Customer Service is included in the cos,  I have had to call them a couple of times and have been taken care of by a real person and they have resolved whatever issue I was having.

Everything you love about the disk version of Microsoft but in the cloud. Super easy to use, super easy to share - and you can plugin in Grammarly.

I like some of the apps that you can integrate with the system. They are superior and more advanced.

There are many things that I love about this program. The price point is fantastic, especially considering all the resources you get for a small monthly fee.

It's super easy to setup for my employees. I get the peace of mind they are using the best.

And all includen in the same plan. I use it in my work space and its amazing, the flexibility and the integration is amazing.

I like the ease of use of Office 365. It is a great value for the money and helps me keep all of my business information easily accessible.

The auto quarantining is a bit aggressive and sometimes has false positives. As an admin I can release them so no email is lost, but still a bit annoying.

I love that they offer Office 365 for free to use, and I love the ease of most of their apps, such as Microsoft Word, and a few other docs.

Doing the same search query on desktop vs. browser will consistently return different results, which is particularly frustrating. The calendaring system has also gotten worse over the years.

The overall experience has been wonderful. Even the customer support was a pleasant surprise, compared to others.

It was a godsend to have 365 in place, because I was able to move my business out of the office as needed during the more challenging springtime, and now have the option to work from home as desired.

The microsoft suite is amazing because it is compatible with pretty much everything now. Making documents is great because it has review things where you can send things to other people.

Microsoft Support is horrible and it takes an incredibly long time to get through to them if you have a problem.

Overall Microsoft 365 is an amazing product with great features and wonderful customer service.

The customer service staff is amazing and well trained. My experience with Office 365 has been amazing and I will continue using this product.

It’s been a great product and I like having mag programs to get various jobs done. Price point is good and quality is great.

The worst thing would be that its hard to recover lost excel documents as they don't show in recent workbooks.

I love that this program is very easy to use and has lots of functionality. I also love that there is a place to find answers when necessary.

Great suite of products. With Excel, Word, and Outlook being at the forefront of the great softwares that are part of office 365.

Ease of use and the ability to communicate and share your screen with coworkers. Great part of the Office 365 suite.
