What do you like best about Front?

I really enjoyed our onboarding process and all the knowledge that we get from the Front team. I also like the update and new capabilitie being made available to continue growing the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

I feel that the sync with the general mailbox could use some work. Often times I run into storage issue emails and it is a hassle to open my old email to delete items. On the note of deleted items as well, I'd like Front more if I had an optino to delete all items in my trash folder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Front has solved the problem with accepting calendar invitations on mobile devices - that is a huge win. They are also working with our team to assist with additional analytics so we can better manage our teams and mointor our conversations with our customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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.

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?

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.

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.

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 .

What do you like best about Front?

What I like the most is Front's ease of use. You can keep your templates, share inboxes with other teams, snooze messages, and tag internal users under threads, making it a powerful tool for customer-facing teams. It didn't take long to implement. It's an intuitive platform and easy to integrate with other tools. Front became our primary day-to-day tool for internal communication, customer support requests, and sales channels. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

Nothing to point out at the moment. It provides a different perspective on email tools than your traditional ones. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

As a remote company, it makes our internal communication work smoothly. We can discuss a certain situation with other team members by tagging each other under each thread, simplifying cooperation between remote teams.

It also allows cooperation between different functions by having multiple shared inboxes in which every team member can pitch in and provide help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Front?

I like that Front is not just a communication platform, it allows the user to customize the whole experience; the templates are very easy to use, there's a shared template option but you can also have your private templates which really adds value, also, you can easily find customers from your pipedrive instead of having to look them up separetely.

Another great feature is the option to 'undo' a sent email, in case you missed to add something, you can stop the email from being sent to modify it accordingly. It's my go-to tool, I use it every day even when I'm off work, because I have the app on my phone to make sure I don't miss anything. So far, I hadn't had to file any type of ticket for customer support so that speaks volumes.

In the past, I've had to deal with outdated platforms that don't even inform you that your message arrived or was seen by the other party so I'm glad that this is my company's communication platform for customers, it makes the job just so much easier! And not just communication between customers, but also within our organization, they integrated everything so well; the easiness in which I can tag other team members in conversations with the 'Add internal comment' feature is simply amazing. Thank you for all you do, Front. It's truly an extraordinary tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

There's nothing I dislike so far, if I have any feedback, I'll share it in the future! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Front helps mantain good and efficient communication with the customer, having both email and sms inboxes all in one. We can easily look up all customer communication, even if you weren't the primary sender so this keeps the process transparent and convnient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Front?

Since everything is centralized, we can easily create different views, boxes, and groups. Plus, we have the option to track metrics in real-time. The front page also includes a helpful guide, so you can quickly learn how to use it. We use Front every day, and it's been amazing. It's helping us assign emails to the right people, manage shared boxes, and keep track of metrics as they come in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

Honestly, I think they're doing a great job of adding new features, so right now, I don't have anything else to suggest. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Front is helping us stay organized by bringing all our shared inboxes together in one place. This makes it easy to see who’s handling which emails and allows us to collaborate on drafts in real-time. It’s been a huge time saver and keeps everything running smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Front?

Commenting on emails with other teammates, assigning a conversation to a specific teammate so that no information from the customer gets lost among different colleagues Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

The calendar view and functionalities could be improved Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Before Front we would miss information from clients as they sometimes write various emails to different colleagues. With Front we have solved this issue: there is only one assignee for a specific conversation and you can merge different conversations if you decide so, so you don't have to look among thousands emails. Also, the 'zero inbox' work method is highly efficient and allows me to perform better, always knowing what is still left to do and what is already done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Otto B of Front

Hi Ilaria!

Thanks for taking time to leave us a review. It’s great to hear that features like commenting on emails, assigning conversations, and merging threads have made things easier for your team and helped keep customer information organized. We’re also glad the ‘inbox zero’ approach is working well for you.

For any suggestions/feedback you'd like to share about the calendar view, I highly recommend sharing that here- https://front.ideas.aha.io/. Our Product team reviews these ideas weekly and prioritizes accordingly.

Thank you again, and please don't hesitate to reach out if anything comes up!
