## Reviews summary

- Overall rating: 4.9/5
- Total reviews: 103

### Secondary ratings

- Ease of use: 4.8/5
- Customer support: 5.0/5
- Value for money: 4.8/5
- Functionality: 4.7/5

### Rating distribution

- 5 stars: 89 reviews (86%)
- 4 stars: 13 reviews (13%)
- 3 stars: 1 reviews (1%)
- 2 stars: 0 reviews (0%)
- 1 star: 0 reviews (0%)

### Most mentioned pros

- Directors can annotate documents, ask questions, and share insights directly within the platform, reducing email clutter and improving engagement.
- Collaboration is vital in our field with multiple users across multiple employers and this system is excellent for tracking consistency.
- Building and altering meeting packs is also very simple to do, and Knowa has some great productivity functionality for navigating and marking up meeting papers.

### Most mentioned cons

- On rare occasions, software can slow down - although this may be down to factors outside Knowa's control such as users network issues.
- can be difficult to navigate all of the areas needed, especially with add on elements for risk register etc
- Only a minor point but when comparing against the minutes it can be a little confusing. When adding a new member to the collaboration space, it is annoying that you add them and always have to add them to all groups on there as I sometimes forget to do this.

### A year and a half with Knowa

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Martin D.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Financial Services
- Company size: 1001-5000 employees
- Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: November 2024
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

A good experience with the software hinges on getting everyone engaged with it, but once everyone is setup with an account and it becomes a very effective way to collaborate where multiple separate organisations are trying to work together.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

The collaboration features; it's very easy to share files with clients securely, including files that would normally be too large or sensitive to share via email. Building and altering meeting packs is also very simple to do, and Knowa has some great productivity functionality for navigating and marking up meeting papers.

#### Cons

The cons that I had with the software seem to have been resolved; in the past I had found that manipulating documents in the file storage area was slightly cumbersome but it has since been updated to make this much easier.

#### Reasons for switching to Knowa

Not decided by myself, the switch was decided at Board level

### Review of governance platform on Knowa

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Annette C.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Chemicals
- Company size: 51-200 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: March 2023
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

I find Knowa very helpful and use the system daily but it does appears difficult to engage all our Trustees.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

It's easy to locate files on document storage. The meeting management facility is excellent. The team at Knowa are extremely helpful, friendly and are always striving to make improvements. The Risk Register facility is user friendly and helpful as the Trustee and advisers are able to access. I like the ability to ask other group members to either vote or read a post. I like the collaboration area but it does appear to be difficult to encourage our advisers to respond to this thread. The reason why they prefer to respond via email is that they are unable to keep an audit trail at their end.

#### Cons

It would be helpful if documents within each of the categories could be added so the last document is automatically shown at the top of the list.It would be helpful if once documents are added to the storage area, there is a facility to rename the file. At the moment, I am altering the title (making it slightly shorter and trying to cover full details of document ie add a date and removing any reference number from an adviser) in Solvay's storage area before moving to Knowa.

#### Reasons for switching to Knowa

BAC had been bought by Hymans and were no longer able to provide this service.We were encouraged by Zephyrus/Solvay/ndapt to use this system as the other four Solvay pension schemes were using this system and a number of ndapts' clients were too.

#### Vendor response

Hi Annette, thank you for sharing your feedback! We genuinely value insights like yours and are committed to continuous improvement. We’re pleased to let you know that, based on feedback from users like you, we’ve re-launched our document storage facility. It’s now faster and more intuitive, designed to enhance your experience further. Thanks again for helping us make Knowa better!

### Knowa Scheme & Board Management Review

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Tracey L.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Accounting
- Company size: 5001-10000 employees
- Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: February 2024
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

I've found the experience easy, helpful and productive. The procurement process wasn't overly protracted and there was a great pragmatic approach to getting things up and running. When there are issues I've found the response time short and issues do get resolved. Customer service is clearly highly valued by the Knowa team and in a busy role like mine that's important.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Because it's so easy to use it really saves me valuable time. The functionality in meeting management is also helpful.

#### Cons

I don't use all of the functions however, what do use I like very much. Perhaps the only issue for me has been in the appearance of Excel in View mode and the need to convert to PDF format which doesn't always work well.

#### Reasons for choosing Knowa

Knowa are innovative, they're investing in the future of the product. They wanted to do business with us and made the procurement process easy.

#### Reasons for switching to Knowa

The supplier was pulling the product from its ongoing development budget and the platform wasn't going to remain current.

#### Pros

The ease of locating past minutes and documents as well as dealing with day-to-day business. Resolving members cases has become a lot easier and faster

#### Cons

When colleagues respond I get a notification from Knowa and this means I have to login and access the system only to find out it is a colleague responding to my latest post

### Essential, Easy-to-Use, and Excellent Support!

I've been using Knowa daily, and it has truly transformed the way I manage the pension schemes I look after. The platform is incredibly user-friendly, efficient, and reliable, making complex tasks so much easier to handle. The organization and collaboration tools are second to none, allowing me to stay on top of everything with ease. Knowa has become an essential part of my workflow, and I genuinely can’t imagine managing pensions without it. Highly recommend!

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

What I liked most about Knowa is its intuitive interface and how it streamlines managing my portfolio of pension schemes. The tools for organising and collaborating are great for staying on top of tasks. It’s a game-changer for simplifying day-to-day tasks! Plus, the support team, especially Antonia, are always readily available and super helpful!

#### Cons

The only thing I’d say I liked least about Knowa is that it took me a little time to explore all the features and understand how they fit into my workflow. However, with the support team's help and the available training material, I soon got the hang of it, and everything became straightforward after that.

We have strengthened and brought time efficiencies to our internal compliance processes by using Knowa which will help us deliver a more efficient service and the ability to take on more clients.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

We have worked with Knowa developers to customise a governance framework which supports our service delivery. This gives us the facility to store pension scheme data across our client portfolio in an easy to use and robust system. It provides us with an effective decision making process and the ability to efficiently monitor key statutory and compliance deadlines, all of which underpins our AAF02/07 controls.

#### Cons

As with any introduction or change in software or process, there are always difficulties finding your way around a system and learning how to use it. Knowa support is excellent, from the onboarding process, online and 1:1 support and fact / cheat sheets. Each time we have asked for something to be tweaked or developed, Knowa personnel have responded quickly and done their upmost to accommodate.

### Communication between group members greatly enhanced

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Rosemary K.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Financial Services
- Company size: 2-10 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: March 2023
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

We have consistently experienced very responsive support from Knowa.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Knowa has enabled my group to have clear communication on any specific subject in the manner of a discussion similar to that in a face to face meeting, but having the added advantage of providing a clear audit trail of discussions and their conclusions. This has replaced the previous email trails which could become confusing and difficult to track. Knowa provides a useful central document storage that the whole group can access. It also has provided a very effective method of managing meetings with the ability to invite attendees and provide a full meeting pack with all relevant attachments. These remain available for reference after the meeting has taken place.

#### Cons

It did take a while to wean people away from using email for every communication and onto Knowa for those discussions that need to be more closely managed, but it was achieved eventually with the support and encouragement of the Knowa team. The system is functionally very rich, but it is not always obvious how to use a particular function, although the Knowa team are always willing to provide training and information sheets to help. It has now become an essential tool for my group.

#### Reasons for switching to Knowa

We wanted to find a method of communicating on key subjects that would be clear and unambiguous and it had become obvious that email trails were not always the best method to achieve this.We were using a meeting management system previously but Knowa was able to replace all the functionality we had available in this system and has gone on to further enhance what is offered to make it even more useful to us.

#### Cons

It honestly does everything I need it to at the moment. Will often tells me there's new features available, which I mostly end up using and wondering how I lived without and the occasional idea I've thrown at the Knowa team is always met with enthusiasm and a commitment to develop. Really lovely people to deal with.

The Trustee Board has reviewed our shared experience and consider the adoption of Knowa a big positive in terms of our pension scheme management. As Chair of Trustees, I have come to see it as invaluable. I would highly recommend.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

1. The functionality for running Trustee board meetings; from publishing the agenda through to approving the Minutes, is exceptional. At a recent meeting, our legal adviser, without being asked or prompted, praised Knowa and declared it the best Board management software they had come across. 2. The secure collaboration between Trustees and advisers and the ability to retain a tracked record of discussions/decisions/approvals. 3. [sensitive content hidden] availability and willingness to engage and assist is off the scale.

#### Cons

I am still coming to terms with the filing structure on our site. The search facility is very good and effective, but not as effective as knowing where to look/file in the first place.

### Tia Rowe - Knowa Review

Overall, Knowa is great. It was one of the first online software's I used when I joined XPS, it was very quick to understand which is good.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

What I like most about Knowa is it's efficiency to create agendas and invite Trustees to view them. It's simple and time effective.

#### Cons

A couple things I like least are: -the fact that you have to give access within access to spaces. (although this is very secure!) -I don't think you should have the 'stay logged in for 2 weeks' function as this isn't very secure. -folders and documents have no order which is annoying as a couple Trustees have contacted me asking why something from from 2009 for example is above something from 2022. So to implement an order function, where we can number documents so they can go in date order, would be great.

#### Vendor response

Hi Tia, thank you for sharing your feedback! We genuinely value insights like yours and are committed to continuous improvement. We’re pleased to let you know that, based on feedback from users like you, we’ve re-launched our document storage facility. It’s now faster and more intuitive, designed to enhance your experience further. Thanks again for helping us make Knowa better!

I find Knowa very easy to use. It is straight-forward to use and keeps things simple. Some portals often over complicate things when you just need something that is clean and easy to use. The support we get from [sensitive content hidden] is outstanding. He is always happy to help and offer guidance and explains things very clearly.

#### Cons

There is nothing in particular as I really like Knowa.
