## Reviews

### "Better Than Project Management Software" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *19 June 2019* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Align works best when you know what you want to accomplish in terms of business goals and need to track progress, by individual, towards meeting those goals.  While task management is a feature of this application, these tasks are sub-elements of larger business goals.  The Daily Huddle and Weekly Staff Meeting features help drive short, productive meetings.  "Stucks" is a favorite feature to signal what's blocking your task accomplishment and who can help you.
> 
> **Cons**: It helps to understand the "why" associated with the features.  Although the use is intuitive, users would be well-served to read Verne Harnish's book "Scaling Up" to fully appreciate the basis for the software's utility.

### "Align Growth Management Software 5 Stars\!" — 5.0/5

> **Herb** | *30 January 2020* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The software is so easy to set up and use. The align support team was wonderful with answers questions and highlighting special features and reporting that would be helpful to our success.
> 
> **Cons**: They have been proactive with handling all my open areas of concern and providing work around solutions when ever needed. Which is rarely ever.
> 
> The team at Align understands how managing growth is important to my growth advisory practice and my clients. They go out of their way to provide outstanding support along with taking suggestions that have been put into future revision\!

### "Owner's perspective" — 4.0/5

> **Mohammed** | *16 March 2021* | Building Materials | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The software is designed with a strategic viewpoint. Strategy set on 3 years that filters down to look at each quarter per quarter I found invaluable. It's not only a Task management software but gives a more complete approach from a business point of view. Tasks aligned to  priorities makes the whole process interconnected leaving the team with both big picture view and day-to-day tasks. Finally, I love both the dashboard aspect which makes sure the whole team is motivated and the huddles that keep communication open and clear.&#10;The service from the team is very good and all issues are addressed asap.
> 
> **Cons**: Some of the features are still a bit cumbersome to use and with new updates I'm sure that will be addressed. Like the dashboard needs to offer more information that one can fill in. Some of the reports need refining like the task report. I'd also like to see more visual/graphics in my page to make it easier to have a big picture look. If possible to add a place on tasks to communicate to each other about the progress and a chat between all users.
> 
> I like the fact that my team have more clarity and are aligned towards the company's goals. The simplicity of is a major plus in the team quickly taking to it.

### "Align" — 5.0/5

> **Jo** | *25 November 2022* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's seamless integration with the principles of Scaling Up
> 
> **Cons**: Very happy with the produce, nothing to comment here
> 
> Excellent, the customer service is exceptional, particularly accommodating with significant differences in time zones

### "Align Does Exactly What Its Name Suggests - Aligns the Organization" — 4.0/5

> **Amanda** | *19 January 2021* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Align is easy to use and helps keep our teams and company aligned. I really like the priorities and task functionality. The daily and weekly huddles help our team to be more productive and transparent in our day-to-day operations.
> 
> **Cons**: Reporting could be more robust such as including a report for Weekly Huddles. Task functions could be more robust as well with enabling more customization on repeating tasks such as selecting/de-selecting weekends, more easy to understand guidelines on the different types of priorities and child priorities. It was a bit confusing on which one to use, so maybe offering examples would be beneficial. A new user video may be helpful for new hires which provides them an overview of how to utilize the system at a high level. This would be a great tool to push out to new users for training purposes.&#10;&#10;For purposes of the administrator functionality, it would be great to see an option to search the daily huddles/weekly huddles when needing to make updates/adjustments. We have alot of huddles, so this would save me time from scrolling.
> 
> I've enjoyed my experience with Align. It helps me to stay on task and continuously look forward to the work week, month, etc. with a proactive approach.
