Microsoft seems to have gained huge success as far as response to its Outlook.com’s preview is concerned, as the company recently announced that Outlook.com is coming out of preview and will be available for the users all over the world. Furthermore, Microsoft is so confident of Outlook.com’s success that it has announced to upgrade all its Hotmail accounts to Outlook soon.
A post in the Outlook blog stated:
“Today is a major milestone in our mission to provide people everywhere with the world’s best email experience. You’ll also see us kick off a large-scale marketing effort around the world to show that Outlook.com can get you going. And because we’re confident that Outlook.com is the best email service available for consumers and ready to scale to a billion people, we’ll soon start to upgrade hundreds of millions of Hotmail users to the new Outlook.com experience.”
Over 60 million people are already using Outlook.com, and such a huge success in just six months has prompted the company to go for more, and eventually provide better user experience by providing the Outlook experience to all its users. The blog presented the details and mentioned:
“When we say that we’re confident Outlook.com is the best email choice for consumers, we mean it. As Outlook.com comes out of preview, we’re also announcing that we will soon upgrade every Hotmail user to Outlook.com. The upgrade is seamless and instant for people who use Hotmail. Everything from their @hotmail.com email address, password, messages, folders, contacts, rules, vacation replies, etc. will stay the same, with no disruption in service. When upgraded, they’ll also get all the benefits from the redesigned Outlook.com experience–a fresh and intuitive user interface, lots of new features and better performance. And we won’t ever make you switch your email address to an @outlook.com address if you don’t want to.”
Microsoft has recently announced to upgrade its Messenger users to Skype and has provided more or less the same facilities in terms of merging and transferring contacts from one account to another. Outlook.com, as far as the data is concerned, has certainly gained popularity and when the users from all over the world experience it, we will know the true potential of the new service. Still, Microsoft seems to be enjoying launching new services for its users.
