“Outdated Design and Slow Performance Limit Efficiency in Multinational Environments”

3.0
Oct 29, 2025
Unfortunately, my experience is only average because we are working with a very old version. It has a very oldfashioned design ad very long loading times. Still I am satisfied cause we have only this tool to store and share our knowledge and I can adjust and provide our content in a sufficient way.

USU Knowledge Management Software Likes & Dislikes

Like

What I like most is how easy it is to create, organise and update content. The best part of USU is its powerful search and well structured content organisation. I appreciate the reliability of the platform and the responsive support team.

Like

That I am able to customize it in a certain way.

Like

- Support features for editors and system administrators - Clear focus on industry trends and their implementation - Easy to use and implement - Variety of modules to enhance the standard software to suit the needs of the companies knowledge management strategy

Dislike

What I dislike most is the initial learning curve for new creators.

Dislike

It is very slow and old fashioned. Overall it's not state of the art and I miss up to date features and functions. We are a multi-language company with different markets. It's not possible to share the same information quickly across all countries without a lot of time and effort.

Dislike

- Technical debt in terms of specific hard coded features

    Helpful Tool, but Outdated Design and Complexity Challenge Effective Use of its Features

    3.0
    Aug 22, 2025
    USU is a useful tool, I do however find it not that user friendly and also not very intuitive, a lot of functions you simply have to know or read about, otherwise you will not know or understand them (especially when creating knowledge entries). The design itself also is a little outdated and not that modern, which makes the overall experience not above average for me.
