Hive

The Only Project Management Software with the Features I need

Vorteile:

Hive is the only project management software that is cloud collaborative, has infinite sub tasks, and Gantt charts so it was an easy choice. Also it is not Microsoft Project so I don't have to deal with their insane billing methods. Chatting inside tasks or letting task owners turn sub tasks into their own projects is great. Everyone can keep up with who is working on what and who needs help or what is holding up the project. Sign in and billing is super easy. Support is extremely reactive when I have questions. There is a bunch of stats on task completion that I don't use, but look useful.

Nachteile:

The mobile app has significantly reduced functionality compared to desktop.

Benefits project managers greatly

Kommentare: Our company's leaders now get a bird's-eye perspective of all ongoing work thanks to Hive. Using this technology has helped us streamline our processes, which has resulted in better projects completed faster. By consistently utilizing Hive, we drastically reduce the likelihood that a client's inquiry or a project's progress would be overlooked.

Vorteile:

The visual interface is intuitive. Our Marketing team can benefit from using the proofreading tool. By streamlining the approval process, it shortened the time it took to complete our projects. Anxious users will like the "my actions" tab's streamlined perspective. It's great that any member of our team may serve as the project manager for their respective tasks.

Nachteile:

I'd like it if the statuses could be modified to suit individual needs rather than coming prepopulated, or if the option to delete the default statuses was available.

Quality product with an excellent team behind it

Kommentare: Hive has been an excellent partner for us and our clients.

Vorteile:

We have been partnered with Hive as a reseller for about a decade. We have multiple clients that use the Hive product and it has always been a reliable product. When questions come up or help is needed, the Hive team is always very easy to access and provided excellent and fast support. The quality of the analytics that are collected in the Hive platform are excellent and easy to dig into to find fine details. Overall, excellent product, excellent team of people behind the product.

Nachteile:

Hive collects a great deal of performance metrics from end users. This data is very valuable and it can take a little bit to learn the different ways to slide and dice the data - that said, after a couple of hours spent digging into the data is about all it takes and that couple of hours is a VERY worth while investment and given the utility of the information available well worth the time.

The tool has a lot of features but not very intuitive to use

Kommentare: The tool seemed liked it had it all for managing the whole operations of my function but once started using it I ended up giving up on features like time tracking and ended up using sheets for simplicity and efficiency. Once a feature fails to deliver because of how complex it is, the whole project team ends up parting with the whole platform. I would suggest reworking the entire platform unless the aim is to keep it for dedicated project managers and not function leads that want a tool that is much easier to keep the ball rolling while adding efficiency to their function

Vorteile:

A lot of project and team management features including time and progress tracking

Nachteile:

Not very easy to use and setting up the time tracking feature requires a lot of time and work

Ideal for cooperation on internal and external projects

Kommentare: Team members should be able to talk to each other right away. As a company, we rely heavily on phone contacts with consumers, therefore when problems arise, staff members need to be able to get down to the bottom of things without having to start another call. While on the phone with a customer, we may effortlessly converse thanks to this service.

Vorteile:

It's incredibly straightforward, yet packed with flexible features. handling projects as a manager. Assigning work to team members, keeping tabs on their progress, etc.

Nachteile:

The only drawback thus far is the cost. Although it is not the cheapest service we have used, it has everything we need to keep our projects on schedule and working smoothly.
