## Reviews

### "The best project management software" — 5.0/5

> **Tichaona Redemptor** | *22 February 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It has a smart analytics feature that allows users to track their progress, performance, and productivity, and get insights and recommendations from machine learning.
> 
> **Cons**: The task dependencies feature is not available or not working properly. Users cannot create dependent tasks or link tasks to each other.
> 
> I think Hive is a great project management tool that offers many features and benefits for users.

### "A potentially powerful tool crippled by poor and inconsistent UI" — 2.0/5

> **Matt** | *29 June 2024* | Design | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: They have a very good support team and the project gantt charts are useful.
> 
> **Cons**: The UI is unbelievably poorly designed with lots of inconsistencies and everything takes more clicks and time than it should. It is incredibly inaccessible for the neurodiverse because of it's poor design. It takes a long time to learn and is quite glitchy. I frequently encounter problems and it is difficult to work out whether each problem is due to a Hive glitch or a user error because of the poor UI. It's a total time sink and makes me want to quit my job.
> 
> An unmitigated horror story of misery and despair. Completely unsuitable for managing multiple complex jobs with many moving parts. A very poor piece of software for granular time management. It has lots of potentially good features but they are all so badly and confusingly designed. It could potentially be very useful and powerful but they need to completely revamp their UI design philosophy to make it easy and consistent. It feels very outdated and not well joined up.
