Great product - boosts my productivity.

einfach nur sehr gute software, die ich schon seid jahren nutze.

Cannot export/import settings. Self explanatory.

Doesn't save all browser tabs. When I save a group I watch it process everyone one of my open tabs. There's a huge problem that was never communicated: you never told users they cannot touch the computer while it's saving. I had several tabs open and it lost them all. I opened them all again, and clicked Save again and did not touch it, I let it process each tab in each window in the group. Open the saved group, each tab was gone again. This happened in chromium browsers like Chrome/Brave/Vivaldi. Major fail! If not fixed, I'm not renewing, might ask for refund, because that's a core feature, and it doesn't work. I understand it's tough to grab each window guid and then try to "save" it, you might not get totally back to where you were, but at least the same stuff opened. Here actual website tabs were missing. It's an app to save open windows and it failed to do so.

It's a good start, but a lot of updates to be made to be consistent enough for future licenses.

Always a great array of apps to help me align my desktop better. I am a desktop clutterer and this helped me immesly and was very intuitive to use.

Excellent software. Can configure the look of your PC in many ways. Thank you.

Muy lindo software, nada que reclamar

I would have given it 5 stars but like a lot of software developers they have decided to make it a subscription service instead of just purchasing it outright which is just legalized theft

Why should anybody have to keep coughing up money year for year for such an incredibly basic program is beyond me, once you have purchased a licence you own it, not just own it for 365 days, nonsense

I have found Groupy to work extremely well. In fact I have a group of programs which I open with Groupy in their respective tabs and it works great. Saves time opening each program every morning when starting work. And closing them all at end of day. I also have found the colouring of the tabs a valuable feature.
The only negative is that it affect my VBA editor by removing the last-entered space character, which shifts the caret back to being hard up against the previous character. When using the VBE (not too often these days) I have to turn Groupy off.

I had a problem with Stardock Fences and sent an email about it to the support email address.

This was their reply:

I posted my question to their forum and got no reply. So basically if you have a problem with their software, you are on your own. There is no technical support available.

stopped working properly after one of the windows 11 updates. Explorer crashes. Windows freezes. Wallpapers get darker when click on right menu

I like Groupy2 very much. The only thing I kind of find it a bit annoying is when using the browser Vivaldi and I want ot switch to one of its tabs, Groupy will show up. I also would suggest Start11 as an Start menu alternative, if you are not happy with the Windows Start menu.

Great effects! I only wish there were more Dreamscapes that had 1st person starship points of view.

Great tool with some specific programs.
Lack some proper binds :
total custom bind, be able to choose specific window (for example i want to choose window 3, first one, last one and previous one.
Very reactive but can be a bit buggy sometimes

I've found Groupy is a nice solution to a very common problem, and tabs in almost any app definitely simplifies my workflow a lot. Installed it for the first time a few years ago, never went back.

Using Start11, Fences and Groupy. All are extremly helpful and productive and cover missing Windows functions.

A great gadget for staying organized and removing clutter.

I love this app, but find it VERY buggy. Constantly moves and resizes windows when new app instances/tabs are opened -- particularly challenges with Microsoft Outlook. Tabs are often unclickable too requiring me to force-close the app.

Works well, no bugs. Program helps me organize my desktop.
