- (2021-06-03) Mark Ng: Such a handy tool that really trumps Roam's search functionality!
- (2021-05-16) mingk Chung: Thank Dharam for this wonderful plugin for Roam Research. Roam is the second brain, and Roam Portal helps me immensely to location the information -- Remember the dawn of the internet age that you don't really get what you want until Google arrives? I really hope the author could implement page-level search (search all the block in a same page) rather than just block-level search (only search in the same block). Usually there are hierarchy in the outlier app, e.g., first level is "project A", and 2nd level is "feature A", and rest of the notes about "feature A" are nested in "feature A" block. If I want to search a note about "feature A", typing "feature A" and other keywords could quickly narrow down to a list of relevant blocks. Once again thanks for the plugin and keep up the good work!

- (2021-02-24) ShawnPMurphy8: Absolutely amazing! Couldn't imagine using Roam without Roam Portal! And Dharam is so responsive to feedback and always adding new features!
- (2021-02-18) Victor ESQUERREla: Really a great piece of work, filling the void of default graph view in roam research when complexity come. Congrats !!!
- (2021-02-06) Kura *__M. Kuramoto__*: It is a very helpful tool to interact with Roam Graph - several functions and features that Roam native doesn't have.
- (2021-01-02) J S: Thank you. Keep up the good work, kind developer. Continue to work and share your work with the world. Best wishes for 2021!
- (2020-11-15) David L: Good tool for research in tons of information. However, the search box seems too big and I cant drag it. As a result the bottom of search results cant be seen. The environment is chrome in windows. Edit: I am stupid because I have zoomed the browse bigger. This is why it was not a suitable size.
- (2020-11-10) David Eaton: This is brilliantly done. Definitely a must-have for anyone who uses Roam Research. Strongly recommend. And it keeps getting better. The new visualizations are incredible!!
- (2020-11-09) Linda Koomen: I'm blown away by this extension. It looks and works great!
- (2020-10-27) Byard Parks: This is better than I could have hoped. I was working on Roam just the other day and thinking to myself "The search feature of Roam is somewhat lame. I wonder if that is on any one's radar" Wow! Problem solved! So cool.
- (2020-10-09) Abhay Prasanna: Game changing - surfaces insights on my own DB I would have never found with Roam's native query/search capabilities. Moreover, using the extension to explore a public DB is a delight. Can't wait for what Dharam has next for us!
