    Unless you have the time and effort to do this on your own, Stonly is a fantastic tool that helped us communicate with our customers without needing to think about it for too long. It is flexible where needed and we noticed that it is constantly improving as time goes on. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to provide their user's more guidance on how to use their applications or free up some time from the developer's workload.

    Pros
    Discontinued Products
    • Visualizing the hierarchy and relationship between objectives and key results. The nesting and double alignment functionality are especially helpful, as they can't easily be expressed on, say, a simple worksheet or Confluence page.
    • Reminding the team to make regular check-ins. What gets measured gets done. This prevents the common pitfall of setting goals and not revisiting them until the end of a project (when it is too late).
    • Integration with external sources for automated check-ins. Why do this manually when it can happen behind the scenes?

    Cons
    Discontinued Products
    • Accelerate integrations and add more integrations.
    • Ally.io has room for improvement in providing benchmark in-depth analysis across industries, same-size companies, etc.
    • Ally.io can still improve upon some of its product features and communicating the releases. Videos have been extremely helpful.

    Microsoft Viva comes with Teams. The Monday board is helpful too, but I just like Microsoft Viva better

    Intercom and Gist are more focused on Live chat, but the knowledge base is part of their offerings. I love that Stonly is really fleshed out and offers deep features built around the customer education experience.
