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.

There are some features we use regularly that are only available in the desktop version but it hasn't really prevented us from doing what we need to do.

WorkOtter from the Top Down or from the Bottom Up | Comprehensive Project Management Reporting.

The 2 way Jira integration was a must for us. The ability to reply to projects via email without having to log in was great.

Have questions, you can always call customer service to fulfill any lingering questions/doubts.

It's hard for me to really find something I don't like about this product.

It is extremely user friendly for our most tech-savvy employees to those who struggle with new technology. I highly recommend this software for project management needs.

Being able to see excess capacity is really amazing too to watch over personnel, & being able to try out the ‘what if scenarios’ is quite impactful.

Some features might need updates as new updates are added/edited by Project Management Institute. Missing the updated software or new patches part.

I love that I can customize the dashboards and that this tool allows us to forecast projects which helps us with reporting to upper management.

Displays and reports are easily customizable for use in any industry. It's wonderful that it can be integrated with most programs I use for managing like Microsoft Project and Excel.

I am from Brazil and they support English only. I already mailed them with this suggestion but no ETA yet.

The syncing features help to improve documents and allows for better communication.

I've been able to ask anytime I've had a problem and get some guidance to use the product properly.

WorkOtter has provided us an opportunity to get control over our complex tasks.

The sales officials, support team, and installation guides have all instilled a sense of trust in me with WorkOtter.

Another great part is this software is great to use if your small and only have 1 or 2 projects or if your large and have a great deal of projects going on. Plus the price point is great.

I especially love how the dashboards can be customized per user, giving everyone exactly what they need in one easy to use dashboard.

WorkOtter has been a huge game-changer for me with regards to managing resources on multiple complex projects.

Reports Module - this has tons fo reports where we can see and select the desired reports. In summary, a perfect tool for Project manager,  cost effective.

The second feature that I love is the ability to source dashboards and reports from open community sources.

Our sales person was able to answer all of our questions, and helped us find solutions to our current Best Practices. It was like he had a solution for everything we threw at him.

I would say the limited Language option & the features for mobile option is quite limited.

The sales rep was never meddling and explained pricing upfront. Everything has been great with everyone involved.

I really like that the reports can be emailed to users automatically and you can customize and build your own dashboard. I like the mobile views of iOS and all the interactive features.
