## Key features

- **Spaces for each project:** Keep the tabs, docs and links for a project together and see only the current space's tabs, with the rest a click away.
- **Autosave and backups:** Tabs in a space are saved automatically and can be restored after a crash; Pro keeps 90 days of session backups.
- **Sync and tab suspension:** Spaces sync between computers, and idle tabs can be suspended to reduce browser memory use.
- **Universal search:** A search shortcut finds tabs and spaces from anywhere in the browser, and the search bar can sit on the new tab page.
- **Doc templates and automation:** Space and document templates can create Google Docs, Sheets and Slides and populate folders for a new project.
- **Team spaces:** Shared spaces, viewer and editor sharing, and space presence let teammates work from the same set of resources.

## Good for

- People who work on several projects and keep many tabs open
- Teams that centralize project links, Google Drive folders and tasks
- Heavy Chrome, Edge or Firefox users who want session restore

## Worth knowing

- The pricing page shows entry prices as 'starting at' without stating whether they are monthly or annual billing.
- A help article's example shows the Team plan at $12 per user per month on monthly billing.
- Free accounts are limited in spaces and sections; free accounts are for individuals only.
- The Team plan is for up to 25 users; larger groups need Enterprise.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Your call.** A read-later list at its plainest is saved links with tags. You could make the core of Workona for yourself: bookmarks, templates and tasks. What you would give up is listed below. Whether that is worth the price is your call. It costs $84 a year.

- You could make: Bookmarks, templates and tasks: an app builder makes these well.
- You could make: It runs in a browser, which is where something home-made would run too.
- You could not: Several people working in it at the same moment.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Google Drive, Slack and Asana among them.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
