Overall Satisfaction with Shift
I use Shift to help with my individual productivity. It acts as an easy dashboard for all of the web apps that I use for work in one convenient window, so that I don't have to have a bunch of desktop apps or browers tabs open.
Pros
- Keeps things organized in an intuitive way
- Compatible with all the apps that I use on a regular basis
- Great setting to be able to customize the dashboard
Cons
- Not being able to open Slack Huddle windows so that I can see when people share their screen
- Increased productivity. I no longer have to carve time out of my day to close and reorgnize so many windows and tabs.
- Reduced stress due to improved organization. For example, instead of having to search for the window I opened gmail on, which is very difficult when you have a lot of tabs open, or opening multiple gmail tabs on multiple windows, which adds to the cluttered tabs that make things difficult to find, I know I can always find it on Shift.
- Allows my laptop to run better. I had way too many tabs and windows open before Shift, and it made my computer time out regularly.
I've integrated with Google Apps since we use Gmail. It's great having the Google Apps in their own designated area on the top right. I love that it can be customized to only include the Google Apps I use the most.
Slack is what I use Shift for most often, so it's great to have that as my main page with other apps close at hand on the Shift dashboard, since a lot of what triggers me to go to the other apps stems from Slack.
As a manager, the Culture Amp integration is great. I love being able to simply click over to it so that I can add notes to my 1-on-1 agendas.
I also use the Notion and Figma integration occasionally.

It's increased my productivity a lot. Things used to get lost in all of my web brower tabs, so I had to spend time searching, which was very frustrating, or open new tabs, which made open tabs harder to sift through. Too many tabs would overload my computer and trigger a "forced quit" of everything. Then I would have to reopen the tabs I needed again. This led me to carving out time during the day to reorganize and close tabs on my browser to stay sane and to prevent my computer from having a melt down. I no longer have to spend time doing all of that every day.
