### "I love Shift"

October 22, 2019

5.0

Shift is allowing me to be much more productive and saves me time.

Pros

I love the ease in having all my teams programs and resources in one place. I am on Shift 80% of my day and do not need to leave most of the time.

Cons

Username and passwords don't save. Maybe there is a work around?

### "Missing outlook server email integration to be a home-run"

February 13, 2021

5.0

If they can provide outlook support it will become one of my favorite products.

Pros

Shift is awesome. I love having everything work related in one “space”. Product is clean, functions as intended, and is a staple in my workspace.

Cons

It’s inability to function with our company outlook email without a workaround is a serious inconvenience.

### "Love it."

October 15, 2019

5.0

Pros

I love the Gmail integration, I love how easy it is to get to my Google calender, Google Drive and gmail all from the same tab.

Cons

I think the internet tabs still need a little more work. I would like the option to open links Google Chrome instead of on Shift.

### "Great Experiance"

October 15, 2019

5.0

My multi tasking productivity has increased, having 2 chat platforms plus 3 emails all in the same window that uses less resources then Google Chrome, makes things a lot easier for me.

Pros

I like that I have all of my email accounts in one place, with my Multiple Chat platforms that are needed for my day to day tasks at work.

Cons

I deleted Slack from the application due to not being able to use multiple work spaces on it, and it keeps loading every day.

### "Great Software"

October 15, 2019

5.0

I have tried to find something better but simply cannot. Shift is the best there is right now.

Pros

I compared a couple of software solutions that do the same thing as Shift. In doing so, I kept coming back to Shift. Shift is fast, easy to setup and extremely reliable.

Cons

Skype disconnects and I have to sign in again. This is not a huge con but it still exists. I think this is more of a Skype issue and not Shift related.

### "Didn't do much for me..."

December 26, 2018

3.0

This app wasn't worth the price tag at all, and I was extremely disappointed after gaining full access to its features.

Pros

I liked being able to search for documents from multiple accounts.

Cons

I wish that Shift would have allowed trial users to test out the app features. I purchased the advanced subscription in order to have access to it, and found that it was a glorified web browser.

### "Overall great experience. With 9 inboxes and a Trello to manage, Shift has transformed my worklife!"

January 12, 2018

4.0

Pros

Ability to be logged in to all accounts at the same time and not run into regular browser issues that I used to encounter. Especially love being able to work with all the different Drive accounts and files within them.

Cons

I have issues with office365 accounts that I've added. Constantly logging me out and have also had several issues with the number of unread messages notification. Run into issues with opening links some times.

### "I am happy to see my communication application in one place."

January 10, 2018

3.0

Pros

About this software, my favorite thing is that the communication tools I always use can be used in one place. The point that Grammery can be used is also good.

Cons

As you install slack, twitter etc, loading will be delayed and no notice will come. Is it saving memory and operating it? Honestly, it seems that the operation will be faster as soon as displaying the application installed on shift with multiple tabs in the browser.

### "Easier Workflow"

January 7, 2020

5.0

Other than the issue with having to force quit it works really well.

Pros

The consolidation of multiple windows into a single app makes my workflow so much easier. I can check my email, respond to Slack messages, updated Freshdesk tickets and punch in and out for my shifts all from one place.

Cons

Upon launching the app at login it will sometimes not load. Force-quitting and reopening will resolve.

### "If you’re managing multiple in-boxes you need Shift"

October 21, 2019

4.0

Easy and straightforward. Shift has streamlined my inbox challenges and enabled improved responsiveness

Pros

I have several different email accounts assigned by my clients for their simplicity - but until I found shift this mde my life complicated. It has made it much easier to track my many inboxes and be more responsive.

Cons

Periodically it seems to log out of EVERYTHING which is a real pain.

### "Shift Review"

October 22, 2019

4.0

I'm an everyday Dropbox, Evernote, Slack, and Basecamp user so having those extensions is really helpful.

Pros

The many extensions that enable working on multiple items while in the same application.

Cons

I'm not sure if it's a Google thing, but I have to reauthorize Shift to access my Gmail accounts at least once a week.

### "Helpful Software, but Buggy"

October 21, 2019

4.0

I use this mostly for my communication applications, I think it is very valuable for me and I will likely continue to use it as I find the consolidation very satisfying.

Pros

I love the concept. It is very nice having all my essentials in one application and consolidated in such a way. I like that I can ignore all notifications of one app if I need to not be disturbed.

Cons

A few plugins can be very buggy at times. For example, Slack is an application I use most frequently, but there are a few things that frustrate me on a daily basis. Sometimes clicks don't register, sometimes it is laggy in general, also when you hover on an emoji reaction to a message, the names of the 'reactors' do not display. Small things, but behavior I would not expect.

### "Almost perfect. "

October 15, 2019

4.0

Helps my productivity greatly. Anyone looking to save time in the day should use shift.

Pros

I love the amount of apps it integrates with. It’s brilliant and almost perfect.

Cons

The gmail integration always needs to be refreshed. I’m constantly “allowing” gmail to be authorized. Shouldn’t I only have to do this once? Not a lot of gmail extensions are accepted either.

### "Great Efficiency Product"

October 22, 2019

5.0

Wonderful. Could not be happier with my decision to got to Shift

Pros

I love that I can have all the "apps" I use during my daily routine in one spot. I used to have like 30 tabs up and running! Now I use Shift to help with that. I have all my gmail accounts connected to it. I have my business apps from Xero, Hubspot, HelloSign, Slack, Stripe, ClickUp, Toggl, and Sure Payroll. A dream!

Cons

Not much at all. Looking forward to more app integration! There very very small hiccups sometimes deleting emails.

Thank you for your review! We're happy to hear that you're no longer running 30+ tabs because of Shift. We're adding new app integrations all the time. If you have some specific apps that you would like us to add, feel free to let us know and we can add them to the list.

October 21, 2019

5.0

Love SHIFT. Don't know what I would do without it.

Pros

So easy to use and manage all the clients I have. Great add-ons.

Cons

1 bug a year, which I would think is best in class. Very infrequent, not an issue.

January 9, 2018

5.0

Pros

Everything is streamlined. I love how I can use all of my communication tools all in one platform. This tool should be used by every communications professional.

Cons

Sometimes cookies get messed up. I have to keep logging in with a few of my accounts. I have to shut my computer off in order for it to work.

### "Can't live without it."

October 16, 2019

4.0

Saving time logging into multiple inboxes as well as making my day easier.

Pros

I manage multiple email accounts and it is a lifesaver to have all of these accounts in one place. It saves me so much time and energy to only have to log in once and can access another account at the click of a button.

Cons

I wish there were an app so we could view on our phone or ipad.

### "Great place to navigate between all my SAAS products! "

October 15, 2019

5.0

Pros

I no longer need a million different browser tabs open. I now have one easy-to-access dashboard that integrates with most of my SAAS apps and gmail accounts. As an entrepreneur, this has made my days way more efficient.

Cons

Sometimes a bit slow and not all my SAAS products are integrated with Shift-- but I know they are working on this.

### "Increased organization and productivity!"

October 22, 2019

5.0

Pros

I have been using Shift daily for close to a year. Being able to access multiple emails has increased my organization and productivity. It's been a game-changer! It's super easy to set up, and very user-friendly.

Cons

The thing that I like least about Shift is that it randomly shuts down. Not often, but occasionally it does shut down.

### "It's been a lifesaver in many regards...I use many accounts on a day to day basis and it has helpsed"

December 21, 2017

4.0

This isn't really a con but sometimes I forget I have shift and revert to old habits of using the web browser and don't notice for a significant period of time.

Pros

The ability to switch between accounts has been a godsend for me, as I use multiple on a daily basis. Shared accounts between me and my coworkers work seamlessly.

### "If it didn't make my computer overheat, I'd never use anything else"

December 20, 2018

4.0

If it was more lightweight, I'd use it. If Discord can be lightweight, so can Shift. If they improve, I'll be back.

Pros

Shift puts all your email inboxes in one place. You can click through different gmails. I need this in my life!

Cons

It overheated my MacBook Air, and I was devastated. I really liked this software.

December 18, 2017

5.0

Pros

I have loved having the ability to have multiple email accounts open at the same time! I have multiple email addresses that I need to monitor at work, and having the ability to have them all logged in and able to receive notifications from both has been such a value add to my day!

October 25, 2019

With Shift I’m able to run my spreadsheets, answer calls, and email. My team and I have access to all our information at the same time with ease.

Pros

I like that I dont have to open a ton of Windows to run my office. the programs I use regularly are at the click of a button and easy to access.

Cons

Getting used to it took some time somewhat difficult to set up.

### "Time saver!"

October 24, 2019

5.0

Pros

I love how everything I use is all right here at my fingertips. I was always closing out of extra tabs because they bothered me with their clutter. I'm now able to keep everything open and available for immediate use.

Cons

Honestly, I love everything about this software. The only inconvenience I've really found is that I can only have one QuickBooks Online tab open at once instead of multiples like I can have in a browser.

Response from Shift Technologies Inc.

January 10, 2020

Thanks for the review! Glad to hear you're saving time with Shift. You may already have noticed, but with the Shift 4.0 release and the added functionality of focused web tabs, you will be able to have multiple instances of QuickBooks online open. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to our support team.

December 19, 2017

5.0

Pros

Shift is a genius idea! I love being able to access multiple google drives/emails so conveniently. It is a breeze to have everything in one spot.

Cons

I'd love to access all of the amazon features for free, but it's absolutely worth every penny! I totally recommend to anyone that uses multiple accounts daily.
