Drag is the best Clientflow alternative if…

Your organization uses Google Workspace

Your team already uses Gmail, and Clientflow is an extra tool. Their users constantly switch between Clientflow (to support customers) and Gmail (to check individual emails). Drag is an excellent Clientflow alternative for Gmail users because it lives in Gmail and stops the unnecessary back and forth.

You need a simple Shared Inbox

Clientflow is great to handle Help Desk tickets and perhaps project management also. Drag is more specialist: we handle workflows. Our boards bring a series of workflow management features such as tasks, checklists, due dates or file sharing, for teams with email-driven workflows. This means you can also manage tasks, accounts, sales pipelines and other workflows from the same place.

How we stack up.

It’s not just us, users on G2 and Capterra are saying the same thing about their experiences. Drag scores higher in the following categories that matter most for customers.

Why Drag is the best Clientflow alternative for Gmail users.

Drag lives in Gmail

Imagine a Help Desk card. What does it look like? For us, it looks like an email converted into a ticket. When closed, this ticket is then turned back into an email to customers. Why do we have to convert emails into tickets, and tickets into emails? Simply because email was not built to be a Help Desk. But Drag solves this. Drag superpowers Gmail to allow teams to manage Help Desk right from inside the place they spend most of their time – Inbox.

Work in a visual way

Visual workflows are proven to make your team work faster and happier. The best workflow management tools out there, offer visual ways of working.

Drag is not different. Besides the traditional email list view, Drag brings a visual kanban view to email to make your life easier.

Manage more than incoming inquiries: manage tasks

Front is very good if you want to collaborate on incoming emails or enquiries. Incoming enquiries are the core of most workflows, but sometimes enquiries alone are not enough. In Drag, you have all the context you need around a workflow from one place – emails, contact info, to-do lists, notes, files, external links and more.

Human customer service

Starting with the service you will be able to provide to your customers. No more ‘reply above this line’ or robotized ways of serving customers. Have human conversations with simple shared inboxes from Gmail.

Besides, if expect to receive fast, human and 5-star support from Clientflow as a customer, well good luck. In Drag, our Customer Champions are always eager to connect by email, live chat or calls to help you throughout the journey with us.

Easy to set up, easy to use

Forget about endless training sessions to onboard your team to a new customer support tool. Drag not only works in Gmail, but can be set up in a very simply way, saving your team time and energy. Drag is the simplest Clientflow alternative you will find.
