Igloo Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

View company announcements with ease and is cost-effective, and a user-friendly/collaborative tool for us to use. With excellent support from their team to ensure that any challenges/difficulties we face will be resolved immediately. Very smooth and the integration process was fairly simple and quick. It has also helped the day-to-day responsibilities easier.

Igloo has helped my organization to promote communication and better collaboration between employees and customers. It allows a better flow of communication across the organization and has helped me better manage my day-to-day processes.

Amazing software that helps with information sharing with clients and collaboration across various parties. All the information is in an organized manner which allows the flow of information to be concise and precise so as to stop any bad information to pass through. Cost-effective and generally there's always support from the team.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Igloo as our company's intranet. It's useful but complex. We have an FTE dedicated to managing Igloo b/c of how heavily we use the system. The system lacks some of the features that you'd expect from an intranet such as an instant messaging feature.

Likelihood to Recommend

Igloo works well if you have a decentralized company that needs to house information in the cloud to collaborate. It's particularly useful when you're in various locations. The search feature to reference past discussions or topics is quite limited. It's definitely not Google level. You have to punch in the exact name of the item you're looking for to have it show up in the search.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Igloo was mainly used to improve communication between team members, to share files and to schedule meetings across the IT Department. We try to centralize all communications in one robust and reliable platform so productivity can be significantly increased. For employees that work outside the office, Igloo software is very useful, too.

Likelihood to Recommend

Igloo is a well-suited option for teams/companies that want to build an employee intranet with some other interesting features, like file storage and sharing, internal communications, and resource and knowledge management. All of these features may help your workers increase productivity significantly by centralizing everything in one robust and reliable platform. However, it can be less appropriate if costs are a problem for you, due to the pricing. So, if you will not be using several features and just want an intranet for you company, you may want to go with another solution.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

My whole company uses Igloo and it serves many purposes.

Each department has their own page or hub where they store useful templates and links for their own use. They also post updates and metrics that the rest of the company can use to see how that department is performing and what is new with them. The department pages are also used to share documents with the rest of the company like PPT templates or records of completed projects.

We also use Igloo as a social media platform. We post updates about new employees, upcoming events, and good news in people's personal lives as well as their work. In addition, we use Igloo for archiving of important records. We can have multiple people and departments contribute and we can access the documents remotely if needed.

Likelihood to Recommend

Igloo is really great for giving your organization access to the latest version of documents and templates. It's also great for organizing and versioning shared resources. It can also be customized for your organization in terms of sections, page layout, color scheme, branding, etc.

It's not so great for search or for offline use.

Overall I'd highly recommend it.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We've only just started using Igloo as a portal to support our international partners. We are located in New Zealand and our partners are located in the USA. Igloo provides a platform for us to share files and production notes so that our partners can see how our products should be assembled. We use the blogging function mostly.

Likelihood to Recommend

We use Igloo as a platform to share information among teams across different countries. We link production (printing) instructions with the production files so that the manufacturers have the most up to date version. This works really well.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Igloo is used across the whole company as our Intranet. It helps us organize key information we want everyone to be able to access, and helps our virtual organization stay connected.

Likelihood to Recommend

Well suited for companies of all sizes. I can't think of a scenario where it wouldn't be appropriate.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Igloo was being utilized across our organization by executives, corporate leadership, and property-level managers.

Likelihood to Recommend

Igloo is probably not a good fit for professional organizations who are looking to build a "intranet" experience.
