Reviews & Comments of Salesforce Colored Favicons chrome extension

As an admin who is constantly going back and forth between Production and sandboxes for testing, this has been game changing. I've only had this extension a week and already I have seen the benefits during a recent project where I'm jumping between doing some testing in a sandbox, back to Production for regular follow up/management. Simple and super brilliant. It wasn't clear at first how to actually make update the designated colors. I didn't see any clear instructions on the store, either (go to the extension, then click Extension Options, click the color of the org, update and make sure you click SAVE).

An excellent extension, simple to use and effective. If the publisher ever considered creating an ISO 27001 compliant version I'd happily pay to use it for professional purposes, as I'm sure would many others! Really great extension, much appreciation to the publisher for filling a gap left by Salesforce not providing an option to customise site favicons.

One of the handiest extensions ever. Obviously data is needed to be exchanged/updated, for it to change the icon locally. it is not accessing any information other than the URL.

I agree with the recent comments. It was great until it recently started requiring permissions to to read/change data.

I had to disable this extension because of the sudden change to allow reading of data for visited websites. Hopefully, the developer will revert this.

I loved this extension, until it started requiring access to read and change my data on all salesforce sites. I have a regulatory obligation to protect that data, so now I'm stuck removing this extension and finding another way to deal with keeping my orgs straight. Please take that permission away again - this has worked so well without it for so long!

I am not able to use this. Options are empty when on a salesforce tab

Hey, I love this! I've used it for years and recommended it to anyone else who's a SFDC admin / dev as an essential tool. I admittedly did come here just to let the dev know that the new URL format SFDC launched broke the extension for sites (X.secure.force.com or X--testing.sandbox.my.salesforce-sites.com)

Best extension for Salesforce users! I recommend it to everyone I work with, as it's definitely a must have!

Helpful for organization purposes. I kinda wish it stored my settings to the cloud so they would sync across machines

This is a no brainer extension to download! If you are operating in sandboxes, trailhead activities, or doing consulting work, THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE MUST. It keeps everything organized and ensures all your tabs are easy to navigate.

This extension is so useful when working in multiple organizations but needs updating. A recent Salesforc change resulting in refreshed sandboxes all have the same {org--sandbox}.sandbox.lightning.force.com meaning that all sandboxes are appearing with the same color. This extension was updated within a week to handle this change. Thanks Steve for keeping this extension useful.

Just PERFECT! Literally it could not be any better. Such a simple and excellent extension. Thank you Steven!

I'm not typically one to write reviews, but this extension is so great I felt I needed to. This has drastically improved my efficiency when working in multiple salesforce instances simultaneously, which is something I do with regularity. Thank you so much for developing this and making it available to the world!

There should be a way to add a url if it doesn't detect automatically, like prod communities

Game changer!

It was working fine for me till the time I removed the last color (duh! I don't know why I did it). Can you help me add it back?

It seems like a great tool, each time I open an instance I receive a different color favicon. I'd love to set specific colors, however when I click on "Options" there is only a "Save" button. I don't see how to add a specific color per environment. Can someone give explicit steps please?

I've used this previously and I loved it, however, now I can't change my prod color to any shade of blue. Anyone else having this issue or know how to fix?

I have loved this extension for a long time but the little enhancement of showing DX for scratch orgs is also great!

i choose Red for my PROD orgs so that i am sure which org i am working on. Really Cool.

This extension is so useful as it allows me to keep track of which tabs are for which org / Sandbox. Knocked a star off though, as occasionally it resets all the colours I've deliberately set back to its defaults.

This extension is really helpful for the developer to avoid unwanted tab opening. I want to know if I can configure it. example: production - keep it default blue color sandbox: grren. In short, control over the colors for different environment?

I regularly have 3 or more SF Orgs open - this app saves so much time in looking for an open tab for a particular Org

This seems like a great idea but it doesn't work. The options page doesn't allow me to add instance and a color, I just see blank columns and a save button.

This saves me from the eye pain of straining to see the URL and allows me to be more accurate/efficient. This is a brilliant tool. Thank you for giving this to the world.

Could you post the source code of the extension to github? So we can contribute and fix bugs

This is very useful

It was working few weeks back but now it is not working.

Excellent and simple extension. I am a Salesforce Administrator and I work in multiple orgs. This app helps to keep me on track.

I work in many different orgs, and even more sandboxes...this tool is a game changer for me and my users!!

Great Job Bro... small feature but great impact.

Best app on the market, hands down. Great job Steve.

I really appreciate the ability to indicate my different salesforce session logins between my orgs.

Does exactly what it says it will do.

Brilliant little extension! Perfect for developers who work on loads of different Salesforce orgs and have multiple tabs open at a time.

You are my life saver ! Could you add more? for example, documentation for apex etc.

I love this extension. It is one that I rely on heavily and therefore in my priority toolkit. As a Salesforce Admin, I will often have at least two if not three (or more) orgs open at once - Production to support our users during the day and either a Sandbox or DE org (sometimes both) and having an easy way to differentiate the orgs at a glance by color is simply brilliant. It is a little glitchy from time to time, coloring the icon incorrectly, but a simple page refresh always resolves that. Thanks for creating this!

So simple, but so useful!

very useful

So helpful!

Thank you for creating such a useful extension! I featured your extension on my blog, on a post on my favorite Chrome Extensions for Salesforce: http://www.forcethe.cloud/2016/07/5-must-have-chrome-extensions-for.html

super handy to have especially since I am frequently working in different orgs and sandboxes

i just cant live without it. If you have more than two orgs and sandboxes, its mandatory.

Seems to only allow a by server identifying colour - great if all the instances you're working on fall on separate servers - sadly mine don't...

I love this extension. It made maneuvering between multiple instances so much easier. Plus, I get to choose my own colors. How cool is that, right?

I work in multiple orgs at the same time, and this is the best Salesforce extension I have come across. Awesome tool!

Extremely helpful! Thanks!

sbabula is the best!! Now I can help differentiate when I am in 4 different orgs, between sandbox, dev org and 3 production orgs! Super helpful!!
