The admin gui is not user friendly or intuitive at all. We have been unable to get users to interact with either working on it or using it. --- ### Great intranet site - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Jason Z. - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros It is great to input information and the customer support has been amazing.

No incentive was offered I think our site helps highlight staff involvement. It's also an extra level of security & visibility on documents such as policies and procedures that need to be kept off of our public site but still easy to access. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I managed to create a useful site for our staff in less than 48 hours. It went up so fast and is incredibly easy to populate with content. #### Cons Sometimes certain things have a mind of their own... the home screen skews percentages of columns depending on what section I put in it... but I can't seem to figure out why... I also don't like that if I lock down editing for an area, users can't 'like' anything there... makes the like button sort of useless. --- ### Wonderfully Simple yet Perfectly Featured - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Craig E. - Product usage: Used unspecified for unspecified - Reviewed: April 2016 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Our organization has now evaluated many document management, corporate social networking, internal portal and content management systems. Keeping an eye out for ease of use and rich but simple feature set that met our requirements. Noodle was the perfect product for this at a price that easily fit into our budget. Additionally, their customer support, ability to adapt to our requirements and energetic attitude was very refreshing. We sent a short list of similar products to a test group of 15 users. The users unanimously voted Noodle as their preferred choice as a document management and internal social networking site. Pros: Robust and Easy to Use Features Easily Deployed and Managed Modest System Requirements Ability to Install on Multiple Platforms w/ multiple database software options Does not require a high amount of user training Intuitive User Interface Easily Customized Look and Feel Easy to apply our company branding Cons: - There is no out of the box MS Office Integration. However, after speaking with sales and their technical teams we were able to determine a solution that would be included in a future release for integration with MS Office 2013. - Does not appear to support NTLM so users are required to login, this makes it difficult to make company announcements that would appear on the users web browsers home page (forcing the user to login to see them). #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 --- ### CAC Associates, Inc. - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Colleen D. - Industry: Consumer Services - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2018 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

We used vialect/Noodle as our intranet platform for our UK physiotherapy clinic franchise - Sports Physio UK. The customer support with setting up the platform was excellent, and their tech team are always prompt to rectify any glitches or issues we come across. This platform has given our Team a place to collaborate (formally and informally), share information, disseminate news/updates within the team, and share documents/files. The great thing is, it is future proof for us and can grow with us and adapt to our evolving needs. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros Customer and tech support. The features of the platform. #### Cons Can be a bit tricky getting some of the functionality working properly, but that is due to user skill level. Any issues, we contact the support team and they help us get it sorted. --- ### A great alternative if you want to build your inatrnet - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Accounting - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used other for less than 12 months - Reviewed: February 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Noodle is very well made. Its easy to apply forums, interact with others inside the organization, and you're able to customize your own page just how you want. You also don't have to host it anywhere on the web and you can apply restrictions so that others can't log in unless they're in your network. #### Cons The issues I found were similar to SharePoint and Wordpress in that you are almost limited with how you create your work, but nothing is impossible. Another issue I found was the pricing. If you have Office 365 license you could just use SharePoint. But Noddle is a good alternative if you're wanting to work around all that. --- ### Easy to use intranet software - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Outsourcing/ Offshoring - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used unspecified for free trial - Reviewed: March 2016 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered We are using the software for our five employees. With this intranet software we are able to publish news and useful links in one central location.

No incentive was offered Pros: - easy to use - functional - good money for money Cons: - design doesn't very fancy #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Customer support: 3/5 --- ### Noodle helped to bring back life to an old outdated intranet site. - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Angela C. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: January 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Noodle has a cloud based system that will allow you to access your website outside of your company's network. They have also integrated a Single Sign On (SSO) option for the cloud based users as wel. This makes it easier to login your intranet site if your company already is using a SSO software especially Windows Active Directory. The interface allows you to easily build pages and has a drag and drop feature that most people are familiar with. It also has features that will allow you to easily setup a photo gallery, create a poll, make and merge calendars, and create interactive forms. Using Noodle allowed our company to retain existing functionality from our old intranet site while incorporating new ones. #### Cons It would be nice if Noodle would allow you to connect to an external database or use an API widget in order to use existing custom built applications/import data. There are some features that are incorporated in the site (while useful) that are not intuitive to the end users that cannot be disabled. --- ### One of the Most Economical Intranet Options Available with Great Support - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Aaron S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Design - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used unspecified for less than 2 years - Reviewed: February 2016 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered My client was seeking an Intranet portal for a network of over 65 different offices across North America and Noodle was by far the most economical and most flexible platform on the market. One of the greatest strengths of Noodle is the permission levels available per user/group. Intranet applications in general are still relatively behind in terms of their usability and design, but Noodle does a great job of simplifying the Intranet but still includes many valuable tools and applications. In addition, the team at Noodle does an outstanding job of providing quick support and listening to opinions on future improvements. If you're looking for an easy-to-use, cost-effective platform for your intranet, Noodle is one of the most economical and flexible platforms out there. When Noodle works out of the box on mobile, i'll gladly give it a 5 star rating! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 #### Pros - Customer Support: The team at Noodle is quick to help out with support requests and issues - Permissions: The ability to have multiple permission levels per user or per group. - Searching/Filtering users : The People section on Noodle enables searching for users and custom fields. - Notify and Memo Manager Features: Great way to mass email all users or specific groups right from the Intranet site. - Portals: Portals have a lot of content features and styling options #### Cons - Lacks mobile responsiveness and isn't meant for mobile use quite yet - Scroll windows can sometimes cause confusion when adding members to groups or permissions --- ### An All-in-one solution - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Hospitality - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: August 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

This saves the need for multiple pieces of software. We also like to use the profiles as kind of like a team social media to keep everyone engaged. #### Cons There some upfront time investment needed to learn the platform/features and then train these out to your team. --- ### Up and Running in No Time - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Stinus A. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Staffing and Recruiting - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2017 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. It is a pleasure recommend Noodle from Vialect. The product is incredibly easy to learn to use from a design perspective and practically intuitive for the standard user. With help from the Noodle help center we have managed to build and extensive, interactive and informative intranet that is relied upon within our organisation of 500 staff. Maintenance is easy as long as you have a good map in place for your content. We have delegated responsibility for content to section contributors thereby avoiding the need for extra resource to maintain the intranet. Further, content is written and maintained by the subject matter experts. At a fraction of the price of many other products but yet feature rich and with the best support I have ever experienced from a vendor, we highly recommend Noodle from Vialect. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Easy to use, low cost, high ROI, outstanding support, flexible, robust, secure and safe. #### Cons Less flexible in design to some of the high end product. --- ### It does an okay job - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Banking - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: January 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 2/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros We have used Noodle for about 5 years at my company as an intranet.

You have to delete your cookies for profile updates to take place. The chat box doesn't have emojis, spell check, or allow you to have the chat up while navigating Noodle. It's just ok, overall. --- ### Centralized our intraoffice communication - buildout required time investment - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Eliot G. - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Secure and centralized our intraoffice communication. Because we use Noodle as the hub for policies, human resources, and training documents and videos, it took a lot of time and effort to get this running. The time invested wasn't due to the Noodle programming, but due to the large amount of information we needed to publish. Logging in and updating is simple. The layout is user friendly and customizable. #### Cons Internal messaging is only delivered if the employee is looking at the Noodle program. There is no desktop function that sends the message or an indicator to look at messages received unless you are in Noodle. --- ### Zoom on steroid - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: April 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.
