Overview of the two

GmailGmail is Google's free email service first released in 2004. You can access Gmail from your computer's web browser, many third-party apps, and Android and iOS mobile apps. Not only as an email service, but also works with Google Drive, Calendar, Documents, etc. Outlook Outlook is a desktop email client and webmail service. Developed and sold by Microsoft, it has over 500 million users worldwide. Outlook has free and paid versions and also includes contact, calendar, task management features, and more. So let's see how Gmail and Outlook differ.

1. Features

When comparing individual features of Outlook, Outlook beats Gmail. With automatic email management, a cleanup feature that lets you delete multiple threads of emails, and customizable templates, you could say that Outlook has everything you need. Outlook's archive folder is more functional than Gmail's archive, allowing you to single out only "archived messages". Outlook also has contacts and calendar features on the same interface, making it easy to schedule meetings. Gmail Gmail, on the other hand, puts all your archived emails in a regular folder (all emails), which can be confusing, especially if you're new to Gmail. Another disappointment with Gmail is that calendars and contacts aren't integrated within the same app. Rather, it's a separate app integrated with Gmail. Navigating from app to app can be tedious and frustrating if you're writing an urgent email. When it comes to features, most people would prefer Outlook.
