My Reviews

CardBook

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

CardBook looks to be full of features, anyway it's missing some of the most important and useful, like import contacts from the Thunderbird native addressbook. It does the import the very first time, but if you want to do it again... no way.

Further, the import from file feature is clumsy, confusing and not documented.
You have to rely only on tries and guess what happens.
And no, no copy and paste contacts does't work.

Plus, the sync is buggy, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. And the categories are not synced with Google if you want to keep the ones already existing (you must create new ones and the rename them... guess if you have many...)

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (60.8).  This user has a previous review of this add-on.

Quicktext

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

One of the best TB extensions available. Works great. A great tool for those who use TB at work.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.2). 

CardBook

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Works very well and compliments for being already compatible with TB 78.

As of today it's practically the only working alternative to gContactSync (that is not compatible with TB 78 - hope it will be soon)

I give it 4 stars because it would be perfect if it could handle and sync contact categories with Google (even if we're aware of the problems - Google side)

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (51.7).

Secure Addressing

Rated 2 out of 5 stars

The idea is good, but implementation is irritating. You can set it as you want, in any way, but recipient suggestion only works if you have very few similar addresses. In many cases it doesn't work so you have to write the entire address manually or picking it from the address book. And address suggestion is very important to get things done quickly.

Lightning Invitation Notifier | LIN

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

The addon works well with no problem and fill the annoying gap of Thunderbird thas hasn't a decent invitation notification

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.1). 

Toolbar Buttons

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

A very good buttons pack. Anyway there are two things missing that I think everyone would love:

• A search field and/or a sorting feature. There are so many buttons that is very difficult to find the one you're looking for

• A button for toggling private browsing. There is an other extension for this, of course (that currently is not compatible with FF4), but why not to add this button in this pack? This is a very annoying lack of FF that should be fixed

My 2 cents for these improvements

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.0.1-signed.1-signed). 

Update Notifier

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Please update for FF 3.6!

Provider for Google Calendar

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

OK, since any answer comes from the dev I give my contribution for this question.
I've made extensive tests using both native remote calendar subscription and this extension.
The main difference (but not the only) I found, and it's fundamental, is that native subscription access the Google Calendar in read only mode, while the extension gives full write access.
It seems to works quite well

---------
As in title. Why would we have to prefer this addon instead of subscribing natively remote calendar with Lightning?
I think a clarification would be welcome
