What do you like best about Hive?

It is a perfect tool to track tasks to perform a project management effectively. It allows you to visualize in detail the processes and progress in the tasks to be performed and even offers the ability to share project updates with all coworkers. It is simple to use, complete interface and with many customization tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

It was a bit complicated to adapt to Hive, it has functions that at work we did not understand at all. It was necessary a learning process and preparation to manage the configuration and personalization. However, we managed to adapt to its use and its constant updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hive:

I recommend Hive because it is a tool that, without a doubt, allows a great collaboration between co-workers, providing the ability to monitor the work and the due progress of the commercial tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Thanks to Hive we are more united at work, we find an indispensable help in the due fulfillment of tasks and business projects, monitoring every step that we must take. It manages all our pending work and allows us to make great strides, saving time and increasing effeciency in everything we do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hive?

I like it because it is very practical when discussing modifications in projects, it allows me to move finished tasks and those that are not yet finished from one card to another, it is very collaborative and allows us to follow up on projects in real time, as well it allows other engineers that we have out of the country, participate collaboratively by accessing hive and see the progress of projects that are loaded, even each user can choose their view, allows to see tasks and sub tasks in a way, and a view of calendar, in case you are looking for projects for their dates to deliver, so much so that we have tried and since I did, our tasks and projects really are more clear and simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

When I download the mobile version, when I enter my username and password, it does not show me any information, but until I have made several attempts, and some times it has happened to me that some tasks already loaded disappear, but I write to the support, and it is wonderful , because they have solved me at the moment and I have felt comfortable with their attention. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hive:

It is a fairly complete software, which deserves its recommendation 100%, all your tasks and projects in one place, has some details of login, but nobody is perfect, this software is one of the best in the market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

My team of engineers is more practical and since we started using beehives we are more creative, with reference to organize ourselves in some tasks and even some projects, we can all collaborate at the same time, we keep more communicated and it is impressive that reaching this level was so simple, and Hive has taken care of all that, has greatly benefited the planning in engineering is essential.

What do you like best about Hive?

Easy to set up an endless list of projects with sub-projects and tasks. Easy enough for any team to customize it to your needs. Offers most of the functionality you'd like to see in a project management tool.

Since it's web-based, you don't need IT to get set up and running.

Very affordable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

I wish it offered a functionality to add estimated efforts/hours, so I could easily evaluate how busy we are and if it's possible to fit in another task within a given time frame.

Not a fan of how the "My actions" overview is set up. Sometimes hard to see which task belongs to which project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hive:

Unless you buy into the enterprise level, there is no way to track estimated hours needed to complete a task, which means you never have an overview of your team's bandwidth Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Keeping track of all our projects, tasks and deadlines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hive?

It’s so great in collaborating with a larger team. We use this especially to collaborate with our overseas manufacturer as well as between our in office cross functional teams. It’s a great resource and it could be made a lot better with some interface tweaks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

I think the overall look of Hive is pretty disorganized. It’s a glorified excel document in looks and it seems like they need some heavy duty hands on UX and UI work or to hire better ones if they have them. We have had issues with small buggy things and their app is basically useless this is definitely not a program to be used on the phone - not as is at least. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hive:

I think there are a lot of very powerful team working tools out there and it’d be good to take your time and figure out if hive is what’s right for your teams needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We share project lists and as a result some people want to view them in different ways - on our team that causes problems as hive doesn’t let you personalize your own view. One person changes it while you’re working on it and pooooof it’s gone. It is a great cross collaboration tool and saves me so much digging through emails. I especially personally enjoy when someone asks me for something and I can tell them it’s under the project number on hive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hive?

Hive allows us to sign and manage tasks almost effortlessly and monitor progress through various task layouts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hive?

It has been a little more difficult than we hoped to set up some of the recurring processes we'd like to track through Hive. I'm sure it can be done, but haven't had the time to figure it out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Hive:

Definitely a good solution for smaller businesses. We considered alternatives before settling on Hive. Just because other software has been around longer or has a more established name, doesn't mean it's a better fit. If you're looking for straightforward project management and team collaboration, HIve has that. The price is great for the benefits it offers us. Our team primarily works remotely from each other, and we have been able to stay on task better through Hive. We haven't had any technical issues that couldn't be resolved quickly. Most importantly, it's really easy to learn and use, so we didn't miss a beat when we were getting started with the software. They got it turned on for us quickly and we were using it efficiently within days. They had good customer service and training available, but we've hardly needed it because it is all so intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

As a small law firm, we have to manage multiple client matters along with all of the normal aspects of running a business with limited staff. Hive really helps us silo the different areas as necessary to make sure everything gets done in a timely manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
