"Fantastic Application for any Application"
5/5
What do you like best about Shift?

Shift allows me to contain all of my tabs, content, and apps in one convenient location that allows them all to be used at warp speed. If you're looking to increase production, gain access to all sorts of super powers, and want to overcome tab burdens (we all have so many tabs open all the time), look no further. This is the application that will allow you to access all of your email, and drive accounts individually, but also together. What a great piece of software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shift?

I was around when Shift was only $99. I want that back. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simplified my workflow and desktop"
5/5
What do you like best about Shift?

I highly recommend Shift as I use it every day, all day! All my main applications (Outlook, Slack, Zoom, Asana, Salesforce, etc.) are in one place. I don't have a million windows open in Safari or Chrome anymore. It is embarrassing the number of times I jump on a Zoom call and have to watch other participants scramble through all their tabs to find the one they are looking for. Every time I share my screen, I get complimented on how organized I am and also get questioned about Shift. It's super easy to set up and add programs to Shift as well; very intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shift?

I prefer to use Chrome to open links, as I use Wordpress a good deal and need Shift available for transferring information back and forth between Asana and Outlook. It is frustrating when I try to open links in Outlook or Asana that they keep opening in Shift, even though I have settings updated to open in Chrome. It has been annoying that I have to right-click on the links to open them in the "default browser" every time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Cait Woodcock of Shift

We appreciate your feedback about the issue with opening links in Chrome. Our team is constantly working to improve the user experience, and we'll definitely take your comments into consideration for future updates. Love hearing that your Shift setup is all the rage in virtual meetings! Getting rid of that tab chaos is a huge plus!

"Shift Makes My Entrepreneurship Endeavours Easier"
5/5
What do you like best about Shift?

I adore Shift it has been a staple in my life for many years now, allowing me to seamlessly manage the multiple businesses I run as well as my life as a mature student. I have been able to support my staff with shift and I have also encouraged many other folks to use it as well. It works well on my Apple computers which not all programs do and it is easy to switch between devices much more easily with some of the newer updates. Customer service has also been very helpful in the past when I needed to reach out to them. I use shift every single day! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shift?

I dislike a handful of things about shift but most of them usually get fixed quite quickly. For a while there were some issues were it would shut down without saving your browser pages - but they tend to troubleshoot issues like this very quickly when they are brought to their attention. I have also sent emails to their cusomter support when issues arise and they have done what they can to address them in a timely manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Multitasking at it's best"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Shift?

I'm constantly working on multiple projects at a time as a web developer and I tend to need to sign into services under multiple accounts. Traditional browsers don't facilitate signing into multiple GoDaddy accounts or Google accounts for clients. Shift allows the creation of multiple accounts and signing into different services inside those accounts which is perfect for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shift?

Streamlining some features, and a way to manage tabs easier would be nice. I'm a power user and tend to see myself opening more than several hundred tabs at a time. Many times duplicates, a way to manage these easily would be a great convinience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Cait Woodcock of Shift

It's great to hear that Shift is meeting your needs as a web developer by allowing you to work on multiple projects and sign into different accounts. We appreciate your suggestions for improving tab management and will strive to make the user experience even better.

"The best all in one place for multiple email accounts"
5/5
What do you like best about Shift?

For many years, I had to manage up to 10 email accounts for my clients as an agency owner. That meant having so many open tabs in Chrome and google getting all of the access mixed up. I used to use incognito windows just to keep them separated. Now, with Shift, I have all of these accounts in one place, and each one has its own individual login. Saved me 100's of hours of work. I highly recommend if you have to manage more than 2 in-boxes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shift?

Sometimes, the app has minor glitches. But it is rare and mainly happened with earlier versions. New versions seem very stable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Cait Woodcock of Shift

Thank you for sharing your experience with Shift! We understand the importance of having a reliable platform to manage multiple email accounts, and we're glad to hear that Shift has been able to meet your needs.

Occasionally and maybe its the way I use the platform - I find I have multiple tabs open consecutively on different workspaces Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Cait Woodcock of Shift

Thank you for taking the time to share about your positive experience with Shift! We're thrilled to hear that our platform has helped improve your productivity as a consultant.

What do you like best about Shift?

Shift saves me so much time everyday. It is so easy to keep an eye on my emails while working through out the day. I love that I can connect my other messaging tools as well. Grabbing something real quick in my Google drive is a breeze! My work day would be very bulky without Shift. I am on my third year as a Shift user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
