Hive Software Reviews

“Easy team setup and workflows

Pros

Getting our team set up was pretty easy and creating a custom workflow system was also a simple process.

Cons

Our team would really benefit from a more powerful and reliable notification system to help us stay on top of project tasks.

“Clean and simple user interface

Creating an account and getting started was not as fast or easy as I had hoped it would be.

Hive has become essential for my daily work. Its best quality is how it smoothly combines project management and team collaboration tools. Plus having communication, tasks and file sharing all in one place has really improved our team's efficiency and coordination.

Cons

The mobile app works but it needs an upgrade. Also it is missing several features that are available on the desktop site which I feel like would be really helpful for managing work and collaborating when I am away from my desk.

“powerful & collaborative!

I really love it and I cannot find anything wrong with it.
