You just add people to it. All the changes are logged so you can see all the things that happen to your document. You can also create all kinds of documents on Quip, from the everyday text document and spreadsheet to the specific kanban board and project tracker (with a little help from Live apps). > > **Cons**: The app lacks the ability to add tags - which will be very helpful to further organize the documents. It also doesn't hurt to add the font-customization feature so that users can set the look and feel of the working environment to their liking. ----- ### "Share your work live with your team" — 5.0/5 > **Alessio** | *15 September 2021* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: If you are in a team and you have a bunch of Excels, PDFs and so on, this is the right software for you. You can have multiple users that can view and modify (you can set up permissions for that) your work while you are working on it. Very easy to use. You can save your files offline too Tried the iOS application , it works like a charm, no bugs at all. Obviously if you have a larger file, it will be difficult to read the entire document in the smartphone > > **Cons**: Sometimes the application crashed, but since the saves are frequent you don't lose your current work. > > I would recomend it to any company in which the strenght is speed and team working. ----- ### "Perfect for quick notes" — 3.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *24 June 2020* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Quip is a great tool to use for your team when quickly brainstorming and jotting down ideas. It strips itself of unnecessary formatting/UI options and provides you a clean slate to work smarter. > > **Cons**: While Quip is easy to use, using Quip as a main tool to create spreadsheets or documents is not something I recommend. Exporting a Quip spreadsheets to Excel will export all the information over but leaves you with a lot of manual formatting and editing and becomes unreliable when needing to export something on the fly. This could be fixed if the "Save to PDF" function worked properly, but alas, saving to a PDF does not allow you to format properly and will include the Header rows and columns into the PDF - thus not allowing you to send clean, concise information over to colleagues. > > Great tool for quick notes and easy access but not a tool I'd recommend to use over Google Drive or Microsoft Office. ----- ### "All in one platform to manage the entire documents and other tools in a single platform" — 4.0/5 > **EBIN** | *04 April 2019* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: We really like Quip the way it is built as the platform itself acts as a source to maintiain all the tools like docs, chat etc. in this single app itself. Quip is the best way to manage all the different tabs under one window. The major hike is with the single window system where all the needed plugins are added and can be managed. Quip is the one and only platform to simplify the user burden of maintaining multiple apps and multiple windows. > > **Cons**: The UI is very hard to understand at the first time and for newcomers. > > We have increased the productivity of our employees and thus our core goal of high productivity is achieved. ----- ### "Cheap Solution for Team Collaboration" — 4.0/5 > **Faiyaz** | *19 October 2022* | Design | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Quick Setup, easy interface, combines team messaging with collaborative document creation and editing tools, cheap plans compared to its competitors. Also supported by Zapier. > > **Cons**: Limited API, limited storage on free accounts, interface could be more polished and not that much strong as other competitors. > > Overall experience was great. It was easy and smooth. ----- Page: 1 / 10\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/104093/quip?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/104093/quip) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
