Having more than one email account is nothing uncommon nowadays. Unfortunately, modern web browsers don't have much to offer when it comes to switching from one account to another, so you'd have to rely on extensions. A better solution is to get an email client, but not just any client. If you are looking for something efficient and reliable, then you should definitely have a look at Shift. It gives you the possibility of staying logged in multiple mailboxes simultaneously and it lets you enjoy everything their respective services have to offer.

The software comes in free and paid editions and it is available for all major operating systems. It comes in a small package and it can be installed in no time. The hardware requirements are modest and there is no need to install any prerequisite tools or services. However, you may need to add Shift to your antivirus program's exceptions list.

When launched for the first time, Shift will ask you to set up your first mailbox, which will also be your main account. The software lets you set up Gmail, Inbox, Outlook and Office 365 accounts, without any kind of difficulties. All you have to do is provide your login credentials and allow the application to connect to your account. Additionally, you can name this connection and assign a color, to differentiate it better.

Once you are connected to a mailbox, the software will display it just like on your web browser. You will find the exact same options, in the same locations, so you won't have to learn a new layout. New accounts can be added at any time, just like the main account. All accounts are displayed on the left edge of the interface and you only need to click one to switch to it.

Another advantage is the fact that Shift gives you access to all services that come with a particular mailbox. For example, if you connect to a Gmail account, you will also be able to access Google Calendar and Google Drive, on the same interface. Furthermore, the software lets you install all sorts of apps, for cloud storage, social media and much more.

When it comes to managing one or more mailboxes, Shift is far more efficient and comfortable than any traditional email client.

Pros

You can manage multiple mailboxes at the same time. The software let you connect to your accounts quickly and easily. Also, it provides support for various extensions.

Cons

Shift supports mailboxes from only four services.
