"Front has been fantastic"
What do you like best about Front?

* Multiple inboxes with custom rules * Ability to comment on emails for my team to see (with @ing) * Google calendar integration

What do you dislike about Front?

* Dark mode only affects the sidebar, not the inbox * Inbox rules could be more powerful/complete. Maybe automatic inbox filtering like Gmail? I get too much spam from corporate mass-emails.

What problems is Front solving and how is that benefiting you?

Merging together my multiple email accounts into a single application

"Couldn't do my job without Front."
What do you like best about Front?

Snoozing, archiving, tags, just email management in general! Being able to manage following up on emails and help with prioritizing is great. The collaborative features are also top notch.

What do you dislike about Front?

I'd love a better dark mode (I often work late) and maybe better tag/sidebar management.

What problems is Front solving and how is that benefiting you?

Collaboration, organization, workload management, and more. :) Staying on top of tons of threads is done sooo much smoother and is far easier.

"Great Product/Service"
What do you like best about Front?

- Commenting to the team on an email thread without starting a new conversation in a different place is the best! - Being able to access multiple email accounts from one place - Being able to share emails across the team - How many external apps can connect to Front - Enforcing 'Inbox Zero' to keep ensure team keeps up with their emails

What do you dislike about Front?

The only major thing is that it's not as intuitive as other email platforms but this one outperforms overall.

What problems is Front solving and how is that benefiting you?

Team communication is major! Having all business emails consolidated in one place while maintaining the privacy of personal business inbox.

"Amazing layout"
What do you like best about Front?

Front had an amazing layout, team folder sharing was a great feature, also enjoyed how easy it was to organize everything

What do you dislike about Front?

Outlook as a feature to preview excel documents, I wish front had that feature instead of just straight downloading the file.

What problems is Front solving and how is that benefiting you?

What front does solve in comparison to its counterpart, Outlook, is the ability to create a team email and include collaboration. It's really hard to collaborate on certain projects with outlook.

"Effortless"
What do you like best about Front?

It makes my job a lot easier and its easy to organize my emails. I love how we have templates that we can use and tags.

What do you dislike about Front?

So far Front has been an amazing experience

What problems is Front solving and how is that benefiting you?

I was using two email platforms but using Front on its own has been wonderful. The ready templates makes it easy to send an email to a customer without having to think too much as it is ready to pick and click. The tags feature helps a lot as well as we get a lot of emails and we can differentiate all of our borrowers from each other.

"I think is an intuitive tool and in my case is perfect for working on a shared inbox with the team."
What do you like best about Front?

Funcionalities like canned responses, the option to snooze emails

What do you dislike about Front?

I would like if the tool will save my favorite time for scheduling emails. So for example, if normally I schedule my emails to the next day 6am. It will be great if it could already save my last scheduling so I dont have to go over the calendar and choose day and time.

What problems is Front solving and how is that benefiting you?

Not forgetting to reply to customers with the snooze option. Increase productivty by using canned responses.

"Love Front"
What do you like best about Front?

Ensures that all incoming messages are quickly assigned and handled thereby increasing our level of customer service provided and improving our response time. It also prevents duplicate effort between employees and allows us to manage all communication channels from one location.

What do you dislike about Front?

We have two locations and I have to weed through all their messages to get to mine.

"Great look, useful features, easy to use"
What do you like best about Front?

@mention feature - you can comment on your colleagues emails, add an info, adjust drafts - emails continue coming from the same person in your team and customer doesn't have the slightest idea! Clean and with both business and customer in mind!

What do you dislike about Front?

Nothing - I like everything . I feel most business would run at list a bit (if not much much more) from front - monday combination in customer relations and project management - no matter the scale.

What problems is Front solving and how is that benefiting you?

My favorite as I said - @mention. Tagging conversations and making folders for emails have never been easier. And it is easily readable! The cleanest email design I've seen. Merging conversations - suddenly your inbox is not that crowded! I sound like a commercial - my enthusiasm comes from frustration at my previous jobs and suddenly seeing how all of it can be easy and effortless.

"revolution of e-mail communication in the team"
What do you like best about Front?

Front offers a very useful mail program. I like the assign/invite function to inform my colleagues of my e-mails with the customers. We can share drafts and edit them together. In the calendar I plan my meetings with integration of zoom.

What do you dislike about Front?

The search function is not so so advanced like in gmail. Editing the signatures is not so easy. Copy paste will fix it.

What problems is Front solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our team works together with one channel: e-mails, chat, reactions, calendar, contacts. Every employee has access to our shared mailbox and can assign the mails to the team. We work more efficiently and our team has a good teamwork. With Front we manage all incoming mails in our shared inbox, so that our customers have support in within 1-3 h. We use the chat function to chat about an incoming e-mail and how we can solve the mentioned problems.
