What do you like best about Hive?

It's a respectable venture chief. It has a lot of reconciliations including mail, schedule, and time following. The reconciliation with Microsoft Teams is very valuable, which tells and permits you to join planned gatherings. Hive permits our group to redo our work process. It likewise has a few devices and elements that assist us with exclusively coordinating and upgrading our objectives and plans. We particularly love the numerous ways of altering and individualizing how each of us can utilize the framework. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

It's quite sluggish. The application is in some way or another more awful than the web form. This causes it to feel like a downsize when contrasted with arrangements like Asana. I don't realize that I would agree that different arrangements are better regarding highlights, yet they feel much snappier. The means expected to get from a relegated errand to the venture outline are a bit unintuitive. The time following is extremely confounding and requires a few platforms that truly look bad to me. Neglecting to finish one of these means can cause issues for the money division, which will compound if not settled. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Hive is how my organization oversees promoting accounts and allocates undertakings to colleagues. It assists us with all remaining in total agreement yet allows us to utilize the framework in the way that every one of us jumps at the chance to utilize it with our various obligations in general and inclinations. The Hive tackles our concern of having a solitary answer for our venture and errand board. Our group has different needs that Hive has had the option to fulfill in one single arrangement. Other than the board programming, our necessities don't hit each crate. Indeed, hive does. We suggest involving Hive to project the board for organizations of all sizes and quality. Hive can adjust to the idea of the work you do, and it very well may be effectively movable to your work style. Thus, why not get a decent tool that knows the undertaking of board work and will facilitate your life in the long term? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hive?

The flexibility to view different information about all our projects at once, or one project in detail.

The ability for everyone on the team to see the status of projects, coordinate and document, so we can give answers to clients even when the primary project contact isn't available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

Software bugs. I know they are constantly updating and improving, but it's frustrating when functionality changes sometimes day to day. Also, the search feature is a bit odd in what results it decides to return, and by adding or removing a letter, suddenly it decides to kick in and find the project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hive:

Look through the tutorials and click around to see all the different functions. There are some things that aren't immediately obvious, and the summary views can be a bit confusing, but with tweaking and trying out different layouts, you can get really useful summaries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Hive keeps everyone on the team on the same page and lets the boss keep up to date on progress even if she isn't in the office. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hive?

I like Hive to manage our team's projects, as it allows us to collaborate with third parties and share files and tasks.

I can set dates, add attachments, and mark jobs so we can manage them as a team.

I can approve files on the go thanks to the mobile app.

Gantt charts help me plan by letting me see how long our projects will take. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

Few Hive project views are yet available.

Rich text editing is not available in Hive messages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Hive is useful because it allows us to see all the tasks that were done within a given project, which projects share those tasks, and which tasks are behind schedule.

By keeping in mind the due dates of each project, the calendar view option helps us to organize, track and update our tasks.

It's great that the instant messaging option allows us to stay in touch through private conversations or team chats. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you for leaving a review, Rosemarie! We are so glad Hive helps your team stay organized and on task. Cheers!

What do you like best about Hive?

I love how Hive provides an active workspace for my team to collaborate and communicate. I love the concept of "action cards" and "subaction cards" being grouped within a project. I also LOVE how email threads can be "linked" to action cards for reference. We also use the commenting feature as a way to document any additional actions that were taken or progress for the task or for clarifying questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

It's glitchy-- of course, a lot of updates and improvements are still happening and our team actively uses the feature to talk to a Hive representative to troubleshoot. Sometimes we have action cards that have a deadline set but don't show up in "My Actions" because the Assignee was populated through a template that has placeholders (instead of being manually chosen). We've had that issue come up a few times and we know Hive is working through it but it does induce some anxiety-- what if we're missing something? Something we thought we'd accounted for-- a task that we've noted needs to get done, but is stuck deep in the subactions? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hive:

Understand there are glitches to be sorted through and to actively provide feedback if possible! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We're much more efficient with our work because the templates allow us to build in the models we use. It's a form of training to apply a template and review all necessary action items within a phase of the way we manage our client work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Miles of Hive

Thanks for leaving a review, Martina! We appreciate hearing how Hive helps your team, as well as your favorite aspects of the platform. We have noted your recommendations regarding glitches and will continue to work through them. Cheers!

What do you like best about Hive?

I like using Hive as it allows me to choose which task to assign, to whom, and when it should be completed.

We can centralize workflows and combine procedures such as plan formulation, approvals, and automated management through the dashboard.

All of our projects can be controlled and monitored from one place.

I can collaborate on my initiatives with external partners, customers and stakeholders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

Tracking changes and additions is a complex procedure that can take time.

Hive configuration requires experience in the area.

I would like to see Hive making improvements to the mobile app, which is still missing some features.

It might be better to integrate it with other tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

With the help of team members, we can create and organize tasks that include deadlines, attachments, and tags.

I can monitor the progress of my projects and modify deadlines and workloads using kanban-style status screens.

The Gantt chart allows me to schedule the project tasks.

I can automatically assign repetitive jobs using action templates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is a significant learning curve for Hive.

Hive requires a bit more effort to set up than other options.

What do you like best about Hive?

Hive is among one of the most remarkable, top-notch, and quality project management platforms. It offers features like Kanban boards and Gantt charts to keep the track of your projects as well it offers features that are quite exclusive in the project management platforms like communication. Yes, communication is a very complex task on these platforms and hive provides us with that, with ease!. We as a whole team feel comfortable using Hive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

Many users find it quite difficult to use it at first, which is a very common issue that is surely resolvable with time. But, the mobile version of Hive is not as good as its desktop version. We are thankful that it has a mobile version but a more moderate and upgraded version is needed for even better management and results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We recommend using Hive for project management for companies of all sizes and all natures. Hive can adapt to the nature of work you do and it can be easily adjustable to your work style. So, why not get a good platform that knows the project management work and will ease your life in the longer run. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Miles of Hive
