How to read the Emotional Footprint
The Net Emotional Footprint measures high-level user sentiment towards particular product offerings. It aggregates emotional response ratings for various dimensions of the vendor-client relationship and product effectiveness, creating a powerful indicator of overall user feeling toward the vendor and product.
While purchasing decisions shouldn't be based on emotion, it's valuable to know what kind of emotional response the vendor you're considering elicits from their users.

Hive simplifies project administration.

What differentiates Hive from other similar products?
Hive's ease of usage is ludicrous. One of the things I value most about working with my team is how well we coordinate our efforts and stay on schedule. We are also aware of all deadlines and subsequent steps. It facilitates interaction and makes it easier to finish projects. Because to Hive, we can stop worrying so much about keeping track of our chores and instead devote our attention to actually doing them.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Hive enables the growth of the team's ability to monitor all projects on a single system, since it gives us the freedom to present diverse information in varying degrees of depth on all of our projects either individually or collectively. Hive's ability to provide clear and concise dialogue between team members ensures that everyone is on the same page with regards to workflow planning and the specifics of individual jobs.
What do you dislike most about this product?
A few nitpicks here and there, such as the inability to remove my own custom fields. I thought I checked everywhere for a method to erase them and couldn't find it, but I haven't contacted customer care yet, so maybe they can shed some light. There were initial delays in enrolling users since the invite email had to go further than expected.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Hive has better road mapping for a product development team that works in unison across different locations. It's easy to keep track of tasks or if someone needs a hand. Through its simplified communication workflow, it's easier to anticipate any roadblocks in the overall project. This service has scope to improve the mobile application support as working with Hive from a mobile device is less than a pleasant experience.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
- Performance Enhancing

"Excellent software for managing projects."

What differentiates Hive from other similar products?
Hive is a program that differs from others because it offers a lot at a very low cost.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Hive is an ideal platform for managing and documenting meetings at the highest levels of an organization. You should set up the common projects first, then users can set up their own projects independently. Explain to everyone how Notes are shared and how private notes are added to public ones.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The functionality of the app on mobile and tablet devices might use some improvement. The mobile app is handy for quick assessments, but it seems cumbersome for comprehensive project administration. And depending on whether the iPad is held in landscape or portrait orientation (I can't speak to the functionality of other tablets), the software will behave differently.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Hive is highly recommended because to how quickly it can be set up and integrated into existing work processes. Users are guided through the initial setup with the help of Hive University, and the addition of this feature ensures that any lingering questions will be answered by a Hive expert.
Pros
- Reliable
- Enables Productivity
- Trustworthy
- Unique Features

What differentiates Hive from other similar products?
Hive primarily helps us with time tracking and making sure we're fully aware of the stages our projects are at. Through the dashboard, we can centralize workflows and combine processes like drafting, approvals, and automated administration. You can even modify your default email clients, tag colleagues and teammates, save and share crucial files and photos, and more.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Design and automation of processes for workflows. Support for kanban boards. Email integration. team synchronization. Variety of formats, such as videos. Platform for effective messages.
What do you dislike most about this product?
There is no possibility to add relevant files to tasks, not just text. Before using each feature, there is a learning curve.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Hive is a good choice for anyone who wants a team communication app with Kanban board support and doesn't want to use two different apps for communication and project management. With the free trial, we put Hive through its paces and figured out how to best customize it to meet our needs.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
