Gmail is the best for sharing contacts as well as saving passwords or history
At first, I didn't understand why none is saved on the phone just my email. Well, what if I don't have my phone I can log into any device and bc I'm on shared emails I can have everything updated in one click and I love everything Google.
PROSthe format is very easy to learn and with just one click you will be forever in sync with all your shared devices and emails. It's set up to where what u are looking for is right at your fingertips. If you have Gmail then you have it all together synced in your email. Life is better with simple things. Google has become the number one smartest fastest most current updated maps and information that is used the most in your daily routine.
CONSI have no complaints about Gmail but one thing Yahoo had was less security login or 2 step verification sign-ins. It's very easy to recover a yahoo forgotten account but Gmail has extra security that can be annoying.
Reason for choosing Shared Contacts for Gmail
Bc since gmail is google I decided to sync and combine all devices with my one gmail account and google maps will always be needed and shared for important documents

Perfect solution for Google apps users
Fantastic, if we ever had technical issues they were quickly resolved by the support staff.
PROSEasily shares select contacts across Google apps accounts
CONSThere is a short sync delay, usually about 15 minutes.
Vendor Response
Hey Chris, Thanks for your feedback! We're glad that your support experience was good. Regarding the synchronization time, we understand that sometimes depending on how many contacts you share, might take a bit. But also remember that you can always access the app and hit on the sync button manually for more immediate changes. Also if you're in our enterprise plan you can use our Sync Booster Extension for even faster results! Here's a note on the extension: http://blog.gmailsharedcontacts.com/2017/12/waiting-is-out-instant-synchronization.html If you experience any other delays, feel free to message us at any time :)

Worked in the Beginning, now it's a nightmare
Labels are randomly deleted from contacts so they no longer show up in groups; in one instance all A-L contacts were no longer in a particular label, but M-Z was still there. This goes on frequently and we can no longer rely on this. I update my contacts regularly, but it won't reflect in the "shared" version when others in my office try to use them, even though the change I made was MONTHS ago, and then with the random removing of labels, it's just a shot in the dark that my lists any certain day are going to be accurate. It's like it stopped working. I tried to email the company and they have not gotten back to me. I definitely wouldn't recommend this product. Google needs to fix the non-shareability of their contact product themselves since they constantly say their collaboration is what makes Google so great (so why is Contacts the only application you can't share?).
PROSThis product was easy to set up and use at first, and I had high hopes it would be the solution we needed. It worked well for a few months.
CONSThe unreliability is definitely NOT a good thing.
Reason for choosing Shared Contacts for Gmail
This was the only one I could find.

Making contact management easier
I used this software to help me manage and shares my contact list with my colleague for the Gmail application. We can merge our contact list on one single list, and everyone can access to the contact database from this application easily. All the device that linked to the database will automatically synchronized for the latest contact list addition.
CONSThere are time when the server is down and we can't access to the contact data for a long time. I would prefer if they has lower server downtime so user can have access to their data ready every time. Other than that problem, everything else is okay for me.

Label your millions of contacts for a targeted purpose
I am satisfied with Shared Contacts for Gmail.
PROSThe simplicity of access through Google portal. It helps to better work within a team. All the team members have access to the database of the contacts. We send different emails to different groups of people, labeling helps a lot. You can create a shared contacts book and use with your team. Any time new contacts can be added. Contact sharing and syncing helps a lot.
CONSSometimes bugs may appear, you add new contacts, it does not get uploaded, you just need to do it twice.

Good Option
This allows me to have multiple accounts and keep lists updated for me and my team.
PROSThis solution does what it advertises, allows sharing of contact information. It works across many Gmail and Gsuite accounts.
CONSIt is a bit challenging to configure and a bit pricey. Items shared seem to keep dropping off "My Contacts" but that is sort of minor
Vendor Response
Hi, Thanks for your review! Could you please indicate what exactly was unpractical to set up? We would like to improve the service and give you a better experience. Perhaps it has been difficult to get around the new Google Contact Manager? This isn't one of our in-house made products, but we created a guide that could perhaps help you :) http://blog.gappsexperts.com/2018/09/new-google-contact-manager-101-guide.html Let us know if you have any questions!

Must have
I use shared contacts for Gmail nearly everyday. Its the only way to sort out and keep up with all of the information! There's nothing worse than than needing speak to someone immediately and not having their contact information on hand, it can ruin an important opportunity. Shared contacts for Gmail is the solution. It syncs on time and consistently.
CONSThe only thing I would change is the options for contact organization, add more!

Overall Shared contacts with Gmail have saved me from losing a lot of data. Saving customer's information is a plus.

Product Did Not Work - No Response to Refund Request
This product did not work, otherwise I would love to write about its Pros. :(
CONSWe had very high hopes for this product and spent months in preparation to roll it out just right. Unfortunately, Shared Contacts for Gmail® did not work for my team. So much so that it began DELETING the 3,471 contacts from our G Suite Google Contacts Super Admin Account (the account being shared from)... And the company did not know why. Worked with the rep and his team for several weeks (kudos to them) but ultimately we were too uneasy to continue as we cannot afford to lose that which we are trying to protect and streamline the use of - our contacts! I am posting this review due to our experience with the company after realizing the product simply wasn't working as advertised. When asked to receive a refund we were completely ignored. No e-mail stating this was not possible, nothing, no response whatsoever. Multiple e-mails have been sent and over 2.5 months have passed with only crickets in return. This is extremely disappointing and I would hope Shared Contacts for Gmail® has the professionalism and integrity to issue a refund when their product does not work. We dedicated an excessive amount of time to make things work only to have Hundreds of Dollars lost. Do not trust this company with your time, money, or contacts.

Never Lost Your Contacts
MY experience is un-explainable because since my kid days I am still using Gmail Shared Contact features to store for all my contactability needs.I still have details which were used long long ago ,decade almost i should say. If you ever look back towards than only ,one would know how valuable it is which store precious details so easily . Moreover I would love to go out of my way to say, I love it so much that I am still using the same GMAIL account/ shared features which I created 20 Years Ago as a kid.
PROSGmail shared contacts is one of the easiest tool one would ever imagine that value you contacts with ease with absolute security.It never let your contactablity go away from yourself.It is so easy that if you ever used a contact details using this source to communicate with anyone than no matter what happens it will always be there however details need to be synced..I think 80% of people as a computer user is very much aware what a shared contacts gmail is .and It is exceptional because it touches millions of people around the world by giving a opportunity and value every contactability one has ever used keeping everything easy.
CONSThe lease I like about it is, the customer service response because as per my personal experience it took three long days to respond any little query over a simple glitch occured .We are in 21st century and it is not appreciable in such a fast pace world.

Very difficult and temperamental product
Bit primitive. User interface is rubbish. Not reliable but not much else out there that does the same apart from similarly named product which we are trying now but their helpline is not as good as Shared Contacts for Gmail.
PROSIt shares contacts amongst the selected team members which google doesn't do. Good helpful helpline staff.
CONSVery difficult to manage the users and impossible to manage contacts. Cannot really see which user has access to what folder of contacts you have to go into each one to see what level access each user has. Cannot see which contacts were created by whom. Cannot see which contact belongs to more than one folder. Cannot customise filters . I don't Thinks you can mass allocate folders with contact to the same users. It doesn't propagate to all user's Samsung phones. Problem with a change of email name on Google workspace which made shared contacts stop working.
Reason for choosing Shared Contacts for Gmail
At the time there were no alternatives. We didn't want to give someone else permission to send on our behalf sand only wanted the client contacts pooled so all staff could access
