That's OK because Macs and iOS devices come with really good client software from Apple - Mail and Calendar - that let you leave Outlook and OWA behind.Īdmittedly, Apple's other client apps are a mix bag: Also, it can't access notes or tasks (neither can OWA). And though the new, slicker but less-capable Outlook for iOS has improved since its poor debut, it can't handle POP emails (common for Internet service providers), out-of-office notifications, or anything other than basic contacts settings. Outlook is slow and confusing on the Mac, as is OWA on iOS. It's long been the standard in Windows, but if you use a Mac or an iOS device like an iPhone or iPad, you know that Microsoft's clients are not very good on those platforms.
Practically any corporate user these days works with Microsoft's Outlook client for email, calendars, contacts, tasks, and notes.
