We had a Google phone number set up before and Jive was a lot better option than that. It is more consistent and can be configured much easier and with more advanced settings. Additionally, based on the pricing as well as working with the rep on our account, it was a perfect …
Chose Jive
We also use Skype to communicate in our organization. They are both useful for organizational communication. The good thing is in Jive, you will have your own personal timeline. Jive also has a newsfeed or timeline that you can browse where you can see the latest updates from …
Chose Jive
Jive provided phone support which can be useful in case of emergency. Jive's initial pricing was free which helped jumpstart the process. It also provided JIRA integration which we needed for certain teams. Jive also had Zendesk integration which was useful for support teams to …
Chose Jive
I evaluated several other tools (Bluekiwi, Jalios), I use Sharepoint standard version, but it is very difficult to compare.
Chose Jive
We use Jive to keep in touch and share mass updates/important information to the company. It's a good way to keep up to date on what's going on, read articles others share and get to know each other a little better.
Chose Jive
We found that Jive had integrations with the existing IT infrastructure/tools which was nicely aligned with our strategy of playing nice with the existing ecosystem, rather than compete against it. Jive uses a technology stack that is well known by our organisation …
Chose Jive
I honestly don't recall what we briefly used before Jive - it wasn't good and didn't last long. I think it was under-utilized because you couldn't really do a whole lot with it. Jive does pretty much everything we need it to do, so for that reason alone, Jive is the superior …
Chose Jive
I was not involved in the decision to implement Jive versus competitors. My presumption is that the feature set at the time was attractive compared to options like SharePoint. Useful to note that SharePoint seems to have closed the gap in recent years.
Chose Jive
I think Jive is a very unique platform in that it is very user intuitive, and acts just like the social networks we've all grown to love and used to. I think it's a great way for the team in disparate locations to stay in touch, and a great way for management to monitor …
Chose Jive
Igloo has more features than Jive. Also, it seems like the support for igloo seems to be better.
Chose Jive
I was not involved in the decision to purchase JIVE. I was the lucky user of it.
Chose Jive
Very powerful collaboration tool, intuitive, easy to use and commonly used by software vendors - so once you are experienced with it you can apply your knowledge using it in many places.
Chose Jive
Jive is a little behind the curve in comparison with the latest Microsoft features. Jive's lack of native capabilities to support work that requires process or structure increasingly puts it at a disadvantage.
Chose Jive
Jive works more with how people actually work and not how admins think that people should work. For example, relying on a folksonomy of tagging instead of a restricted taxonomy is far more practical with how users actually search for content. By putting the power to the users, …
Chose Jive
Saas.. let someone else run it
The other products don't come close to the simplicity and ease of use of Jive. Jive just works.
Chose Jive
It's the market leader in Gartner's magic quadrant and the most innovative and easy to use platform.
Chose Jive
Without getting into specifics, Jive is relatively strong in terms of more 'ready to deploy' business solutions that require less overhead on the client organization side in terms of IT infrastructure, operational support and ongoing administration and maintenance. While some …
Chose Jive
Drupal would be much better suited. They have fast version upgrades and immediate customer support. Jive lacked in all those areas
Chose Jive
I have worked on Lithium and Liferay. LifeRay has an advantage that it is opensource and will be cheaper. However it lacks the ton of features provided by Jive. Lithium does not support advanced customizations (except for theming). Jive does have the capability to customize …

The content in the news section isn't totally responsive - meaning if I have a small window taking up half my screen, the images for the headline articles may not load properly and when I maximize that window, it's left with ugly half-loaded images. Also, the collaboration feature for Office documents is great in theory but tends to cause more pain than it's worth to just download the document and open it separately in Word or Excel.

Previously for any inspection we use any ordinary forms using pan and paper so with this method we doesn't get the report of the user and our inspection but with the help of Joyfill we are getting proper reports.

I think the software is well suited for targeted feedback for large organizations. I think product marketing teams could use the software as well. I think it competes directly and does a better job than SurveyMonkey. The platform feels more mature. I think this would work very well for politicians to be able to use to invite constituents to provide feedback on local, state, and national govt.

Cons
  • Search functionality is very weak

  • This is more towards industries inspection so they have mostly templates related to those inspection only.
  • Some times their QR codes for scanner aren't performing well. We frequently get this complaints from our users.
Read full review
  • Offering suggestions on how best to provide feedback in comment boxes. Perhaps forcing the creators of the surveys to list examples to help reviewers
  • I think having emojies would help as well instead of the standard language.
  • Perhaps adding a mobile platform for customers to send out to their workforce

There are always external factors that can impact this decision but currently, the Jive platform is maintaining its lead in the market place in this area. If the innovation in this space by Jive continues, then this number will remain high. Integration with other systems and adaptability to changes in the market or in client needs will also make this decision hard to predict more then 6 months into the future

Usability
It was very cumbersome to generate reports. Often I had to run several reports and then merge them offline to get what I needed.

Reporting granularity is also lacking

Reliability and Availability
Uptime was OK. But there was one day that the system crashed for a whole day. Our company was unable to operate. And all the plugins to word/excel froze causing those systems to freeze.

Jive posted a statement to the media saying all customers were up, but we were not.

If I did this over, I would hire out the implementation. They know the best practices and could have guided us to make an easier to use setup.

The ability to integrate into email platforms to send out to the whole organization is valuable, and the ability to save answers gives employees time to think and carefully provide the best answers to the survey questions

  • Helped us fulfill MSA requirements from our clients to have phone support. Couldn’t have closed some of our deals without it.
