I like that Haystack is pretty easy to use and fairly clear. The search function works pretty well for me, which is important because I use it to find answers to my specific questions quickly. It's also seamless for me in coordinating tasks, as it appears as a login button on my main landing page for HR. This makes it very easy for me to coordinate things, like figuring out health care information or applying for leave. Overall, it's been pretty useful for accessing employee-related resources and coordinating leave processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The loading time's a little slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that it's a very appealing and user friendly intranet space for company employees. Sharepoint was useable but was in no way a good hub to hop in and see current events and employee profiles. Haystack provides a sense of polish that is good at providing communications, org charts, and a general hub for folks to use to access different important aspects for the company. We needed an all in one hub for employees to easily access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Grouping from Azure can be a bit confusing but otherwise it works, it could be just how we have it set up as well. Otherwise, it does what it needs to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that Haystack keeps me connected to my job at Our Lady of the Valley. I appreciate that I can quickly access company policies related to CSM senior living management. I like how the platform shows all the different employee members and lets you do shout-outs, share information with fellow employees, and see anniversary and birth dates, which is really nice. You can even create a profile picture. The application constantly keeps me communicating and involved with my coworkers, which is a big advantage given it's tied to my second job.

Searching for policies is a little more difficult. It's not very user friendly just to go to find a specific policy. I think policies should be an option of its own and in the main menu drop down list. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that I can access more RISE attributes in one location without having to navigate different areas. The layout and ease of use of Haystack are appealing to me, and I'm able to see updates easily and navigate smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The search field seems to be vague. I've tried to search for specific things and ended up having to navigate the site instead. It works for a lot of areas, but there are some where it doesn't narrow down enough. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like how our company utilizes this as a centralized communication tool and a way to keep up with internal department updates along with a better way to connect with fellow coworkers on a deeper level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The downsides originallly were people not utilizing the platform enough, but we have really leveraged this tool and love to see how we can all stay up to date with company changes and communications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Our transition to Haystack has been a smooth and rewarding experience. The platform is very easy to use and has significantly improved how we access and manage information. I appreciate having all of our documents, applications, and contact directories consolidated in one central location. The way the information is displayed is both clean and engaging, which makes navigating the intranet feel effortless. I also value the thoughtful features such as work anniversary and birthday highlights, which help foster a stronger sense of community. Since our team is spread across different regions, Haystack has helped us feel more connected and in sync, even from a distance. Overall, it has enhanced both our productivity and our team culture.

At this time, I have not encountered anything I genuinely dislike about Haystack. The platform has been intuitive, reliable, and well-organized. If anything, I would simply say that as we continue using it, I’m open to providing feedback if any areas for improvement arise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Haystack to be user-friendly, which is something I really appreciate. I love the ability to create groups so that specific information can be shared with targeted audiences rather than company-wide. It allows me to complete tasks in one location, avoiding the need to switch between different platforms. The initial setup was very easy, and overall, I find it a useful tool for ensuring all employees are aware of important updates, events, and employee milestones.

Currently, without the AI search feature enabled, employees have trouble locating information within Haystack, which leads to frequent questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate how user-friendly Haystack is, making it easy for me to navigate and utilize its various functions. I enjoy the hosting of events feature as it allows me to input the exact date and time, making coordination across our entire company seamless. The ability to create private groups is another aspect I like because it ensures that I can share specific information with designated teams, maintaining privacy and relevancy in communications. Additionally, the initial setup of Haystack was fairly easy, and it was impressive how quickly everyone in the company adapted to it, demonstrating its intuitive design. This ease of use and comprehensive functionality makes Haystack a valuable resource for our company, contributing to my decision to rate it a 10 out of 10 for recommendation.

I wish that it was a bit easier to use on my phone. It's not as easy to post or create events on a phone as it is on a computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like how easy Haystack is to use and I find the platform to be very eye-appealing. It's the first thing I look at in the morning to find upcoming information for our organization. The initial setup was pretty easy from what I know, making it convenient to get started. I also haven't encountered anything that needs improvement so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
