Brian R
Director of Accounting
4.0

Brian: Hi, my name is Brian. I am the Director of Accounting at MD Squared Property Group, and I would give Hiver a four out of five. When I started at MD Squared, we were a very small company, and of course, you're doing everything via email. And as we scaled over the years, we were looking for a ticketing solution so we could keep track of our emails and make sure that everything was resolved in a appropriate amount of time. So I started looking into different ticketing systems, and we found Hiver and decided to go with that one. I was looking into a variety of different solutions, some of which had these very extensive online platforms to manage all different types of things. They were very robust, but I decided to go with Hiver because it integrated with Gmail, which we were using at the moment, so we were able to seamlessly integrate that with our existing systems. And I really liked that it was simple and easy to use, and it would not be intimidating for new users, and I thought it was very appropriate for a mid-size firm such as ours, that went from having no solution to having its first ticketing and email tracking solution. Getting started with Hiver was very quick and easy. Their customer support team is great and available 24/7. We had a amazing, I guess, your onboarding associate, who walked us through how to use it on various occasions. And ultimately, all you need to do is install a plugin on your Chrome browser into Gmail, and it's all set, and you pretty much can set it up as you go. And it is very quick and easy to get online, which is one of the reasons why we decided to go with Hiver. So Hiver is very quick and easy to get online, but I would recommend that you have somebody in the office who's ready to handle the influx of data that will be coming in. I think you just need a plan for how you're going to close and resolve these open tickets and just making sure that all of your data flows are working as planned. But I wouldn't be intimidated, because everything is fairly easy to change and to improve. I'd say we jump into it at a small scale and do some initial testing to see how it's going to work, and you could scale up from there. And once you're online and you understand the basics, it's very simple to scale up and make it more robust and more impactful for your company.

Jonah G
Account Executive
4.0

Jonah: My name is Jonah. I'm an account executive. I rate Pipefy a four. And for more views like this, click down below. Before Pipefy, we were using the system of Google Sheets as well as Slack messages. The reason that wasn't particularly effective was because we needed to keep our own time sheets and keep track of everything we needed to do manually. With Pipefy, it does all that for us. So we don't need to pay attention to when things need to be done. Pipefy is constantly on us about what needs to be done and when. The reason we chose Pipefy is because it has an extremely intuitive user interface. It's highly customizable, and the Kanban functionality has such a deep level of automation and integration with other tools that it was really a no-brainer for us. Pipefy was extremely easy to get started with because it walks you through the setup process and it has fantastic templates for every type of workflow and task management functionality that you might need. If you're looking to get started with Pipefy, I would recommend checking out their free version. It includes almost all the functionality that you would have in any of their paid versions with just limitations on users and number of workflows.
