What differentiates Hive from other similar products?

With the help of Hive, you can track the time it takes to complete a task and designate task owners to approve time tracking and task completion forms. The unfinished work of each participant can be seen in full perspective. You can switch between multiple project views to see a schedule of activities, projects, and deadlines.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I like Hive to keep track of the status of my projects, and monitor how well they're progressing. A basic update of the tasks that are still in progress and those that have been completed for your projects is available through the Hive mobile app. You can develop your own projects and choose whether to share them with the entire team or just selected team members.

What do you dislike most about this product?

More automated features are still missing in Hive. A better search option might be available. The PC app may need some improvements.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I recommend Hive it's a great tool for adding team members, external users and starting new projects. Messages sent in groups or privately are constantly exchanged.

Pros

  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing

What differentiates Hive from other similar products?

It's easy to interact through private chats or group text messages thanks to the native messaging software, which is a sign of virtue. You can choose to export project baselines as spreadsheets and view a summary list of all projects in progress. For each user, a bird's-eye view of overdue jobs can be displayed.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Like Hive you can create forms using the form builder. You can create subtasks, assign tasks to users, and automate workflows for those pesky tasks you have to complete. Both file sharing and Google Drive integration are available. You can designate task owners to approve time tracking and task completion forms, as well as track the amount of time it takes to complete a task.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The cost of hive add-ons is high.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I suggest the Hive mobile app because it provides a basic update on work that is in progress and completed. You can share tasks with each team member directly from the message board by choosing the group chat option.

  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product

"Effective Collaborative tool!"

Likeliness to Recommend

8 /10

What differentiates Hive from other similar products?

It helps us a lot in project management and helps us to manage the project with several views. Whenever we have to submit the request form it is editable and we can make changes whenever there is a need to do so. They have great robust proofing and review environment. They have great communication features or collaboration and integration.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Hive is very easy to understand. It is a very simple tool and we can easily be taught to other users. They have a very user-friendly interface. They have a concise and easy work board for their users. They provide us with a great ability to change the assignments easily. It is very efficient and easy to use.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Hive does not have supportive features for client management and it takes a very long process to manage the clients which are very frustrating. We cannot attach multiple files to any document and have to attach them one by one which is quite complicated. They have not yet introduced their mobile app which makes things difficult to handle. There must be more integration included with other software. They are lacking reporting and accountability factors.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Hive is recommended because it is simple and easy to use.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Saves Time
  • Friendly Negotiation
  • Helps Innovate
