Fibery Reviews

“Saves us a lot of time”

Pros

Fibery is incredibly flexible as it lets me customize my data entities and workflows exactly the way I need them. In an executive leadership role where I am juggling multiple threads at once, it has reduced the time I spend managing everything by at least 75%.

Cons

The dashboarding still needs a lot of work. Also it would be much better with more options available and I have also seen the charts behave strangely a few times without any clear explanation.

“The support team is outstanding”

Pros

One of Fibery's biggest strengths is how everything connects with everything else. You can link entities across multiple databases and shape it around almost any workflow. The team behind it was also a big plus. As when we wanted to customize certain processes with scripting, they were very supportive and helped us quite a bit.

Cons

Our biggest challenge came when we tried to do multi project resource planning where different team members hours needed to be assigned across multiple projects over different weeks. That setup is not available out of the box so we tried to build it ourselves with scripting. Also the team was very helpful in getting it running but in the end it just was not practical. It kept breaking every couple of weeks after updates. Running that logic in TypeScript inside the browser alongside its components was too slow to be truly useful. So we eventually had to go back to Excel for that part which was disappointing but at least it gets the job done.

“Versatile and powerful workspace”

Pros

This platform is incredibly versatile and powerful, works fairly fast and gives us almost endless ways to organize our data. The support team is also excellent and very helpful whenever needed.

Cons

There is a bit of a learning curve at the beginning but customer support provides plenty of help. Early on it can also be a little hard to feel fully confident about who has access to what across different databases.

“Feature rich tool”

Pros

The mind map feature is a highlight for me and I really like how flexible the databases and different views are.

Cons

At times the mind map feature stops working and I feel it still has plenty of room for improvement. Since I am a very visual person, mind mapping is by far the feature I use the most.

“comes with some limits”

Pros

This tool focuses a lot on managing project and company knowledge which is a valuable part of the platform.

Cons

A downside is that it's closed source, the data is not stored locally and the shortcut options are fairly limited.

“time-saving automation tool is top notch”

Pros

Fibery's flexibility is one of the biggest reasons it works so well for our team. It has replaced several tools for us including Notion and Jira which have really helped simplify how we work. Plus it adjusts nicely to different workflows so it fits our teams needs without much compromise. The AI features and automations are also very impressive and save us a lot of time. Another thing I really like is that the team keeps rolling out new features on a regular basis.

Cons

It can be a bit overwhelming because the interface is more complex than something like Notion. Also there is a learning curve which can be frustrating at first. Not having a mobile app is another downside. Plus it is not really designed for personal use so I still need a separate app for that which makes switching between tools a little annoying.

“One of the best tool!”

Pros

It stands out for its exceptional flexibility and the overall user experience feels uniquely well crafted.

Cons

Just keep in mind that same level of flexibility comes with a fairly steep learning curve at the beginning.

“Love the relational linking ability”

Pros

Relational links between objects let us see all related items in one place, as long as the right views are set up.

Cons

There are still a few bugs which I am sure will be fixed. Also it is easy to get lost going down a rabbit hole of pages. So I am still figuring out the best way to avoid that.

“Good but hard to rollout”

Pros

Being able to build different views of the same dataset is a strong advantage and gives the product a lot of flexibility.

Cons

learning curve is still a challenge and the overall concept is not simple enough to roll out across more complex teams. Yes there are templates and options for advanced users but it feels like there should be more middle ground options to support the different roles within a company or team.

“Care a lot about users”

Pros

It does a really good job of linking user insights directly to the actual work that needs to be done.

Cons

Well there are still quite a few bugs.

“Powerful database links and whiteboards”

Pros

The way it handles relationships between databases is incredibly powerful. Notion offers something similar but this one takes it to a completely different level. Also the data driven whiteboards are another standout feature and the two way references are the best especially when paired with the powerful search which works so well that it almost feels underrated.

Cons

One part that could be improved is the form used to create new entries. For now the format feels too complex and makes the process more awkward than it should be.

“Fibery User: 6 mos”

Pros

This software offers flexibility and customization which makes it easy to design workflows based on a database.

Cons

The software has limitations when it comes to integrations and fulfilling specific form-based use cases.

“Great no-code platform for most business needs”

Pros

The ease of use, wide range of customization possibilities, and excellent reporting make this software stand out.

Cons

Although the whiteboard implementation is satisfactory, we would like to have more integration options.

“A product tool I enjoy”

Pros

Fibery's UX genuinely made me feel like using a product management tool can actually be enjoyable. Also the interface makes everything feel very easy to reach, update and adjust. Their AI addition has been useful too which is still not something you come across that often these days.

Cons

Honestly I don't really have any complaints. I am mostly just looking forward to seeing how they continue to expand the platform's functionality.

“Allows top customization and BI”

Pros

Starting with a blank canvas is definitely the biggest advantage here. You get to shape the whole system yourself from the relationships to the data structure which makes it incredibly customizable. Also the built-in BI tool is excellent too and in some ways it even outperforms certain full featured BI platforms.

Cons

It does miss quite a few smaller features that other competitors already have although I understand that it has a much smaller team and probably focuses more on larger improvements. But my biggest frustration is the lack of reusable data field templates. For instance if I want a Priority field with three options, I have to recreate it manually for every single database.

“powerful and user friendly workspace”

Pros

Using Fibery has been a standout experience. The user interface feels top notch and it manages to offer a huge amount of functionality without feeling overwhelming. Even with how powerful it is, the platform is surprisingly easy to work in and setting everything up feels just as natural. On top of that their support team has been excellent.

Cons

The timeline view still needs a bit more refinement. It would also be better if there were more integrations available with calendar apps.

“pretty valuable to use”

Pros

It brings a fresh perspective to idea generation and management and that unique approach makes it really valuable to use.

Cons

A few things still feel missing especially customized PDF report generation, stronger visual drag and drop functionality and a mobile app.

“Give freedom to build your own workspace”

Pros

One of the best parts of it is the freedom it gives me to create my own collaboration and productivity setup instead of being stuck with whatever structure a software vendor decided on.

Cons

It rolls out new features on a very regular, almost weekly basis so there is always something new being added and that has been true for years. So honestly I don't feel like anything important is missing for me at the moment.

“powerful hub for growing teams”

Pros

If you are building a company from the ground up, this feels like the kind of all in one tool you can really rely on. You can run pretty much everything in one place such as product, sales, marketing, people and more. Overall it genuinely feels like you can keep the whole company here. And I am not completely sure how far it can stretch once things get much more complex but it gives me the sense that we'll be able to keep using it for a long time as the company grows.

Cons

One thing I still miss is a stronger set of features for sharing views with people outside the company, along with a few other external sharing options.

“Fast and responsive UI”

Pros

The app works quick and the interface responds really well during use.

Cons

The thing I'm still missing is the option for guests to edit a shared document.
