Excellent for building efficiency. We use GoLinks across our organization daily.
Ease of access to key company resources and information. Eliminates time spent scrolling through drives or bookmarks.
CONSNeed to type in GoLink perfectly in order to be taken to the right spot. Auto-redirect would be helpful in case typos are made or the exact sequence of keywords isn't used.

"GoLinks will make your worklife a little bit easier!"
GoLinks has been important for my at work because I don't have to bookmark or memorize messy URLs anymore. I can memorize simple, human-readable text that is actually relevant to the information I'm looking for, and it's all customizable to my preferences.
PROSThe best thing about GoLinks is that it turns long, messy URLs into short, clean, human-readable URLs that are easy to memorize hence making it more efficient and less frustrating to find information. GoLinks are easy to set up and even easier to use. It's a must-have for all companies. GoLinks provides an excellent user interface and dashboard with loads of valuable resources like link analytics, chrome extensions, personalized links, and many more.
CONSThere's not much to dislike about GoLinks but if I had to nitpick, it would be that there aren't too many integrations that are available straight out of the box; however, all the important ones are there, like Slack, Google Docs, and Gmail.

Best way to make the location of your links & docs easy to find!
In meetings, it's so helpful to ask attendees to visit go/xyz rather than (a) telling them a long URL (b) sending the link in the Zoom chat which disappears as soon as the meeting is over (c) sending the link somewhere else that gets attendees to actually leave the meeting to find it!
PROSWe all have so many bookmarked links and docs, sometimes it's difficult and time consuming to find the right one. GoLinks fixes that by making your most important links easy to access through a memorable, short and customised URL!
CONSIf a GoLink is already used, it'd be great if you could send a request via GoLinks to the owner to see if you can take over ownership e.g. if theirs is no longer in use. Not a big deal - you can see who owns it and can just message them elsewhere :)

More than meets the eye
When first using GoLinks, it did exactly what I thought it would - create a customizable url for webpage. The applications of this are plentiful, but for my use in a professional setting, we use it to link to a Jira form that creates tickets for our team. This go/link is easy to socialize, especially if you use a catchy or intuitive name, and it avoids a problem we would otherwise face if not using GoLinks. If certain modifications are made to the Jira form, the form will then update to a new url. This can create a scenario in which A) the new link has to be resocialized to all of our stakeholders every time and in addition, B) any documentation that has the link embedded would have to be updated with the new link.GoLinks circumvents all of this as it is the one central location we can update. What I didn't realize is that problem B can be addressed as well because a GoLink can be hyperlinked on a page as well by linking http://go/[link]. That way, once the GoLink is updated, all of the pages where the GoLink is linked are essentially updated along with it. So you no longer have to manually update every page. Loving the functionality of this product.
CONSHaven't found anything that I particularly disliked with the software yet.

Time saver and easy to use!
I sit within People Ops, so to be able to share vital information on all things of the employee life cycle and office experience with GoLinks is a breeze. Not to mention creating easy to remember links as well for folks to visit over and over again. Really helps with communication efforts and increased engagement overall from employees
PROSSo easy to use, a huge time saver and engagement analytics!
CONSAs of now, nothing. I've had nothing but positive experiences with GoLinks. As a user and admin.

Great for organizing your links

CONSthe naming structure of the link is still open to users to create, which leads to some mess

Great URL shortener
Keeping track of messy URLs and give them descriptive, memorizable, clean URLs
PROSShorten any URLs, very convenient for getting memorizable URLs (like wiki, github, etc) by giving them descriptive, "pretty" names. Also, it allows trackjing usage stats for the shortened URL. The customized DNS record enables us to use directly `https://go/` which is much easier/shorter than bit.ly or [SENSITIVE CONTENT]
CONSNothing comes to mind. Everything works as advertised. The UI is decently polished as well.

Game Changer!
The ability to shorten the old fashioned long form URLs into a go/link format is a game changer. It is now easier to share URLs across the company, and easier to type them in in case you have misplaced the long url! They also can be edited, in case you need to change where they point towards!
CONSI like it all - Go/Links works exactly as intended!

Simplifies managing links to important sites and gives great analytics too!
Love how anyone in our org can create their own go/links to make it easy to distribute links to everyone. And it's easy for other folks to manage those links, search for other links, and see statistics on how frequently they're used.
CONSNothing in particular comes to mind at the moment.

An awesome way to create shortcut links for anything under the sun!
I love the following: (1) creating links that are easy to remember (2) being able to share the links to any one (3) efficiency in being able to find the document or website right away
PROSAs most of our documents are in the cloud, this helps us create easy-to-remember links to important but non-user-friendly URL. I also love the fact that we can make any short cut/name for the golinks we are creating.
CONSNone as far as I can tell. Everything is an upside.

No need for bookmarks
- Simple enough for most of the usage, no need to learn anything.- Saved a lot of time across the team from maintaining a portal to list all dev tools- go/xxx is linguistically natural to use
CONS- Maybe there's feature but I am not aware of, if there could be subdomain for each team to use it would be more convenient- sometimes have to create longer URL to be unique- Not free

Efficient
GoLinks make it easy to navigate to pages with the least amount of clicks; it saves me time even over using Bookmarks.
CONSI only use GoLinks for pages I go to daily or at least a few times a week. If I didn't use them frequently, it would likely be easy to forget how I named the GoLink.

Very helpful and easy to use
One silly but useful benefit is the aesthetics of sharing using a golink in a presentation: instead of displaying a long bulky URL, can easily showcase a quick link for a large easy that's easy to remember and use, i.e. go/statusdashboard
PROSDashboard is very easy to use and navigate - particularly find the quick links in the sidebar helpful, i.e. My go links and Analytics
CONSIs there a way to use the golink shortcut in the search bar without first creating a golink via the extension?

Convenient and intuitive way to navigate company resources
See above -- it's a timesaver and helps me find the right documents, project boards, etc.
PROSGoLinks is a shared set of bookmarks managed by the entire team. It's been hugely helpful for me as a recently onboarded employee. If there's a golink for it, I can trust that I'm generally looking in the right place. With the browser extension, I can easily search through all important resources in the company, and I've found that for the most part I can guess a golink and I end up in the right place.
CONSHonestly? It's all upside. Nothing negative to say.
