"Hive Streamlines Your Workflow"
What do you like best about Hive?

Here’s what I like best about Hive:

Flexible Project Views: The ability to instantly switch between Kanban, Gantt, and other views is a game-changer for different team preferences.

Powerful Integrations: It connects with virtually all the tools your team already uses, from Slack to Salesforce.

Robust Analytics: The dashboards and reporting tools give you deep insights into team performance and project progress.

Native Communication Tools: You don't have to leave the platform to send messages, share files, or get approvals, which keeps everything organized.

Customizable Workflows: The automation features can be tailored to your team’s specific processes, saving a ton of manual work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

Here's What I like the least about Hive:

Initial Learning Curve: While powerful, its extensive feature set can be a bit overwhelming for new users or smaller teams trying to grasp all functionalities at once.

Potential for Over-Configuration: With so many options, it's easy for teams to get lost in setup and customization rather than focusing on actual work, if not managed carefully.

Hive can be slow to process tasks at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Keeps Projects Organized and Teams in Sync Without the Chaos"
What do you like best about Hive?

What I like most about Hive is how it manages to keep project tracking simple yet powerful. The layout is clean, the navigation feels natural, and switching between Gantt, Kanban, and calendar views helps me visualize projects from different angles without losing context.

I use Hive mainly for sprint planning and task allocation across multiple projects. Creating tasks, assigning owners, setting dependencies, and tracking progress are all incredibly smooth. The integrations with tools like Slack, GitHub, and Google Drive also make a huge difference — everything stays connected, so I don’t have to jump between apps.

I also appreciate Hive Analytics — it gives quick insights into productivity trends and workload balance, which helps us plan sprints more efficiently. For developers and team leads, it’s the right balance of structure and flexibility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

Hive is great overall, but there are a few areas that could improve. Sometimes, when managing multiple large projects, the interface can feel a little heavy — it takes a few extra seconds to load dashboards with many active tasks. I also wish the mobile app mirrored the desktop experience a bit more closely, especially for editing subtasks or adjusting timelines on the go.

Customization could be slightly deeper too — things like automations or recurring task templates take a few extra steps to set up compared to tools like ClickUp. That said, the platform is solid, stable, and their support team is very responsive whenever something needs tweaking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Michaela Rollings of Hive

We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that Hive has made your project management process more structured and transparent. Your feedback on customization and recurring task templates is incredibly valuable, and we'll take it to our tech team for future improvements!

"Flexible Task Management with Room for Improvement"
What do you like best about Hive?

I love using Hive because of the templates, which provide incredible flexibility. I can apply a template to a task and adjust it based on the timeframe, adding or removing tasks as needed. This feature simplifies managing timelines by allowing me to adjust or collapse proofing rounds and tie dependent tasks together smoothly. I'm a huge fan of this template tool and its ability to duplicate workflow seamlessly. Additionally, the proofing tool in Hive is excellent. I spend considerable time using it and find it beneficial that I can proof everything in one go. The ability to notify external reviewers efficiently in a single step is something I truly appreciate. Occasionally, there might be minor glitches, but largely, the tools work well within the consolidated environment. The initial setup of Hive was very easy, aided by a helpful account representative who provided insightful recommendations, which significantly improved our experience. The guidance to create templates from frequently performed tasks proved invaluable, allowing us to refine and audit our workflows appropriately. Overall, I am very satisfied with Hive and would recommend it highly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

I struggle with Hive when managing team members who leave or change roles because there's no efficient way to transition their tasks to others. This requires going through manually, task by task, which is highly inefficient. Having a master project owner feature would help manage and reassign tasks more seamlessly. Additionally, setting up an archive function when project is set up would be beneficial (like in 3 months of project completion this task would automatically archive itself.) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Miles of Hive

Thank you for your review! We're happy to hear that you are satisfied with Hive and find the templates and proofing tools beneficial. We appreciate your feedback on the challenges you face in role transition and will work on enhancing the task transition process and implementing an archive function for projects. Cheers!

"Efficient QA Management with Hive, Though Can Lag on Large Projects"
What do you like best about Hive?

I love how easy it is to organize and track QA tasks in Hive. The ability to switch between Kanban and Table views helps me visualize progress during testing cycles. The automation and action templates save a lot of repetitive setup time. Plus, having real-time project tracking and updates keeps our QA and dev teams perfectly in sync. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

Hive works great overall, but it sometimes feels a bit heavy when you’re managing large-scale QA cycles or regression sheets. The loading speed can slow down with multiple active projects, and notifications can get cluttered if you’re part of several workspaces. A more streamlined filter or notification system would make life much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Miles of Hive

Thank you for sharing your positive experience with organizing and tracking QA tasks. We're happy to hear that Hive has been beneficial in keeping your QA and dev teams in sync! We value your feedback about the performance on large-scale projects and notifications, and we'll use this to continue enhancing the platform.
