Since a major part of my job is communicating with vendors via email, it is helpful to have a tool that will allow me to have messages returned to my inbox if there is no reply. And since I often have to send messages on a certain day or at a certain time, I can compose them early and have them sent when I am ready. All of this is available for free, up to a certain number, which I have rarely reached. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have honestly not found much that I dislike about this program. If pressed, I would say that the Remind Me feature jumps the gun a bit when I am trying to set it up: instead of allowing me to confirm a day/time, it will automatically create a default reminder. And I have not yet found a way to cancel a reminder so that I do not use up a free Boomerang unnecessarily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love that you're able to write emails ahead of time and decide precisely when to send them out. If you made a mistake, you can go back to edit the message or attachments. You can also cancel a scheduled email if you don't want it to send. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I once had an issue where I went back to edit an email that I intended to send later, and couldn't find it in the Boomerang Outbox after I edited it. I found out that it did indeed send when I wanted it to, but I was mildly stressed out when I couldn't find it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Keeping track of emails has never been easier, sometimes it is very difficult to read and respond to emails on time, but with Boomerang for Gmail you can reply to emails and set delivery dates and they will be sent when you want, plus I love it because yes I need answers to an urgent email, I can know if this person has read my email and I am calm knowing that I will open a response soon, or I simply call to know their opinion knowing that they have already received and read my email.

Nothing negative is a simple and easy to use platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I follow up on every single client email I receive which can be dozens every day. It would otherwise be impossible for me to keep track of who I need to reach out with. Boomerang keeps track of everything for me and allows customizable expectations of when to return. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes I get an email boomeranged back to me when it shouldn't have been. Not sure why. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I started using Boomerang as a read receipt tracker and also use it frequently as a message snoozer, either to snooze an incoming message for a later time or to schedule send a message at a later time/date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don't have any dislikes, though I think they need to keep up with the new gmail features that are effectively cutting into their niche. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ability to schedule emails as well as some lab features that they are work on are super helpful. Their email reminder, or "boomerang" feature, allows me to re-bump up conversations that I need to pay attention to Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish the Boomerang extension was in more browsers to promote extra usage Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love how it integrates with Gmail. It's second nature. I can easily schedule messages to send or pop back into my inbox. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It can be slightly slow. The extension has to log in each time I Boomerang a message. I also have some concerns about privacy, since it has access to my inbox. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Simple and easy to add the availability of my calendar when engaging with prospects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It can be very buggy. Many times it will not pull in my calendar, or it will pull different times than those which I add. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Such a great feature! I love being able to schedule emails, as well as circle them back to the top of my inbox. It also gives you options, like you can send something the next day, or you can send something in the next hour. The "boomerang" feature, where it takes something to the top of your inbox is the most valuable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I really do not see any downside to using this product. It's helped my workflow so much. The only thing I would enjoy with this feature is perhaps a folder where all of my drafted emails are stored, something that is a little more obvious and organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Read receipts and the ability to put multiple layers of actions on emails that get sent back to me. For example, I can program an email to be sent back to me next Tuesday morning at 9:00am, only if they don't reply, with a note that says exactly how I should take next steps. Very useful in a busy business development environment!
I also love the AI "respondable" feature, I really feel like it's influenced how I write emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Only that competitors are starting to imitate features and offer them for free. For example, Gmail now has Schedule Send which was one of the reasons I originally got Boomerang, but now I have it on Gmail for free... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Boomerang helps me to manage emails more conveniently from the web. I can schedule an email according to my requirements. The meeting schedule feature is also very good I can easily share a meeting from the Gmail account. Follow up feature is also great if forgot some to remind another person. The installation of the boomerang was also very easy. It has bot new features to pause Inbox from receiving the email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The price cost is very high for the professional version and a premium version. It will greate if they make a similar version for outlook. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love how boomerang allows you to send emails back to yourself at a later time. I also love that it allows you to send emails at a scheduled, later time and date, to others. Boomerang serves as a great reminder service as well as a calendar reminder. It will also "nudge" emails that have not gotten a response or been opened by the recipient. If you nudge it it will boomerang the email again, if you do not nudge it you can dismiss it and it gives the user no notification whatsoever Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Boomerang can act up sometimes. It is also an extension for gmail so sometimes it will randomly leave your computer and you will have to redownload it. If you want more than 10 a month (emails to boomerang) you will be required to pay more in your business package. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I'm able to schedule messages and set easy reminders for myself.
I often work odd hours, so I'll find myself responding to an email at 10 or 11pm. I don't want to set an expectation that I can be reached at all hours or that I work 24/7, so if I do write an email late at night, I'll just schedule it to send in the morning of the following day.
Similarly, if I catch an email right away that I can respond to, I'll schedule it to send 10 minutes later, so that my reponse-time is set at a reasonable rate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You get a schedule to send features in your inbox which is cool. You can pause the delivery of emails, and you can get notifications on emails that were not answered. These are all great features that should be included in Gmail, but because they are not, this is a good tool to cover those issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes reminders can get annoying as it results in more emails. Have to have more tools and integrations in your Gmail which could cause security issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Boomerang is great and free extension for gmail, professionally its really helpful also it asks too many permissions of gmail account that needs to be worked with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The addon is free to get for any platform, and compatible with many browsers, it is safe, fast to setup, and start using it.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The addon is very helpful filling the gaps of Gmail, only thing i would bother is we are sharing important information included in gmail services to this addon, but that is a necessity for the features to be enabled. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love the ease of use and its seamless integration into the Gmail interface. I use this regularly to schedule emails and forward emails as reminders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is nothing that I do not like about this product until now. I think an integration to SMS would be excellent for important matters to remember. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Boomerang for Gmail offers a few features that should be integrated into Gmail but are not. It adds a schedule sending feature, can delay the arrival of emails, and bring back to the top of the inbox old emails that have not been responded to and need follow up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It does not offer more than a few features, which is fine, but there is not a lot of additional services provided by this extension. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It gives us the absolute capacity on the handling of our email, we can set time and day for the shipment to be made, as regards the messages received, there is a boomerang button whose function is to program these messages to appear again, if we do not have time to read them in that instant that we received it.
