EXo platform offers a large number of ready-to-use functions, which determined your selection. Also, that it has a user interface is well designed. It is easy to know what tasks are available in each section. Learn the system and have the best customer service.
We selected this product firstly because it's easy to use for end-users, even if it's not so simple to configure from an administrative point of view. Managing and tracking overall activities is quite easy and it's also possible to have an immediate vision of everything that is …
eXo platform combines a number of features such as document management, wiki, internal social networks, messaging, calendaring as well as portal functionality. It is undoubtedly a feature-packed platform of the order of e.g. Sharepoint.
The interface, although quite complicated, is still better than the lead competitors. It's indeed a kind of software that requires that many features and we are yet to find a company that will make it incredibly ease to use.
eXo Platform is a very good application, and I'm sure this application can be a "white horse" for the platforms that I have written about above. This platform has a competitive price and a multi platform environment. This platform is very easy to install, suitable for a new …
One of the main reasons for choosing eXo was the good UI and UX. It is well suited for social collaboration features. Chat application provided by eXo is very good and is outstanding when compared to skype. Also Calendar feature is also very helpful for social apps development …
It overall stacked up incredibly against all its competitors. Its customer service, simple to use format, and ease of implementation were hard to beat. We got up and running in about 6-8 months and it was right on schedule for implementation. It's feature set was smaller …
Our organization selected LumApps for its customizability, integrations with the Google suite, Slack, etc., in addition to the customizable meta-data that would allow for a unique user experience for our global teams so that users in the Latin American region, for example, …
I was not part of the selection process. We do have teams that are using Sharepoint due to the fact that their teams use MS Teams heavily to share and collaborate. Some teams find it easier to simply build out Sharepoint pages because their Teams content already lives on …
LumApps is more fit for purpose for a collaborative intranet. Lots of features related to internal communications. However, some of the tools provided are not intuitive for people who have experience with other CMS platforms. The setup is a bit challenging, and will likely …
Sharepoint is also fairly easy to use for content creators. Sharepoint has been around for a very long time and is a powerful enterprise tool when it is well implemented, but implementation is critical to ensure that both the brand experience and usability for content owners …
LumApps certainly outperforms some of these platforms on the enterprise level due to their partnership with employee management services like Okta. That said, the content management aspect becomes more difficult because the management process feels very manual and rigid. Bulk …
LumApps is so much easier to use. With Sharepoint, you probably need a developer due to its complexity. You don't need that at all with LumApps. Marketing and HR professionals can easily learn it. It is best to lean on LumApps or a partner to build out a few templates to get …
LumApps offers organizations both a data push and a data pull option. Controlling page viewership by the audience sets this tool apart from many other communication options. When organizations put in the appropriate design time effort to leverage LumApps' feature set, their …
Google Sites is not meant to be an intranet, we were using it well beyond its intention, but it was free (and we use G Suite for everything else). We demoed Jive and Facebook for Business, but neither sufficed for an intranet that also needed to be a repository for documents, …
LumApps works with SharePoint and provides a much easier and more intuitive user interface. It is fairly simple to learn the basics, although plan to spend more time to really dive into all that it can offer and become an expert in the product. They seem very entuned to the …
We used Jive previously. From a capability standpoint, Jive was very strong. It could do a lot, and it did it mostly well. However, Jive was purchased and the company that bought them ruined the product. We would have severe downtime (sometimes for multiple days), and support …
In our scenario, we're using it for DMS, too. The DMS functionalities are suited only for small enterprises because when the number of resources increases it becomes harder to manage overall configuration. Anyway software is quite easy to use from an end-user point of view and it increases collaboration, especially when the team is already suited to use collaborative tools.
LumApps is THE employee experience platform! With its customizable meta-data, I was able to create over 700 pieces of content to deploy a regionalized user experience for our global sales and customer success teams. No longer were employees inundated with content that did not apply to their region or market. With LumApps’ best in class functionality, the integrations that our organization uses, such as Google and Slack were easily integrated within LumApps to create a seamless user experience for a global audience.
I personally love the user-friendly interface. Often you find software which is difficult to learn, and not utilized as often as it should be because of this. With eXo Platform, the interface is easy to understand, and is not particularly challenging to new users and non-tech savvy individuals.
It allows you to get work done, without feeling like using the platform is part of the actual work. It feels more like a natural system you would use in your leisure time to connect with friends and family, rather than a social intranet designed to facilitate employee communication and help you meet project deadlines.
The cloud platform allows users to easily share information and files, and collaborate on project work. Another benefit to this is it makes mobile collaboration possible.
Ajax call timing is more when creating space from eXo portal. Sometimes some UI portion was getting messed up in older version of eXo portal.
Should have a good validations for e.g "There are no documents available in this folder" instead of blank when there are no documents available in document folder.
The editing user interface is a bit wonky and occasionally glitchy.
The back-end options are not organized super well, which can make it confusing to find the right settings.
The customization options are somewhat limited without advanced CSS/dev skills, and the basic functions can be a bit challenging for some non-technical users.
This platform has a pleasant user interface, is very easy to use, and offers a lot of useful accessories and add-ons. At first it can be a little intimidating, but it doesn't take long to get used to it. It is considerably reliable and safe. Facilitates connection and collaboration with coworkers. It provides tools that allow you to capture, organize and act according to the internal knowledge of your team.
As I said before, LumApps platform is not intuitive at all, people have a lot of trouble using the tool, the curve to learn is too high, mainly the style part, is so confusing what I am adjusting there, is the outside of the widget? What does the padding do, what does the margin does.
The eXo platform offers a high quality support, which satisfies the requirements of our company, especially when the platform begins to be used, due to the amount of tools that can be overwhelming. Support responses are made in a short period of time.
Question and bug support are very helpful and quick. About the feature requests, we don’t have much visibility of the features that we suggested, or If they are going to implement some solutions or not.

It overall stacked up incredibly against all its competitors. Its customer service, simple to use format, and ease of implementation were hard to beat. We got up and running in about 6-8 months and it was right on schedule for implementation. It's feature set was smaller then it's competitors but even at first glance it was much easier to use for the amount customization it contained. We considered factors when purchasing like ease of use, adaptability, and look/feel overall as a product. No product came close to LumApps on these features.
It is starting to reduce our reliance on email, and the overall volume of email.
It has created a smoother induction process for new starters because it is a central place where all employees can go for the core information and resources they need to stay informed and do their job.
