Guy G
Director
5.0

Guy G.: Hi, my name's Guy. I am a director in the health and fitness industry. And I would give Boomerang for Gmail a five out of five. For more reviews, click below. So a long time before Boomerang for Gmail, I used Outlook and I used to occasionally schedule emails, but then I stopped using Outlook for a while and switched to Gmail. And I had nothing really that would schedule emails or snooze them. So when I found Boomerang I installed it straight away and got started. So Boomerang for Gmail was a no-brainer really. A friend of mine recommended it to me and there's a bunch of things, but the main ones are the ability to schedule emails to be sent at a specific time. So maybe I'll be writing an email on a Sunday, but I don't want to send it on Sunday. I want to send it on Monday morning so it hits the person's inbox at the right time. But you can also pause emails or if you receive an email at an inconvenient time, then you can say Boomerang this back to me at two o'clock this afternoon when I'll be ready for it. And one of the final things that really convinced me to use it is a little bit of, I guess, it's AI, but software that tells you how well your email is likely to be responded to. So it's looking for certain keywords and, I guess, punctuation in the email if you're asking questions. And it gives you a respondability score, which I found really useful. Getting started is super easy. You might need to talk to your Gmail administrator, but that's me so I just install it. And it's pretty intuitive. You'll probably use one or two or more of the features, but that's up to you. But yeah, getting started is super simple. So if you are considering getting Boomerang for Gmail, yeah, I'd suggest it, installing it and giving it a trial. I'm sure there's a free trial option available all or even I think you can have it forever free if you're limited on the certain number of emails you're sending or Boomeranging back to yourself. The other recommendation I'd have is get the app on your probably Android phone, but I'm sure it's probably available on other smart phones as well because there's extra functionality you can use in there. And it's really good to be able to snooze an email or pause, or schedule emails for the future from your phone. So yeah, use it on your phone. And yeah, just take it function by function as you are using it.
