Collaboration is simple and intuitive. The software is fairly low maintenance and the support has been very helpful. Their search is also one of the best in the industry.

The UI is a little clunky. A lot of times, we aren't sure where a link or document is posted, what "space" it is in. There are a lot of seemingly unnecessary spaces, places, pages, etc. I would prefer a cleaner, simpler design
