Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is highly available and scalable. It is also highly reliable. I don't lose any of the messages or emails. If there is an issue where the email sent operation failed, Amazon as a platform ensures that the send operation is retried, and the email reaches its destination. This way, it is highly reliable.""Amazon SES can handle a high volume of emails, making it suitable for organizations with large email lists or that need to send a large number of emails on a regular basis.""We use the tool for transactional emails and marketing.""Amazon SES is very easy to configure.""The most valuable thing is that emails sent through SES have a delivery rate of greater than ninety percent.""There is no need for me to set up security.""The product is very user-friendly.""The best feature is that Amazon SES provides verified email messages."

"The most valuable feature of IceWarp is the chat rooms and file-sharing, they are useful. It is convenient that everything is in one place. You can easily share and collaborate documents, making the program's unity a significant advantage.""The solution's voice services work well for our company.""IceWarp has multiple applications that are easy to use for many people.""An effective, functional, very good tool for controlling resources.""The solution has a very good log-in to the UI when compared to other solutions.""The product is used very extensively in my company since we have around 1,500 users using it. Also, there is no requirement for any administrators to manage the product by the people who own the solution.""Its price is the most valuable. It is definitely one of the lowest price solutions.""The groupware module is the most valuable feature."

Cons
"When we first set up an email on Amazon SES, they had to verify it, which was not fast enough.""The product should improve technical support.""There is room for improvement in the support. It's just that customer support, though good, takes time to resolve issues.""The only issue is the price, which is far too expensive.""Email service is definitely a requirement from an enterprise standpoint. Many organizations have their own on-premise email services, which take a lot of memory, backup, and other resources. If we can have a completely managed backup solution where we have a tiered backup or a tiered archival to be able to retrieve emails, it would be great. I would like to be able to retrieve emails in real-time (hot retrieval), over the 90-days period (warm retrieval), and over the one-year period (cold retrieval). It would be useful to have tiered backup and retrieval. It would help us in managing emails better and have a better backup solution. So, backup is something that we require.""It would be ideal to have detailed data and reporting on email opens, clicks, bounces, and other metrics, as well as integration with other business intelligence tools.""There is room for improvement in the scalability.""I would like to see detailed reports on email success and failure rates."

More Amazon WorkMail Cons →

"Although the documentation is extensive and in depth, you must familiarize yourself with it before taking full advantage of the product.""I would like to have a trial for mobile applications and more documentation similar to Google Drive with mobile applications.""The solution should improve the mailing list feature. Google has a similar feature where you can automate sending files to different people in a sequence, but that feature is no longer available in the current version of IceWarp. Other features may also have been removed in the current version.""The tool's configuration capabilities are not straightforward. Apart from that, if I want to archive emails into a vault so that they can be retrieved again later, the integration doesn't work, and IceWarp crashes.""Although it is not a tool, video conferencing should be scalable and operate in a professional and efficient way.""Support should be improved. Most of the time, the queries are not resolved within the SLA.""The exchange compatibility mode is rather limited. Their technical support can also be better. They only provide online support, and there should be some option for escalating.""Our customers sometimes have problems receiving mail."
