Why Keeping is a smart Front alternative

Keeping is the Front alternative that has every feature you need for one low price.

Keeping works inside Gmail

When you install Keeping, we create a new section inside your Gmail. This allows you to continue to use Gmail for your day-to-day work while having easy access to your customer support inbox.

Front, on the other hand, requires that your entire team adjusts how they use email. This is a big change and you can expect some resistance. What good is an expensive new tool if your team doesn't use it?

Only Keeping lets you share your mailbox from right inside Gmail.

Keeping is more affordable

If you want reporting and analytics, you should compare Keeping's Organization Plan ($17/user/month) with Front's Growth Plan ($59/user/month). With Front, you are required to pay up front for an entire year, with a minimum of 5 users. That's $3,500 a year just to get started.

On average, Keeping is about 70% less expensive than Front. And you still get all of the critical features to manage a shared mailbox.

For a 5 person team, you can expect to save nearly $2,800/year with Keeping.
