The software is really easy to use - and very friendly to the eyes and mind. I love using the Gantt-chart option when setting up projects, to keep a nice overview of the status of a project.

Hive is helping us modernize our efforts as a team and help our communication as a team be more centralized.

It was so nice to be heard and to have my feedback appreciated and implemented.

Also, I have used other project management softwares, and a lack of a desktop app or a addon (meaning you have to always open a tab to get the notifications) is a bit of a bummer.

My Hive accessories have been very useful and reliable.

This has been a great software to do it and we have been exceptionally happy with both the platform and the customer service behind it.

This tool is a good bang for your buck if you are a small business in need of a project management tool, as a lot of the other tools out there can get pretty pricey.

The small touches like custom messenger statuses and built-in giphy make Hive fun to use.

I very much like the ablility to integrate IM, email and the productivity capabilities into one tool. It's a fantastic way to keep a 360-degree record of every job.

Supplies easy, quick and fun communication with coworkers and teams.

Hive has been a great help managing sales orders, manufacturing processes, quality inspections right down to shipments.

Because it made my life easier, a lot (which every PMS should do). Their customer care is highly responsive and solved any minor issues I had within extremely short period of time.

Hive messaging is also really slick (we no longer use Slack) and the platform's Giphy integration makes for some fun times for our virtual team.

However there has been a few bugs due to updates that have limited access into the platform for a small amount of time (less than an hour).

Creating timelines and amending them can be difficult.

Thanks for making such a great piece of software.

Great tool, Awesome User interface, wide variety of features.

Overall it has been good. We have watched the program evolve and have definitely noticed improvements in ease of use and functionality.

Seamless use among team that definitely improves overall efficiency and effectiveness. Ease of use (even for less tech savvy).

The user interface is very intuitive. It is a great advantage that it has integration with many large companies.

Love the clean, bright interface, the options for data/project organization and visual representation, and stellar customer support - especially during onboarding.

We all love hive from the upper management to the day to day users. It is so great to go through the rundown of projects and see how they are all coming along.

Organization, costing, task management. The Hive app and mobile are also awesome.

I enjoy how integrated the platform can be with other software such as Microsoft office, and the customer service is pretty good.

There are so many features that I love about Hive. My favorite is that you can tailor each project view to what works best.

It's a lot more user friendly than Latex, which was an alternative that I had been considering for a while.

Ideally, I want my spell checker to highlight wrong words or bad grammar or even stylistic mishaps immediately after I type them.

Excellent for seamless collaboration with many contributors, somewhat clunky when creating tables.

Search and replace does not work on attachment names I have found.

However once it is set up and you are able to use the software as it was designed, you can save yourself a lot of time. Customer service has been very quick regardless of the issues.

The ability to monitor revisions and the database for storing images. Excellent for controlling permissions and reviewing rights.

As a Porter administrator I have very good experience with porter. It’s easy for new users to get started with Porter, easy to set up lay-out templates that saves the users a lot of time.

Good handling of tables and figures and their numbering.

A few of the Xaitporter's features are outstanding and very helpful.

A good tool for co-writing and keeping structure.

Great program for document creating and collaboration.

As far as I know, they've forgotten about my request. Me and my team spend a lot of time manually numbering items in tables and we frequently make mistakes that show up in published documents.

Regarding notifications for comments: The default should be that no one receives notifications.

I love that XaitPorter has a straightforward user interface that responds as simply as Word yet formats everything to our corporate specs as established in our onboarding.

Standard and streamlined output, easy to learn and start using, great for team collaboration. Perfect common source of info/library.

XaitPorter is the perfect solution for anyone who produces technical or commercial proposals. It is so easy to use, proposals look great (and in line with our corporate guidelines).

Automated editing or formatting is limited. Numbering and transitioning from word documents have some trouble.

Document library - once we set up document libraries, creating a complex proposal is very easy - and having standard content across the company is fantastic.

Xait support - we have a dedicated contact point (not just a standard email address) who provides feedback very quickly and troubleshoot any issues we have.

Drag and drop pictures/attachments, it is very tedious and cumbersome to have to upload and insert multiple pictures.
