“Revolutionizing Data Search with Glean AI Tool”

Dec 12, 2024
Being able to use Glean has been a game changer. I use Glean as a powerful AI tool to extrapolate information across the dozens of solutions and tools we have. What use to take me 45+ minutes to find the right data, I can search in Glean and it will share the answer I'm likely looking for and share the internal resource where it found it, if I want to learn more.

Glean Likes & Dislikes

Like

The ability it has to quickly sift through multiple internal data platforms to find the answer I'm looking for.

Like

- The Home Page that includes the search bar as well as the linked bookmarks for each site you use - The Search function which allows me to search any document that I may need - The directory of people in case I need to quickly reference an org structure

Like

I like how quickly conversations, whether they are done on slack or any jira issues that have been raised recently or are very old, get added to glean and i can find them easily through similar search terms. So, whenever i am faced with an issue I first look at glean to see if that has been done within the organisation previously or not.

Dislike

I wish it offered a more seamless experience in my daily work and the ability to choose more platforms to pull data from

Dislike

- Customizability: I believe there is more of an opportunity to improve the customizability of the Glean product. For example, bookmarking specific documents where the Trending boxes are. - Improved Search: There are many times when I will search for a document using the Search bar and it will not show the exact doc I'm looking to pull.

Dislike

Sometimes I am not able to get the proper search result which I want at the top of the search list. This means I have to go through multiple links to find the exact link which relates to my issue.

    Sep 25, 2024
    It has been really productive and a game changer for my work process within the organisation. Whatever I need in terms of getting information about the issues or trying to find any slack thread that might be related to some issues, all of them i find quickly through glean which helps me find solutions quickly if they were discussed earlier. This helps me skip jumping through hoops to get to a solution very quickly. This has improved my productivity and efficiency in terms of time spent finding information.

    Global Search Across Company Data: The Unexpectedly Useful Tool

    4.0
    Apr 24, 2024
    I didn't expect the product (global search across all company data) to be that useful when I first read about the idea. But over the last 2 years of using the product it has become my go-to option for all searches. Being able to find resources from all company internal websites with a single search is a great help especially when a lot of the internal resources have poor visibility.

    Boost Your Productivity with Efficient Search Techniques

    5.0
    Apr 20, 2024
    Glean has been a game changer for my productivity and the time I spend on debugging issues, finding long lost messages, knowing what trending searches are across the org that other users are also viewing frequently, so that I can also remain up to date. Integration with various applications has provided easy and quick search across all potential places where answers can be found. The feedback from my peers is also on similar lines in terms of increased efficiency and productivity.
