it's not working anymore... I uninstalled the extension and re-installed it afterward, it worked for a while and then, failed again.

WARNING: We were longtime users of this application (several years). The application works well. Without warning, Hiver told us our monthly rate would more than double. We did not add any users or functionality, and we had the same monthly rate for years. We contacted Hiver, very confused as to why they would refuse to offer service any longer without a massive price increase. They didn't offer any explanation, didn't offer any color on how many random price increase would occur in the future, and frankly, were pretty rude in their responses to us. We were surprised that they would treat a loyal customer this way, but more importantly, I wouldn't have come to rely on the service if I knew there would be unannounced large price increases (again, with no changes on our end to user count or functionality).

Once existed the paper, there were folders containing contracts with tens or hundreds of sheets. Grexit exists today. Just fantastic. We use it by assigning to each email sent or received our contract internal number. The email with tag or fetch rule become visible to our entire organization or limited according to our rules that we set. In real time we can acces to all records of contracts now or in 1 month or in one 1 year or more. Also noteworthy is the professionalism of the team Grexit, fast answers, solving problems, in short, the height of their product.

The critical feature that google forgot to include in gmail, is here in Grexit! This plugin has simply revolutionised the way our teams communicate. For project teams, support teams, marketing teams...Grexit is a must. If you need your team to be on the same page, Grexit is a no brainer. I was so fed up of our lawyer, accountant, suppliers and employees etc carbon copying the same email to multiple team members... No one knew who was dealing with what. With Grexit this issue has been solved. Now we use filters to direct email to particular gmail labels and the labels are then shared with the appropriate team members. The team at Grexit has also been great. Extremely efficient service and very open to customer feedback and suggestions. Look forward to more great work from Niraj, Nitesh and the team at Grexit.

Oh jezz finding a solution for our customer service and sales follow up is finally over now that we found this simple and effective way to share email correspondence between multiple accounts. Another great thing is the support came right from the developer himself and they made it better from my suggestions. Great simple tool!

We've been looking for a way to share email since we started using google apps several years ago. I hate the idea of forwarding and cc'ing my own coworkers when there should be a simple easy way to share the email with people in our organization. When we found Grexit, it was a happy day. We were already using labels, so using Grexit fit right into our normal workflow. What's really nice is once you apply a shared label, you get all future conversations from that label and can even choose to have them placed in your inbox so you can keep briefed on conversation even if you're not participating (great for managers or team leaders). We've also been really impressed with the customer service. You can tell they really care a lot about their product/service and want to help. Now, I can't imagine using email without Grexit!

I highly, emphatically, recommend Grexit for organizations who: 1. Use their inbox as the origin point and organizational home of most company tasks. 2. Need to formalize a CRM type of system but need something highly flexible yet clean and simple. Sharing Labels is one of the missing features in google apps (kinda like sharing Tasks is a glaringly omitted feature) and Grexit brings it into your toolbox. The repository is also excellent for power users or those needing a simple wiki for projects. This is the jam for those of us who don't need CRM or simply don't want yet another cloud app in our systems. Oh, and customer/tech support- top notch. Implement this bright little app with confidence. Thanks Grexit! -Chris Zoo CIty Apparel in Missoula, MT

We use it to organize emails that need to be shared and archived at the same time. One or two persons send email to Grexit to be stored and viewed by colleagues. It saves time as there is no need for each individual to file emails. We believe the system needs to be improved though to make filing to folders easier. We have too many projects and e-mails and thus too many folders so it is difficult to find the right folder when we are trying to file an email. There is no need to view immediately all folders whilst trying to file an email. You should see only the main folders and after you click on a folder the subfolders must open and so on. Also when you press Grexit button the drop down menu should have a bigger screen and again subfolders should only open after you chose to open them. Finally when you work in Grexit and you click on a subfolder and then need to go back to another subfolder you need to start looking from the beginning because all subfolders are closed again. These little improvements will make the system more flexible and easy to use thus more useful. If these improvements cannot be made we will have to abandon the system as we will not be able to cope with the vast number of folders and subfolders we view at the same time when we are trying to locate the right folder to file an email

We are a two person business working in separate locations but with the same clients. We needed a way to easily see and reference communications we individually have with the clients, so that we can coordinate the work we are doing and make sure we know the status of issues when one of us is not available. Grexit provides an easy way for us to share and view all our email communications with clients. The labels allow us to designate which client the email pertains to, and to easily find all emails simply by clicking on the client's name in Grexit. This app will be even better once it allows labels to be attached to emails when you compose them, without having to go into sent files to attach the labels, a fix which apparently is in the works. Great customer service response as well.

We use Grexit for accounting and expense tracking. We have several members of our team that manage purchases and forwarding email receipts was never quite effective. We now use shared labels with Grexit to help our entire team, including the accounting department, manage all of our expenses without flooding each other's inbox with forwarded emails. I see new uses for Grexit each day. It works exactly as described and was simple to setup. Highly recommended.
