What do you like best about Hive?

The best things about working with hive are the organizational part, the possibility to schedule working hours and, without a doubt, the platform's intuitiveness to open, schedule, organize and optimize your work time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

The only thing I believe needs more improvements are the application for pc and mobile. they are kinda hard to read and do some urgent things, and beside that, consumes a lot of ram from the hardware. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hive:

Using Hive is the most practical and efficient way to keep your work with quality and within your field of control. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hive solving and how is that benefiting you?

Most of the work demands that I can solve with hive are those that I need access from more people on my team. With hive it's easy and simple to schedule and pass work demands to other people and charge them if they're late or need to be changed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Hive?

I like that it has what it takes to put instructions for the whole team. There are no buttons or options that are confusing or that they do not deal with like other management platforms like this one Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

Sometimes it falls and does not allow anything to be done, perhaps it is the servers, and when that happens, it is chaos!! It seems to me that the improvements could be totally in the stability of the platform since all the tools and functions are helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hive:

In general, it is an excellent tool. It perfectly fulfills its function and has tools and options that are very easy to use and understand. The only problem that I have experienced is that sometimes it falls, it does not load the information, and consequently, it makes it difficult to move forward and have visibility about the daily activities of each user and the entire team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hive solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps me organize my day and prioritize what I have to do during the day, in addition to maintaining communication with my team quickly. Much better than doing it via email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Miles of Hive

Thank you so much for the review, Juan Carlos! We are thrilled to hear how Hive helps your team. We have noted the issue with the server falling. Our project managers are quick to fix these issues!

What do you like best about Hive?

I explored various task management tools, trying out several before finding Hive Management. The easy navigation makes it a breeze to work with everyone, and inviting them to collaborate is just wonderful! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

With so much stacked up, managing everything and keeping track of it can be challenging. However, I discovered that the dashboard feature can help with this issue, although it is now part of the paid version. :( Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hive solving and how is that benefiting you?

Hive has helped me manage my tasks, by reminding me of my overdue tasks by notifications. I have pinned Hive whenever I opened my browser to check all the tasks for that day, now I have installed Hive to get a better performance! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Miles of Hive

We're thrilled to hear that Hive has made your task management super easy! Thanks for giving us a review.

What do you like best about Hive?

I have been a project manager for over 13 years and Hive is truly the best project management system out there, period. I have evaluated over 20 systems throughout my career, and nothing comes close to Hive. I love it's flexibility and intuitive nature, AND it's clean, modern design. I appreciate Hive because I am able to adapt each project based on the needs of the project team. I have never seen a system be so flexible. It can operate like Jira, with flexibility.

I don't think I could ever use another project management system after using Hive because there are intuitive features that I now come to rely on. There's simple things such as yellowing out dates on the calendar for holidays, and then there are major BRILLIANT features like the integration with Salesforce and automation.

Just a note on the integration with Salesforce, the way it is designed and is fantastic because you can seemlessly integration with Salesforce yourself. I do not need to bring an engineer to build something custom.

The team at Hive are always 20 steps ahead. They are frequently leasing new updates and building the system and every time there's a new release, it's like Christmas morning. The cool thing about the way they handle their releases is that I can review them on my own time. If I am swamped with a project, I can go back and read the release notes when I have a minute. Hive is also extremely thoughtful about HOW the releases are done. My system has never been interrupted because of one of their deployments, and their releases are done in such a way where I can choose to use them or not. So if my team won't use a feature or isn't ready for it, it doesn't impact our work, but is there should we ever try to use it.

I also want to champion the Hive staff specifically. They all are INCREDIBLE. The onboarding, account team, technical support, etc., Everyone is so friendly, professional, and on point. Hive is the gold standard for vendor partnerships, and again, this is another reason why I'd never be able to stop using Hive, I've gotten accustomed to such high quality and THOUGHTFUL support. The team at Hive are excellent thought partners and I can come to them any time with a question or idea and they partner with me to work through it.

It's difficult to simply state why I love Hive, so the above is just a snapshot. This system is MASSIVE, but not in an overwhelming way. I always like to say, you can choose your adventure with Hive, and it's so true. My colleagues and partners across the org are able to use Hive in a way that meets their individual needs, and yet, we are all in a project management system that allows us to work together, even if our individual work flows differ a bit. THAT is a major win. No other system can do that, and that is one of the biggest things that sets Hive apart from the rest of the crowd. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

Honestly, it's a perfect system. I am not bias, but I can't actually think of something I dislike about Hive. They have an amazing setup that allows me and other users to post questions and recommendations, and since starting with Hive (almost 3 years ago) I have seem a number of my feature requests implemented. What more can I ask from a partner? The systems not buggy, the Hive team communicates if there are down times or bugs (which is RARE and my teams workflow has NEVER been impacted by this), so I honestly can't pick out something to dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hive solving and how is that benefiting you?

Hive gave us a tool to manage our projects, workflow/operations, and resourcing. We previously were required to use Microsoft Planner and our entire workflow and project management life was built around workarounds and we never have a clear picture into the state of things. Hive saves us so much time, effort, and energy. Our quality of life has also increased because we are communicating and collaborating better. It's amazing to see colleagues who consider themselves "not tech savvy" going into Hive and finding things for themselves, creating their own projects, and working independently. Hive arms the users with the ability to work independently, they no longer need to come to me to ask basic questions. But again, this is just scratching the surface of how Hive solved problems from us and how we benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Miles of Hive

Thank you so much, Jeanne. We are grateful for your kind words and are pleased to hear that Hive has been able to provide you with the features and support you need to effectively manage your projects. Thank you for being such an integral part of our Hive community!

What do you like best about Hive?

I love it because the platform is very visual and supports creating dashboards that you can customize to fit your project needs. I have several projects for different clients and Hive makes it easy to track all of them separately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

I don't really like that it moves horizontally, so it can feel like an endless scroll to get where you want to go. And sometimes managing multiple boards and themes is unwieldy and switching between boards is a pain. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hive solving and how is that benefiting you?

This tool is easy to use with cards and lists that are easy to fill, drag and drop, no deep knowledge is needed because it is very intuitive. It also offers me the possibility to create different boards for different projects and departments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Miles of Hive

We're glad to hear that you find Hive's visual platform and customizable dashboards helpful for managing multiple projects. We appreciate your feedback about the horizontal movement and managing multiple boards, and we'll take it into consideration for future improvements.

What do you like best about Hive?

I like that it allows multiple users to work on the same project, it has the ability to segregate different tasks within a project. It's a solid project management tool, I love the way they use boards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Notification features could be better oranized, it can be a bit overhelming if you are using it for the first time. The platform presented me with some challenges when trying to log in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hive solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps me keep my daily work very organized, allowing me to share it with other project members. It has a simple system that allows me to have robust communication, and allows me to create a virtual list of items that can be controlled. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Miles of Hive

We're glad to hear that you find Hive useful for project and task management, especially the ability to collaborate with multiple users and segregate tasks within a project.

What do you like best about Hive?

Hive has multiple tools that help us develop our "all-in-one" projects, the visual Gantt format, the assignment of tasks to those responsible, and the way Hive brings all these parts together in the same window. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

What I don't like about Hive, probably the communication with other users, emphasizing that their specialty is not communication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hive solving and how is that benefiting you?

The administration and management of the projects we develop internally, as its format is user-friendly, which helps us understand our projects, progress, and the evidence we upload to the application without the need to resort to the old spreadsheets that were used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Miles of Hive
