I love session manager! I've used it ever since I started using FireFox. Only time I've ever had an issue it was because of a computer problem. Love that I can see what tabs were in each session if I need to go back.

This is the safest way to keep session now, I like it.
But I think it can still be improved, session details can't be checked in delete window, but loading window can. This always confuses me cause I never name the sessions. So how about combine them(or more windows even all windows) into one window, and allow right click or menu to control everything. This will also make things simple : )
BTW it would be nice if the addon has a better icon.

This is the safest way to save sessions in Firefox ATM, and it is a must for me now.
IMO it can still improve. In delete window, can't see the details, it confuse me cause I never name sessions. but in load window details can be check, so combine them(if possible, more windows or all windows) into one window, and allow right click or menu to delete and other actions. This will make things simple too : )
And if possible, could you change the icon?

Good. This helps me about creating multiple backups of sessions. For addon authors, single backup (created by Firefox itself) seems precarious, because we have to restart Firefox again and again.

Seems to be doing exactly what I need :) Saving individual sessions and actually being able to pick and load them as I want them :) Great Addon!

@freewol - what are you talking about it. It does save automatically every X minutes?!?!
This issue has been the bane of my existence and I was so close to writing an add-on that did exactly this. And what do you know? Other's share my pain and have beaten me to the punch. Awesome. Absolute must have add-ons for FF. That along with web dev toolbar, delicious toolbar and firebug.

No feature to automatically save the session every X minutes (always), and the saving at crash or when quitting the browser does not always correctly, so every thing is lost when it happends.
Too bad it's still the best add-on for this feature, none is perfect.

The session saving features are really helpful, especially when firefox crashes.
It doesn't seem to work on Namoroka 3.6a1 yet, though. I might go back to 3.5 just for this.

This has saved my bacon.
Does what it says on the tin - it saves the sessions (and your sanity) on those occasions that Firefox crashes. [When you leave the room for a few minutes to find M$ did a 'forced reboot'].
When you close a popup after the main window, you lose your tabs, unless you have session manager.
Even lets you go back a few sessions.
Great job. Really. Keep it up!!

I have been using this add-on for a while now for the auto save tab & session saving features, its great if you don't want to lose what tabs you've had open or want to save them or many tab window sessions which you can remove tabs from before you reopen the session at a later date. This is the best of the best. I highly recommend it, and please donate to Morac (also check out his other add-ons) if you use it and find it useful, he has done a great job even though its not that fancy looking it has all the features you'll ever need great job Morac. Highest rating for this add-on, you'll love it.

Great product, coordination tool. I use this for coordinating people and machines First I Coordinate the Machines. I add Session Manager add-on to all machines with Firefox installed on them. Then I follow those Wonderful instruction for customizing the toolbar (View, Toolbars, Customize) and add the Session Manager, Save the current browsing session, Button, onto the toolbar. That finishes Step 1 of coordinating the Machines. Now, the next step, adding a Sessions Folder shortcut, onto the Desktop. Each Machine, needs a Sessions Folder shortcut, on the Desktop. I do this by Running Firefox, opening several tabs, (that have the information that the Marketing or Legal Dept. needs), then click on the Save the current browsing session Button, on the toolbar and Save Session, and give the Session a name to be Saved As.Then Now I click the Save the current browsing session Button again an then click Open Session Folder. The Folder Browser opens now in a new Window. I look carefully at the Address in the Folder Browser's Window, I navigate Up one level, moving the mouse back over the "sessions" folder, I right click on it and Send To, Desktop(create shortcut). I do that for All the Machines and that finishes Step2, Coordinating the Machines.
The hard part now is coordinating the People to be able to share sessions. Now if someone, in the team, is putting together a PowerPoint or legal arguments, with Session Manger, sessions that cover the talking points and/or legal arguments, can easily be shared clicking Save Session. Open Session Folder. Then in the Folder Explorer window that opens, the HTML file of the session that was saved. e-mail or USB memory stick that session to the other Machines Session Folder shortcut. That really helps with allowing the team People and Machines, at least the machines, to all get on the same page and/or pages here.
I really think this deserves Five plus stars. I especially like/love the integrating with the Toolbar instructions, explaining how to customize the Toolbar, with the beautiful graphics and clear directions, they alone are Five Star tutorials. I really even liked figuring out how to better, get the machines coordinated. It Really is a Five Plus Star add-on.
Salutations for making a wonderful product that helps make People, Machines and Things better coordinated.
Cousin It, signing off, Thing's saluting and waving goodbye too.
An extremely exceptional Add-On, Thanks.

QUESTION:
Important!!! Does anyone know the name of a plugin that you add to FF3/Session Manager that giver like a window at the beginning that lists all the sessions and then you can choose the session you want to restore? Its supposed to enhance session manager.
I have searched the entire interweb and the addons I CAN'T FIND IT!!!! Someone please help!!! Thanks.
AWESOME ADDON BTW!!!!
You don't need a plugin to do this as Session MAnager can already do that. Just set it to prompt for a session at startup.
See http://sessionmanager.mozdev.org/options.html#startup
