Likelihood to Recommend 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 It's well suited as a central point for your company. It can easily be branded for your every need and showcase everything that's going on for your users. The mobile app is excellent and gives the full package on your mobile device so that you're always in tune with what's going on at your workplace. There are loads of shoutouts and constant uploads of team photos and excursions. We work for a really active company, so there are always loads getting posted on a day-to-day basis. It breaks up the monotony of staring at a spreadsheet when you see your colleagues having fun while working.
Read full review Pros 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 It's a great document library for everything to timesheets through to expenses Great friendly fresh feel to the interface User information is easily synced with AD/AAD and other sources Great 'People' section where staff can get to know their colleagues Great 'Apps' section where you can add links for all the sites our users need access to Read full review Cons I think the tab that suggests other cards would helpful. My search for specific words opens too many cards, and it is very difficult to pinpoint exactly what I am looking for. I would recommend a feature of recently viewed or most popular tabs. I am sure those logging on are all looking for most of the same information. Read full review I don't like the name. It's actually not simpler to spell Simpplr. Nice product, daft name. I'd like to see the people section stand out more and have a bolder collaboration side to it. It would be awesome to collaborate on documents together via a screen share facility. Video calling directly via Simpplr would be awesome.

Guru does the heavy lifting to get you set up quickly, ensuring information is readily accessible when and where it’s needed, all while improving in quality over time
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 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.
Read full review Simpplr seemed to have the most modern approach when describing what they want to achieve for the company. It integrates with all the platforms that we use and ticked all of the boxes we were looking for in a modern intranet package. It is significantly more modern and easier to manage than our old Intranet. Our comms team loves it, and feedback has been great from everyone in the company. It's hard to find any negatives about it.
