Massive waste of money, very few features, impossible to find emails

I find it very difficult to search for emails in folders. It’s tedious to have to search folder by folder instead of having a broad email search function that spans all folders. This has been a massive pain, I can no longer organize emails in folders because of the hassle it creates to find them again.

The fact that emails can’t be combined into threads (like every other major email platform) is a huge inconvenience. I frequently miss replies in threads with multiple recipients. Overall, the email service is bare bones and lacks so many features. The price, in no way, reflects the quality of the service.

I was disappointed with the flakey customer service I received when first setting up my clinical hushmail and things have not improved. I regret paying the annual fee rather than monthly. And to top it off, shortly after I paid the full annual fee, a Black Friday deal was announced for new customers. Savings I didn’t get to take advantage of.

Reply from Hushmail

We're sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate you sharing this feedback.
For clarity, Hushmail does support searching across all folders, including advanced search options, although we understand this may not align with every workflow. Our approach to features like message threading is intentional and designed to prioritize privacy and compliance, which can differ from consumer email platforms.
We regret that your setup experience did not meet expectations, and we have reached out directly to discuss your concerns, including support and plan options. We remain open to continuing that conversation.
Thank you again for your candid feedback. It helps others decide whether Hushmail is the right fit for their needs.

Easy to get started but hard to create my form

Easy to get started. Responsive support from staff - at no cost to me. But it was hard for me to figure out how to create new forms. I had to pay $25 to one of your staff for a form. He did just fine but I want to be independent, I wanted to copy my PDF from my hard drive onto the form builder or template. It took me a long time to get it right with just one form. Wish it were more intuitive or easy.

Mostly great

I have had no problems with hushmail except I was unable to see an attached document. The sender decided to send the email to a different email account. That only happened once. I certainly hope it doesn't happen again. Otherwise, it's been great.

I love how easy it is to encrypt…

I love how easy it is to encrypt emails. I will admit it would be nice to be able to color code and flag emails.

Thank you for your review. We're so glad to hear you're finding it easy to send encrypted emails.

You can flag emails in Hushmail to help you keep track of important messages. If you prefer color-coding, you can do so through a third-party email app such as Apple Mail, which works with Hushmail accounts.

We really appreciate your feedback.

Do not trust this- if your password fails you loose everything! NOT SECURE!

I used this ( payed for) my entire clinics email needs. Then recently my password ( I did not forget it ) stopped working.
I am left with ongoing emails to faceless customer care that answer nothing
... zero help--
The jist is -" you cant access your email" - tough were not going to help. We designed a system that does not allow it and sold it to you. We take no responsibility.

There is no number you can call and its too bad.

I regret starting with them .. have you ever heard of a company you pay for, or an agency or a bank you cant reset your password and you loose your entire email contents ?
... This by anyones standard is not a secure customer based business it is a LIABILITY.
Who would trust a clinics email on a platform that with the disfunction of a password you loose everything..... dont make the same mistake I did
