What do you like best about Hive?

It's an awesome feature. You can change the format as indicated by your requirements and cooperation with different individuals from the venture is very straightforward. The utilization of layouts is additionally very supportive to copy projects with the least changes in dates and individuals. I enthusiastically prescribe it to anybody dealing with different activities which need the coordinated effort of different assets while refreshing the status. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

There is as of now no chance of refreshing the advancement level of a particular undertaking as a feature of the task. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I love the integrations with email, calendar, and Zoom, so I can seamlessly manage emails, tasks, and video conferences. Emails can be turned into tasks with one click. I can click on a calendar appointment and open Zoom within Hive, and take notes to either save to the task or share with my clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

There have been a couple of bugs with integrations -- for example, Gmail stopped syncing when Google made an update. But customer service has been great about addressing issues, and following up with a resolution.

One improvement I'd like to see is to include CRM features (name, address, email, phone numbers for contacts) within Hive or as an integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hive:

Try the 14-day free trial. You'll love it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Managing my inbox -- If I don't have time to address an email immediately, I can create a task and schedule it for follow-up in the future, then archive the email. The email content stays with the task, but the email is out of my inbox. Less inbox clutter, less buried and forgotten emails. Also, emails can be linked to tasks, so less time is spent hunting for that email that explains what I need to do.

Managing my workload -- If I have 50 things on my to-do list, it's overwhelming and I don't know where to start. Using the calendar view, I can divvy up tasks to different days. So when I start each day, I know what I need to complete today, without being distracted by the other 45 things on the list. I'll get to that tomorrow!

Managing notes -- I can keep all notes regarding a task or project within Hive, everything in one place.

All in all, it has helped me be much better organized and more efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Addison Goff of Hive

Thank you for leaving a great review, Rita! I'm happy to hear you enjoy using Hive, especially the Notes tool. It's one of my favorite features too, and we've worked hard to continue building it over the past year.

What do you like best about Hive?

I really like that HIVE is very easy to use. The product really helps to keep me oragnized between my different projects. Hive also helps me to collaborate with my peers in a timely manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

I dislike that I have to delete dates of completed tasks if I do not want to see that date in my to-do list. Other than that, I do not really have any other negatives on this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hive:

Consider the amount of projects that your team is juggling and the amount of collaboration your team needs. If you assess those as high- this product is for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I am solving problems with disorganization and confusion between the team working on certain projects. I am able to be more productive because I am able to do a quick view of what I need to do and work on that without having to search my calendar and emails for what is next. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Miles of Hive

Thanks for the feedback, Laurie! We appreciate you taking the time to give us a review and share how Hive helps your team. We are so glad Hive allows you to be more productive and organized. Cheers!

What do you like best about Hive?

The super user-friendliness. Be it a start-up or not or solo/small team/big team - I manage my projects, never lose sight and can super client-centric as

I aim to be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

I DO NOT dislike anything; rather, I just wish for a personalised page for each Client. Imagine having a project/Client project page in the brand colours which Client would experience when logging on for approvals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Time Management and workflow. All is so smooth with Hive. No more using thousand of different email threads to share work with Client for approval or even for internal when executing projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Miles of Hive

Thank you for the great review, Lebo! We're so glad Hive helps your team stay organized and prioritize clients while minimizing emails. Cheers!

What do you like best about Hive?

I love the easy-to-use setup and on top of that, establishing any particular workflow is the easiest I have seen. The moment I was able to input all of our necessary upcoming projects and tools through the preliminary steps and tutorials, it was easy for me to pick up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

Nothing as far as I am concerned has really discomforted me so far. Once I figured out how to use it, the rest was self-explanatory. I did a decent amount of research before determining which Project Management tool would allow me the most versatility while at the same time a simple setup. Hive has successfully done that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hive:

I would advise that the first thing one should do once they start with Hive is to utilize the community forums to begin. There, you will have most of your preliminary questions and concerns answered so that you quickly set yourself up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We are solving an issue we had of not having somewhere to keep track of any of our upcoming or current projects. We also had issues regarding delegating tasks. In previous times it was not only difficult for us to to specific individuals Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Miles of Hive

Thanks for the kind review, David! It's awesome to hear how Hive has helped your team stay on top of tasks. We appreciate you and your team being apart of the Hive community!

What do you like best about Hive?

Hive makes it quite to easy to manage your ongoing projects and staying on top of your deadlines by creating different sub tasks within each tasks. Simply adding a comment to the task makes it easier for your team/ manager to track the progress without the need for constant follow ups. The optionality to switch between different layouts such as Kanban board view (status/ team/ table) makes it easier to view for quick status check. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

It tends to take up a lot of RAM space when I use it - which is why I can't have this running in the background all the time. If you're marked on an assignee on a task - you get a notification for every minor change/ update on that task.

Also, if you have a multiple projects each with an independent start/end date - and you have delay on one project - there is no option to move all the project deadlines in one go - each one needs to be edited and moved individually which can be quite irritating at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We use Hive as our primary workflow management tools (for the client account I'm currently working with) - it helps us track ongoing projects for all the members of the team with real time updates on the progress. It becomes quite efficient to track and manage deadlines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Miles of Hive

Thanks for the review, Anirudh! We are so happy to hear that Hive helps your team stay on task and manage project deadlines. Cheers!

What do you like best about Hive?

I genuinely like that HIVE is extremely simple to utilize. The second I had the option to include our important forthcoming tasks as a whole and devices through the primer advances and instructional exercises, it was simple for me to get. The fact that I've stayed with makes I've endeavored so many applications and Hive the first. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

Honestly, there isn't a lot I detest regarding this item. Hive has an incredible onboarding program that obviously traces the method for utilizing it. I went through every one of the means, and it gave me motivation for how to help my organization's onboarding program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I have dealt with my work and everyday assignment and coordinated effort with clients effectively. It is accessible on portable, so I can deal with my errand whenever from any place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hive?

Hive allowed us to take a cumbersome email process for sharing work across departments and turn it into an organized, visible process that holds each of us accountable. It's easily searchable and sortable, and Hive has worked with us to create a number of customizations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

It's taken a while to get up to speed on the app, not because it's difficult or poorly thought out, it's just different from what I've used in the past. It's been helpful to have someone specialize in it and be available for training other people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hive:

Select a good, patient administrator. Some people will push back just because it's new. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Our previous process for submitting work to be done, tracking that work, asking questions back and forth, and sharing the results was all done through email. For an individual contributor, the email wasn't overwhelming, but as someone who needs an organizational view, it could easily turn into hundreds of emails a day. Hive puts it all in one place so we have a reliable record of what was requested, when, and what was done with it. Hive sends me consolidated emails on my schedule, and it's easily searchable and sortable so I can dive into specific accounts as needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Miles of Hive

Thank you for the great review! It's awesome to hear Hive helps your team consolidate emails and streamline your workflows. We appreciate your support!
