Ferdium offers a desktop environment for web services. You add services and switch between their web interfaces via a sidebar. That can be more clear than many separate browser tabs, especially if you use multiple accounts.

Ferdium is not the chat or mail system itself. The functions, privacy and subscriptions remain from the services you add. If a service changes its web interface, integration may require temporary attention.

A collection app for messages does not replace the underlying services. Check which networks are supported, how your accounts are linked and where notifications and sessions are stored. Especially with encrypted services, the way of linking can make up for your choice.

Who is it for?

You use a lot of web services and want to organize them in one separate window.

Getting started

Install Ferdium and add your services one by one. Check per service login, notifications and any audio or video access.

Privacy

Each added service processes data in accordance with its own conditions. Ferdium does not automatically change the encryption or privacy of that service.

Good to know

Support depends on the web interface and service integration. Paid functions of external services continue to be paid.

Please note

Check notifications and sessions per shift. A problem with a web service is not always an error in Ferdium.

Advantages

  • Many web services in one window Separate sessions for accounts Clear Sidebar

Things to consider

  • Depending on external web interfaces No own replacement of the services Multiple web apps can use a lot of memory

Our verdict

Ferdium is especially useful when you switch daily between a lot of web services. A separate window with fixed service buttons can rest in your regular browser. You do not need to change the accounts or collaboration environment of others.

Do not expect any technical aggregation of all services. Messages, subscriptions and privacy remain regulated by provider. Also test whether notifications and video functions work as expected. For two occasionally used websites, the additional app may be unnecessary. For a fixed set of daily services, the organisation can provide sufficient advantage to use Ferdium.
