"Great solution for handling external communication internally"
What do you like best about Front?

Front is great for quick communication between team members and easily answering all written inquiries across the org from one central platform. They allow for integrations with Dialpad that allow our employees to answer text messages through it as well as a live chat integration so they can speak with visitors as they come to our website. Set up is easy and support is great. It performs well, is easy to use and learn, and is affordable for our organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

The biggest issue I've found with Front has been personal inboxes. General inboxes are great but personal don't always function as would be expected (ie issues with accessing individual inboxes and sharing all info with teammates). This seems to have improved some, but it is still frustrating looking for an email across your organization and needing to go into individual inboxes to locate it depending on where it has ended up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Michael Hughes of Front

"Streamlines Customer Support with Ease, But Room for Improvement"
What do you like best about Front?

I use Front to respond efficiently to customer emails and tickets while managing my team of customer service agents. It’s easy to navigate, and the quick, simple filters make a real difference when prioritizing tickets by urgency. With just a glance, I can see my team’s activity and manage their inboxes, which helps me allocate work more effectively.

I especially appreciate how Front removes the confusion that often comes with shared inboxes. Features like routing and assigning emails have a noticeable impact on day-to-day work. Conversations can be automatically directed to the right team or person based on rules, which saves time and helps ensure nothing gets missed. Assigning emails also creates clear ownership, so everyone knows exactly who is responsible for responding, reducing duplicate replies and unnecessary delays.

Rules and macros further streamline repetitive tasks, such as tagging emails or sending standard responses, which makes handling a high volume of emails much more efficient. Overall, Front smooths out the workflow and improves coordination across the team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

While Front is a very powerful tool overall, there are a few areas where I think it could be improved. One thing I’ve noticed is the AI feature: it’s very helpful, especially for drafting and summarizing emails, but there used to be an option to adjust the tone of responses (for example, making them more formal, casual, or empathetic). I found that control really useful. I’m not entirely sure whether it’s been removed or changed, but having that option clearly available again would definitely enhance the experience.

Another area is automation. Sometimes the automation rules and workflows can be a bit complex to set up at first, and I’ve also run into cases where the AI chatbot says it’s applying rules but doesn’t actually do so. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Otto B of Front

Thanks so much for the super-detailed review, this is super helpful and great feedback.

If you do ever run into any other situations where rules are not being applied as expected, please don't hesitate to let our team know in our Front Portal: https://help.front.com/en/customer-portal

"Excellent communication and nice new features "
What do you like best about Front?

It’s a very user-friendly platform. The AI features to adjust tone, improve grammar, or translate messages are a huge plus, helping us maintain a professional image for customer support.

It also allows us to set up rules so emails and requests are automatically assigned to each team member, significantly reducing the daily manual work we would otherwise have to do. Additionally, it is easy to integrate with our organization’s existing platforms, which makes implementation smooth and efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

Some emails are occasionally delayed and take a bit longer than expected to arrive. We use Front daily so the volume of email is high. On the other hand, using private tags can sometimes be tricky. When an email is archived or snoozed, it may also be archived or snoozed within the tag folder. This can be confusing, especially if someone doesn’t know that they need to drag the email out of the main inbox so it remains visible under the tag without being archived.

"Makes customer service work enjoyable"
What do you like best about Front?

Front is the email channel that we use at my place of employment. I'm in sales so we use this app to communicate internally with each other, customer service, production facilities, and for customer support as well. All of our emails stay organized and we can search and filter with ease in order to find what we are looking for. We LOVE the @mention feature in Front and use it frequently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

I fully understand if it is unable to link to a Microsoft account, but we would love it if Front had the ability to link up with Microsoft Teams for ease of use and collaboration between calendars. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Otto B of Front

Hey Amber,

Thank you for taking the time to share this review.

I am glad to hear Front is helping your team keep communication organized across departments, and that search, filters, and mentions make it easy to collaborate and find what you need quickly.

I also appreciate the feedback on Microsoft Teams. We hear how valuable a Teams integration could be for smoother collaboration, especially around calendars. Thanks again for sharing your experience and suggestions.

"Simplified Email Management and Efficient Integration"
What do you like best about Front?

I love that Front is an all-in-one tool, easy to use. I find it very practical to be able to tag colleagues and discuss an email, which allows for quick communication. What I appreciate the most is the feature of easily finding an archived email or the history of exchanges. This feature is much more efficient compared to other email services that only find parts of the searched word. As a professional who often needs archived data, this helps me considerably. Moreover, the initial setup of Front went very well because it was simple and ergonomic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

sad color, too many shortcuts that send emails by themselves just because we made a typing error on the keyboard Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Otto B of Front

"LOVE Front!"
What do you like best about Front?

I love that we are able to add several inboxes to Front so we are able to easily jump back and forth between the multiple inboxes when needed to stay on top of everything in a very quick time frame. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

I would like to have more options in the sequences section including being able to add different subject lines and add my signature to emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My front review"
What do you like best about Front?

The software is pretty much unbeatable, no bugs, no crashes, justa smooth and simple interface that is user-friendly and allows you to keep up with the rush of the daily work; on top of that, you are now allowed to interact with pluggins that I personally use for my AI helpers which is great, honestly I'm very happy with Front so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

They improved the glitches. In the last 2 years, they have had them only 2 times. We recently got an interface upgrade, which is what I was complaining about, and so far it has been working nothing but awesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Otto B of Front

Hi Williams, thank you for taking the time to leave this review.

I am really glad to hear Front has been a smooth, reliable experience for you, and that the interface helps you keep up with the pace of day-to-day work. It is also great to hear the improvements and recent interface updates have addressed what you were seeing before.

Thanks as well for calling out how collaboration in Front is helping your team move faster. Making it easy to loop in coworkers and get quick help is exactly what we want to support.

We really appreciate the feedback, and we are glad Front has been working well for you so far.

"Front remains the best!"
What do you like best about Front?

Nothing new. Front is still one of my favorite programs to use. It's easy to work with and look at. I love it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

The only thing I wish is that when I look at my Gmail inbox, the emails that I've archived are still there. The deleted emails are deleted in both places, but I would like the archived to match as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Otto B of Front

Hi Amber, thank you for updating your review and for the continued love for Front! It's awesome to hear you and your team tackled a 40,000+ email backlog in just a month. That's seriously impressive.

On the archive sync with Gmail, that's a fair point and something we've heard from other users too. We'll make sure this feedback gets to our product team. In the meantime, we appreciate you sticking with us!

Thanks for being such a great advocate for Front.

"Colaborative and easy to understand"
What do you like best about Front?

I like that everyone has a lot of visibility. Tags, notes and the rules are the parts I find the most useful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

Several things:

1. If someone from a different thing archives an email, then even if you add an email from a team member, they will never get to see the email... We have lost orders from customers because of this kind of human mistakes.

2. Sometimes, when the teams are returning emails to the first person involved, Front is not so good at actually showing it.

3. If someone is out of the office, as it is distributed randomly, the other members are not aware unless they open that partner inbox. (maybe it's because of the rules) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient Email Management with Minor Glitches"
What do you like best about Front?

I like that Front is easy to use and makes searching through old emails simple. I find the feature to merge emails into one thread very helpful. It really boosts my efficiency and helps me locate things in a timely manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front?

We have issues with the 'reply to' button in certain mailboxes not populating the sender's information, which slows things down. It's only affecting one mailbox, and we have not been able to determine why it does not auto-populate the customer's email address when we reply to their email. So we have to copy and paste their email address each time when sending an email, which impacts performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Otto B of Front

Hi Heather, thanks so much for sharing your experience with Front! It's great to hear that email search and thread merging are helping you stay efficient and organized.

Really sorry to hear about the reply-to issue in that one mailbox. That's definitely not the experience we want you to have. Since it's isolated to a single mailbox, our support team should be able to take a closer look at the configuration and help sort it out. If you haven't already, feel free to reach out to us at support@front.com and we'll dig into it with you.

Thanks again for the feedback, we really appreciate it!
