### "Beekeeper - a good tool for fast and easy communication"

October 2, 2018

5.0

We are a Consulting Company: - We use Beekeeper mainly for our sales process (Lead Management) - Fast Information to all colleagues in the case of a request of a customer - Everybody is informed and has the opportunity to contribute with ideas or support in establishing offers for the customer - We use Beekeeper for general information for all employees (no need for an intranet anymore) - we dramatically reduced the amount of e-mails to inform the team or request support for the proposal process - As most people are used to communicate with WA - there is no need to train the people with Beekeeper, because it is extremly easy to use

Pros

\+ Easy tool (like WA) for employees travelling and working at different location. + Easy to use + Reduces amount of e-mails needed

Cons

\- there are no major issues with Beekeeper

### "Easy to keep everyone in the know"

November 11, 2020

5.0

Overall I'm very pleased with Beekeeper and how easy it is to use and how well it has been received by my team and by all of our store departments.

Pros

I like that Beekeeper helps keep all of our various departments on the same page about a variety of topics, as well as making it easy for them to share more light-hearted content and kudos to each other.

Cons

I wish Beekeeper could sync with Asana or some other task management software, or at the very least have the ability to flag messages, as in my communications I often come across a task that I'll need to remember and complete, but once the message is read, it's hard to find that reference again.

February 9, 2021

Not a fan of it but work had us sign up for it and can't login anymore.

Pros

We have this at my job and it works for what they want to use it for. Sending all sorts of info through it.

Cons

A pain to login and don't forget your info or it's a real bad time trying to get back into it. Wouldn't use it.

### "Love using Beekeeper"

September 5, 2018

5.0

I really enjoy using Beekeeper. Over time, our company continues to see increases in engagement. It's given us a nice platform to be more creative in our employee engagement opportunities and allowed us to communicate easier. We've added fun projects to keep engagement on Beekeeper high so that our company continues to use it. It's a great tool for both employee engagement and communication.

Pros

Widespread and on-the-go communication, user friendly, personalized to your company

Cons

I had an issue just once with uploading a big mp4 file even as an Admin (2GB is allowed). It is currently being reviewed. But otherwise, I am very satisfied with it.

### "Perfect tool for our employee communication"

September 4, 2018

5.0

Inform all our employees at the same time - organisation of HR-events.

Pros

As it's very easy to handle - all of our employees use it. As most of our employees do not work on a fix location to fix times - it's the best tool for us to inform all of them at the same time.

Cons

Not beeing able to search for posts in the app.

### "Best employee engagement app"

September 3, 2018

5.0

Beekeeper combines the "Facebook-streams" and the "Whatsapp-chat-groups" in a useful company communication app with additional features. All our employee communication is now on beekeeper. And on top: exceptional customer support!

Pros

Usability! No training needed, absolute easy to use (every employee likes working with it immediately!)

Cons

The app has not yet too many features (e.g. is not a task management tool). But they are constantly bringing in useful features.

### "Simple and Intuitive"

August 30, 2018

5.0

Communication is as important as air. Beekeeper made it easier for our colleagues to communicate. Staff engagement is a priority and beekeeper has help improve colleagues loss of appetite when it comes to communication and collaboration.

Pros

The design is simple and intuitive. Learning curve is not steep making it easy to roll out, get everyone on-board, and keeping everyone actively using the app.

Cons

The least I liked about the software is the surveys. The survey is a powerful feature as we are able to collect responses from colleagues on any subject. However, there is a limitation. When setting up a survey, you are limited only to the pre-defined choices. Just wondering if we can also prompt a survey question where the colleague can type his response.

Beekeeper has really enhanced our ability to communicate effectively, build on teamwork, improve moral, recognize staff and stay on the same page.

Pros

Beekeeper has really enhanced our ability to communicate effectively with a large as dispersed workforce.

### "Implemented Beekeeper company wide as we opened 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge."

July 5, 2017

5.0

Pros

\- Game changer for communication in hotels were the majority of staff are traditionally not connected via email. - Intuitive user interface - Ability to broadcast feeds on a communication monitor - Interactivity - ability to comment, like, poll users - Opening a hotel is a labor of love and life changing experience. Beekeeper helped link everyone and allowed us to share with the entire team the many different moving parts that went into bringing this property to life. - Mobile - allows our team members to capture and share what is occurring at work in real time.

Cons

\- Limited features - platform is almost too simple. Would like to see some additional features. I often compare Beekeeper to Facebook for work and features this site offers. - Lack of a calendar feature - Would be ideal if there were a calendar feature where events could be posted, users could be invited and could RSVP for events.

November 10, 2020

5.0

Pros

Our practice LOVES Beekeeper and I honestly can't imagine work life without it. The convenience this app provides for our practice is outstanding. The ability to communicate with all of our staff on one platform is the best feature.

Cons

Although we love this software, we wish there was an easy to use scheduling option.

### "A Fun Way to Stay Engaged with Colleagues"

August 30, 2018

5.0

The company I work for is a worldwide company; Beekeeper allows us all to stay in contact easily and see what's happening location to location. I look forward to seeing what my colleagues from across the globe are posting and in turn, sharing what's going on at my location.

Pros

It is very similar in ease of use to the most popular social media platforms. Beekeeper allows colleagues to communicate through pictures, video, polls, and simple posts.

Cons

I manage the Beekeeper access for my workplace and there are some things that could make it a little easier on the admin side for adding and managing users that would require less clicks and navigation.

### "Super app with easy and fast ways to communicate"

October 1, 2018

5.0

\- Improvement of internal and interdepartmental communication - Fast communication - We were able to stop using private apps (such as WhatsApp) for business content

Pros

\- Easy to use - Many ways of communication within the app - The use of labels to find messages

Cons

\- That there ist no possibility to insert pictures in the comments - It would be great if there was an internal calendar (for example, as a separate stream) on which each Beekeeper user could access and even appoint appointments.

The cross-company communication among employees has changed positively thanks Beekeeper.

Pros

I really like the App and the ability to chat with every employee in the company, because you don't necessarily need an e-mail account. The functions are very simple and self-explanatory.

I would like to share more documents with other employees (like share-point).

### "Great tool, Beekeeper Review"

October 9, 2018

4.0

The application could include tool as live video or an option for video calls within the chat. In addition, integrating metrics where the administrator could do a better monitoring of the performance of the platform.

Pros

Excellent application, the platform is easy to use and intuitive for the user. Is close to known platforms which makes it very effective. Good internal communication tool that has helped to establish a multidirectional communication within the company. Also, the customer service provided by the costumer success manager has been pretty good, and they are always available to solve any doubt or inconvenient.

Cons

Very good as far as user concerned, but from the manager’s point of view there are metrics whose function is unknown.

### "Beekeeper is working well for communication and teambuilding"

February 19, 2020

4.0

The headoffice is finally in contact with all of our team - and vice versa. In retail a lot of the employees in the stores and the warehouse don't have access to a computer and miss emails, newsletters, important information... This problem has been solved. We are also getting better and quicker feedback from the complete team and all employees are getting to know each other and the company better.

Pros

It is doing what it is supposed to do = Making communication easier and more direct with the whole team, wherevere they are based. It is easy to handle - as a user and also as an admin

Cons

The chat does not offer enough features yet e.g. deleting, forwarding messages, marking favorites, setting reminders. The survey could offer more features and should be available for all users - not only admins.

July 14, 2017

5.0

Pros

The product is very easy to use for all employees, which helps the adoption rate immensely. BeeKeeper helps our department stay in contact across the country since we only see each other face to face a couple of times a year. This has also served as a great avenue for communication and a great place to post internal articles and development related material for the department.

Beekeeper is a user friendly app. Easy to use. However the key is the support and the training that offers the software. It helped me a lot to understand and master the usage of this tool.
