Sort it! ### 1/5 — Unusable *2012-07-20, version 4.0* The new version is unusable! Crashes upon login!! ### 1/5 — What have you done!!!! *2011-12-14, version 3.6.2* I downloaded the latest update and the app ground to a halt!!! The only way I can receive my emails is to use the RESET option and that wipes off any emails I have on the device. Please give me the old version back - QUICKLY!!!! ### 1/5 — This is terrible *2011-10-20, version 3.6.1* Just updated my iPad 1 and iPhone 4 to DME 3.6.1 together with iOS 5 on both devices and have had problems with the DME calendar syncing with the device calendar. The calendar entries were appearing in the DME calendar but the device calendar and the new notifications window were empty. I reset the DME data from the settings several times to refresh the data but it made no difference. I read up that DME won't sync with the device calendar if another app also syncs with the device calendar to prevent any data conflicts if DME and the other app access the device calendar at the same time. I had iCloud active but it didn't sync with the device calendar but I thought I'd turn it off anyway. This action deleted the data from my device calendar, which I wasn't too concerned about as everything was in my DME server copy. I reset the DME data again and resynced. This caused selective DME calendar entries to be deleted and still didn't fix the problem! I turned iCloud back on but disabled apps syncing data. I then noticed that new DME calendar entries were syncing with the device calendar but not the older existing ones. This is where I have left things! And to top it all off, the DME sync icon on the iPad doesn't work and I have to go into the email, calendar, contacts and to do separately to sync. The sync icon works fine on the iPhone. Go figure... ### 1/5 — Worst mail client in the world *2011-09-26, version 3.6* I cannot warn too much about this app - filled with bugs, completely unstable, no usability, bad design, no contacts sync, heavy data usage, extremely slow sync, only lousy built-in calendar sync, ... ### 1/5 — Deletes ALL my contacts *2011-05-13, version 3.5.11* When I install the app it deletes all of my contacts without any prompt !! Useless crap app. FIX IT ASAP !! ### 2/5 — 3.5.6 very buggy *2011-02-18, version 3.5.6* Have been using DME for over a year and DME3 for a few months. Just upgraded to 3.5.6 and find it very unstable. On the first attempt it even corrupted the O/S on my iphone so I had to restore from backup. My advice - do not upgrade unless you absolutely have to - stick with the earlier version until this is fixed or it's certain this is a one off issue for my phone/config. If you must upgrade then ensure you synch/backup your iPhone beforehand so you can restore! Have emailed their support team in case it's not just specific to my phone/config. ### 1/5 — v3.5.6 - contacts sync broken! *2011-02-11, version 3.5.6* In previous versions DME performs true sync of contacts on your iphone & server. However, when I upgraded to v3.5.6 I find all I can do is "skip", "import" or "export" ... so syncing has just got a whole load less useful, because if I import my contacts it deletes all my contacts (with photos, ringtones & sms tones that I set up) & replaces them with a whole new copy of contacts. Useless! ### 2/5 — Not very good *2010-08-23, version 0* Often duplicates contacts between the phone contacts and server. Doesn't sync calendar between app and phone calendar at all and doesn't run in the background on ios 4. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Sirspence *2019-05-29, version 5.1.2* Poor constantly crashes ### 1/5 — Terrible app *2017-10-21, version 5.0.2* Hopelessly slow and unreliable since they attempted to give it a very long overdue upgrade. Constantly crashing. ### 1/5 — DME dies not work properly *2016-07-21, version 4.5.4* After latest update it does not update folders and does not send email ### 1/5 — Taking email back 20 years *2016-02-20, version 4.5* This app is a complete joke! Unreal if anyone would see anything remotely useful with this app. It slows you down, prevents you from getting things done, and simply all around annoys you. If you can avoid this app at all cost, please do! ### 1/5 — Quant IT *2015-08-13, version 4.2.11* utter schlock ### 1/5 — Keeps Crashing *2014-10-26, version 4.2.5* DME is restricted on functionality in comparison to Good for Enterprise. Unfortunately DME keeps crashing on my iPhone 6 plus. ### 1/5 — Not fit for purpose *2013-07-17, version 4.1.2* Having been blocked from using Web outlook on security grounds we were offered DME as an alternative . I use an IPad and although it works, in practice it is clumsy and not suitable for my day to day work. It has no connection to Dropbox or the applications on my iPad. It will not allow printing and having to re-enter the password after too short a time is extremely annoying! ### 1/5 — Crashes with new apple iOS update *2013-02-01, version 4.0.3* App not compatible with new iOS update. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2013-01-24, version 4.0.3* Does not work at all .... not wasting time trying to get the stupid app to recognise I even have an Internet connection! ### 1/5 — worst upgrade ever *2012-08-04, version 4.0* this is the worst upgrade ever. DME crashes constantly, it crashes on login, it crashes when you sync, it crashes when you delete an email. time to go back to microsoft activesync as DME is so frustrating ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — MD *2013-03-06, version 4.1.0* The latest version of DME is brilliant, it's by far the best way to allow BYOD device use in even the most security minded companies. Stable, fast and easy to use. ### 5/5 — Much improved *2012-08-09, version 4.0.1* New GUI is much better and I've had no crashes since upgrading to 4.0.1. ### 5/5 — Contrary to some reviews.... *2010-11-17, version 0* This app is actually very good. I have had no problems with it whatsoever. Maybe those that have need to look at their servers setup? I get my mail, synch contacts, manage meetings and view attachments perfectly on my iPad and iPhone4. ### 4/5 — Secure email on iPad at last! *2011-06-27, version 3.5.12* Great app that has at last ecouraged my employer to give access to email on ipad. Major limitation is only 7 days of mail synchronisation. Can this be extended?? ### 3/5 — Review *2014-02-14, version 4.1.9* Overall it is ok, but compared to other offerings, it is not as good as. It should be. The email is ok, but only one email address entry, and would be better with 3 or more. The diary is very frustrating being only to see one week at a time, and therefore ability to scan diary for dates, is impossible. The ability to view and read documents is good, and this is a good feature, but some issues within doc options, creates a non load issue and have to use iPad pages. It is ok, but would rather use an apple offering, but this is what work provide me with, ### 3/5 — A good start, but lots still to do *2012-06-25, version 3.6.5* As a basic email, contacts and calendar client it does the job. Very grateful that I've been able to ditch my BB and use a single mobile device. Unfortunately, when compared to the built-in iOS mail, calendar and contacts apps, DME still has a long way to go. I do like that you can show your personal calendars alongside your work calendar in DME though - very nice. Also like the 'all attachments' view. Things that definitely need improvement/adding to the feature list: - Synchronisation is very slow, to the point of being painful. It seems like the client is comparing everything instead of just looking for changes in the headers, and sync'ing the deltas. - No support for for HTML content. It's 2012 guys, the associated security risks can be managed. - Email threading required for conversation grouping. Even if the older messages aren't on the phone, give us the headers and the option to pull them down again. - Smart tagging of phone numbers, addresses and dates for one-touch calling/contacts, maps and creation of appointments. - Support for viewing encrypted content. Build in a way for our certificates or private/public keys to be stored and received on the devices. Thanks! ### 2/5 — Dme 4 *2014-03-04, version 4.1.10* Had this app well over six months now. It's pretty poor in comparison to other apps available. I have to have it for my work, but it's desperate for an upgrade.... ### 2/5 — A good app - when it works *2013-12-10, version 4.1.7* This is a good app when it works but recently (since the last upgrade) it doesn't work much. It crashes when loading new email, doesn't send and is generally pretty unusable unless regularly reinstalled. A shame because it is great when it works. ### 2/5 — Poor upgrade- crashes all the time *2013-10-25, version 4.1.7* Sadly the upgrade was not stable. It crashes a lot when checking emails. A bit rubbish really. ### 2/5 — Real problems *2012-07-24, version 4.0* The app crashes and takes an age to sync in comparison to the iPhone version. Both could do with a conversation/thread view on emails. I also can't see my calendar availability before accepting an invite. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
