Archbee Reviews & Product Details

It is extremely powerful and versatile. You can use it as a note taking app, as a wiki resource center, as a project management app, or whatever you want. And it is super fast and effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Only thing I’m not impressed with is that I sometimes encounter small bugs with the editor. For example, the colour picker just doesn’t work as expected. But that’s really a minor issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Archbee is a super helpful way to organize things for my business and keep track of things. It's convenient. I like how easy it is to login. Nowadays, a wiki is almost mandatory for any business, and I'm happy with my decision to get a wiki early on in the making of my company.

I got an Archbee account at the start of my business, and it's been a great way for me to document things for myself, and eventually others as well so that I can hopefully scale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Initially, there was a bug where if you typed too fast, the letters would get jumbled up. I think that issue has since been fixed though--I've not seen it for a while.

Also, I'm a heavy user of the /code box, and the default language it always starts out on JavaScript...but any time I'm writing code, it's almost *always* writing either SQL or shell. It would be nice to be able to pick one of those as my default programming language so I don't have to change that box every time....just something to help speed up my documentation process.

Other than that, I'm pretty much generally happy with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very easy to use, and it is perfect for team working. I can say it has all the functionality we need, including tools for diagrams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At the moment, there is nothing I don't like about Archbee. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Working with Archbee is swift and intuitive. The interface is as minimalistic as possible in order to allow for the maximum amount of screen real estate, while still being easy to handle and accessible to the experienced user. What makes it stand out versus other solutions is its block level implementation of structured information bits, such as code snippets, API calls, external media (such as images, YouTube videos and lots more), and diagrams, or even external documents from Google Docs, AirTable or Figma). Then, there’s lightning fast search across the whole workspace to make it even more useful along with a simple set of keyboard shortcuts and menu selections.

If there’s one thing that might be missing (as of this moment), it might be the lack of import or migration options from other tools or SaaS platforms out there. Some users say they would wish for such options to make the switch to Archbee easier. But we're pretty confident that the very active development team will add some migration tools rather sooner than later. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

extremely easy to manage tool to create knowledge base or wikis, in one word, simplicity at its best. You can create nested page in a typical wiki style that you can share with one or more clients or coworkers. The edit tool also works kinda flawlessly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

nothing so far, it definitely fits the purpose. As with all web applications nowadays, it can sometimes take a while for changes to appear on screen, but nothing that a page refresh wouldn't fix. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The content editor, the integrations, the possibility to customize the appearance, the speed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be really nice to have a mobile application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a great space for accessing "knowledge" (as oppose to files) on one single web portal, without sending files around for version updates.

What attracted me was its diagram widgets that provides the content creator the tools to make nice technical diagrams right on archbee without using another tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The simplicity comes with a trade off.

I create a lot of technical powerpoint content and hence am very picky about styles and representation.

Since archbee is web portal based, it won't be as easy to edit as Word when you want to add some style or fine tune the document's look and feel. All documents on archbee look like a spec. This might have improved with its app version, which I haven't tried.

Since my primary interest is in creating diagrams that could easily be shared with technical members, the ability to use popular powerpoint icons is crucial. And I found this is still limiting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has an easy-to-use block-based writing experience that gives you the "Medium.com" experience while writing documentation. But don't get me wrong … it has many more blocks than the mentioned service. Furthermore, you can add your CNAME meaning domain to point to each document(s) and that makes it really neat and white-labeled for that matter (if you need that). It is also good to know that I can onboard more co-writers at any point if the need arises or a project has more than one stakeholder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

To be honest, there is not much to dislike. The main concern is like with all "young" companies the longevity and viability of the product. As this tool fills a strong and growing need in the software markets I am confident that this business will grow. On the other hand I lost many of hours of work once with a blogging service that shut down overnight and since I need to see great export functions in SaaS-Tools that manage my intellectual property. There are export options as Markdown, PDF … I'd like to see direct integration with GitHub and publishing to repositories. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Having a place to store permanent documents. Archbee has also been crucial for onboarding documents. It is also very user-friendly and does not require much time to learn how to use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lack of automation and lack of features that save me time. Archbee does its job so it gets a B+ but features that differentiate it from other wiki providers would push it to the A category. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Prior to using Archbee, we had all our policy and procedure stored on a network drive. Nothing could ever be found and keep it all up-to-date was nearly impossible. We slowly moved everything onto Archbee and we made use of the custom URL. It’s so easy to onboard new staff. We give them the password and leave them to it. Editing the content is very easy and there are a lot of options to customise the text. We are very happy with Archbee. This has resulted in only enhancing our knowledge base by making things clearer for our staff. Superb tool! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't really have any issues with the system. I will say it took a little while to get to know the interface but once you do you it doesn't take long to start to generate content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
