What do you like best about Unily?

I love that Unily is constantly improving their platform and rolling out new features based on user feedback. There are so many great features, widgets, and integrations with other tools/software. They also have a fantastic learning site, Universe, with guides and resources for pretty much everything you'd need - as well as options to comment, ask follow up questions, and make suggestions for future developments. I find Unily very easy to use once you have had some basic training, and the Unily team is excellent if you run into any questions or need support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Unily?

I wish that Unily had an option to hire contractors who were Unily experts and could help us audit and improve our intranet. Other than that, I can't think of anything! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The biggest problem that Unily is solving is "information overload." Before adopting Unily for our intranet vendor, we still sent out most of our employee communications via email. Since adoption, we have reshaped our approach and now have much clearer guidelines for what information should live where. Our employees are happier that they aren't getting bombarded over email, and they know where they can go to find information on general company updates and highlights, department sites, and more.

What do you like best about Unily?

- the SaaS product has been extremely robust, in over 4 years we have had no overall outages that weren't planned maintenance. There was one incident where the issue was the underlying MS Azure services, but even that affected only a small portion of our users and was quickly resolved.

- Unily is very security / GDPR conscious - this is important to us and Unily has been extremely responsive in addressing any questions we have had in these areas. We consider their compliance in these areas to be top tier among our supplier base.

- The Unily Universe site has so much customer relevant information on all aspects of the product and there is a pretty healthy amount of customer to customer social interaction - exchanging tips, tricks and ideas.

- The platform really gives us a lot of flexibility. There is a huge amount of "out of the box" functionality, that allows us to build our employee intranet and other solutions pretty quickly. And it let's our content creators create engaging content without requiring support from IT. On the flip side, the product allows for a great deal of custom development and configuration and we have taken full advantage of this to develop really cool solutions to business problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Unily?

There are 2 areas for improvement and one area that needs some serious discussions with customers

- improve support. The support team are knowledgeable for the most part, but tickets can take a long time to progress through escalation to closure.

- improve the developer experience. The product offers considerable capabilities for custom development and configuration, and there is a great deal of information available on the Unily Universe customer support site. But more is needed, specifically more support needs to be available to developers on a more timely basis.

- there is a need for Unily to get more input from customers that are impacted by the products switch to the feature store. While this is overall an improvement in how new features are delivered, there have been impacts to the customers that built and customized their Unily content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

- Unily has become our primary channel for employee communications, replacing a number of outdated legacy intranet solutions

- Unily is a hub for accessing our key business applications and for setting up specific sites supporting business functions / organizations

- Our front-line workforce (break-fix service, professional services, managed services) provides most of our business revenue. Unily has become a key component in how we deliver business knowledge to our workforce. For example, our service organization relies on Unily to host thousands of service manual, hundreds of videos explaining how to fix products and FAQs, service bulletins, news about service apps, etc. The other key part of this is that Unily is fully mobile enabled and allows us to distribute a mobile app with all the same content and features as the desktop web version. This gives our mobile workforce full access to the same information as our back office workers.

- Besides our employee intranet, we have build external portals for our customers and our sales and service partners. We are able to load one set of content and share it to employees over the intranet and to our customers and partners over these external portals. One product - multiple portals - no content duplication or replication required. Easy security architecture to safely partition the information in such a way that we can internal information visible only to employees, but share information with external users.

What do you like best about Unily?

Unily has been a great partner. We're able to take advantage of the many options, features, and functionality that they offer for their internet. We love that it is easy to use, customizable within reason, and user friendly. We're very happy with the customer service that we've recieved from both the customer service teams and the technical teams from Unily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Unily?

We'd love for there to be additional customizable options for end users to take advantage of. Currently, there are offerings from Unily, but many of the customized choices are only offered at an additional SOW cost. If there were more out of the box solutions, but with some small custom options (such as icon changes, colors, etc) this would be a great enhancement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Unily has helped with giving the organization a platform to share communications and critical messaging to all employees in a clean, user friendly layout. We utilize Unily for our employee intranet and have found that it is very user friendly, allows for the features and functionality that our employees want, and also is continually growing and enhnancing to meet future needs.

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

We needed a replacement for our Knowledge Management platform (previously on Solcara). Our ultimate need was to (a) improve efficiency for our lawyers in terms of accessing knowhow and (b) reducing risk by ensuring the latest and most up-to-date knowhow is all in one easily-accesible place.
