What do you like best about Igloo?

I love Igloo and its effectiveness in helping us promote more efficient communication and collaboration between employees and customers. The adoption process of the software was relatively quick, it is a fluid platform, and its interface is intuitive. It has many features, but the most attractive ones are taken advantage of by our operational executives responsible for inbound and outbound calls. It is an excellent tool for collaboration; it allows us to synchronize and streamline processes; moreover, it has facilitated how we support customers, increasing our effectiveness and quality of service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Igloo?

The number of page layouts is somewhat limited, it would be great if they added more, and the search index has a lot of room for improvement. Still, it's not easy to get files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Igloo is fantastic; it has allowed us to repower the communication, collaboration and support mechanisms within the organization between employees and customers, thus increasing our service's efficiency, resolving issues faster and striving for customer satisfaction. It helps us to synchronize and move forward in our daily processes, significantly streamlining our work and leaving time to cover other essential tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Igloo?

I have found the best part of Igloo is the support of each team member. They want to see you succeed in your digital workplace. Our customer success manager is constantly giving us ideas, stats and encouragement for all the initiatives we are doing as a company. The stronger our relationship grows with Igloo, the more opportunities I personally have had for professional growth and training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Igloo?

Over the past 6 years, we have had quite a few customer success managers. While we fully support the growth and advancement of individuals, it can be difficult to feel seen/heard if you lack the relationship you need for success. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We have a spread-out workforce and having a robust digital workplace as a central "office" has been a game changer for our communication efforts and having a central repository for all finance and HR resources. Team members have been empowered to be self-sufficient before contacting a fellow team member and have 24/7 access to all resources. We no longer use email to share news and updates. Everything is done through our Igloo, which not only frees up email space but it creates a history that team members can access at any time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Igloo?

I would love to start by saying that it is an excellent solution for storing and collaborating on documents that have met everyone's expectations in my organization, from ease of use to data security. It has an intuitive user interface that is easy to navigate and has options to customize our folder and document structures, allowing us greater control over our files. A significant strength of Igloo is the ability to collaborate; it will enable me to securely share documents with my colleagues and even control editing permissions; moreover, the option to comment and discuss papers in real time makes communication and teamwork more efficient. Finally, I would like to emphasize that the platform has state-of-the-art security measures to protect our data and guarantee our privacy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Igloo?

Despite having a free version, most of the advanced features are only available in paid plans; there are also some limitations regarding the number of applications with which it can be integrated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Igloo has been a beneficial resource for the entire organization regarding communication, teamwork and data security. In terms of communication, it allows teams to stay in sync, commenting and discussing their documents in real-time. In terms of collaboration, it will enable us to share our documents quickly and effectively, also allowing us to control editing permissions. As for data security, it is one of the things that Igloo prioritizes the most; the platform has a wide variety of security measures to protect our data and ensure users' privacy.

Igloo is used in my work environment to promote better communication and collaboration between employees and customers and has performed great since implementation. It has been straightforward to set up and install, taking much less time than we estimated; it allows all team members to stay connected and organized within the same virtual environment. I like that it will enable file and folder sharing; it helps work teams stay in sync with daily activities. I also like that it is highly customizable. As for customer service is excellent; they are very attentive and responsive to our requirements when they arise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Logging in is a cumbersome and sometimes annoying process that lacks logic; being such an intuitive program to start with, the customization issue can be a bit more complex for users without CSS experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Igloo has been extremely helpful in improving communication between members of the organization and expanding the mechanisms for collaboration between colleagues on day-to-day activities to ensure goals are achieved.

One of the qualities I like most about Igloo is the ease with which you can create pages and drive knowledge management in the organization.

What do you like best about Igloo?

Igloo helps me to exchange files, schedule meetings and control tasks. The user experience is fantastic; it can establish an internal network where you can communicate, send files and do thousands of things to centralize work. The interface is spotless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Igloo?

The language support is monotonous and only supports the same fundamental languages. The cost is a problem because it is not fixed and goes up every time there is an upgrade. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We post updated information on each new employee and upcoming events. It helped us to communicate and set up a proper IT parameter. It also provides metrics that the rest of the company can use to evaluate employees as they go about their work. It has been essential in achieving the company's decentralization, allowing me to host data in the cloud and encouraging efficient ICT performance within the organization.
