Front Reviews & Product Details

I use Front to respond efficiently to customer emails and tickets while managing my team of customer service agents. It’s easy to navigate, and the quick, simple filters make a real difference when prioritizing tickets by urgency. With just a glance, I can see my team’s activity and manage their inboxes, which helps me allocate work more effectively.

I especially appreciate how Front removes the confusion that often comes with shared inboxes. Features like routing and assigning emails have a noticeable impact on day-to-day work. Conversations can be automatically directed to the right team or person based on rules, which saves time and helps ensure nothing gets missed. Assigning emails also creates clear ownership, so everyone knows exactly who is responsible for responding, reducing duplicate replies and unnecessary delays.

Rules and macros further streamline repetitive tasks, such as tagging emails or sending standard responses, which makes handling a high volume of emails much more efficient. Overall, Front smooths out the workflow and improves coordination across the team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Front is a very powerful tool overall, there are a few areas where I think it could be improved. One thing I’ve noticed is the AI feature: it’s very helpful, especially for drafting and summarizing emails, but there used to be an option to adjust the tone of responses (for example, making them more formal, casual, or empathetic). I found that control really useful. I’m not entirely sure whether it’s been removed or changed, but having that option clearly available again would definitely enhance the experience.

Another area is automation. Sometimes the automation rules and workflows can be a bit complex to set up at first, and I’ve also run into cases where the AI chatbot says it’s applying rules but doesn’t actually do so. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s a very user-friendly platform. The AI features to adjust tone, improve grammar, or translate messages are a huge plus, helping us maintain a professional image for customer support.

It also allows us to set up rules so emails and requests are automatically assigned to each team member, significantly reducing the daily manual work we would otherwise have to do. Additionally, it is easy to integrate with our organization’s existing platforms, which makes implementation smooth and efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some emails are occasionally delayed and take a bit longer than expected to arrive. We use Front daily so the volume of email is high. On the other hand, using private tags can sometimes be tricky. When an email is archived or snoozed, it may also be archived or snoozed within the tag folder. This can be confusing, especially if someone doesn’t know that they need to drag the email out of the main inbox so it remains visible under the tag without being archived.

Front is the email channel that we use at my place of employment. I'm in sales so we use this app to communicate internally with each other, customer service, production facilities, and for customer support as well. All of our emails stay organized and we can search and filter with ease in order to find what we are looking for. We LOVE the @mention feature in Front and use it frequently.

I fully understand if it is unable to link to a Microsoft account, but we would love it if Front had the ability to link up with Microsoft Teams for ease of use and collaboration between calendars. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that Front is an all-in-one tool, easy to use. I find it very practical to be able to tag colleagues and discuss an email, which allows for quick communication. What I appreciate the most is the feature of easily finding an archived email or the history of exchanges. This feature is much more efficient compared to other email services that only find parts of the searched word. As a professional who often needs archived data, this helps me considerably. Moreover, the initial setup of Front went very well because it was simple and ergonomic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

sad color, too many shortcuts that send emails by themselves just because we made a typing error on the keyboard Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that we are able to add several inboxes to Front so we are able to easily jump back and forth between the multiple inboxes when needed to stay on top of everything in a very quick time frame. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like to have more options in the sequences section including being able to add different subject lines and add my signature to emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The software is pretty much unbeatable, no bugs, no crashes, justa smooth and simple interface that is user-friendly and allows you to keep up with the rush of the daily work; on top of that, you are now allowed to interact with pluggins that I personally use for my AI helpers which is great, honestly I'm very happy with Front so far.

They improved the glitches. In the last 2 years, they have had them only 2 times. We recently got an interface upgrade, which is what I was complaining about, and so far it has been working nothing but awesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that everyone has a lot of visibility. Tags, notes and the rules are the parts I find the most useful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Several things:

1. If someone from a different thing archives an email, then even if you add an email from a team member, they will never get to see the email... We have lost orders from customers because of this kind of human mistakes.

2. Sometimes, when the teams are returning emails to the first person involved, Front is not so good at actually showing it.

3. If someone is out of the office, as it is distributed randomly, the other members are not aware unless they open that partner inbox. (maybe it's because of the rules) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Front makes it easy to manage conversations across different channels without losing context. The shared inbox setup works well for team collaboration, and internal comments help keep communication aligned without spamming the client. It’s also pretty intuitive to use once you get used to it, which helps a lot in fast-paced support environments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some workflows can feel a bit limited or rigid, especially when handling more complex cases or high volumes. Search and filtering could be more reliable, and performance can slow down when handling large threads or multiple inboxes. Also, certain features feel a bit hidden or not as flexible as they could be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that the Front is very intuitive and allows me to leave notes and assign cases to my colleagues. It also allows me to see a client's information when they call or send an email, which helps me a lot to perform my job well. The Front is very comprehensive and allows integration with other software, making the work easier for those who work in customer support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think what could be improved in the Front is when I receive calls, somehow the Front could do the closed caption of the call and save it, because often clients speak quickly and it would be nice to have the call recorded in note form for support purposes.

Front AI is extremely helpful, allowed us to analyze the content of our inbound requests to help us develop consistent responses for the most common issues. Also added a text channel which eliminated the need for our customer service team to use their cell phones to send and receive images. Planning to add social media channels to our inbox soon Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The occasional outage, but communication is excellent and the response is swift. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
