## Reviews

### "A Chat-Like Approach to Email Management" — 5.0/5

> **Jeffry** | *4 December 2018* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love the approach that Spike take on email management. It uses chat-like interface from mobile chat apps that we grow to love so much. It minimizes the clutters that we get from normal email conversations. Plus Spike is free for non-business email accounts.
> 
> **Cons**: Spike could take hints from other email clients to improve its user interface.

-----

### "Not your regular email management app" — 5.0/5

> **Amy** | *15 May 2024* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Spike gives me the liberty and flexibility i need to not just handle mails but also to collaborate with colleagues, share files amongst ourselves, organize chats and enjoy the use of A.I in increasing my productivity.
> 
> **Cons**: Absolutely nothing\! It's amazing good and easy to use.

-----

### "Spike alters the conents of you mail or charges $144 to "allow" you unaltered email." — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *19 January 2022* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It looks nice. Pretty UI. &#10;Email organization is ok for a single email address \*IF\* you don't care about your in-email branding or your own signature.
> 
> **Cons**: The problems start with multiple accounts. I tried with my personal one, my company one and one I use from a client of mine. The organization got very confusing when one person wrote to more than one of my accounts. It got worse when I wanted to write a new email to a person who wrote me at more than one account. It was an utter mess.&#10;&#10;But the reason I give this such a bad review is that what they did not tell me was that they remove my branding - my signatures and replace them with their advert. This was not clearly stated anywhere - I discovered it when I wrote myself a test. I did eventually find in their pricing table that Free accounts don't get "custom signatures". I also found that to use MY branding I am expected to pay them $144.
> 
> Terrible. Their business approach is misleading - they actually alter the contents of your emails without clearly stating they will do so.

-----

### "Great value for money" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *17 May 2022* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: That I can see when someone has opened my email and I can respond to emails as if I'm on whatsapp. Not be a robot like when I use other sites.
> 
> **Cons**: When you send the email to multiple people, I'd like to see which individual viewed the email. Not that if one person viewed it, I'll have the impression that everyone else did which is false and feels misleading.
> 
> I've been using it for less than 6 months but I've found it so easy and user friendly. Feels like I'm using whatsapp for email. Which is so great.

-----

### "Go To Tool for managing your work/home" — 5.0/5

> **Niko** | *10 August 2022* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: the ability to have it setup on multiple devices so you have access to the information when you need it.  Being able to "PIN" items for quicker access.&#10;also the ability of finding any attachment based on a specific contact.
> 
> **Cons**: having the ability to use the "REPLY ALL" being more accessible and not have to hunt for it.
> 
> So far I love being able to manage multiple calendars/email accounts and using the "NOTES" feature for having information at a quick glance.
