Likelihood to Recommend DocSend works really great if you want to send out a doc to a prospect and want to track when they open it and what content they view. The reporting on this works really well and I've been happy with this functionality. Where it falls short is when you're trying to use it for a live demo utilizing the join.me integration. There are a lot of issues when you try to switch your screen and it only works 2/3s the time. I'd prefer an all-in-one solution instead of this Frankenstein model.
Read full review Guru has been amazing in making sure my team is well-prepared by giving them information that they have been lacking. Keeping things all in one spot has been a game-changer for my team, and there are no questions about where something is located. "It's in Guru!" has been my tagline for the last eight months (since implementation)! Guru has not been great as a content keeper of PowerPoint presentations. I am looking for a solution for this, but in the meantime, we are still using a computer file folder to store all of our presentation materials.
Read full review Pros Additional information from users who have already downloaded the files or material. Additional information if the download link(s) have been resent. Password encryption if necessary. Email verification for third-party download via email. Add-ons with other platforms and applications, such as Outlook and Gmail. Seal of documents by electronic signature Read full review I use it to help me remember what I did and to provide tutorials that frequently need to be repeated in order to assist other employees of the organization. Configuring an FTP program is a method that is consistent with just minimal modifications each time. the feature to pass verification to other team members and even have Guru flag articles for re-verification on a schedule is amazing. Read full review Cons DocSend has a newer feature called Spaces, it lets you place multiple files into a single "deal room". Unfortunately for us, we need it to support nested file structures for larger content sets. Their support team says this is on the way. I'd like to be able to change the icons for links add to Space, currently, they're a default icon. Navigating the UI is just a bit laborious, it feels like it should be easier to get to link creation since that is what you're doing 90% of the time you go to the site. Read full review It can be difficult to locate specific cards at times. I'm not sure if it's because of the tags used for search. Guru appeared to be a good fit for our primary purpose of keeping procedures up to date. However, expanding that to organization users ended up being more difficult. Text editing is somewhat limited and subtle. You'll have to experiment with formatting, to see if you can make your card seem the way you want it to.

Read full review Usability Guru has always been easy to use. The only feature that seems overly complex is the analytics section, which we don't tend to look at. We've never had any difficulty with creating collections, boards or cards, or with sharing them with our internal team or external partners.

Read full review Alternatives Considered DocSend is more convenient than
DocuSign if you are already using
Dropbox , otherwise a lot of these solutions come down to pricing and preference on user interface. For us, DocSend was great until our needs changed to needing a more sophisticated contract management tool. With further integrations and API accesses in the future, I think it will be easier to have all systems communicating and working together .
Read full review First of all, when it comes to pricing, GURU was way more convenient and affordable at the same time. Also, with administrative organizational features, GURU has more to offer and more convenience as well. All in all, we, as a Team of managers in Fabfitfun, decided to go with GURU. We surely recommend this to our colleagues.
