Boomerang for Gmail Reviews & Product Details

It's hard to pick what I like best about Boomerang. But if I had to, I would say the return to inbox if recipient didn't reply is top of the list. No one can try and ignore me with the hopes I will forget. Simply put, all of its features have transformed how I work. I use my email inbox as my to-do list. I send myself emails all the time and time them to arrive when it is most efficient. Scheduled messages to myself and my team also helps to ensure regular tasks are never forgotten.

I have become dependent on it like a drug addict? If the day comes when I will not be able to use its features, I will truly have to completely change how I get work done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Send Later when crafting emails.

Reminders to follow up with different scheduling options and whether we got a response or not.

Whether I am interacting with teammates or with potential customers, I use Boomerang for Gmail multiple times in a day.

In the last decade of using Boomerang I may have reached out to customer support twice or thrice. Very helpful support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing to dislike as such.

Just that sometimes I get confused between the button with many actions for one email and the small logo on top that takes me to manage scheduled messages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to schedule emails to be sent later is super handy. It’s useful for managing different time zones, or just for planning your day more effectively by drafting emails when you’re thinking of them but sending them at a more optimal time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There have been occasional reports of Boomerang not syncing properly with Gmail, or scheduled emails failing to send on time. While these issues aren't extremely common, they can be frustrating when you rely on Boomerang to ensure emails are sent exactly when you want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Makes my appointment scheduling incredibly quick and easy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The default subject line keeps disappearing, and I've had to regenerate a new one repeatedly. I finally stopped trying, but now I have to manually type it every time, which is not really a hassle, but would be nice not to have to do everytime. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's been helpful especially when I have an email to send at a later time and I might not remember the time to send it, so I just schedule a time for it to be sent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It needs more features so that it can be more popular in the business industry Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the fact that it limits my emails so when I am cold calling, I can focus on that and not the emails coming in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing! I love this game program and I highly recommend using it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Boomerang in two specific ways: 1) to help find a meeting time that works for everyone (some people are just allergic to Doodle polls) and 2) to delay emails so they are sent out at the time of my choosing.

Both features are great. I'm an independent consultant, and when I am working with a company where everyone can see everyone else's schedule, but not mine, I can just share availability and everyone's happy.

I use the delayed emails for making sure instruction emails hit people's inbox at the right time (hint: it's not first thing on Monday morning when their inbox is full of news). It works seemlessly and I am super happy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have found that some people (email recipients) are "afraid" to click the buttons that show up in the email when I use "Suggest Times". They just send me an email telling me their prefferred time, rather than clicking the button. (eye roll) . And I'm not sure if it works well across time zones (I dont know if it "translates" the time), so I am hesitant to use it outside of my own timezone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use the 'return conversation to inbox feature daily' when I send emails out to make sure they come back to my inbox if there is no reply. I use this feature daily. This helps our team make sure that no follow up slips through the cracks without us having to note it separately! I also use Boomerang Bookable Schedule for scheduling interviews, it makes it so simple for candidates to select times and automatically sends an email out with calendar invites and video links. The boomerang team is also super helpful and quick to reply if I'm ever having any issues. Boomerang integrates seemlessly with gmail. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes emailed get pinged back to my inbox even if there's been correspondence since then on the thread. I think this happens when someone replies to a different email on the thread or I've sent another additional email they've replied to, etc. so I've boomeranged the 'wrong' message. This can just be annoying - but its really not a big issue and better safe (multiple emails that I don't need) than sorry (missing an important follow up!) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that you can overlay all of your coworker's calendars with a simple selection tool. I also love that it is all done directly in my gmail app and I don't have to switch back and forth between email and my Google calendar. It is super easy to implement, a quick plugin download and you are ready to go! I also love how easy it is to overlay various timezones so I can send my clients meeting options in their own timezone. The fact that the availability is a live feed is also super useful - no more double bookings!

I use it every day - last year alone I scheduled over 120 meetings using Boomerang and I suggest it to everyone at my office! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish I could import the entirety of my calendar contacts at once. I have to currently add people's calendars one-by-one and in a large company that can be time consuming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Two best features:

- I can customize and completely control my schedule. The control options are easy to use and very handy.

- The seamless integration on Gmail, makes it very easy to integrate my booking link on email and use it on other communications apps too.

- I use it everyday.

_ Learning to use and implement was simple and quick.

- The over lay of Google Calendar and auto adding the invite has made me keep track of meetings hassle-free. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- I genuinely feel and need a reminder for the meetings setup on the Google Calendar via email and whatsapp to the organizer and the guests too.

- And also if an auto follow up or reminder system (to book meeting) can be shared after the meeting link is shared with a client. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
