About

Instantly create as many email addresses as you need - each associated with their own group of contacts. Share addresses with anyone, but keep your real email address private. Stop telecom companies, governments, and hackers from seeing with whom you communicate. Each virtual mailbox is automatically set up with 4096-bit GPG and S/MIME encryption keys and certificates. All email stored at MsgSafe-io is encrypted. You can manage the encryption profile for each contact you communicate with. Protect your entire family or organization by managing all identities and email addresses with the domain you already own. If you don’t own a domain, you can use our domain registration services to purchase a domain integrated with MsgSafe-io and privacy protection. You don’t trust FaceTime, Skype, Duo, Hangouts and similar services hosted by companies like Apple, Microsoft and Google? Try our secure and private audio and video services. You can invite people to call you from a browser link.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Unlimited spam email creation so you can throw out email addresses as they're spammed. Also, you don't have to use another company to manage spam email address--you can do this directly in MsgSafe.
  • Can create as many anti-spam email accounts as needed. Once an email account is spammed, you can delete it and create another one so that you never have to worry about the email limit. MsgSafe, from what I've learned, is a zero-knowledge provider--they don't hold our encryption keys. They also strip emails of metadata like IP address so companies... can't track you easily. More, they're based OUTSIDE the dread anti-privacy 14 Eyes (including US, Captain Spy) so courts can't FORCE MsgSafe to compromise law-abiding citizens' privacy.
  • Identity creation is fast and easy. Users can create new identification in a matter of minutes. Lots of domains to choose from for addresses.

Cons

  • Customer service doesn't respond to messages. No email warnings about service discontinuation.
  • Small caveat: The service advertises a secure, encrypted audiovisual chat feature, but this is nowhere on the email home page. I've reached out to support, but, as usual, over a week later, they haven't gotten back to me. Why advertise such a critical feature and then either hide its availability OR take it down? Huge caveat: MsgSafe doesn't offer 2FA, so if a remote agent gets your password, they now control your account. It's unbelievable that ANY company that cares about consumer privacy wouldn't immediately offer 2FA so consumers can lock down our accounts. At least offer what other companies have been offering for over a decade now--2FA via a phone authenticator app (like Authy). Better--integrate FIDO/FIDO2 security keys.
  • There are no instructions about how to manage identities anywhere. Can't reply to an email from email support, as a way to contact it. Company hidden from users. Which, is not a good thing.. Can't switch between email accounts easily, or delete identity without instructions. Several email programs will not let me use email addresses with its domains. Not even those ending in ".com".

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Super secured app with end-to-end encryption, that even Wickr can't see my data. Because of the security, illegal folks started to abuse it. Now Amazon has put curb on the abuse and promoting as an enterprise grade product with AWS Support.
  • Wickr is an excellent way to get end to end encryption for communicating safely with business associates without worry of your conversations getting intercepted.
  • It's the best internal (inbound) communication tool for SMBs to collaboratively work and communicate using the unified software. The feature I'm using the most is its file transfer and video call. It helped me to stay connected while working remotely.
  • Wickr makes team communication more professional than other tools we tried. It helped every employee to stay on the same page for team collaboration. The file transfer, screen share and instant messaging works great.
  • Wickr application offers multi-platform support. It allows us to communicate and share files with project teams. The video calling quality is clean and works great on bad connections. Instant messaging and voice calling option.

Cons

  • Few integrations - I guess it will grow, now Amazon owns it.
  • Linking with associates can be cumbersome and retrieving past conversations is purposely impossible.
  • Quality of video conferencing is slightly on the lower side
  • Nothing so far we enjoyed Wickr software features.
  • It worked great for me. Nothing to share about cons.
