What do you like best about Front?

It has many tools to help keep organized while being super easy to use at the same time. I use Front almost everyday as it is a big part of my workday. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

I haven't seen many downsides while using it except that it sometimes bounces back emails although the email is active. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It helps keep emails very organized because I do get a mass volume of emails. It helps me sort emails into different sections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Front?

- Its ability to generate analytics that are very detailed in many aspects.

- Rules & Configurations with simple implementation yet complex reach.

- Collaboration between the teams and ease of use.

- Number of integrations, though I wish there were more besides using an API for non-existent ones.

- Community-based model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

- Occasionally, we get issues that need urgent customer support (such as service being down), but we have to wait at least 1 working day for a response.

- With many teams, as an administrator on all teams, the UI becomes too crowded and a bit difficult to navigate.

- There is no ability to group rules or nest them under a folder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Collaborating between the different teams and the integration of rules towards seamless customer service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Otto B of Front

Thank you so much for your feedback and this detailed review 🙌 Your notes on areas that you're less fond of are greatly appreciated too. Our Support team strives to keep response times down, and we even share our metrics on the Front website (I've added the link below). I'm sorry if you've experienced longer reply times from our team, but I appreciate you sharing that with us!

Regarding the UI becoming crowding, this is also valuable feedback. Please don't hesitate to share more details about this with our Support team via email 🙏

I can certainly see how the idea for grouping rules in folders could help with that! I would encourage you to submit this as an idea on our public portal: https://community.front.com/ideas

Thank you again for taking the time to share this review, and looking forward to hearing from you! 😊

What do you like best about Front?

I really like how you can organize emails, correspondance and all the features it has. Once I got familiar with the product I saw how seamless it was and was able to switch over from my previous email platform to Front with ease. I enjoy the tag features, the way you can organize emails, the reminders you can set in place, and the snooze feature is genius. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

It took a minute to wrap my head around how it worked. Compared to what I was previously using, it was very different. The learning curve was a bit more steep than I would have liked, but once you use it for a few days and really delve in, it clicks and you see how forward thinking Front is. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

When I go out of town, my coworkers are able to easily manage my inbox without missing anything for any of my clients. It's also been a great tool to make sure I don't miss any deadlines because of the snooze feature for certain tasks/emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Front?

Mobile / Web streamline and internal communications on emails Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

Its a bit Bit clunky to use. The side bar is not customizable to streamline one's working needs. Search needs working on! Search is very hard and in order to find something, we sometimes go back Gmail for example. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Internal communcations on email quesries and multiple inboxes in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Front?

Handling the e-mail like social network posts and all of its interactions. As for my business since there are 2 companies sharing the network it is really good to keep track of issues and bring the people involved to take action or just be on the loop, without the need to actually navigate through tens of previous e-mails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

The notifications which are also inherited from the Social Network model sometimes makes your inbox a nightmare to handle, and if you add this issue with the fact tha there are no folders but tags that work as folders, the organization problem becomes even bigger. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It is helping us solve issues faster without the need to forward hundreds of e-mails or putting the same information on a different platform (like Teams) over and over again just to keep people on the loop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Otto B of Front

Hi Fabio! Thank you for taking the time to write us a review! If you find yourself overwhelmed with the amount of notifications you're receiving, I recommend adjusting the settings to something more favorable.
