Excellent</span></span></div><p>Hive — one of the <a href="https://www.commquer.com/project-management-for-digital-agencies/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">best project management software for digital agencies</a> — certainly isn’t lacking in features, and its software is built in a way that lets you choose which features you want and which ones you want to leave behind. Hive boasts <a href="https://hive.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">an impressive free plan</a>, which is sure to keep single users happy. </p><p>Let’s break down what each of the three Hive plans has to offer.</p><h3 class="wp-block-heading" data-nav="hidden" class="wp-block-heading" data-nav="hidden" id="free-plan-features">Free Plan Features</h3><p>When it comes to free plans, most services like to keep features to a minimum, hoping to lure you into one of their paid subscriptions. Hive takes a different approach, and its Solo plan offers several tools including a <a href="https://www.commquer.com/how-to-use-a-gantt-chart/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Gantt chart</a>, <a href="https://www.commquer.com/how-to-use-a-kanban-board/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">kanban </a><a href="https://www.commquer.com/how-to-use-a-kanban-board/">board</a> and native calendar.</p><figure itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/ImageObject" class="figure text-center full full" data-id="63903"><picture><source srcset="https://www.commquer.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Hive-free-plan-features.webp" type="image/webp" /><source srcset="https://www.commquer.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Hive-free-plan-features.png" media="(min-width: 1400px)" /><source srcset="https://www.commquer.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Hive-free-plan-features-800x546.png" media="(min-width: 400px)" /><source srcset="https://www.commquer.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Hive-free-plan-features-680x464.png" media="(min-width: 200px)" /><img decoding="async" width="800" height="546" loading="lazy" class="landscape" src="https://www.commquer.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Hive-free-plan-features-800x546.png" alt="hive free plan features" title="hive-free-plan-features"><figcaption itemprop="caption"><div class="caption">Hive’s free plan is full of features to help with project planning.</div></figcaption></figure><p>That’s not all: Free users can create forms through the form builder too. It’s also possible to automate workflows for those niggly tasks you have to do, but never want to, such as creating subtasks and assigning tasks to users.</p><p>Hive’s Solo plan provides a native inbuilt messaging system to allow you to communicate with other users. Like similar chat tools such as Slack, you can share files and integrate <a href="https://www.commquer.com/review/google-drive/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Google Drive</a> for file sharing. There’s also a native email client that you can link to either a Microsoft or Google account.</p><p>With anything free, there are always limitations. In this case, it’s that the Solo plan only allows up to two users, making it a no-go for teams. There’s no access to native or third-party integration tools either. </p><h3 class="wp-block-heading" data-nav="hidden" class="wp-block-heading" data-nav="hidden" id="hive-teams-features">Hive Teams Features</h3><p>With the Team’s plan, you can add unlimited team members to an account. It has all the features of the free plan including the to-do list, a condensed view of all active projects and the option to export project baselines as spreadsheets.</p><figure itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/ImageObject" class="figure text-center full full" data-id="63912"><picture><source srcset="https://www.commquer.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/hive-time-tracking-tools.webp" type="image/webp" /><source srcset="https://www.commquer.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/hive-time-tracking-tools.png" media="(min-width: 1400px)" /><source srcset="https://www.commquer.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/hive-time-tracking-tools-800x500.png" media="(min-width: 400px)" /><source srcset="https://www.commquer.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/hive-time-tracking-tools-680x425.png" media="(min-width: 200px)" /><img decoding="async" width="800" height="500" loading="lazy" class="landscape" src="https://www.commquer.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/hive-time-tracking-tools-800x500.png" alt="hive time tracking tools" title="hive-time-tracking-tools"><figcaption itemprop="caption"><div class="caption">Hive offers several paid add-ons, including tools to track time.</div></figcaption></figure><p>Beyond extra users, those on the Team’s plan gain access to flexible add-ons, which let you select custom integrations for your workflow. Each user can track the time it takes to complete a task, and assign task owners to approve time tracking forms and task completion.</p><p>Analytical tools are available to give those who own projects a bird’s-eye view of overdue tasks for each user. You can view the project status on the same page, helping you learn how well the project is moving forward.</p><p>In addition to add-ons, the middle-tier Teams plan opens the door to third-party software integrations. There aren’t many integrations — unlike monday.com, which has over 200. Hive has just five: Jira Software, Salesforce, Slack, Zapier and Zoom for video conferencing.</p><h3 class="wp-block-heading" data-nav="hidden" class="wp-block-heading" data-nav="hidden" id="hive-enterprise-features">Hive Enterprise Features</h3><p>Not much differentiates the Teams and Enterprise plans in terms of features. The main differences are that the paid add-ons are incorporated into the Enterprise monthly subscription price. </p><p>There’s also a deeper level of customer service, thanks to a dedicated technical support team that’s available 24/7. The project owner can also add external users to keep them up to date on the development of a project.</p><div class="cws-compare-table"><table><thead><tr><th></th><th><div><a target="_blank"

In the world of project management tools, it’s not the <a href="https://www.commquer.com/best-gantt-chart-software/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">best Gantt chart software</a> — that title belongs to TeamGantt (read our <a href="https://www.commquer.com/teamgantt-review/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TeamGantt review</a>); however, it’s up there with some of the better ones.</p><p>The same is true with the kanban board view of your project and tasks. We were able to add as many sections as our project needed and created infinite subtasks on each card, while adding a start and due date. Chatting inside tasks is possible through the comments section and, again, Hive is doing all the right things in terms of design and functionality.</p><figure itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/ImageObject" class="figure text-center full full" data-id="63905"><picture><source srcset="https://www.commquer.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Hive-instant-messaging-.webp" type="image/webp" /><source srcset="https://www.commquer.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Hive-instant-messaging-.png" media="(min-width: 1400px)" /><source srcset="https://www.commquer.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Hive-instant-messaging--800x550.png" media="(min-width: 400px)" /><source srcset="https://www.commquer.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Hive-instant-messaging--680x467.png" media="(min-width: 200px)" /><img decoding="async" width="800" height="550" loading="lazy" class="landscape" src="https://www.commquer.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Hive-instant-messaging--800x550.png" alt="hive instant messaging" title="Hive-instant-messaging"><figcaption itemprop="caption"><div class="caption">Each team member can send direct messages through Hive messenger. </div></figcaption></figure><p>Project managers will tell you that communication is key to any successful project.

The communications tool will make working on collaborative projects easy to do, and the ability to include external members is perfect for client-facing businesses. </p><p>The sad truth is that Hive lets itself down with privacy and its lack of value for money. Granted, it’s not the only project management software to score low on privacy. Although that’s not the point, Hive should hold itself to a higher standard when it comes to protecting user data, and for us, the current standards are too low.</p><p>While our initial thought that Hive could be a power player in the playground, it’s become apparent that it was only masquerading as one of the cool kids. Should it improve on its flaws, it one day could become popular. Until then, we suggest you go with one of the more tried-and-tested options.</p><p>What do you think of Hive? Does the privacy policy concern you? Which other tools would you like us to review? Let us know in the comments.
