What do you dislike about Front?

Onboarding process stinks! We paid for consulting services which consistes of sending me an email from thjier website to read and figure out. What a wast e of my time and what a rip off. Sales person made commitments, the transition has been horrible. and customer service consists of just read or watch a help video. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Front?

Front makes clearing out my inbox easy. I no longer have to worry about thousands of emails piling up. Front makes something that was burdensome into something that is manageable. The implementation of Front was super easy thanks to the people that helped us. Their customer support is unmatched. They always give timely responses and they're always willing to help. I and the company I work for use Front daily and it has brought our response times down significantly. It has a number of features that we use, but I personally love the analytics side of things. I use it in my morning reports for our CEO. And lastly, Front was very easy to integrate. Front makes it easy to integrate our workflow and translate that into efficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

The only downside that I can think of is maybe the search feature. I have had a few people complain about not being able to find emails that they search for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Front is helping solve our response time issues. We were just using regular old Gmail before we switched and emails were getting cluttered and overwhelming. Now with Front, we have taken on the "Zero Inbox" mentality and are now responding to customer emails in a much more timely manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Patrick V of Front

Thanks for taking the time to leave your review, Jared! We're always thrilled to hear how Front has been useful for different teams, along with what specific features have helped the most. It's also helpful for us to receive feedback regarding features like search because it helps us identify areas that we can look into improving!

What do you like best about Front?

The AI features, like tagging and automated suggestions, are not only impressive but genuinely helpful. They streamline email management and ensure nothing important slips through the cracks. It's also a breeze to collaborate within the team, thanks to the platform's clean design and user-friendly interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

Unlike Outlook, it doesn't allow mentioning someone external to my company using the '@' feature in the email body, which would be a valuable addition. Auto-capitalization for sentences would be great too, especially for quicker typing. Lastly, while the AI spelling and grammar checker works well, retaining images in emails during corrections would make it even better! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Front has been a game-changer for teamwork and keeping everyone accountable. With shared inboxes, tagging, and the ability to leave internal comments, it’s so much easier to collaborate and make sure nothing gets missed. Assigning conversations to team members is so easy, which has really helped us avoid any mix-ups or doubling up on tasks.

The analytics and reporting tools are brilliant too. They’ve given us proper insights into how we’re doing, like tracking response times and spotting areas to improve. It’s also helped us get a better handle on client satisfaction, which has been a big win for building stronger relationships. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Front as I have seen as of now, there is nothing I can complain about, but recently we have experienced some delays in at the moment of sending emails and receiving as well. I think that this happens since we have unified outlook to front Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Front?

What I appreciate most about Front is its ability to centralize all communications in one place, whether emails or messages. This greatly facilitates task management while allowing smooth and rapid collaboration within the team. The interface is intuitive, and the system of automatic rules for sorting and organizing messages is a real advantage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Front?

Front integrates seamlessly with all of our work flow apps. As a business with multiple facets, from sales, to design, and manufacturing, we're all able to link back to one main hub (Front). Being able to attach links to threads, delegate inboxes, and have side-bar conversations chronologically saves SO MUCH time hunting and pecking through the history of a project. The calendar is the most user friendly of any of the tech apps we've used. And the knowledge base is a good central tool to keep company wide information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

The UI of Knowledge Base was not quite as intuitive and took a bit of collaboration to be able to understand how we can make the most out of it as a team.

Front is not "cheap", so we sometimes have to make the tough call about who is integral enough to earn a Front account. If they're not daily users, they probably won't be included. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Front is integral in helping us manage communication and workflow as a team no matter what department we're in or where we are in the world. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Front?

I like that is it very easy to track the progress of the email with the status tags and it showing who is handling what on the messages. Also the option to internally message either your manager or other team mates through that email without the customer seeing those questions if needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

I do not have any negative thoughts about Front, I think it is much more efficent then a lot of other email services and they should keep it the way it is. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Accountability would be the biggest problem Front helps you solve by tagging and showing who has done what on every message and showing how fast the response times are which is huge to keeping the customer happy with fast response times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Patrick V of Front

Thanks, Joseph! Thanks for giving us an idea of how helpful and efficient Front has been for your team. Feedback like this is helpful for us to understand what's been working well for Front users!

What do you like best about Front?

Very comprehensive: allows for email exchange, internal exchange with team members, adding tags, postponing emails to the next day or specific dates. Various features that help better identify what needs to be addressed in real-time or later (Example: Snooze). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

I took time to become "operational" on the tool because there are too many features, so one tends to get lost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Before Front, we were on Google. And we didn't have the option to snooze emails, so we had to put a lot of notes on our internal files.

More ease in communicating with colleagues from other departments internally where with a simple tag, they take over the relationship with the clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Otto B of Front

Thank you for your review and we are glad to hear that you are enjoying the collboration aspects of Front!

What do you like best about Front?

I love that you can assign, snooze, and easily move emails around inboxes. It is especially important for me to compartmentalise my projects based on different priorities and clients. I also like the conversation function because as I typically highlight certain phrases within and emails and tag my teammates to follow up on them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

It is sometimes very hard to find certain emails, the search function is not very sharp and more often than not I have to sift through tens of emails before finding the right one. Would be great to have filters for the search function such as only shortlisting emails by their sender or have certain words in their title. This would be especially helpful for any searches that go back months ago. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Being timely with our responses to clients, as we can set rules to assign and ping the relevant account manager to reply after a certain time if an email was unattended too. This keeps our service level at a peak with our clients in terms of responsiveness. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Patrick V of Front

Thanks for your review! It's great to get an understanding of the features that have been helpful for you and your team; however, we also appreciate hearing your feedback about the search feature and suggestions for the types of filters you mentioned. It's helpful to hear this feedback because it helps us improve things that customers may be looking for!

What do you like best about Front?

Front makes it so easy to collaborate cross-functionally. It's an excellent tool for sales teams, too.I use it every day to communicate internally with colleagues. It makes it easy to tag individuals who can help escalate issues or who need visibility into important comms from a client.

It's one of the most valuable tools I use in my daily role as an individual contributor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

I find the archiving and search function complex with Front. It's not great at finding emails I sent, so I usually create folders to find what I need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I never have to " forward" emails to someone anymore. I can just tag an individual in Front that needs to see communication from a prospect/ client and I get faster responses. That person can see the entire thread, edit drafts on my behalf, and provide a response all from Front. It's really useful! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Front?

I like the efficiency front provide us whenever we start the shift and it starts to assigned us the udpates we need to work in , that awesome because sometime we can forget to check some emails to get updates but with this option from front we can get the updates automaticaly on the cases we need to sorted out urgently, so it is really easy to work , efficient and innovative app . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

I dislike when we receive documents from any carrier / driver and front starts to create multiples emails with the same update, it waste time ocassionaly because we have to erase the rest of the emails that contains the same update since this is not usefull Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The Front APP is helping us to get everything organized in a proper way since front has excellents features to help us to distribute our job for example Front has the option to snooze the important updates we have to check later as a reminder on that way we can not forget the important things we have to check leter during the shift since front emails us aboout that to abort the situation as soon as it requires and this is one of the way we can get benefiting front that great APP .
