What do you like best about Hive.co?

I like how easy everything is to use. After the initial set up, the usability of this platform is SOO easy! I like that I can build custom templates and use ones that I previously customized. I appreciate that there are several ways to upload contacts and the dashboard is easy to navigate too! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive.co?

The only thing that I disliked was during set up. There were parts of the platform setup that I am not familiar with and instead of having a rep set it up for me, I was directed to FAQ style bullet points. I basically had to teach myself the answers to my problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hive.co:

If you are interested in the KPI type reporting and seeing quick revenue return, then Hive is for you. If you like to customize each email, then Hive is for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I am solving a deliverability issue by using Hive. My previous provider had so many limitations and the success rate of an email was way too low. I handle VIP emailing and when they werent getting their emails, it was causing major issues. My old provider had very little room for customizations too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hive.co?

We've been working with Hive for many years, our team loves the platform. Hive's automated engagement segments are great, they make it easier to organize our lists. They've boosted our open rates since we switched some of our clients. The setup is super fast as well. Highly recommended for anyone looking to automate their email strategy. Also 10/10 for the timely and personal support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I like how like many other email software, you can create automations and tells you the campaign deliverability. The biggest advantage is that it integrated with Shopify and was able to show us what campaigns would deliver better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive.co?

I did not like that it didn't have API access like Sendgrid does to be able to monitor/send emails through an API. Otherwise the platform is very competitive with other marketing platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Automating emails and understanding reports were definitely huge benfits that we've realized from using Hive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hive.co?

Onboarding to a new email platform is always a daunting task ~ but I have to say the HIVE has been super hands-on and supportive with all of my company's needs! My rep has been reliable, timely and always comes back with either a solution or next steps to get towards resolving any outstanding issues.

Additionally, their team has also provided us valuable tools and resources to make the most of all of the features within the platform. Automated journeys have been exciting to experiment with, and HIVE has been great about providing us with a floor of understanding to start with. We look to make the most of them in the coming months/years! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive.co?

Minimal to no bad experiences so far! If there was anything that would keep HIVE being a 10/10, it would be the template customization. It's good and this may be nitpicky, but it's not the easiest to work with when building new emails/templates. Does it get the job done though? Absolutely and then some. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The auto-engagement buckets have helped us optimize our email lists. We have observed improved open-rates, click-through rates, etc.

Our direct integration with our ticketing platform (we are a music venue) is seamless, making both dynamic and static audience creation easier and more straight forward than ever.

Automation possibilities via journeys are a goldmine. Lots of possibilities we have yet to untap, but will continue to explore! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hive.co?

I like the ease of use, the dashboard is very intuitive and I like that it has good search abilities. It's great that you can use it for email, events and CRM in the same platform. The event feature is great for sending out marketing about concerts and other things that occur regularly for some businesses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive.co?

As with any tech there are learning curves to finding all the features and working the same way as your team within the platform, but they have a great customer service team to help get you onboarded and understand this hurdle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hive.co:

Give it a try, i think it is helpful for a variety of businesses and helps to streamline the communication processes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Consolidating email communications with events. I have realized it makes sense to have one platform that everyone uses vs. having multiple different places to try and keep track of everything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
