Overall Satisfaction with Jive
Jive is being used across the entire organization. The business problem Jive addresses is improving and facilitating communication amongst geographically dispersed teams. It can help keep information in one place, teams can create spaces to post articles and share those amongst the rest of the company. Jive provides an intranet where all the company teams and groups can keep in touch.
- Facilitates sharing of information between various teams
- More 'social' features increase engagement on content (comments, likes, etc)
- Easy interface for posting articles
- Can be hard at times to search for older articles you are trying to dig up.
- The email summaries of missed posts keep repeating on a daily basis - if you haven't seen a particular article you'll keep getting emails about it.
- Categorization of articles could be improved. Not always easy to get the right category for a given piece of content.
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 coordinate with our company's Zendesk instance.
