Trying to find the document that your team shared with you a month ago? Can't remember if it's in gmail, Dropbox, Google Drive, or elsewhere? Creating a collection of tabs and sharing it with your team will ensure that every team member has access to the same resource on every new tab page.

Still using it everyday!

Shame there isn't a Safari version..
Arthur Camara
@stinhambo That's true. We're a small team trying to follow the 80/20 rule and cause the biggest impact. But one day :)
Steven Hambleton
@arthur_camara I totally understand, perhaps if you had a web accessible version of the current bookmark list?
Scott Johnson

The Toby folk seem close at hand, eager to understand the issue and fix it or show me how to do what I'm missing.

Pros:

Works as advertised. I use it to collect bookmarks related to projects and to personal interests.

Cons:

A bit of a learning curve.

Arthur Camara
That's awesome to hear Scott. We are constantly trying to improve the onboarding experience and will keep this in mind for sure. Thank you! πŸŽ‰
Cassidy Robertson

Big fan of the collections and being able to sort my tabs by topic.

Pros:

No frills required! I can share links and context with my team without any extra work or tools.

Cons:

Notifications aren't very helpful, would be nice if they drew attention to the new tab.

Fabiano PS

The team behind it is super friendly and pro-active in making Toby better!

Pros:

It's really helpful way to share links with co-workers, we do it often to share resources for each step of the project and is super helpful

Cons:

There is room to improve when it comes to search

I love Toby, but where is the iOS app and cloud sync?? O.o
Arthur Camara
@douglasevaristo cloud sync is done. Just create an account and use it in multiple computers. iOS app... Well... We have a prototype but still not finished. We're a very small team so things end up taking longer, sorry about that.
Alex Bass
@arthur_camara Any plans for an Android app in the future? I'm now realizing that I'm using Toby in-place/more than bookmarks so not having it on mobile is now driving me nuts :P Keep up the awesome work! (:
Pascal Claisse
Great tool and i love it so far, but is there an option to disable the "new tab" feature?
Thiago de Carvalho
@arthur_camara Same here. I have Product Hunt on my 'new tab' and Toby overrides that. How do we disable it?
Thiago de Carvalho
@arthur_camara Also, you should make your 'welcome email' responsive. I've opened it on my mobile and that's how I see it:

@pnkxx You can use Toby mini for that : https://chrome.google.com/websto...
Arthur Camara
@pnkxx @thiagoafram Yes, you can use Toby mini, which is exactly like Toby but not on the new tab. I'll check that email responsiveness, thanks for that.
Thiago de Carvalho
Hi @arthur_camara. I was using Toby mini as per your recommendation and it was working fine. But since this morning, it also replaced my Product Hunt extension on the 'new tab'. I can confirm I'm using Toby mini and not Toby. Although it was fine yesterday, it changed today. What happened?
Arthur
Toby has become one of the "select" and "essential" extensions on in my browser and that's saying a lot for me. Apart from Lastpass, and Raindrop.io, I don't consider nor use many other extensions in my browser but Toby has become a must and most will agree after using it. Keep up the great work guys, I'm really looking forward to your mobile app, that will be the icing on the Toby cake.
Arthur Camara
@arthurgd3 Wow, what an honor, Arthur. Thanks for your comment. Let me know how you use the new sharing features. πŸ‘―

I started using Toby about a year ago and loved it. However, as I accumulated a couple thousand tabs, it became extremely sluggish. It was so slow that it was pretty much unbearable to use. I want to use Toby Teams, but I think I'd have to start a new account because it's too slow whenever used it. My reason for leaving Toby 5 months or so ago may be an irregular reason as I'm not sure how everyone else is using it, but for me, I was using it to assist with research. So I'd accumulate a lot of tabs and then in the near future go through them and curate/delete/rearrange, but it became too slow to do that. Does anyone else have this issue? Toby's UI is excellent and I really want to use it the way I was using it a year ago, but I've switched back to OneTab for the last 5-6 months.

I absolutely love this extension! Super useful, yet super simple.
Arthur Camara
@bojanvidanovic Great to hear Bojan ❀️ Let us know how your team uses it.

Toby is a great tool and definitely a need, for years I have used tons of apps like this but none of them was useful as toby. This new feature is really dope, congrats guys!
Nitesh Manav
Hey, it's awesome. How can we import current bookmarks into Toby? Is there any way for it? Thank you.
Abhilash Jain
Sweet, Team Toby :)
Arthur Camara
@findabhilash Thanks Abhilash! Let me know if you have any feedback πŸ™Œ

Really loved it in Chrome. With new Firefox I really wish there was a Lite version for it as well. Any plans to do it?
Christine Legge

Toby has been helpful to keep my tabs under control. I now make Toby lists for everything! so great

Pros:

awesome way to share links! it makes my teams workflow much more efficient.

Cons:

none

Arthur Camara
Thanks Christine. So happy Toby is helping you stay organized! Keep up with the good work.

Hi PH :) It's been a long time coming - we are extremely excited about releasing Toby for Teams. We're the first tab manager that teams can use to collaborate. We've had the chance to beta test this feature with 20 other companies including IBM, Twitter, New Relic Bazaarvoice, and more. The team's experience allows you to share knowledge or assets that are commonly used by everyone on the team. That could be brand guidelines, sales enablement docs, or even npm library packages. The power comes when all of your team is on Toby. Every new tab will allow them to access resources immediately rather than using search on 5 different products. To create an organization just click the "+" right beside "My Collections". To share a collection you can select a personal collection and hit share, you'll be prompted by selecting a team or a team member. BLOG: https://www.gettoby.com/blog/pos...

@bennygiang @arthur_camara Toby, please help me with my tabs! I use OneTab but it's hard to manage a 5k saved tabs... It's like an addiction
Eric Gossick

Great app!

Pros:

Super easy for me to share links with my team of technical support engineers, it is great you can rename the links and search for them

Cons:

?...are there? Can't see any!

Arthur Camara
Thanks for the review Eric! If you think of any cons or feedback, find us on twitter @TobyForTabs. πŸ™Œ

This is by far one of the best bookmarks organizing tool ever. Even if you *remove* bookmarks it still is the best organizing tool. Love it. <3
Arthur Camara

Arthur Camara
@rafyasarmatta Awesome, lmk how it goes
