Gift Batch Entry in Webview - How's it going for you?

Question

I wanted to see how people are feeling about gift batch entry in webview so far? I try and do as much as I can in WV now to get used to it but I can't help but feel the gift batch entry is not just different but significantly less efficient than database view.

Maybe I'm missing something but pledges, tributes, the smaller screen area all lead to me spending so much more time than I ever did in database view even when I was first starting out. I really dislike that it does not flag when a constituent has an open pledge and dislike that I need to apply a column to the whole batch to apply a tribute to one gift.

I'm curious how everyone else is adjusting? Are there things you're doing to make this more fluid and efficient?

While NXT batch is much better than it was with layout and templates, I still do majority of my batching in DBV. Its much faster, less clicking, more intuitive.

I just don't like how everything in NXT is so small and you can't see more than 3-4 lines of Actions or Gifts at once. I'm hoping with the new tab view this will change, but as of now, I still work in DBV primarily.
