Work tools

Does everyone use Outlook for email/calendar?  I would love to find a better alternative.  I've found email apps that work great like Superhuman.  Superhuman is great for zipping thru 100 emails in 10 minutes but it's very expensive and it's calendar options are limited.

I'm on a Mac and I've tried using the Apple mail and Calendar.  I don't like that it's 2 separate apps.  I haven't figured out how to get meeting notifications on my Mac, only on my phone.

Anyone have a email app they love?

What's wrong with Outlook?

[Institutional Control]

Most important, I recieve and reply to hundreds of emails daily.  Superhuman uses AI and knows how I'm going to answer about 80% of the time.  Lots of hot keys to remind me to reply later or to include snippets of usual responses.  Outlook is just not that intuitive for my use.

Between using Google for email and using a Mac, I have problems with Outlook syncing and the search is limited.   Our company doesn't use Office 365, so to get the full functionality of Outlook, I would have to pay for it.  I'm ok paying for an email client but I'd like to make sure I'm paying for the best for my situation.  I've tried probably at least 6 different email clients in the past 2 years and I usually end up coming back to Outlook. I thought I'd see if there was anything I'm missing that other's love.

i bought a mac book pro a long time ago and never really learned how to use the operating system.

i decided that although i do appreciate the coolness factor of the mac book, i prefer to stick with the windows computers and apple for phone/ipad.

I got a MacBook Pro a couple years ago, having used Microsoft PCs prodigiously my entire life. I'm about as Windows as it gets, my man, is what I'm saying. But even I got used to the logic of MacOS, and anymore there really isn't anything you can do on a PC that you can't do on a Mac. The MacBook gets my vote due to its quality, durability, and reliability.

I switched over to Mac for personal laptop but I'm not very versed in it's shortcuts like I am Windows but I like the form factor, battery life, and functionality more overall. My days of needing to rely on heavy shortcut and advanced PC skills are luckily long gone.

with regards to mac reliability and quality, mine sits in my closet because the battery swoll up like wood tick.
