New Outlook
maybe... just maybe
if you would give a bit more constructive feedback instead of starting all sentences with 'I want..' like a 2 year old people might explain that in this era, where we all want to be flexible in where we work, speed is key we do not aim for big, slow and clunky applications this is the way forward.
Apps will move more and more to a cloud solution I think, or a cloud look & feel with also fast releases of small pieces of work (Agile way of working... remember the fast ;-)) so WE can try stuff earlier and see which direction we are heading and -in this case- Microsoft can learn from our feedback to keep working on stuff that makes us happy.
For your convenience they added a feedback option in the new outlook
But I agree that we are missing some basic features in the New Outlook - so let's agree to keep providing them with constructive and friendly feedback 🙂 Have a great day
Cloud-Apps? Yuk, you can't work without an internet connection. An Achilles' heel waiting to be exploited.... Oh, it has been!
They are missing MANY fundamentals and we should NOT have to give feedback when they FORCE me to move to NEW (new laptops would not allow classic) after 20 years of Outlook on local accounts. Inow have no idea where my emails are physically stored. If you use new outlook with a 3rd party mailbox, eg BT, then MS copies all your BT emails over to theri servers somewhere. I have a NAS. WHy cant I leave my email data where its been for the last 20 years. Secure, backed up , on a server.
20 years of history and its a mess. Dripping out features as they go is OK only if the old systems still operate. But they dont. They removed the old.
They took away my Pickup Truck and gave me a bicycle and think it will do until they catch up.AND they want feedback? The most appalling of product rollouts I've ever experienced in my 40 years of software. And I worked in Software for all that time. As a product manager I would be embarrassed.
Either she works for them, or she lives in a fantasy world.
Giving feedback to someone who cuts back on the service they provide to me. Unbelievable.
If they want feedback, I'll give them a quote.
We are not Office users, however much they like to call us this way. We are Microsoft customers. We are not 2 years old; we are of legal age, and after evaluating a product, we pay for it and use it. And we would never expect the manufacturer to come and take half of what they bought from us.
As a customer I don't have to explain why I WANT certain features I paid for. I paid for them because I valued them. And now MS has unilaterally decided to remove them.
This is beyond the pale. And if you don't understand my annoyance, maybe you're being a bit ingenuous.
I don't have to justify or argue my needs or preferences to a vendor, trying to convince them that I bought a Rolls Royce and now they shouldn't trade me for a Hyundai.
I have already repeated myself too much, and I have already clearly explained everything I intended. If there are more people willing to lecture me on how to treat a supplier, they can save themselves the trouble of explaining their vision of life to me.
Regards.
