Overall Satisfaction with Guru

The library was using a Word document to record procedures and policies of the library. The Word document became unwieldy and could not be gathered easily into a manual with a table of contents. We tried creating a Word Master document without much success. We happened upon Guru while searching for a better way to create procedure manuals. Since we had such a small budget, the free version made Guru all the more enticing. We have since expanded our use of Guru to include a collection of programming ideas and employee policies. We are considering using it as a project management tool. I was very excited to be able to allow our library board access to the procedures based on the last edit date and to share procedures with other libraries with the print to .pdf function.
  • table of contents
  • placing files under one or more user's purview
  • Quick and easy access for the whole organization
  • setting review dates for documents and specific reviewers
  • The free version has limited text formatting options.
  • In the free version, it is time-consuming to reorganize the order of files.
  • The free version does not integrate well with Grammarly.
  • The free version has a few kinks in the print to pdf.
  • Table of contents
  • Easy access
  • Free
  • Being able to show my library board what procedures had changed and how they were changed during a specific time frame was a huge feather in my cap.

Did Guru live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Guru go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Guru again?

Yes

In my opinion, procedural manuals are the best use. The free version would not be well suited if the end document had to be held to company branding standards.
