GroupWise is a lesser-known emailing platform used by limited users whereas Outlook is one of the most popular and trusted emailing client. The reason behind the popularity of Outlook is the advanced inbuilt functions. The latest version of Outlook is inbuilt with Group Emails, Address book, Notes, Journals, Calendaring and Social Integration. Social Integration is the most advanced and new feature of Outlook liked by many users. Behind the popularity of Outlook, there are a few other factors as well.

  3. Outlook is the most common platform so user can find this platform anywhere.
  4. Installation and maintenance cost of Outlook is affordable.
