- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13633717, 4 years agoWhen it asked me to verify email, workona tab was frozen and I couldn't even open gmail in other tab. When I tried to verify mozilla warned me about http website only, final site was https - not sure if this is a problem. It is completely bugged, I moved tabs to workspace I created. And now I can't switch to that Firefox Window, if I click on it, it flashes and disappear instantly. I have to click multiple times, before it switches to it and when I press ctrl+t it creates new windows instead of tab...

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14158983, 4 years agoThe functionality is great; the UI is well designed. Workona helps create a focused distraction-free browser usage, even though the browser is used for many vastly different tasks. There are some glitches, but no show-stoppers so far.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Deathshead747, 4 years agoKeeps restoring "non-grouped" tabs each time I re-launch Firefox, which is just downright annoying. In my findings, it seems to consume more memory, makes Firefox a beat slower and seems to not be optimized all that well.
Having said all this, I think this is an AIO Productivity tool which is a must have and is most probably the best "Collections" alternative we have for FF at the moment.
Uninstalled it due to the persistent issues, hopefully the devs address them soon. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 16699644, 4 years agoA very useful way to keep track of lots of tabs without overloading your browser. I've found a few times when tabs have just disappeared so I've started adding then as Resources which will hopefully keep them safe. Pinned tabs are also not recognised for some reason. Just today after a Firefox restart Workona wouldn't work so I had to remove tje add-on, then re-apply it. I feared I was going to loose tabs but all was OK.

- Rated 1 out of 5by JerryNic, 4 years agoFirst of all I am really pissed of because Mozilla/Firefox eliminated to keep tabs stored so the automatically pop up every time one opens the web browser. So far this Workona is a pain in the butt to use. I have not yet discovered how to have my five major tabs open. Grrrrr.
- Rated 3 out of 5by PERCE-NEIGE, 4 years agoIt's not perfect (I would like to have the button to open directly where are my workspaces, and I hate the fact it opens all the tabs when I click on a session name to see which tabs are inside it, it should ask me if I want to switch workspaces or open one). But apart these defects, it's very useful to work on several things. One group of tabs for one task. Please improve the problems related to switching workspaces and open them (so it makes disappear your current tabs) by accident.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15907627, 4 years agoThis is exactly what I've been looking for to help reduce cognitive load when working across a range of projects & tasks. Having all the tabs related to different projects or work modes (tech support, planning etc) means I can shift gears with little mental friction. Before I'd waste time and mental energy re-opening tabs or getting overwhelmed with the clutter of other tabs not immediately relevant to the task at hand.
- Rated 5 out of 5by J H, 4 years agoWorks really good.
Sometimes some tabs are getting closed but maybe I just didn't remember closing them
Watch out, if you open Workona it tries to direct you to bing, but other than that it is a really handy tool. Its collaborative aspect works surprisingly well, too - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14590151, 4 years agoWorks well, being using in Chrome for over a year.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16336480, 4 years agoMoving tabs is bugged. Constantly says that there is no internet connection or throws some "unexected error". How tab management is supposed to work without such important feature?
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16170613, 4 years agoThe idea is interesting, but the execution is awful.
Lost a lot of my tabs by trusting Workona. They simply didn't reload.
Wouldn't recommend, it is way too buggy. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16313897, 4 years ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by hoodwink, 4 years agoWorkona regularly does not restore tabs. It will display the URL in the tab workona.com/redirect/... when you click on it it might restore the tab, but most likely it will lose all history for the tab and revert to a new tab. I've also watched it open a duplicate set of tabs. Every single tab was duplicated alongside the first set of tabs. Use at your own risk!
