(2019-12-05) Alex King: This extension allows us to share emails and assign them to each other. We can also leave notes for each other on each email so that anyone can see notes regarding an email. It is so easy to use and works so well. We're very impressed. We have been using this extension for quite a while now and on the couple of occasions that we have had to ask for support they have been exceptional, helping us out very quickly and getting everything running smoothly. I couldn't recommend this company any higher than I already do.
(2019-12-05) Fin Brown: We use Hiver for managing, assigning and keeping track of email conversations. It works great! As a small company it is vital for us to ensure all emails are responded to on time and Hiver allows us to do so with an easy to use interface which interfaces seamlessly into GMail. The ability to add tags to emails and categorize them into Open, Pending and Closed has really helped our workflow. We considered a few other alternatives, however Hiver came out top on price and quality! We would highly recommend!
(2019-12-05) Lee Thompson: Our small IT Support company have been using this extension for 6 months and have found it invaluable in tracking activities through the company, being able to quickly search through tagged emails and using it as a ticket support system. Would highly recommend!
(2019-12-05) Graham Miles: We trialled a few shared support mailboxes before Hiver but they all had compromises or were a bit flakey. Whilst Hiver is more expensive than the others, it does everything we want and more besides. We're very happy with it and would recommend to other support teams.
(2019-09-24) Enrique Quintas: We have been using hiver for two years and our life has changed since then, a great tool to improve your productivity with a great support service
(2019-09-18) Jennifer Conradi: Hiver has allowed our three-person team to effectively share an inbox that handles hundreds of emails a day. I love how we can assign the emails to each other, make notes, etc. I highly recommend this product.
(2019-09-17) Patch of Shade: I've been using Hiver with my gmail account (where several of my business emails converge) for over a year. MY primary use is to share invoices and payment confirmation emails that come to me with our bookkeeper. Hiver lets me add notes and instructions for the book keeper, and she can ask me questions, too. It has saved me a ton of time and increased clarity for these tasks and I would not want to do without this functionality any more.
(2019-09-17) Kimball Lewis: We discovered Hiver as a simple way to manage Gmail customer support issues. We use both shared mailboxes and shared labels. It does exactly what we want it to do and it is simple. We tested Freshdesk and few other customer service portals, but our customer support team was adamant that the simplicity and integration with GSuite made things much easier. We've been using for 2 years and very, very happy with our choice.
(2019-09-17) Nucharee Ruchirakul: Excellent tool. Hiver has improved our efficiency and increased productivity. Excellent customer service!
(2019-09-12) Jonathan Alejandro: We've been using Hiver for almost two years now and I look back and wonder how did we ever survive without it? From my team's perspective, it helps everyone stay in tune with all of our active orders. From a management perspective, it helps me stay in touch with the communication between my team and our clients. Hiver is great and to say it was a game changer is an understatement!
(2019-09-12) Ronaldo Olivas: We've been using Hiver for several months now to triage customer service related emails and we've really enjoyed its functionality! Great extension!
(2019-09-12) Jonathan George: We have been using Harvest for a few years now. The developers have done a fantastic job at developing and improving the platform. Having the ability to properly share and collaborate on emails has been so beneficial to our workflow. Great job guys!
(2019-09-12) Gerrit Ferwerda: This is the Gmail shared inbox tool we have been waiting for. Our team never misses a beat because of this. The simplicity and power of Hiver is fantastic. 5/5
(2019-09-12) Jessie Mao: We use Hiver for our startup. It's been great being able to assign cases to different team members. Another pro is that we can all view each others emails when a team member is away or on leave, no more leaving temp passwords for another coworker. We like the new redesign. Some hiccups at times, sometimes linked to when gmail was having issues. But nothing big.
(2018-12-04) Ian Walls: Within 2 minutes of installing the extension and before I even had a chance to look at it one of their sales people was on the phone to me. Pushy practice. Not very professional. Extension immediately deleted.
(2018-06-12) Rustom Jehangir: We've been using Hiver for a year and it's kept everyone in the loop on support and customer service emails in a way the Gmail alone cannot handle.
(2018-06-07) Pamela Brown: This is a wonderful product! We've been using it for a couple of years and it is instrumental to our business. By sharing emails across our team, we have increased efficiency and improved quality of life. Highly recommended!
(2018-05-31) Jon Lara: Poor training and no documentation on anything about this. It caused us a huge mess with our customer service team. Emails got messed up and orders lost. They refused to give us even a partial refund. NO NOT PAY THEM FOR A YEAR. If it does not work out they will keep your money. Every time I had to contact support I had to explain myself 3-4 times before they had any idea what I was asking. VERY upset with this company and the way they treat their customers. The software has cost us thousands for dollars in screwups and down time.
(2018-05-04) Billy Berry: Excellent product. Has helped us tremendously especially the shared labels.
(2017-10-03) Damiko Dickson: Our company has been using Hiver for several months. It has been a well received addition to our business and the product has improved our efficiency and increased productivity. I highly recommend this tool for your shared email needs.
(2017-09-29) Scott Lyon: Hiver is a efficient tool allowing staff of 3 to share a workflow email with exceptional tracking of activity. Pricing is small business friendly and the customer support is strong. Hiver strives to increase efficiency on their product which benefits all. Thank You Hiver.
(2017-09-27) Hans Klassen: Great product. We only have a team of three, but Hiver works perfectly for us. We have been using it for about 3 months and now don't know what we'd do without it. For the few questions we've had, Customer Support is personal and fast
(2017-09-26) Mike Schoeneman: Great product! customer support is spot on. I have three locations and multiple sales staff working from home and Hiver works perfect.
(2017-09-07) Trishla Talera: Hiver has been a extremely helpful to our team! After struggling with internal communications at our organisation for a long time, we were relieved when a friend recommended Hiver. It has made the team more efficient and we don't miss any more emails.
(2017-08-05) Elise Lepple: The G Suite/Google Groups shared email functionality isn't too spectacular so we were thrilled to find Hiver. We've been using it for a little over 2 months now, and we love it. We use automations to assign different types of enquiries to the right person, solve lots of problems using notes where we might have have to email or make phone calls before, and the feature to show if someone is currently replying is very useful.

I can't find my assignments after the initial notification.
(2016-04-20, v:3.4) Notes disappearing or moving
Notes I add often disappear. Sometimes they are transferred to different email chains altogether that share none of the same contacts. About 50% of the time, the loading wheel turns indefinitely. I love the notes feature but it is not reliable for me.
