Pros and cons of TouchDown Mail app for iPhone and iPad

TouchDown Mail app good for

We have been using the droid version for years. So happy the iOS version works perfectly with our MS Exchange 2010.
Excellent app! But do not disable auto-update option in general settings of device. Otherwise push notifications will be disabled.
The latest version syncing very badly in background mode. Please fix.

Some bad moments

Latest release still doesnt send notifications when an email is received. What day and age does an email app not send notifications??? This is the worst email app.
The Apps is excellent for business purpose , but I trying to install to use with my corporate emails, during the configuration has something wrong with getting policies process and I tried many times to get some support help and nobody give me any feedback . Unbelievable .... I d. Like to recommend , but I cant , because I m pay quiet expensive and up to now, nothing.... I lose my money... Horrible technical support.
Same as mentioned below, from iOS8, calendar sync is not working! Once I select the icon, gets a dump and exit!!! Annoying! Please fix this ASAP!
Notifications are a must! Without these, this app, however well it performs, becomes USELESS!!!! This should be a priority for the developer!!!!! Why is it that other apps can encorporate notifications? It is a MUST HAVE feature that is missing here.
"Network connection unavailable " problem in configuration although all other apps are working perfectly
The program intermittently (edit: hourly) stops notifying. Not acceptable. Also: very ugly to begin with, and the "optimized for iPhone 4s" resolution looks pretty foul on my 6+. Uninstalled.
