Sidekick is awesome! I've been using it since an early beta and I really like it! Keep up the good work!
Yegor Korobeynikov
@nico thanks for the feedback! As someone working in VC, what's your main use case, and what's the biggest value you get from Sidekick?
Nico Lumma
@krbnkv well, Sidekick is fast and doesn't slow down my mac, that's a good start, I think :) Also I like to have all my apps accessible via the sidebar and I like to have different workspaces for different projects I'm working on.
Yegor Korobeynikov
@nico that's so great to hear! Did you already try the Workspaces feature?
Thomas Hilgert
My one and only browser used on Windows. I strictly recommend this browser for everyone who is working with the internet on a professional basis. Download, watch and learn :-)

@theelkbo thanks a lot for your feedback! What is the main value Sidekick brings to you?

@krbnkv The sidebar save me at least one h per day. I am a web browser tab closer. I don't know why but I hate to have more than 4 open tabs. It disturbs my focus and most of the time I am searching for the right tab. In the sidebar are my 10 most used websites, and there is no close button tab on this ;-). I have organized my work using Tabs for the current topic I am working on. So, if I am finished, I can close all tabs and have still open my Mail und Timesheets (sidebar). As well as workplace I can switch from home 2 work in no time.

Congrats guys on the launch! It looks interesting. Just a quick question: the search bar can work across files in different apps right? For example: I search for the keyword but my Asana and Notion have the same terms. Will it suggest both?
Yegor Korobeynikov
hey @huy_doan_quang, thanks for this question. Yes, both apps will appear in search results. Our search engine uses artificial intelligence to range results based on relevance. As it learns, the next time the search results will be even more relevant

Congrats on what looks to be another very successful launch. I've been using Sidekick since it first launched on PH 2 years ago. It reduces so many of the little inefficiencies that chip away at your time and mental energy over the course of a work day. I can't imagine using anything else at this point.
Yegor Korobeynikov
thanks a ton, @alexgzed! Could you list a few inefficiencies that Sidekick helped you eliminate?
Alex Zed
Pleasure @krbnkv! Switching to key web apps is a big one. In most browsers the key apps I use can get lost amongst the tab clutter, it may only take a second or two more each time, but when you're doing this hundreds of times a day, it grates. The sidebar solves this completely for me. Another big one is switching between different google accounts - I have multiple personal and work accounts and switching between them is a drag of a process. With Sidekick I have each one as a separate app, so it only takes one click to switch between them - saves a ton of time. Keep up the good work!

It's a great product and I like very much the App features and the Sessions, allowing me to separate the different kind of work I've to do...Brilliant! P.S. Also with a very supportive Help Desk!
Yegor Korobeynikov
thanks a lot, @franco_mastrorilli! When it comes to work projects, do you mostly separate them from your personal ones, or do you combine them?
Franco Mastrorilli
@krbnkv I use Sessions for each different customer I'm working with and, naturally for my personal sites 😉
Yegor Korobeynikov
@franco_mastrorilli Have you had a chance to try out our new Workspaces feature? Your use case seems to be a good fit!
Franco Mastrorilli
@krbnkv Not yet, would it be part of V2.0, correct? When could I download it?
Yegor Korobeynikov
@franco_mastrorilli it's already available and yes, it's part of the new update
Catherine Norris
Love this! I'm the queen of tab clutter (I've got at least 20 open at any given point 🥴)
Yegor Korobeynikov
@catherine_norris @catherine_norris my largest session so far has been 80 tabs, and Sidekick's performance continues to amaze me :)

Congratulations @dmitry_pushkarev, and the rest of the team! Sidekick is my favourite browser and has helped me tremendously in my work as a designer especially with regards to staying organized and managing projects. I talk about it at every opportunity, and I can't wait to use the new and improved Sidekick. Thank you!
Yegor Korobeynikov
@dejistudio, thank you so much for your kind feedback! Would you mind telling me how Sidekick has helped you? We're always curious about the value we bring!
Ayodeji Balogun
@krbnkv like I said, Sidekick helps me stay organized with features such as sessions and multiple logins. Those are the two features I enjoy and use the most on a daily basis.

I never take time to write reviews, but for Sidekick I have to!! Honestly one of my most used apps I've implemented in the last 2 years besides Notion haha. Absolutely highly recommend Sidekick! I've got my whole team to switch over from their browsers to sidekick haha.
Yegor Korobeynikov
@julian_alexander3 that's so great to hear! How did the transition go on a team level? Is working in Sidekick as a team beneficial to you?
