What do you guys think of Yandex?

Are they likely to be around for long? Are they better or equal to gmail my current provider?

I've used Yandex for years. Not for anything important or sensitive. They only get a "C" at Qualyss Labs for security. Gmail gets an "A". I'm not sure if they have implemented 2FA yet which is imperative for business.

The do have a terrific interface with some nice features. I really like being able to have an email sent at future date - this is great for reminders.

Yandex is Russian in origin and very big over there. Not going away anytime soon.

They want to be the Google of Russia, and maybe overtake Google all around.

Their browser is based on Google Chrome.

Recently used them and they seem very responsive and overall quite good not using their search engine though because google is pretty darn good.
