“Responsive Support and Smooth Interface Provided Despite Constrained Integration Options”

4.0
Mar 18, 2026
Hive very much cares about UX and heavily invests into things like smooth UI and quick loading times. It doesn't integrate very well with outside systems but as a self-contained tool it's remarkably customizable and, in our company, we find we don't need to customize it very much.

“Inefficient Search Function and Clunky Interface: Hive User Challenges”

3.0
Jan 27, 2025
There is a very long learning curve with Hive - it took me a full year to feel somewhat comfortable using it because it's just not intuitive (at least, not to me). It has many quirks that take time to learn - I am still discovering new ones after 4 years of using.

Performance of Hive Across Market Features

Hive Likes & Dislikes

Like

Out Of the Box functionality is sufficient for the broad majority of use cases. It's extremely user-friendly and takes minimal training to onboard new teams. Setup is very quick. The Hive support teams are extremely responsive and work hard to drive increased adoption and enablement.

Like

It is customizable and sufficiently manages workflow between marketing and design teams. It also is an effective way to record work volume, ie. to measure if we are making more requests MoM or YoY.

Like

It centralizes task and project management as well as communication/collaboration. I like the streamlined workflows with Hive. The tool comes with amazing resource and time management features.

Dislike

Integration options are somewhat limited, although the support teams are extremely helpful and reduce our LOE.

Dislike

The user interface is clunky at best. It is very difficult to find what you need, and the search function has not been usable for quite some time, which is frustrating to say the least.

Dislike

Hive has been smooth. No serious flaws.

    Pushing Productivity To The Limit With Hive

    5.0
    Jan 12, 2026
    Hive has been great in centralizing team communications, collaboration, task and project management, and it also makes resource allocation easy. With the tool in place, teams work collaboratively towards a common goal which leads to better productivity. In addition, Hive comes with automation features that save time which would have otherwise be used on repetitive tasks.

    Jul 6, 2025
    Hive is a project management software. The product integrates well with other applications to enhance productivity. Use of the tool has enabled us to manage both production and our customers. Implementation of the software is easy and efficient. Automation and customization capabilities of the product are brilliant, and there is no need for a developer in the implementation process.
