Cons

Not enoughreviews yet

Cons

“Lack of customisability can occasionally cause some issues for functionality, but we are not using the platform for its intended purpose which should be kept in mind.”
MG

Madeleine G.

Change and Relationship Officer

“Occasional glitches. Why the "Discover Groups" view (or what we call Spaces) shows Groups who I'm already part of, it doesn't make sense. ”
MS

Matt S.

Systems and Engagement Manager

“The lack of analytic information on what the users are consuming, and lack of support for team packages.”
