Reviews of RMail
Most useful, most affordable e-security software on the market
Comments: It's been extremely useful for giving my peace of mind as a small business person.
Pros:
-encryption is top notch--I know my message with not get hacked -proving that my messages/contracts were received is vital for my business -it's affordable and easy to use
Cons:
I wish there was a plugin for outlook for mac
Best for external transactional communication
Comments: It is a special email platform for any level of email security specifications.
Pros:
I liken RMail to a bullion truck or van for transactional attachments. It comes with many features for securing emails and ensuring that only intended recipients are communicated to with a high level of verifiability. There are features such as the Lookalike Domain Detector and eavesdropping alerts which come in handy when required. In my most use case, RMail Digital Seal has greatly boosted my confidence in managing online overseas transactions in cases where suppliers tend to offer better terms outside the implemented trading platforms. The RMail Digital Seal has great features for verifying documents shared via email. Most of the quotations and invoices in the PDF formats can be signed with a digital signature for authenticity purposes which includes sender’s address, date and time stamp in every page. In addition to this, the recipient can verify message content by sending an email to a provided email address for verification.
Cons:
Most of RMail security features are available depending on the pricing tier subscribed. They can be pricy.
Useful email encryption tool especially for client interactions
Comments: It's a good practice to encrypt important mail-exchanges with clients. It's also a good confidence booster for potential and current clients.
Pros:
Easy email encryption helps with building confidence among clients (with the promise of confidentiality). It can be set-up in just a few clicks.
Cons:
Not many issues to be mentioned, however, initial usage had some bugs and fixes which took time to iron out.
Alternatives Considered:
Essential Security
Comments: When I need to have proof of a certain email, or I need it to be secure for compliance, there is no better service out there. East to use, and easy on the recipient.
Pros:
This service is super easy to use. I used it mainly with Outlook, but a few times with my GMail account as well. Very easy to understand both how to send, but also easy for the recipient of my secure emails. In Real Estate, we have to sometimes prove what was sent and at exactly what time, and the tracking feature of RMail is awesome for this. 5 stars!
Cons:
I have only used the RMail service with Outlook & GMail, so I dont know if it is integrated with other platforms within my organization or not.
Easy and secure
Comments: I can send large files and the message screen is very easy to use and has a standard format that other platforms have (e.g. looks similar to composing an email in Outlook).
Pros:
easy interface to use for emailing and sending files securely
Cons:
no complaints. It does take time to authenticate/get into the secure message, but that's more of a positive since the messages are so securely guarded
RMail is exactly what we wanted. Email Encryption which is easy for the recipient.
Comments: We love RPost. We've used others, and none of them are this easy on recipients. I didn't mention in my review, but it also has e-signing and a few other features. We just love how easy it is.
Pros:
When you send an encrypted email, Rmail tests for a TLS end-to-end encryption protocol on both the sender and the recipient. If it has this protocol, then it can encrypt and send end-to-end without requiring a password to open it. It has excellent auditing too. You get receipts for the emails you send, and they have the time delivered as well as the time opened (and a bunch of traffic data). These receipts are nested in a separate folder from your Inbox automatically so they don't clutter things up. It also has a terrific Chrome interface for Gmail. So, using Outlook and Gmail are the best ways to use this program.
Cons:
There's really only one - if you don't have Gmail or Outlook, then you have to use their web interface. You can't import your contacts onto the web interface, and there's no autofill or anything, so if you use it a lot, you'll be doing a lot of copy-pasting from your address book into the web form.
RMail Sends Secure Mail and Data
Pros:
My mornings can go so quick that I forget to even have breakfast. I usually have a cup of coffee and I open my emails. There are emails sent from the night before which means my inbox is full. I spend a great amount answering emails which can also be time consuming. Since my emails need to be encrypted, I’ve had to rely on this software. I feel very comfortable using this software because I know that I can write anything and not be concerned with hackers intercepting my email. The installation was smooth and it syncs in with my Outlook mail.
Cons:
I don’t have any problems with this software because I use Outlook and it syncs pretty well with my email. I can check if all my emails have been sent.
A Software That Helps Send Encrypted Emails and Large Files
Pros:
We can customize our emails with a signature and make sure it’s encrypted. We are also sent delivery proof that the emails have been delivered. There’s no problem about sending large files because RMail is capable of doing this. Whether you use Gmail or Outlook, RMail is compatible with that system which means you will not need to change your email address.
Cons:
You need to use this with your Gmail or Outlook because it’s much easier that way. If you were to use directly from Rmail, you will need to manually add your contact list.
RMAIL
Comments: We have tried other encryption products, and RMail has been the most reliable and meets our business needs.
Pros:
Each of my employees can use the software without a lot of instruction, knowing their emails are encrypted. Large emails are not a problem sending anymore.
Cons:
That the feature for adding documents are on the website instead of a program within Outlook, or even a seperate program
Good
Pros:
Security It is good for official mails conversations
Cons:
Send mail receipt Good for companies to their mail coversation
RMail is elegant and truly an all-in-one (for email security, tracking, file sharing and more)
Comments: RMail makes it so easy to secure, track, or certify delivery when I needs extra assurance (or comfort) that my important email to clients and suppliers gets there; secure.
Pros:
RMail makes it easy to do what I need for my important email, with just an extra click or two. And, recipients have no problems receiving my important email, encrypted.
Cons:
There is nothing not to like. All great.
Rmail is a good product
Comments: We have used RMail for many years. It is great to have receipt of delivery and read for our records and knowing that it is secure is very important.
Pros:
Our Customer Success Manager checks in often and makes sure any new employees have the training they need. She also makes sure we keep up to date with any software updates and offers training on new features.
Cons:
I have no complaints about RPost / Rmail.
Great encription program whort every penny
Comments: I have tried several encryption products and RMail has been the easiest to use and reliable it has all the features I need even if I pay a little bit more for other services I had used I won't change it soon
Pros:
easy to use, and ensure that my emails are encrypted. Large emails are not a problem as I had in the past.
Cons:
the trend for all programs is to be web-based now and whit Rmail this trend continues and am not a big fan of that, I would like a dedicated desktop program to do it all.
My experience with RPost
Comments: for such big company and many clients, it seems a little bit less experience to support the company with virtual desktop environment or they forget what kind of platform their clients use. besides that, supports are nice and willing to help. the only draw back is time zone difference. We are based on west coast, we have to work on east coast schedule.
Pros:
1. Easy to use 2. enough functions to satisfy different business needs. 3. Having addon built into Outlook is so convenient.
Cons:
1. Support time: only limited to east coast time last time i checked. if it has been changed, I apologize. you can cross out this item. 2. sending "registered" email depends on user alone. if user forgot, then whole purpose to have RPost is waste. Need to have backup plan. 3. no mobile apps to associate with outlook (exchange) on mobile devices.
Rmail is secure
Comments: We deal with protected information RMail makes it easy to send and receive that protected info encrypted.
Pros:
I like that I get notification when my emails are received. I also like that when my emails are received they are trusted. RMail gives the recipient no pause to open the email.
Cons:
I would like an image of the sent email to come back to me when I get notice of whether the email was received or not. Currently it just tells me email not received but if I sent more than one it is difficult to go back and determine what email it was that they did not get.
Send Emails Securely & Receive Read Receipts
Pros:
I love that it has a read receipt feature! No longer do I have to chase down clients for a reply confirming they received the information I sent. Now, I have a handy tool to prove that they did.
Cons:
I wish I could set the program to automatically send through RMail every time, rather than clicking the Outlook Add-In for RMail and selecting the features I want to use. It would help prevent forgetting to send an email registered/encrypted.
Great for easily encrypting attachments
Comments: An overall positive experience. For full disclosure, I liked the company and its product, so I invested in it.
Pros:
RMail is easy to install and integrate with Outlook. We use it to encrypt sensitive document attachments.
Cons:
There have been a few problems, but customer support is always very responsive in getting them fixed.
RPost: Easy to use and makes terrific EVIDENCE
Comments:
I am an independent commercial line insurance broker and because I use RPost, I averted three potential large coverages and/or claims related issues. RPost will provide users with “REGISTERED RECEIPT (evidence of delivery, which includes IP address, content and Time). It is hard for insurers, underwriters and claims rep to use “we didn’t receive your email” excuses.
As for Tech support. I always received excellent services from OLGA (RPost’s Tech). After OLGA fix the “glitches”, she will either call me and/or email me to be sure that RPost is working accordingly. A wonderful lady!
Pros:
Easy to use end-to-end encrypted email program even for techno mourns like me. Better yet, no password needed to open email for my lazy recipients. FYI, I have been RPost (or RMail) subscriber since 12/2013.
Cons:
RPost will work on OUTLOOK and GMAIL only.
Great for emailing!
Pros:
The ability to see that your mail was delivered and when it is opened. The time stamps and tracks everything so a customer or client can't say they didn't receive a document or important message that you sent to them.
Cons:
There is nothing really to not like about this software.
Easy to use if you have Gmail
Pros:
RMail is great when you get how to send from your main mail. Also notifications of read info would be life saver
Cons:
Its just annoying that you have to use their interface if you dont have Gmail. First times when i used the RMail, i struggled with that.
RPost usage in insurance agency
Comments: We have been using RPost for several years. The E-signature, verification of delivery and encryption have aided our agency since we are paperless and documentation is a must.
Pros:
Easy to use. Have not had an issue with customers using the E-signature or encryption feature. The verification of delivery has saved us several times in providing proof an email was delivered to a company or client.
Cons:
Not integrated in our agency management system. Some issues when sending large files.
Easy to use, effective and legally acceptable!
Comments: I own a self storage facility in PA and have used RPost for several years. PA regulations allow communication with occupants via email if noted in lease. RPost is integrated into our operating software, Sitelink, and facilitates collection activities as well serving legal notification of exercising our lien rights and scheduling auctions to collect past due amounts. It is extremely easy to use in that venue as well as to use it in sending out other emails through Outlook.
Pros:
Ease of use, effectiveness and affordability.
Cons:
Can not think of one.
RMail - Send E-mail with Confidence
Comments: I have used RMail to get out of tense situations where someone claimed that he or she never received a given piece of e-mail even though he or she had in fact received it or just simply to document transactions.
Pros:
I use RMail essentially as a certified mail agent for e-mail. It's great for situations where someone would claim that he or she never received a given piece of e-mail even though he or she had in fact received it.
Cons:
The Outlook plugin on occasion crashes, and this can be very annoying when you are in the midst of writing an e-mail and/or forwarding another.
Super Simple - But there are a lot of Confirmations!
Comments: Super simple, easy, secure email messaging system. I felt very secure using it, which meant I had a little less stress when sending emails out.
Pros:
I really like the ease of using this system for secure emails and sending large files. It is a matter of clicks, super simple,
Cons:
There are a lot of confirmation emails that come with it that can clogged up the inbox - you get a confirmation it was sent, received, viewed, downloaded... it is a lot.
Registered Mail Solution - Easy to Use
Comments: We have had a great experience using this product, we have been using it for YEARS. Don't have a lot of Customer Support experience to speak too as we have not needed them. I think this shows how well they have documented their product and the ease of use.
Pros:
For our business needs we made the best choice for both our customers and our users.
Cons:
That we didn't start using it sooner.
