Hushmail

"Security for your email"

Vorteile: As a gmail user I really liked being able to secure messages with a pass phrase to ensure that only the recipient of my messages was able to read them.

Nachteile: Many years ago Hushmail was completely encrypted, but now, in our brave new world, the TOS now stipulates that they can and will turn over your info in the event of court orders.

"Encrypted email that’s easy for my clients to use"

Kommentare: Customer service is excellent. They get back to me right away. That could be worth the price.

Vorteile: I like that with Hushmail I can create alias emails for different uses.
I like that sending attachments is easy.
I like there is an app so I can use it one my phone.

Nachteile: I guess the only drawback is the price-it should cost a few dollars less.
I wish that it didn’t show my return email address to the people I send it to. Here is why. In California, the agency that regulates marriage and family counselors consider emails as advertising. Therefore my email must include my full name, type of license, and my license number. So that pretty much kills the confidentiality on my clients inbox. A stone can see the email is coming from a psychotherapist. When I found out about the alias emails I could create, that solved the problem... the only drawback is that the aliases don’t have my website name after the @InnerFreedomConsulting.com.
Instead, it has Hushmail info @nym.hush.com
But at least I can use an alias to send emails to established clients-so confidentiality is maintained.

"The only way to go is with Hushmail"

Kommentare: Awesome, no complaints, very helpful customer service team and quick response time

Vorteile: Very easy to use! If something does not make sense there is always someone in customer support to help immediately!

Nachteile: There is nothing I did not like about this software.

"Hushmail disappointed"

Kommentare: None. It was not for me. I can appreciate the intent but until there is a better way to use it, I give it a thumbs down.

Vorteile: My purpose in using this software was for HIPAA compliant email. It is in fact secure and I did appreciate that component

Nachteile: My main issue with why I will not continue to use Hushmail is that it is tedious between the sender and recipient to remember a password to access the email. It seems like there should be a better way to either save the password, or something else. What happens is if you are the recipient and you have forgotten your password and your request a password reset then the original email that was sent to you is lost and the sender has to send again. I found it to be very tiring.

"We use Husmail in our office for secure email."

Kommentare: good secure email manager at a decent price

Vorteile: Can log on from anywhere, even mobile to access email. Many functions-mail forwarding, auto reply, encryption, contact list, in box folders for organization. Customer service is available via email. I have always received responses from my help requests. The cost is decent. Storage space seems to be unlimited.

Nachteile: No easy way to download emails as a document on computer. (They can be downloaded into Outlook) Site goes down once in a great while, still is distressing during a work day.
