User Testimonials
	OpenText Hightail	Stack Overflow for Teams
Likelihood to Recommend	OpenText Hightail is my go-to source when I need to send large files that would never fit as regular attachments. That being said, sometimes there are files that would perfectly fit as attachments but I want the security that Hightail provides when sending sensitive or private material. It's very comforting knowing that the content I'm sending is only being received and viewed by the intended parties. It's also comforting for my clients when it's THEIR content that I'm sending for review. Incentivized Daniel Shatzkes Founder/CEO Read full review	Stack Overflow In my opinion, Stack Overflow for Teams is well suited for an organization that is on a hiring spree for the engineering teams. The reason for it is because instead of catering to doubts of new joinees individually, they can be asked to refer to the Stack Overflow and hence will save a lot of time for both new joiners as well as the existing employees.

Pros	OpenText Management of content, communication, spaces, and projects in general. Control of processes, tasks and activities between the different members of teams. Collaborative work through different media and channels. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Stack Overflow Sharing technical solutions to problems we encounter in our internal development environment. Sharing best practices we find in external resources. Discussions on design patterns and conventions we can use in our projects. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	OpenText Some of our recipients are not very tech-savvy and can get confused with how to download a file. There is some room for improvement by making it clearer where the user should click to download the file. Incentivized Lisa Moughan Global Marketing / Corporate Communication Manager Read full review	Stack Overflow I would recommend an increased engineering focus on the Microsoft Teams integration. It would be nice to make more medals. Easier ways to earn points. Incentivized Brandon Camerer Senior User Experience Designer Read full review
Alternatives Considered	OpenText Honestly, once we started using Google Drive more efficiently and saw what improvements OpenText Hightail had made, it was hard to choose. But now that we more consistently use Google Drive, I use it probably 75% more than I use OpenText Hightail for the same tasks. I'm not sure how much longer I'll be a customer at OpenText but it's great to have both options. Incentivized Sarah Bandy Executive Director Read full review	Stack Overflow It's easier to use Stack Overflow for Teams Q&A to maintain our knowledge base over time, over the Confluence wikis that we also maintain. You don't need to bother about folders, filenames, templates - just ask a question and answer it or get it answered. It feels less formal, so developers feel more free to add content. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	OpenText Hightail simply saves time. We no longer struggle with trying to meet the requirements of OutLook. When we have a file that is too large to send via OutLook we just "hightail it". Incentivized Saryia Green Marketing Coordinator Read full review	Stack Overflow It makes the search for answers more efficient, so devs can focus in more important things. Knowledge is not lost, even if people leave the company. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
