"Schedule Time for email"
2.5/5
What do you like best about Boomerang for Gmail?

It's been helpful especially when I have an email to send at a later time and I might not remember the time to send it, so I just schedule a time for it to be sent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Boomerang for Gmail?

It needs more features so that it can be more popular in the business industry Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Makes my life so much easier..."
5/5
What do you like best about Boomerang for Gmail?

I use Boomerang in two specific ways: 1) to help find a meeting time that works for everyone (some people are just allergic to Doodle polls) and 2) to delay emails so they are sent out at the time of my choosing.

Both features are great. I'm an independent consultant, and when I am working with a company where everyone can see everyone else's schedule, but not mine, I can just share availability and everyone's happy.

I use the delayed emails for making sure instruction emails hit people's inbox at the right time (hint: it's not first thing on Monday morning when their inbox is full of news). It works seemlessly and I am super happy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Boomerang for Gmail?

I have found that some people (email recipients) are "afraid" to click the buttons that show up in the email when I use "Suggest Times". They just send me an email telling me their prefferred time, rather than clicking the button. (eye roll) . And I'm not sure if it works well across time zones (I dont know if it "translates" the time), so I am hesitant to use it outside of my own timezone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Boomerang for email followup"
5/5
What do you like best about Boomerang for Gmail?

I use the 'return conversation to inbox feature daily' when I send emails out to make sure they come back to my inbox if there is no reply. I use this feature daily. This helps our team make sure that no follow up slips through the cracks without us having to note it separately! I also use Boomerang Bookable Schedule for scheduling interviews, it makes it so simple for candidates to select times and automatically sends an email out with calendar invites and video links. The boomerang team is also super helpful and quick to reply if I'm ever having any issues. Boomerang integrates seemlessly with gmail. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Boomerang for Gmail?

Sometimes emailed get pinged back to my inbox even if there's been correspondence since then on the thread. I think this happens when someone replies to a different email on the thread or I've sent another additional email they've replied to, etc. so I've boomeranged the 'wrong' message. This can just be annoying - but its really not a big issue and better safe (multiple emails that I don't need) than sorry (missing an important follow up!) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"No More Juggling Calendars!"
5/5
What do you like best about Boomerang for Gmail?

I love that you can overlay all of your coworker's calendars with a simple selection tool. I also love that it is all done directly in my gmail app and I don't have to switch back and forth between email and my Google calendar. It is super easy to implement, a quick plugin download and you are ready to go! I also love how easy it is to overlay various timezones so I can send my clients meeting options in their own timezone. The fact that the availability is a live feed is also super useful - no more double bookings!

I use it every day - last year alone I scheduled over 120 meetings using Boomerang and I suggest it to everyone at my office! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Boomerang for Gmail?

I wish I could import the entirety of my calendar contacts at once. I have to currently add people's calendars one-by-one and in a large company that can be time consuming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I Confidently Suggest to USE Boomerang. It saves my time, big-time!"
5/5
What do you like best about Boomerang for Gmail?

Two best features:

- I can customize and completely control my schedule. The control options are easy to use and very handy.

- The seamless integration on Gmail, makes it very easy to integrate my booking link on email and use it on other communications apps too.

- I use it everyday.

_ Learning to use and implement was simple and quick.

- The over lay of Google Calendar and auto adding the invite has made me keep track of meetings hassle-free. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Boomerang for Gmail?

- I genuinely feel and need a reminder for the meetings setup on the Google Calendar via email and whatsapp to the organizer and the guests too.

- And also if an auto follow up or reminder system (to book meeting) can be shared after the meeting link is shared with a client. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great tool to use across platforms!"
5/5
What do you like best about Boomerang for Gmail?

I signed up for Boomerang primarily for the ability to return messages at a later date. I use the tool daily! I've also taken to using the meeting scheduler for external meetings for colleagues that are on a different calendar system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Boomerang for Gmail?

It's not available within Gmail on mobile. The app for Boomerang is a little wonky. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Streamlined and integrated efficiency"
5/5
What do you like best about Boomerang for Gmail?

The fact that boomerang's meeting features along with all of its excell t features are directly integrated into gmail makes it d

Seamless to sugest meetings with preset availabilities or specific ones. Connecting the calendar so that once a meeting is booked it prevents others from booking that time slot is game changer, where before I would tell clients I'm free on Tuesday and then both of them say yes.

Great software! Especially for a small business Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Boomerang for Gmail?

I dont k ow that there is anything except the fact that it's English only? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Makes my life much easier!"
5/5
What do you like best about Boomerang for Gmail?

I love that I can pop my availability right into an email with the click of a button. It makes life so much easier. I'm no longer wasting time looking at my schedule, dropping my availability into an email, and by the time they respond I am booked for that time and we have to start all over again. It's very easy to learn and use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Boomerang for Gmail?

I guess the only downside is I can run out of the free 'boomerangs' Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good service for scheduling reminders and emails, could use some upgrades"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Boomerang for Gmail?

Boomerang was one of the original scheduling extensions I believe, even before Gmail integrated it into their native UI. Boomerang still provides good freemium features, and I like that it incorporates the ability to schedule meetings as well as emails, and to track opens of messages sent using the extension. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Boomerang for Gmail?

I think the service has been trying to integrate too many features, like the AI content generator, that seem unnecessary and is distracting to the original interface. I think Boomerang should work on refining its original services (which might encourage me to upgrade to Premium) rather than incorporating new features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
