Meet the contenders
Whether you're a freelancer, small business owner, or corporate executive, there's an email app for you. We're here to help you decide.
Let's look at how these two email apps stack up against each other.
Thunderbird
Thunderbird is a free, open-source, cross-platform email client that’s managed by a core staff and a community of volunteer developers. Although the app is already quite robust, there are optional add-ons that you can install to enhance its functionality. So, when it comes to cost-effective email client apps, you can’t go wrong with free—there are no separate paid versions.
Zoho Mail Desktop Lite
Zoho Mail Desktop Lite is a free email client offered by the business email hosting service Zoho Mail. Available on Windows, macOS, and Linux, Zoho Mail Desktop Lite lets you access your messages from various email accounts, including Zoho Mail, Gmail, Outlook.com, Yahoo, and more.
