## Reviews

### "Boyisile's review" — 5.0/5

> **Boyisile** | *17 July 2024* | Airlines/Aviation | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The information is always there and it shows you the steps for you to be able to apply it.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes the search engine does not go to the information that your searching, so i believe that it should be improved.

-----

### "Guru = Our Trusted Source" — 5.0/5

> **Dana** | *17 July 2024* | Aviation & Aerospace | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Guru is our support and success team’s Internal Knowledge Base (or ‘IKB’ for short). This tool replaces Notion as our internal support process and how-to Wiki for our team and serves as a trusted source for the support team’s centralized collective knowledge.&#10;&#10;The adoption of the tool and its extensibility were critical to us, and thus far, we're pleased.&#10;&#10;Another pro: Ease of implementation and use - It can't be stressed enough how easy this was to configure and deploy.
> 
> **Cons**: I'd really like to see a more robust bidirectional integration with Notion, similar to how well Guru works with Zendesk's Help Center. We'd like to have discrete cards that pull in Notion pages and stay in sync with those pages. That said, Guru does allow for bulk import of Notion content.
> 
> I'd buy Guru again if I were starting an internal knowlkedge base all over again. In a heartbeat.

### "Guru is an amazing tool for all enablement support" — 5.0/5

> **Ness** | *14 July 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The Guru Analytics feature allows us to understand what content is most relevant, understand behaviours of teams who do look for guru support and at what time in any project roll-out.
> 
> **Cons**: If I had to name one it would be the manual adding of people to a collection, it would be great if everyone was added so they can be collaborators.
> 
> Guru has really supported me in my role of enablement with the team. Helping me to crete precise content and have a user request for the guru card at a time when its needed in their enablement search.

### "Easy-to-use, quick to adopt." — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *22 July 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Really clear organizational structure. Verification allows an easy way to check information validity and recency.
> 
> **Cons**: Guru has worked very well for most of our use-cases. The AI features are still rudimentary but that's not Guru's strongest point in our perspective.
> 
> Guru is the best company wiki I've gotten the opportunity to use. It's a great all-in-one tool allowing teams to collaborate across departments easily. The collections/foldering system has allowed us to develop much clear content hierarchy.

-----

### "Easy to use\!" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *20 March 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We use Guru as an internal knowledge base - anything from product guides and process outlines to company policies and team announcements. It's very easy to organize and update, and the "verify feature" helps us see what is up-to-date. I especially like how Guru incorporates AI - the AI search capabilities make it really easy to find the information I need.
> 
> **Cons**: I like the fact that Guru integrates with Slack. When someone asks a question in Slack, Guru will respond with a suggested answer. However, the answer provided by Guru isn't always correct. It does better with straightforward questions (ie, "what days are company holidays?") than with more complicated product questions.
> 
> I'm a user who isn't involved with the administration of Guru, I just use it as part of my day-to-day work, and I find it very easy to use. It's intuitively designed and simple to find the information I need.
