Gmail is simple, its easy to use and best of all it has the most advanced spam filters in the market. By that I don't mean that it doesn't only do a good job at removing spam, but it also is nearly flawless and letting email through to the inbox that may otherwise be categorized as spam on other email services.

For instance, in my business I am often needing to email customers with quick little attachments such as pdf's for review and a quick response. When I see the customer has a gmail associated email address I don't have to worry. On the contrary, when I see a customer has a hotmail address... I almost always have to call and tell them to please check their spam folder and most likely my message is in there. I'm not a spammer, i'm sending an email that the customer requested and needs to view, i'm not sending to more than one person at a time, and its not advertising related so it makes no sense that my email should end up in spam. Again, with Gmail this is never something I have to worry about.

Great product, great interface, and free (well... advertising funded which they don't abuse). I don't need to tell you to check it out, because chances are you have and feel the same way I do.

They did an awesome job fixing my car. Tina, service manager, was great about getting it in and getting the right part. She even handled my insurance company getting them to cover the part.

You don't have any privacy when it comes to Google.
No matter if you use the search or mail or youtube, they track everything and "try" to help you.
Well mister google i don't want to be helped!

THE best e-mail program. I like how it groups email chains together; how you can label emails, so the same e-mail can have multiple labels; the easy search function. Another great product by Google.

I am a survivor of sexual assault. I had been making legal complaints and emailing a number of official authorities and legal attorneys. Gmail described this as spam and decided to block me out.

It was very easy and it went very smoothly. I can't never get the PayPal to get to work for me. I gave the site my PayPal email and it doesn't work ever. So I chose Amazon this time.

Gmail has the inability to change a telephone number in already existing email addrresses. When there is a 2 step verification to sign in it will only ONLY use the existing phone number with no chance to use the email address when I had chosen to get the 2 step verification and TRY ANOTHER WAY is just that there is not a chance to use another email address another number. For those who do not quite understand what I am saying: if i change my password for my email and chose to leave the 2 step verification (which is already chosen by google) YOU GET LOCKED OUT if you had changed your phone number prior to that - there is no way of getting google to acknowledge the new number for the old email address thus YOU GET LOCKED OUT

I ONLY use gmail due to not being able to find another kind that does not require a mobile phone & has free large storage (so far). I correspond with many government agencies. One of them is the US Dept of Defense. When I try to reply to one of their emails, Gmail refuses to let me reply. They have been reported to the DOD for that problem along with a screen shot.

I send large amounts of emails along the lines of tips/stories, problems & issues as well as networking types. I send these to the media, both locally & around the world, government leaders & politicians, including the President's Advisor, FEMA, FBI, DHS, OIG, USFA, etc. I have to put the standard disclaimer on every email: "Gmail is a dinosaur, forgive the unprofessional appearance!"

Forget about the so-called "draft" feature. It rarely works. I see that gmail unbelievably has a high rating on here. I can only imagine it is their own employees putting them up. When I'm composing & want to go back to a paragraph & edit something, I click where I want to go. It does NOT go, it skips all over the document. I type 140wpm & gmail is a total waste of time when I have to keep re-composing & constantly have to correct gmail's technical problems. If others are using gmail for resumes, etc., anything OTHER than actually emailing, maybe that's why they're "so happy with it". There are quite a few government agencies currently trying to make gmail work in Colorado, but that is about to change. They're griping as well & demanding a better email service. As for giving gmail a capital g, they don't deserve one.

Tip for consumers:
Use Gmail ONLY if you have NO other choice. It's a humongous waste of time for journalists, reporters & government workers.

I'm on sitejabber TO find a good email service. Gmail needs to have REAL reviews on it, not those fake ones. The FTC has recently warned large companies like Amazon, Apple, Walmart, etc. for posting these fake reviews with the consequences of fines and/or jail time. Go get them, FTC! https://www.businessinsider.com/ftc-warns-amazon-walmart-hundreds-companies-fake-reviews-face-fines-2021-10

Gmail is so easy to use and have more programs included combined. Not only can I save files to my Gmail account, I can create files and other things. Awesomeness. Would definitely recommend.

Gmail is an excellent service. It's fast and has a great interface, however everything else is questionable to me.

1. It has a tendency to get spam at certain volumes in only certain amount of times. Often, they are fake Chinese companies trying to sell fake products. I only expected this from Yahoo, not Gmail.

2. The idea of having to have a Google Account just to use Gmail is irritating. It would've been nice if it was an option to merge all Google Services to one account, instead, they force users to create a full Google Account just to use Gmail.

3. Along with the Gmail account, you're also pushed to use Google's failed G+ connected to it. And deleting the G+ account still makes it complicated to change, remove or edit your "Gmail" avatar image. It was buried all the way in Picasa Web Albums (what the heck?)

4. Google Drive is necessary for files over 25MB which is convenient but come on, really? Users are forced a Google Drive account into their Gmail "Google Account" so you have to upload your files there. Plus, 25MB is such a small number when even one PDF can exceed that limit. They're purposely luring users to use the Drive feature.

Overall, if you just want a good email service and don't care about your privacy or the additional Google Account, this is for you. If you value your privacy and only want a good email service, look elsewhere, although there really aren't many options.

A very good free mail service. I found only one down side and that it's a little slow on slow connections. POP and IMAP services work great though on slow connections.
