Christian (ID: 000000d65f24768e) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/15/2019 I work in a very large org with over a decade worth of code and data. This plugin makes it extremely easy to find where fields are used in the code as well as email templates. Not only does it help find specific fields, but you can also search for phrases and sentences. I can't tell you how much time I've spent trying to find a specific email template with limited information. With this plugin, all I need is the subject or any part of the body to find what I'm looking for. I also find the way in which this plugin displays the API name better than any other I've tried. Must have!
