Still recommending ThoughtFarmers' intranet!

Likeliness to Recommend

10 /10

What differentiates ThoughtFarmer from other similar products?

Price, ease of set-up, intuitively manageable and not complicated to train other content owners to delve right into the architecture, functionality and features.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

People Finder

What do you dislike most about this product?

Administrator rights. Needs more levels of access or a checkbox as to which parts of the site, the admin can access, not an all or nothing approach.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

2FA for client portals: I'd recommend waiting until its in place if that's something on their wish list. I also recommend asking for the "say my name" feature, the interactive maps and analytics pkg.

Pros

Efficient Service
Caring
Respectful
