Email management platform with search & filter capabilities

About Thunderbird

Thunderbird is an on-premise email management platform designed to help businesses securely handle, search, organize, archive, and filter email conversations from within a unified platform. The Mail Account Setup Wizard allows professionals to set up existing user accounts with information, such as email address, name, and password.

Thunderbird enables businesses to maintain an address book with details including images, birthdays, and contact information. Managers can access emails across multiple tabs, archive conversations according to requirements, and utilize timeline and filtering tools to retrieve specific emails from the database. The system also indexes conversations and reminds professionals to add attachments before sending emails.

Organizations can filter emails based on new messages, contacts, tags, or custom criteria. Thunderbird also enables professionals to organize conversations using folders, create to-do lists, manage multiple calendars, and invite contacts to events.

I have been using Mozilla Thunderbird in a daily basis for years. I have seen how committed Mozilla Thunderbird team is to keep Thunderbird updated with the latest technologies and features. My experience is great so far andI totally recommend it to my clients.

Pros

I like the user interface, the add-ons and extensions, and how easy is to manage emails from my different online properties and domain names.

Cons

There is no cons. Mozila Thunderbird is great.

I would be lost with Thunderbird. Just to have all email accounts in one tool, without the weird look of web based clients is so much better for me.

Pros

Basically to be able to combine all email accounts in one tool, set up fast filters to manage and archive everything, drag & drop mails between accounts.

Cons

Nothing really. It has all the features I need and comes with good add-ons.

Overall Thunderbird was an okay software if you're just starting out but as your company grows I suggest investing in something better.

Pros

I like the fact that Thunderbird was free and worked for the most part.

Cons

I dislike the fact that Thunderbird was more of a home use and not a business quality email client.

Thunderbird handles multiple email accounts. There is even a chat feature. It sorts my email. It removes the Spam and Junk correctly. It archives and stores my past emails and keeps them where they can be searched and accessed at any time. A life saver finding old emails once again!

Pros

Thunderbird is so easy to setup. Also if there is an option you want included such as a calendar or todo list or whatever, it integrates easily with add-ons and tools. There is nothing missing when it comes to this power tool!

Cons

The software has never let me down. There is nothing to say about "like least". It works. It is easy to learn. And use it every day. And have for YEARS.
