Yahoo pioneered in the field of web-mail services and was a promising platform, however, Gmail’s user-friendly interface along with collaborative tools gave the extra edge needed to become the market leader.
Since its inception in 1994, Yahoo! has become a market leader in providing web-services.In its initial days, Yahoo! was the first preference in a series of fields like Yahoo! News, Yahoo! Finance, advertisement, fantasy sports, etc. Since 1997, Yahoo! Started its venture in providing email services for both business as well as the consumer segment, and as of January 2020, reached a user count of 225 million. Yahoo! integrated Youtube, Facebook & Twitter into its email services in the year 2011, which quickly became a huge success as users were able to watch Youtube videos straight from the email with improved searching algorithms from their webmail interface.
However, since the introduction of Google’s Gmail in 2002, and subsequently, G Suite for business, in 2006, the market purview of Business Email Platform changed. G Suite came with inbuilt collaborative and office productivity tools like Docs, Sheets, Slides, & Forms which had a great impact on the corporate market. The user-friendliness of the UI of Gmail, as well as the introduction of G-Drive for file storage, gave users the flexibility to be independent of systems as they could access all their data from anywhere and from any device.
