It requires manual effort to clean the space or to maintain it. Although with additional efforts, customisations and plug-ins old and irrelevant files can be removed to clear space and storage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This app has changed the way we do remote work. And the way we communicate in the office. I am always on the road or traveling, and I just love it. I work from wherever I am. And I use Jive to keep me connected to my team. It's pretty great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If you're using it on the phone, with just your wireless connection and not the internet, it's slow to connect. Sometimes the customer side of things doesn't work like it should. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We went live on the Jive platform in 2009 and migrated to Khoros last May. Jive provided a lot more customizations and with it being hosted on-prem it was easier for our devs to make changes. Moving to a SaaS product has been an adjustment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While we liked being able to customize, it was also a distraction. Many space and group owners did things so differently that users often felt a big disconnect when navigating between them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It was a clean UI for all user identity management Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the process to identify any user identity issue or analysis was cumbersome Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They had a great easy to use interface. Phones came provisioned and setup already, and all we had to do was plug them in and we could use them right away. I am not sure how they are now with them being bought out/merged by another company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The cost, like with many cloud VoIP providers, added up very quickly for us. We had to switch to a hosted option which saved us a huge chunk. Other than this, if you're budgeted for it, it's a great option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It could be more good with organizing docs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The fact that you can use it anywhere: a physical phone (purchasing the right LAN adapter) on an iPad or iPhone, and on the web in your computer. Also it offers constant updates that tend to make it better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the Admin Panel shows information about the lines that is not updated or tends to create confusion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
