Why it's called Entourage and not just Outlook?[edit]

Does anyone know why it's called Entourage and not just Outlook? -- stewacide 02:36, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

They are two distinct products. It's more analogous to Outlook Express than to Outlook, but it's not just a port of Outlook Express to Mac OS X (similar, but not identical). – Ringbang 15:45, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
The article states Entourage is essentially analogous to Microsoft Outlook., so which is it? Is Entourage a program similar to Outlook, a personal information manager that includes an e-mail client, or similar to Outlook Express, a half-assed e-mail client that includes a half-assed Usenet client?Kar98 23:17, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
I used Entourage 2004 for several months before going back to Outlook 2003 (mainly because my PC is a lot faster than my Mac :-) )... it's definitely a lot closer to Outlook than it is to Outlook Express. Warrens 23:37, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
Yes they should basically include the same features, but are NOT the same program at all. ~LinuxeristE/L/T 03:58, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
There is a good article written by a Microsoft MVP on that subject, explaining the history of the two applications [1]76.217.211.246 (talk) 19:15, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Correction of Mac OS version[edit]

Entourage was available for Microsoft Office 2001, which was for OS 8.5 and greater. :: Colin Keigher 04:00, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

For Entourage 2008 the minimum OS required is OS 10.4.9. 76.217.211.246 (talk) 19:17, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Name[edit]

Where is this product ever called Microsoft Office Entourage? The filename is Microsoft Entourage, the about box says Microsoft® Entourage® for Mac, the read me says Microsoft Entourage 2004 for Mac. I think someone has applied an XP office-style rename to this article at the cost of accuracy. -- Steven Fisher 15:21, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

It got renamed just yesterday. You are right, of course, so I've renamed it back. Warrens 15:30, 24 May 2006 (UTC)


Limitations[edit]

Hello all. I came across this article and having to support entourage every day in an corporate environment I thought to expand on the limitations the original author already mentioned but found that it seemed logical to put them in its own section rather than push it in between the parts that talk about it features. I hope it doesn't come across as criticism so I included work arounds to the limitations. I think this will be fair to let people know that Entourage doesn't give the same features as a full blown version of Outlook 2003 using an Exchagne server. Also... I threw in information on how to access the database repair utility. -James --208.253.80.123 17:22, 3 June 2006 (UTC)


Is 'limiations' a good point? This would imply that Entourage is supposed to be a Mac version of Outlook when it addresses a very different market with different needs. It also seems to read as a Windows user has come across it and can't find the same functionality. This is not a limitation as far as Entourage 'out-of-the-box' is concerned. The additional updates since do add extra support for Exchange conectivity when in a Windows environment.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Markrich (talk • contribs) 2006-07-04 12:43:31 (UTC)

I like the content of that section, but I see your point. What about calling it 'Compared with Outlook' or something like that? -- Steven Fisher 15:01, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

POV[edit]

This article seems to be very biased against Entourage. I'm not a fan myself, but this article seems to focus entirely on its limitations and incompatibilities. Even when listing its features, the article begins by stating that it is primarily 'an email application', as opposed to a personal information organizer or whatever they're calling it these days. I would appreciate it if someone could fix this. Thank you! --Evil Eccentric 20:03, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

New section-- Version history[edit]

There needs to be a new section for version history. Those people who own Blackberrys and need (not want) to use Entourage need to know about the versions that came BEFORE 2008, as '08 is effectively 'Broken' as far as BB users of Macs are concerned. 67.220.13.180 (talk) 11:54, 23 February 2009 (UTC)

Outlook[edit]

Shouldn't something be added in the sidebar (sorry, i have no idea what that is called) about the sucessor to entourage being Outlook? Jedieaston (talk) 01:15, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

Stable release[edit]

How can the Stable release have a date of 2013 when the article says the last version was released in 2008 & replaced in 2010.104.178.189.70 (talk) 05:15, 3 July 2016 (UTC)
