Outlook is among some of the best email service providers. If you already use Microsoft Office 365 for official purposes you know it is a bundle of many useful apps including Access, Excel, OneDrive, OneNote, Outlook, PowerPoint, Teams, and Word.
Since “One Outlook” recent leak the company decided to release the next generation abruptly. This newer version is released for Office Insiders Beta Channel users to experience new Outlook.
The recent Outlook update for Windows client is targeted at businesses and academic uses. Clients who are already using paid plans of Microsoft 365 can preview this new version.
One Outlook update
Technology news website – ZDNet highlighted Microsoft updated and modified Outlook including new themes, reminder, single view calendar, email and to-do items, and easy access to cloud-based files.
It is not the final version yet, that’s why it is released to Insiders Beta Channel. However, some features are lacking in One Outlook, the most prominent are the multiple accounts option and offline support.
According to some Insiders, the One Outlook has a minimalistic design language and beautifully contrasting clean lines.
One client for all
The main idea behind this Outlook version is to combine all scattered services in one platform. While it will be served through a web app as the foundation for these services.
Initially, Microsoft named the client Monarch during its development phase. The aim was to unify one client across every platform ranging from macOS to Windows and even the web.
However, all users are not excited about it, and it is obvious. Change is always difficult, especially when it involves something as rudimentary as an email. Yet it is safe to say there are mixed opinions about leaked One Outlook.
At the moment Microsoft customers are concerned about web app. As it will consume memory as well as affect internet speed. Ever since Google has locked horns with Microsoft the two software companies compete against each other on almost every platform.
Now Microsoft Outlook is competing against Google Workspace . As One Outlook has not been rolled out to the public only then we can tell for certain how tough the competition is?
