With the Outlook 2019 version, the software developer from Redmond has put together a powerful software package that comes along with many interesting innovations compared to the Outlook 2016 version. The core of the software, however, remains the reliable sending and receiving of e-mails, whereby multiple accounts can be conveniently linked and managed with the software.
To organize the mailbox, Microsoft Outlook offers its users the ability to create folder structures, create task lists, manage address books and organize appointments in the extensive calendar. Thanks to the synchronization between different devices, important information is also available on the smartphone or notebook whenever they are needed.
Useful New Features In Microsoft Outlook 2019
The communication is also facilitated by advanced organizational features such as the ability to see how many contacts have responded to an invitation. Equally handy is the new BCC alert, which prevents the user from sending a reply to a received message to all recipients of the originally received e-mail without intention. Due to the "Bill Reminder", Microsoft Outlook also recognizes reliably received invoices and enters the due payment dates in the calendar, which significantly reduces the likelihood of missing payment deadlines. Especially useful is the "Bill Reminder" function for self-employed and small businesses.
Customizable User Interface
As part of the redesign of the e-mail software, Microsoft has fundamentally revised the traditional Ribbon interface from the previous version and improved it. Accordingly, in the current version, users can choose between the traditional interface and a surface that is reduced to a menu bar. In addition, users of Microsoft Outlook 2019 can now customize the controls on the menu bar at the top of the screen as well as the items on the new navigation bar on the left of the screen.
More Security Against Malware And Phishing Emails
Security features have been upgraded with the new Safe-Link service. Embedded links now have a better preview, a real-time scanner in the background that ensures any malware or phishing links are reliably filtered out.
Additional Innovations For iOS
The iOS version of Microsoft Outlook comes with some additional improvements. Including the integration of machine learning functions in the calendar system. For example, in Microsoft Outlook 2019, it can automatically suggest a suitable venue for a meeting by analyzing the user’s location and the number of people participating in an event.
