I love their blackhole feature! I get so many emails and they get all of those emails out of my way!
I wish they had an unlimited plan for just one email address.
It allows me to get rid of annoying holiday marketing emails and allows me to snooze emails from my colleagues so I can actually enjoy my vacation!
SaneBox is easy to use and very intuitive. It helps me re-direct unwanted emails to the right place, along with keeping emails "for later" in the best folder. The digests are also extremely helpful in cleaning up my email folders!
I haven't found anything in SaneBox that I don't like!
Cleaning up old emails and keeping track (and redirecting, where necessary) of new emails. I've already cleaned up thousands of out-of-date and unnecessary emails.
I've been using SaneBox for a few years now. It has saved me a LOT of time and helped me organize my mailbox so that I will see what is important first and never lose the messages that really matter.
So far, I have no complaints about SaneBox... maybe I could have one or two extra folders in my basic plan, I would love this! ;)
I receive a lot of e-mails that are not all that important, but I like to check them every once in a while; they sometimes have some interesting information too. With SaneBox I can manage to put all these e-mails in one folder and prioritize e-mails concerned with my work, bills etc.
The filter function is amazing- I only see the high priority emails until I'm ready to see the others. The do not disturb function means I don't even see emails until the times I've scheduled- but they're always accessible if I'm waiting for an important one. Being able to set an email to reappear a few minutes, days, weeks, or in a year is brilliant for following up on things that haven't been done.
I had to be SUPER picky about this since there literally isn't anything I dislike! I find the way that it marks the emails that reappear with [SANEBOX] in the subject line mildly perturbing, but if I'm forwarding it on it only takes a moment to delete that out. Also I put a note explaining about it in my footer message and most of the time I don't even worry about it now!
I used to constantly have over 1000 emails in my inbox and now if I have more than 20 I know it's been a bad day! It means that I'm not wading through heaps of emails just to find ones from clients, and if I want to send a newsletter to the @sanenews folder I don't have to take the time to train it using the rule wizard, I just drag and drop it in that folder and it's trained. I definitely wouldn't be this under control if I didn't have sanebox!
Like too many people in business, I get way too many emails. With SaneBox, I achieve ZERO emails in my Inbox at least once a day. It's a beautiful thing. I did not use a competing product beforehand - I receive all emails through a Gmail account and had tried using Google's built-in tools, but they are not sufficiently robust. The UI is pretty simple and has a sense of humor. SaneBox isn't costly - the ROI is huge.
I really cannot name anything I dislike.
SaneBox saves me time, pure and simple.
I went from 2500 unread emails to 250 in about 15 minutes. No training required.
Processing the daily digests leaves me with a to-do that I never seem to get around to doing.
Email is a torrent. Keeping from drowning is a daily challenge. Sanebox is the best life preserver I've found.
SaneBox is terrific at helping with email management. It has tons of options to meet a variety of needs.
Not all of its features are intuitive, but customer support is always available to help.
SaneBox is great at helping prioritize important messages. I especially like its associated features, such as snooze, and reminders if an email isn't answered.
The best feature for me is its intelligence to filter email. I get about 100 emails per day and thanks to Sanebox I can successfully process them in under 1 hour per day. Their batching system of unimportant email and daily Digest is key for this. The SaneReminders feature is also amazing. Just CC a Sanebox address and it will automatically let you know if no answer has been provided. I love their training system where I can "blackhole" a contact and never hear from them again! It's full of features that allows users to never look back!
I would love to be able to Balckhole a whole domain. Right now I can only blackhole a particular sender. Also, greta feature for the assistant to check Digest but it would be great to give partial control over those emails, not full. For enable save in another folder all the email processed by the assistant to check later if anything interesting has been lost. Finally it would be awesome to have the opposite of Do Not Disturb in the sense that I would like to have it always be in Do Not Disturb except on the times I check email twice a day (for example).
Email overload and processing time. I can now focus on the important and leave the unimportant to check every couple of days or once a week.
When I look at my email, I know what is most important. I don't have to worry about all the other fluff out there. Also, if I haven't heard from someone in a while or if they are new, they are neatly put in my SaneLater folder, which has become a lifesaver.
Honestly, there aren't any downsides. I could not imagine life without SaneBox. I've been using it for years and assume this is how email is for me now. The only time that I remember how terrible life used to be is when I changed my password, and SaneBox is disabled for a bit. I go crazy!
SaneBox keeps my email box sane. I still get hundreds of emails but I really only have to look at the ones that are for me. Plus, it does a really good job of learning what is important to me.
