Best plugin to help you with your email
With Boomerang integrated with Gmail, one thing that I like very much is the Pause inbox option which allows me to rest and recharge and respond to long list of emails
PROSUsing Boomerang for Gmail, I am easily able to schedule emails to go at a particular time and also resend certain emails if there are no responses or follow-ups are required
CONSI cannot think of any dislike for Boomerang. It has been a life saver for me

Boomerang has changed the way I use email
The benefits are far greater than the costs. It really helps me keep after people when I need to get something done.
PROSThe tool is simple, there aren't a ton of features, so it's easy to use it for what it's built for. It does a great job at making sure I don't forget about an email that needs to be responded to, but doesn't need a response right now. The other great thing about it is that bayden does this program called "Revive your inbox" that really teaches you best practices about how to manage your email program. It has changed me from creating layers and layers of folders and spending a bunch of time filing emails that I'll probably never need again, to someone who can use the search feature in gmail to find what I need whenever I need it.
CONSIt can be easy to create a backlog of boomerang messages in your inbox. Too easy to put off that follow up you need to do.

Felt like I lost control
It's ok but not worth the money. I felt that it was somewhat intrusive as well, without offering enough payback.
PROSWe used this for a while the idea being to replace our CRM system. It wasn't a viable replacement. Overall it's ok.
CONSI stopped using it the free version wasn't good enough and the paid version didn't seem worth it. We are back to using our CRM.

Boomerang - super useful
This is a really easy way to supplant a CRM and make sure you never forget about an outstanding email or question
PROSSuper easy to use and a very seamless way to never miss anything/let nothing fall through the cracks. Over time more features were built, but the OG purpose is still the core one I use: have email go back to top of your inbox after x time, if conditions y are met (e.g. you never got a reply, which is the one I use 95% of the time)
CONSSmall details only - because I don't use threads in my inbox, instead 1 email is 1 row, I'll get a notification that an email triggered that I need to follow-up on (e.g. havent gotten a reply to an email in 2 weeks), but then I need to click into it and separately open the email in question. It would be great if the reminder immediately included the email its about as well.
