## Reviews

### "Hive is a fantastic team project management tool" — 4.0/5

> **Sarah** | *14 February 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Hive is revolutionary computer program. I am really impressed by what the development team has accomplished with this program: The learning curve is minimal, it offers beautiful Gantt and Kanban views, instant messaging for collaboration, the ability to add comments to tasks and projects, and a fantastic focus mode.
> 
> **Cons**: There are only a few functions I've seen in other programs that I wish this one had: The ability to specify task progress percentages, partially conceal Kanban columns, and set rules for each column.
> 
> Hive is an excellent piece of project management software for groups whose members come from different industries or departments and don't use the same methodologies. Due to its adaptability and user-specific perspectives, it is well-suited to recording a wide range of information pertaining to teams and their projects.

### "Good for Small, Remote Teams" — 4.0/5

> **Morgan** | *16 June 2023* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The native time-tracking feature was one of the biggest reasons our team chose Hive as its primary project management tool. With a team as spread out as ours geographically, Hive has made it easier to collaborate and execute projects. Hive is always looking to improve, and we appreciate that they ask for feedback and implement it.
> 
> **Cons**: Hive has limitations in terms of its reporting and integrations. We would love to be able to build our CRM right in Hive to simplify our sales cycle work and time tracking, but we must still use a third-party at this point. Additionally, automations in Zapier and integrations with third-party apps are still not as robust as with other popular project management systems such as Asana.
> 
> Overall, Hive has been a good system for our team to work effectively. It gets the job done, although not always as simply as other tools.

### "Desktop works great, complications with phone" — 3.0/5

> **Billie** | *27 August 2024* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It’s easy and simple to assign tasks to team members to ensure everyone stays on track
> 
> **Cons**: The mobile app is laggy and does not seamlessly work with the desktop
> 
> The platform is great in assigning  tasks to team member to keep everyone on track however the desktop and mobile app does not work seamlessly with bugs through  the phone platform

-----

### "Good and Bad, but Mostly Good" — 4.0/5

> **Lindsey** | *23 November 2020* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: For our team of five, the most beneficial features are: ability to assign two people, ability to color code projects, ability to track time within a task, ability to add approvers within a task, direct and group messaging within the app (replaced separate use of Slack), Notes and ability to share them, and the "status" and "table" views for projects.
> 
> **Cons**: For our team, we have had repeat issues with recurring actions not functioning correctly, specifically with auto-snoozing actions and sub actions (even past their due date) as well as due dates when we try to update recurring actions. We shifted our set-up and re-entered all actions at one point to try and workaround the need for a recurring action. We also prefer for actions with a date range for a due date to show up as of the start of that date range so we know how many days we have to work on something, however they show up the day it's due.
> 
> Overall, Hive works for our Marketing team and customer service is exceptional (especially \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\]).&#10;&#10;The biggest frustration is that we tested a few systems and chose Hive because it combined messaging, we liked the look of it, and the ability to link external apps if desired. The ultimate reason we chose Hive, though, was because when tested, projects with a date range for a due date showed up at the beginning of that range, which is exactly what we needed and no other system did that. However, a month after we switched and installed, that changed and they now show on the due date which causes issues (and extra messages and meetings) for our team to make sure stuff is being worked on proactively.&#10;&#10;We've had a large amount of issues with recurring actions and auto-snooze as mentioned above and I've reported it several times.&#10;&#10;We've had Hive around 8-10 months and just went through redoing our entire workspace to hopefully make it more streamlined due to the systemic issues we were having. With that, I'll say there are several ways to utilize Hive and you can find what fits for your team.&#10;&#10;So overall, good and bad - mostly good.

### "Under the radar project and task management system." — 4.0/5

> **Anthony** | *30 November 2023* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It was pretty simple to onboard our team and also simple to create a workflow system.
> 
> **Cons**: I think we need a more robust notification system to keep track of project tasks.
> 
> We were looking for an affordable solution for our project management and we found it in hive.  It does "almost" everything we need and we use it on a weekly basis.  It helps us keep track of each item that needs to be handled in a particular file.
