Glasscubes Erfahrungen

Vorteile

It has intuitively well-placed modules (dashboard of recent content; very functional workrooms - each with separate document/comments and more; effective tagging; and global search are most-used and appreciated.

Nachteile

I would find it advantageous for Glasscubes to widen its array of pricing options.

Vorteile

The feature that I like best about this product is that it allows me to exchange files and manage papers without worrying about security effortlessly. I also like that I can build my unique material within the software, allowing me to need only one tool instead of the multiple I previously employed.

Nachteile

The only drawback I've discovered is that I have to extract documents to amend them before re-uploading them, but this is due to my organization, not the software. If you operate from an organization that allows it, you can use a desktop to access the system.

Vorteile

Easy to use, secure version control, good user interface

Nachteile

Nothing that I can think of at this time

Vorteile

Keeps the communication channels open, allows mutiple people to track jobs and respond the status. Really quick with greta file storage.

Nachteile

If the internet is down obviously that cause problems. It can be quite glitchy as our proxy walls cause it problems.

Vorteile

As a project that works across multiple education institutions we need to be able to access files and resources simultaneously while wherever we are working and glasscubes allow us to do that. We can also post updates for all teams to see and project data is kept safe and secure as we need it to for GDPR reasons

Nachteile

The homepage and dashboard can look clunky and a little boring and the search bar doesn't really bring up what I'm looking for but luckily files are easy to find in the management system.

Vorteile

Can add files and comments, ideal if you want to have multiple conversations going with a selected group.

Nachteile

There's one small issue, when emails are sent with the notification of a comment, all the text gets lumped together with no spacing. Has caused a few issues with lists as some people just read the email (lazy I know, but it happens!).

Vorteile

Very easy to use, staff and client's have picked it up very quickly and like it

Nachteile

None so far. Support has been really good at quickly providing assistance, hints and tips.

Vorteile

I have found it very stress free to update file changes on the system. Once members are added then updating these members to the file changes are simple and fast.

Nachteile

It has minimal visual clutter which can be a bit boring

Vorteile

The software is really easy to use and has so many features for our team

Nachteile

I think the dashboard can look too busy sometimes

Vorteile

Really easy to use and navigate. Lots of great tools to use within the website for different purposes.

Nachteile

The biggest issue is that my colleagues haven't been using it, which really doesn't reflect on the site itself.

Vorteile

The high security and protection of key documents, as well as the function that allows you to share documents with juniors or other people without giving there the ability to download or edit the original. Also the documents on Glasscubes can be uploaded in versions, so previous versions can be tracked and secured when needed.

Nachteile

It is very frustrating to share with other organisations who do not have the permission to access and edit the document as they are not a Glasscubes user, this makes cross-collaboration hard. Also if multiple people work on the same document- at the same time, you will get kicked out and it will become locked to the main editor, so again- not good for multi-person editing and collaboration.

Vorteile

The collaboration aspect of Glasscubes is what really makes it stand out, allowing teams to store, edit and share documents across multiple locations and organisations. It integrates perfectly with MS Office and 365 with the recently-added feature to edit online in Office 365.

Nachteile

Some users can find it challenging to navigate the site at first but this is very easily fixed by a short introduction and training session which we have integrated in the induction process.

Vorteile

I like the flexibility in creating secure spaces for diverse sets of users, some overlapping and some not, based on their functions and needs. I like how easy it is to send notifications to a group of users about changes, updates, etc. I like the ease of setting up forms for end-user input. Our users love how they can just go to Glasscubes for what they need at any time without having to go through us and our helpdesk. And I also love that I don't have to manage passwords!

Nachteile

Occasionally, but rarely, the format of pages where I need tables isn't optimal, it wants to out-think me a bit and makes me do what it wants rather than what I want.

Vorteile

Easy to use, easy to set-up and manage and easy to get in touch with GC if you have questions. It's a human company, and the customer service is amazing.

Nachteile

Possibly could integrate lots more features and apps like survey tools

Vorteile

I work for an international NGO and we have staff and Board members in about 40 countries. We were finding that our former intranet platform was no longer fit-for-purpose and 'clunky'. Our users were disatisfied, so we had to change.

We started testing out Glasscubes late 2016 and right away the support team have been answering our questions quickly. No question is ever too small.

We moved our intranet over to Glasscubes in April, with full launch in June. The platform is so user-friendly and we have seen a great increase in engagement from our global staff in the short time we have been using it. It is so intuitive. Many of our staff use Facebook, so they can figure out how to use it with miminal training.

The support pages are great and the live chat and admin forum are really useful for problem solving.

Highly recommended if you are looking for a collaborative platform.

Nachteile

This is more difficult to complete. Not being able to label mutlipl documents are a time is a bit of a pain - but the glasscubes development team is looking into a fix for this.

Vorteile

Simple to use and very functional. Flexiblility to create archives, workspaces and files. Easy to organise how you want.

Nachteile

Process for making updates could be slightly smoother but really not a problem

Vorteile

File sharing, workspace, tasking, collaboration

Nachteile

cannot set times just dates, this would be a very useful feature for us.

Vorteile

The software is easy to use and set up, the file storage system is ideal as you can document control and share. The tasks are also really good and we use the system daily across the business.

Nachteile

Task sharing across workspaces would have been useful for us.

Vorteile

The ease of use and support is fantastic. I save so much time by using Glasscubes. No longer do I have to spend time creating encrypted zip files to email. I just drag it into the required folder, click save and I'm done. Plus it's easy for me to see if anyone updates any of the files, makes a comment etc. Setting permissions is easy too so I can be sure the files are only going to the right people.

Nachteile

That I wasted so much time doing this all manually before I'd heard of Glasscubes!

Vorteile

Collaborative working at its best. We have been using Glasscubes for a number of months now and cant imagine not having it as part of our core toolset. The functionality is extensive and its incredibly intuitive to use. As a local government user, we are limited in the type of products we can use but this one ticked all the boxes and I can only see it's use increasing as time goes on.

Nachteile

nothing so far, I have not found anything that it cant do as of yet.

Vorteile

We have used Glasscubes to deliver an in-house intranet which is far superior to the previous portal we had using SharePoint.

Glasscubes allows a social-style interaction with comments and likes, and actively looks to have users engaged with the portal which has proved very successful so far.

It's a really excellent platform & highly recommended

Nachteile

Nothing to note - all users are very positive about our Glasscubes platform

Vorteile

ease of use and able to communicate easily with other staff members even if working from home

Nachteile

I am still new to using Glass Cubes so i am unable to answer this

Vorteile

Glasscubes is great for completing tasks and uploading files I would highly recommend

Nachteile

I have no issues using Glasscubes software the support we receive is great

Vorteile

Good for storing documents and organising them into tasks and files

Nachteile

It’s not easy to transfer files directly from the tasks to the files

Vorteile

I like that it is easy to use and set up. The collaboration features are also top notch. Glasscubes makes it easy to work with my secretary as well. I like the way that tasks are either not started, in process or completed. It makes it easier to keep track of things.

Nachteile

It needs an iOS app, at least for the to-do list and calendar. Google integration would also be great.
