Great online engagement platform, well designed with easy to use features **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Christina F. | Communities Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 13, 2024 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** Lovely design and lots of easy to use features. Our users have barely accessed the how-to guides we developed because it's all very intuitive. In the backoffice, you're able to customise a good amount and the new analytics dashboards are really helpful. We also feel well supported by our account manager. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** The downside to any big platform with lots of clients is that they can't implement every request from clients, particularly ones that may be niche. It can be frustrating not knowing whether a request that's deemed feedback will be actioned or not. With that said, when we identified that one of the standard features of the mobile app would be very problematic for us because of how we've structured our groups, Hivebrite recognised the impact of this and developed a patch just for us, which we were thrilled about. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Members can now directly connect with one another, and our member-led communities have spaces to connect, discuss, network, collaborate and share. None of this was possible without Hivebrite, and the support we were able to offer our member-led communities was very admin heavy for us. As an organisation we're also now better able to engage with members and understand their needs, as well as better understand the topics and issues affecting the profession we represent. A year-on, and so much of our organisations' work is supported by the platform. **Official Response from Jacqueline Le:** > Hello Christine, I would like to thank you on behalf of the whole team for this great review! Customer satisfaction means everything to us and we are thrilled to hear that you are happy with our community engagement platform. We are committed to creating the best community engagement platform to meet and exceed your expectations. If ever you have a suggestion, idea, or feedback on how we can further support you, please don’t hesitate to reach out through Hivebrite Community. Thank you again! Jacqueline from Hivebrite Team ### 2. Great Private Social Feed for Sharing Info, but Implementation Takes Time **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Krista W. | Media and Branding Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 05, 2026 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** I like that it is a private social media since we are not a company who uses any other social media. It allows us to disseminate information to a group we created without using email or other methods. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** The implementation is long, and it requires a lot of babysitting. We don't have the staff to fully appreciate the features. It is also somewhat inconvenient that they don't have a robust US team, so most of our questions need to wait 24 hours to be answered due to time zone differences. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** It is helping us solve a need that our customers wanted to be able to communicate with each other via a social media network, but we wanted to control the medium on which they do that. ### 3. Intuitive Platform with Excellent Support, Initial Setup Challenging **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Sofía A. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 29, 2026 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** I like that the user experience of Hivebrite is intuitive and similar to other platforms. It recently incorporated new tools that might be useful in the near future. The synced Zoom registry recently added will allow us to track which members attend most events and which register to participate and then don't show up. I would recommend Hivebrite's customer support, I'd give it a 10, and Xavier, our Manager of Customer Success, also gets a 10. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** The backoffice could be simpler and hold, for example, the 'Community - Users' settings next to the 'Settings and Administration - User settings' menu. The same happens with the navigation settings' sub-tags, which are confusing and force you to come back and forth. The statistics are also disseminated across different spaces and it would be good to be able to manage them altogether (currently you need to use the users filters to extract those missing in the 'Analytics' section). The first phase was complicated, took longer than expected and we soon realized that many things that were promised during the sales phase weren't actually possible. This was reverted later with our Manager of Customer Success and the technical support team providing different shortcuts to help us do what we had in mind. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite collects updated data of active members and gathers all opportunities and communications for users. **Official Response from Jacqueline Le:** > Hello Sofia, Thank you on behalf of the whole team for this great review, especially for our Customer Success team. Customer satisfaction means everything to us and we are thrilled to hear that you are happy with our community engagement platform. We are committed to creating the best community engagement platform to meet and exceed your expectations. If ever you have a suggestion, idea, or feedback on how we can further support you, please don’t hesitate to reach out through Hivebrite Community. Thank you again! Jacqueline ### 4. Effortless Community Management with Stellar Support **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Daniele V. | Senior Programme Officer | EMBO Fellowship Programme, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 29, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** I like that Hivebrite is easy to handle, with a nice interface that's also user-friendly in the back office. It offers a lot of options to tweak, and I appreciate how there are always new releases and options popping up, which keeps the platform constantly growing with new possibilities. The support is great, and I have regular meetings with them every second or third month, where they really take care of their customers. They keep engaging us and push us to work with the platform and improve how we use it. I find the initial setup to be quite easy and intuitive, as you don't need special IT training, which is something I really appreciate. It's easy to understand but still very powerful, with a lot of options to personalize different pages. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** Currently I do not have that I do not like **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite makes communication with our fellows easier, reducing emails and saving time. It lets our network connect, sharing ideas and creating community. Bottom line, it frees a lot of time for us, and allows our fellows to talk to each other in a very easy way. **Official Response from Jacqueline Le:** > Hello Daniele, Thank you on behalf of the whole team for this great review! Customer satisfaction means everything to us and we are thrilled to hear that you are happy with our community engagement platform. We are committed to creating the best community engagement platform to meet your expectations. If ever you have a suggestion, idea, or feedback on how we can further support you, please don’t hesitate to reach out through Hivebrite Community. Thank you again! Jacqueline and Hivebrite Team ### 5. Versatile, visually appealing, and user-friendly **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Martin O. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 23, 2026 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** I like the versatility and sophistication of Hivebrite while maintaining predominantly intuitive use. The various modules offer a comprehensive and visually appealing representation of the respective purposes, whether it be news, events, and custom pages, as well as interactive features like posts, forums, or member directories. The structured presentation helps users to navigate well, even if they belong to multiple sub-communities and switch between them. Additionally, personalized feeds and update emails help users find relevant content more easily. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** One of the main challenges seems to be that the respective frontends (web & app) keep up with the technical possibilities, but continuous work is being done on this. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite connects our members regardless of travel, provides a central communication channel, and supports the promotion of activities. The various modules enable a comprehensive presentation and help users find relevant content through personalized feeds and update emails. **Official Response from Jacqueline Le:** > Hello Martin! Thank you on behalf of the whole team for this 9! Customer satisfaction means everything to us and we are thrilled to see the impact. We are committed to creating the best community engagement platform to meet your expectations. If ever you have a suggestion, idea, or feedback on how we can further support you, please don’t hesitate to reach out through Hivebrite Community. Thank you again! Jacqueline ### 6. Strong Community & Event Management, but Salesforce Integration Needs Work **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Sevyn W. | Director of Operations & Special Projects, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 29, 2026 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** Our organization needed a platform to both support communication amongst our membership and serve as a platform for managing events, and Hivebrite has been able to fill both roles. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** The biggest challenges we've faced are 1) integration with Salesforce, which has not been as smooth and reliable as we need, and 2) because it Hivebrite is not an event specific platform, while it can do most of what we need, there are some limitations in its functionality. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** The biggest problem is getting our members access to info and a place to connect that is user friendly, and for the most part our members find the platform easily navigable. **Official Response from Jacqueline Le:** > Hello Sevyn, We appreciate your review and feedback. At Hivebrite, we strive for much higher satisfaction from our customers and would love the opportunity to better understand how we can improve your experience. I know you work closely with our Customer Success Team so don't hesitate to give all feedbacks so we can make improvements to bring this score to a 10! Thank you again for your feedback and we look forward to connecting soon. Jacqueline ### 7. Customisable Functions for a Perfectly Tailored Experience **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Charlie P. | Director of Communications, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 23, 2026 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** The customisable functions let me create a more tailored experience, depending on my audience’s needs. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** There is very little we would say we dislike as an organisation. Being able to translate comments and conversations on the platform would be helpful for our global audience, although this may already be a feature that we simply can’t afford to add to our package as a small charity. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** The Hivebrite platform allows our audience members to connect with one another, share ideas, learn critical skills peer-to-peer, and gain the clarity they seek from a global community of like-minded people. **Official Response from Jacqueline Le:** > Hello Charlie, Thank you for this great review on G2 (and sorry as it took me a few days to reply). Customer satisfaction means everything to us, and we're thrilled that you are happy with the tools and services that Hivebrite is providing. Reviews like yours help more people find Hivebrite to power their community and we're grateful for your continued partnership. If ever you have a suggestion, idea, or feedback on how we can further support you, please don’t hesitate to reach out through Hivebrite Community. Thank you again! Jacqueline ### 8. “A Powerful Community Platform That Centralizes and Elevates Engagement” **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** leo l. | Director of Operations, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 03, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** One of the best features of Hivebrite is its all-in-one functionality, which allows us to manage community engagement, events, content, and member data from a single platform. The customization options—such as creating groups, resource libraries, and targeted communication workflows—make it easy to tailor the experience to our members' needs. Most importantly, Hivebrite helps us foster real connection and collaboration between entrepreneurs and business support organizations without needing to juggle multiple disconnected tools. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** While Hivebrite offers strong functionality, some areas of the platform feel unintuitive or require extra steps for basic tasks like content formatting, segmenting audiences, or customizing layouts. The user interface can be overwhelming for new members, which may discourage them from exploring or engaging fully. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite is solving our need for a centralized, customizable platform where we can connect entrepreneurs, business support organizations, and ecosystem partners in a private, purposeful digital space. It helps streamline onboarding, content delivery, event promotion, and peer-to-peer engagement without needing to manage multiple tools or platforms. As a result, we’re able to build community trust and deliver targeted value to members while saving time and operational resources on backend management. ### 9. Highly customizable and feature-rich community platform with great customer support **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jo P. | Co-Chair, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 31, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** Hivebrite offers powerful built-in modules that make it easy to create a highly functional community with advanced features. For an off-the-shelf solution, its level of customization is impressive and highly appealing. The Members Map and the searchable Members database are standout features, addressing our community’s need for networking in a way that is both engaging and intuitive. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** There is nothing I particularly dislike about Hivebrite. While it does demand a significant investment of time, this is not a drawback overall. Rather, it reflects the platform's extensive functionality and the wide range of customizable features it offers. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite has addressed the challenge of peer-to-peer networking and resource sharing within our community. Previously, as a diverse and global network brought together by a shared purpose, our information exchange was often restricted to a few individuals who acted as central communication points. The clear need for members to securely and easily connect, find, and share information with one another was the main reason we chose to establish our online community using Hivebrite. ### 10. Straightforward Migration to Hivebrite with Intuitive UI and Excellent Support **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 17, 2026 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** We custom built a community platform eight years ago when there was nothing on the market to meet our needs. We have now migrated to Hivebrite, which provides us with the same (but better!) features and functions, plus a lot more. The migration to Hivebrite was straightforward and the support we received, and continue to receive, has been excellent. Both the user interface and admin interface are intuitive and we love we can customise with our own branding. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** So far, we haven't had any issues and it is meeting our needs. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite enables us to provide a platform for research collaboration and networking, which is critical in the field we work in as it is relatively small. **Official Response from Jacqueline Le:** > Hi, I would like to thank you on behalf of the whole team for this great review! Customer satisfaction means everything to us and we are thrilled to hear that you are happy with our community engagement platform. We are committed to creating the best community engagement platform to meet and exceed your expectations. If ever you have a suggestion, idea, or feedback on how we can further support you, please don’t hesitate to reach out through Hivebrite Community. Thank you again! Jacqueline ### 11. Exceptional Support and Easy Platform Building with Hivebrite **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Imani W. | Founder and CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 16, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** Everything! It was so easy to build our platform in Hivebrite. They've truly built a product designed for community engagement and success. The Hivebrite team is so helpful and attentive to their client's needs and platform vision. Brittaney Shade was amazing and very considerate of our vision when setting up our account and Albert Choute was the best person to lead our onboarding program, giving us step by step guidance and exceptional solutions to every obstacle that came up. It's obvious that they really do care about making elevated online engagement experiences for all of their clients. My team and I use our Hivebrite platform everyday to add more content, communicate in the direct message feature, and build the best experience for our members. It was also really easy to integrate external forms from our main website and to implement various features within the platform. Thank you for making our experience memorable and stress-free! **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** If there were one area of improvement, is that there are some site formatting challenges when using our font on the site. We've encountered formatting issues on the menu bar and in certain text boxes while using our brand font, but once I raised this concern, Albert Choute communicated our concern to the software development team and they immediately started working on finding a solution. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** We were trying to build our own online community platform for our members, but didn't know where to start. Thankfully we came across Hivebrite's services and requested a demo. After meeting with Brittaney Shade for the demo, we knew we had to signup. The platform already has the infrastructure and capabilities that we envisioned, but weren't equipped to build. After a couple of weeks onboarding with Albert Choute, we were able to make our dream a reality. Now we have the perfect ecosystem for our members to grow and thrive in community. ### 12. Good tool and perfect support **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jaime V. | IT Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 07, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** Hivebrite consolidates everything into one platform—member directories, events, content, jobs, and messaging. Admins can manage all community interactions from a single place rather than juggling multiple tools. Customizable Branding & User Experience Users love how flexible it is in terms of branding. You can make your platform look and feel like your organization’s own ecosystem, not just another generic community hub. Strong Admin Controls & Automation Administrators get detailed segmentation tools, workflows, and analytics. This helps automate onboarding, communications, and engagement campaigns, saving time while improving member experience. Member Engagement Features Hivebrite offers native features for forums, private messaging, events, and job boards. These make it easy for members to connect, collaborate, and stay active — especially valuable for professional or alumni networks. Analytics & Reporting The analytics dashboard gives actionable insights into community health, engagement, and growth trends, helping managers make data-driven decisions. Integrations & API It integrates with CRMs, payment systems, and marketing tools, making it adaptable to existing tech stacks. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** It’s a powerful platform, but it can feel complex at first — the setup and customization take time, and some features require a learning curve to use effectively. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite solves the challenge of managing a large, diverse community by bringing events, communication, and member data together in one platform. It helps strengthen connections, streamline engagement, and save time through automation and centralized management. ### 13. Hivebrite: A Great Home for Our Global Leadership Community **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nada Z. | Global Network Lead, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 18, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** Hivebrite has given our global leadership community a true home over the last 3 years. So many users take advantage of the robust People directory literally every single day (along with sharing wide-ranging updates on our Live Feed daily). As admins, we also love the rich and easy-to-navigate backend dashboards to understand what's happening in our community in many different ways. And this year, we've seen huge benefits from the Orbiit AI-powered matchmaking integration, to help us reach and engage many users in a light-touch and low-lift way for both us and them. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** Some app updates have taken time to come in the past, and some of our global users in low bandwidth environments have reported issues. It also took some time for a polling feature to be enabled, but it now exists. The team is always helpful and responsive and overall we are very happy with Hivebrite as the home for our global community and look forward to continue sustaining our member engagement there. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite helps us solve the dual problems of staying in touch with the members of our lifelong alumni community over time (even as they go through different seasons of work and life), while also giving us a wide range of tools to foster their continued engagement with our program/mission and with each other. ### 14. Effortless Communication, Stellar Support **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Summer H. | Marketing and Advertising, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 10, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** I like Hivebrite's efficiency and how easy it is to use, making it simple to learn and teach. The app itself is super slick. The support chat has been really helpful, and any problems we've had have been dealt with quickly. Importing people is simple, and it easily connects with sheets and outside URLs. Accessing performance data is very insightful and useful. I've also found the support page with countless advice blogs very useful, along with my direct contact at Hivebrite. The setup process was smooth, thanks to the great support from our contact at Hivebrite who helped us transition flawlessly, including aligning the platform with our rebrand. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** I have experienced some small bugs, like messages not coming through. It happened over a week where messages flashed as notifications but couldn't be found in personal DMs. However, these issues were dealt with quickly. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite centralizes communication, reducing reliance on emails and calls. It streamlines messaging, asset uploads, event organization, and email campaigns for over 1000 ambassadors, making it efficient and simplifying processes. ### 15. Easy to Use and helped us manage and build our community **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Gussy H. | Co Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 08, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** I like Hivebrite for its easy site building once you get the hang of it. It's fairly quick and easy to keep building or amending the site, which is convenient. I also appreciate the easy payment setup and how straightforward it is to view payments. Adding and sharing events is quick too, and I really like the great member directory they offer. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** The initial support to build the site is limited with your guide essentially sending you digital resources and hoping those are enough to teach you. We found we did have to push quite hard to get extra support. The build options, whilst easy, are also very prescriptive and inflexible, but I guess that's why it's so quick to build your site. It is also slow to reach the help team who sort bugs or issues - they can only be contacted by submitting a ticket and will then email you back in a few days. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use Hivebrite for managing our member base, taking payments, and sharing events seamlessly. It offers an easy site build, simple payment setup, and a great member directory, making it valuable for our community. ### 16. Good tool with good support **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Dimitra P. | Global Talent Assistant Manager, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 03, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** What we like best about Hivebrite is the overall social functionalities and community-driven feel of the platform. They've truly built a product designed for community engagement and success. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** It’s a powerful platform, but it can feel complex at first - the setup and customization take time, and some features require a learning curve to use effectively. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite has allowed us to bring our entire alumni community together on a single, cohesive platform. Rather than managing multiple tools, we now have one central space where we can communicate, engage, and support our alumni more effectively. Everything-from events and updates to networking opportunities and member insights-sits in one place, making it easier for our team to deliver a consistent experience and for alumni to stay connected with us and with each other. Most importantly, Hivebrite provides a seamless, professional environment that reflects the strength of our alumni network and helps us maintain meaningful relationships long after colleagues move on to the next stage of their careers. ### 17. Efficient Networking with Stellar Support **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 26, 2026 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** I love how responsive they are at Hivebrite and how quickly they help with issues. Plus, especially for Orbiit, I appreciate how fast their iterations of improvements are. The setup was very easy and thoughtfully done, and I was walked through the whole process by an account manager, which I enjoyed. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** Up to now I have had no issues! It has been so easy. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite (Orbiit) allows me to quickly connect hundreds of people without doing it one by one, and provides a smart platform using AI for matching. ### 18. Clean UX/UI and Responsive Developer and Customer Support Teams **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Katherine K. | Co-Founder and CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 23, 2021 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** We’ve been so impressed with Hivebrite’s commitment to improvement and how receptive they are to client feedback. Their support team is incredibly responsive, and their customer success team continually helps us find new ways to increase engagement. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** Like any evolving platform, there are areas Hivebrite could refine, such as deeper customization and more a la carte offerings only provided to enterprise level clients, but what sets them apart is their responsiveness. Whenever we reach out, their team quickly finds a solution and ensures our needs are met. **Recommendations to others considering Hivebrite:** Hivebrite is definitely more attractive, more agile and scalable than other membership platforms I considered, and more budget-friendly. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are creating a community made up of communities for companies and organizations serving our military veterans. Platform is easy to use and so less savvy admins can control their groups with ease. **Official Response from Spencer Dorcik:** > Hi Katherine, Spencer here, Director of Marketing at Hivebrite. I would like to thank you on behalf of the team for this wonderful review! Customer satisfaction means everything to us and we always love hearing from clients that are satisfied with our community engagement platform. We especially love that you're finding the platform easy to use and that you're able to organize for such an important cause. We are committed to creating the best community engagement platform to meet and exceed your expectations.

Thank you again! ### 19. We using Hivebrite for our partner universities to organize their alumni community and database **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Balazs K. | Co-CEO & Co-Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 10, 2024 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** Over the past year, we’ve continued working with Hivebrite across several partner universities, and one thing we’ve really appreciated is how stable and reliable the platform has remained even as our communities have grown significantly. The improvements to the event management workflow and RSVP handling have made our alumni events easier to organize, and the member directory search feels faster and more accurate than before. We also like the new customization options for pages and blocks, which give us more flexibility when building university-branded alumni experiences. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** While the platform works very well overall, there are still a few areas where development would make a big difference for our university partners. Most importantly, payment integrations are still limited in some European countries — adding broader support (for example SimplePay or OTP integration for Hungary) would help institutions manage paid events and donations more efficiently. We would also welcome deeper analytics options, especially multi-community dashboards for consultants like us who manage several universities at once. Finally, a more streamlined way to automate multilingual content would be very helpful for campuses with large international alumni bases. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite has been instrumental in solving key challenges such as database management, community engagement, and event organization. The platform provides an efficient way to maintain and update alumni databases, ensuring accurate and accessible information for all stakeholders. Additionally, it supports community management by fostering meaningful connections among alumni through its intuitive networking features. Finally, Hivebrite simplifies event organization with built-in tools for planning, promoting, and managing alumni events, making it an invaluable resource for maintaining an active and vibrant alumni community.

Modern, User-Friendly Platform with Outstanding Support **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 06, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** The user interface is easy to naviagte with a modern feel. We implementated this over a year ago and the set up was nice and easy, the support team were fantastic and they are quick to respond and help. We use this every day and we are encouraging our community to do the same, Hivebrite has a range of functionality that is allowing us to provide more of a one-stop shop for engagement. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** I would say the one downside if the extent of options within events. For us the one challenge is the ability to easily run a series of events for a group. It is still quite a bit of work for the users to register for all events in a series. This is the only thing that holds us back. The rest is great! **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** We have a wide sector network who we provide a space for that will enable them to share knowledge and insights and help them to solve challenges and source ideas that can help them work more effectively as an organization. ### 21. Streamlined Alumni Engagement, Backend Needs Improvement **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Chiara C. **Reviewed Date:** November 05, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** I appreciate Hivebrite's professional appearance and the ability to adapt the platform to our branding, which has proven to be very successful. The feedback from our users emphasizes that the platform is inviting and easy to use, which is crucial for user engagement. We successfully simplified the user journey to activate accounts, resulting in many new users joining the platform. There's also a high number of recurrent users returning to the platform even without an ongoing email campaign. This demonstrates the platform's effectiveness in engaging users and communicating the new alumni network concept, especially within our first year of active use starting in March. Hivebrite's adaptability to branding and user-friendliness have been key in creating an attractive and functional alumni network. The support of our Customer Success Specialist Norma Pérez in planning and executing our engagement strategy has been critical for its success, especially since this is our first community building project and we started the alumni network from scratch. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** I find the backend of Hivebrite a bit cumbersome and unclear, especially when setting things up initially. This was particularly challenging last year, as some features and components are repeated or spread out in different places, making it time-consuming to organize. An improvement in backend user-friendliness would be appreciated. Additionally, while the front end looks great, certain aspects on the backend seem less adaptable, often requiring costly add-ons to function correctly. This is challenging for us as a nonprofit educational organization, impacting our budget planning. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use Hivebrite to connect our employees and alumni, simplifying user onboarding and encouraging engagement without frequent email campaigns. It's adaptable to our branding, making it inviting and easy to use for our alumni network. ### 22.

Hivebrite: ease of use and modularity at the forefront **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nicolas C. | Responsable digital, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 31, 2026 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** Easy to implement, optimal user management, simplicity of back office use, adaptability thanks to the many available modules, fast user support. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** Hivebrite has fully satisfied us.

Empowers Global Youth Engagement with Stellar Support **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Tori H. **Reviewed Date:** December 04, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** We really appreciate the Hivebrite Customer Success team. They're always incredibly responsive and helpful. We enjoy all of the features provided in the platform, including the Live Feed, Opportunities, Projects, and Events, which provide many ways to engage and support the young advocates in our community. These features allow community members to connect with one another and learn about opportunities that would allow them to grow their skillsets. The initial setup of Hivebrite was easy with the support of the staff! **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** As a small non-profit, the increasing price of using Hivebrite is a challenge for us. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite unites youth participants globally and provides a community for young ocean advocates. Its features, like Live Feed and Projects, enhance connectivity and skill growth. ### 27. Staff and solution a pefect fit. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Dean H. | Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 26, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** The staff (both Rabia and Liz) were extremely helpful to ensure that the platform was going to be fit for purpose. Customer Support were also very response when I did have an issue. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** I do not have any dislikes at this time. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** I am taking a big personal finacial risk in implementing a Hivebrite solution to replace my industries association that went into liquidation. The solution has ensured that the key functions of an online membership site are there ready to do and easy to customise. ### 28. A Supportive Platform with Room to Grow **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Quan C. | Director of Sustainability, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 02, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** In my personal experience, the customer service stands out—our account manager has been fantastic and truly supportive. I also value the opportunity to collaborate with other community managers through their own private 'user' cmty, which adds a lot of peer learning and connection. The multi-language features have been especially helpful for a global audience, and I appreciate that the company is proactive in sharing its roadmap so users have insight into what’s coming next. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** The interface could be more intuitive. That said, I recognize no single platform can meet every organization’s needs, especially without custom work (which isn’t always feasible budget-wise). The mobile app also isn’t as responsive as it could be, which sometimes limits the experience on the go. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Our community is designed to support two groups: those who want to grow their leadership skills in an open, free space, and those who deliver Blanchard’s leadership content in a private, gated area. This dual approach helps us extend learning beyond a single moment and make it more lasting and impactful. ### 29. User-Friendly Platform with Excellent Support and Features **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 05, 2026 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** The Hivebrite platform is user-friendly, with straightforward navigation that makes management simple. The trainings offered, along with the available recordings, are very helpful. The built-in features and modules also meet our needs effectively. Data integration was easy and support provided in the process was great. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** Introducing new features can be costly, and there are also limitations on certain features and customisation options. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite solves our challenge of limited alumni engagement by providing a central, accessible database. Alumni can update their profiles and connect through a user‑friendly interface, while our client and admin gain tools to analyse data and generate reports for program evaluation. ### 30. Outstanding Support **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Mental Health Care | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 12, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** The support during our customization and launch has been great- we are a small non profit with one part time employee and HB has been patient with our on boarding process and need for support **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** It is a very large expense for a non profit our size **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are at the early stages of our transition to hivebrite - the reason for the use of HB is to accommodate our membership communication and sharing of resources, referrals and knowledge which has historically been 100s of messages a day. We are on our way to seeing more engagement on the new platform and the long term benefit of the change. We have members of all levels of comfort with new technology and the ease of use has ranged as well ### 31. Great platform powering our career networking community **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Brooke D. | Director of Administration and Marketing, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 25, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** We use Hivebrite to run the Herzl Career Caravan, our career networking and mentorship community. The platform makes it easy for alumni, staff, and parents to connect, offer advice, and find opportunities. It’s intuitive to use, customizable to our brand, and backed by a responsive support team that helps us get the most out of the features. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** The reporting tools could be more streamlined, and there’s a small learning curve for admins when setting things up. Still, Hivebrite’s support team is quick to help, and the platform keeps improving, so these haven’t been major obstacles. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite is helping us create a centralized, private space for our community to connect professionally through the Herzl Career Caravan. Before Hivebrite, our alumni, staff, and parents didn’t have an easy way to find and support each other with career advice or opportunities. Now, everything is in one place—members can build profiles, search by industry, and connect for mentorship or networking. This has streamlined engagement, strengthened our alumni network, and provided meaningful career support for our summer staff. ### 32. All-in-One Platform for Seamless Community Connection **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 04, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** That allows to have all in just one place to connect our community together. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** That it requires 'another' platform that users may not want to use, as they already have Whatsapp, Facebook, Linkedin, Signal, Telegram.... **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** A very spread community around the world that would not be able to meet otherwise. Having a resources center also allows them to check materials or connect at their own pace (and compared to regular file cloud storage options if offers more interaction functionalities). Orbiit has also been a great tool to connect community members across different time zones - great kudos to Whitney for helping us along the process and making things easy! ### 33.

They've always reacted very quickly and done their very best when working with us to find solutions. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** I would love to have (even more) freedom for custimizating on the platform. There is a lot you can do, but you still have to work within the platform framework. Generally though we are happy with the different modules on the platform and the flexibility they give us. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite helps us create a subscription based community platform in which many services like events, forums and step by step guides can be implemented all in one place. ### 34.

Sandra, the sales rep, was awesome. She guided me through onboarding and was always available to help. I also appreciate the overall engagement back from some of my alumni, which the platform facilitates well. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** Sometimes the only challenges have been the time differences between where I'm located in California, where my training rep is located on the East Coast, and where my account rep is located in Paris, France. Mixed in a challenge with regards to the time zone differences. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite helps with keeping track of our alumni and keeping them engaged. ### 36. Centralizes Community Management with Ease **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Sommar C. **Reviewed Date:** December 08, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** I like that Hivebrite brings our community, events, and communications into one place.

Though I do appreciate Hivebrite's responsiveness when sending in an idea or suggestion. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Communicating to our members in a professional setting and way, allowing us to uniformly talk to our members about events, news, and allowing them to easily find and connect with each other.

When people plug back in through Hivebrite, they see clearer news and gain a stronger understanding of our current organization status. Hivebrite provides prompt and friendly customer support. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** As a smaller nonprofit, we enjoy what Hivebrite has to offer.

Relaunch **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 29, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** Reestablishing our partnership with Hivebrite and collaborating on the redesigned platform has been a real highlight. The thoughtfulness and intentionality that went into enhancing the user experience and modernizing the platform were much appreciated. The Hivebrite team has also been incredibly supportive, informative, and patient throughout the process. The team went above and beyond to ensure we had a successful launch day. We’re happy to be reconnected and excited about what this partnership makes possible. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** Early on, we experienced some challenges navigating Hivebrite because our team had previously relied on a third-party partner to manage the platform. When we reengaged directly, there was a learning curve and some uncertainty around what steps were required on our end to move into production and publish redesigned pages. In addition, because we were working with several different people over the course of a few months, it wasn’t immediately clear who our dedicated CRM contact was. That has since been clarified, and things are now much smoother. Looking ahead, we know additional training would be valuable for our team, and we’d like to establish regular check-ins with our CRM. That way, we can better understand what we don’t yet know, stay aligned on best practices, and avoid gaps moving forward. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Before reestablishing our direct partnership with Hivebrite, our existing platform had already been our central hub for members to connect, share resources, and participate in opportunities. However, the platform felt outdated and clunky, and it wasn’t particularly user-friendly. We also didn’t fully realize how outdated things were until we began working directly with the Hivebrite team. Our biggest challenge has consistently been member engagement on the platform. Because our platform is such a fundamental part of how our senior leaders across the country connect and build community, improving that experience has been critical. The redesign, paired with now having a dedicated Community Manager on our team, is helping us address that. Key problems Hivebrite is helping us solve include: 1. User Experience & Engagement – A modern, more intuitive design makes it easier for members to navigate, connect, and contribute, which we expect will drive stronger engagement. 2. Event Management – We now understand how to better streamline event management directly through the platform, which saves staff time, simplifies and upgrades the member experience. 3. Onboarding – We’ve significantly enhanced onboarding and membership engagement flows and will continue refining these to reinforce member value and reengagement. 4. Branding & Visibility – The updated design and stronger branding brings our platform in line with the quality of our broader communications and member-facing work. 5. Direct Communication/Rapid Response – The ability to notify and communicate with members in a more improved, reliable way is a major benefit for keeping the Network informed and active in real time outside of our month round up newsletters. The benefit is that our updated member platfrom now feels like the vibrant, modern community hub our leaders deserve—one that both reflects our brand and enables members to engage more meaningfully. ### 49. Building a thriving community using Hivebrite **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 12, 2025 **What do you like best about Hivebrite?** Hivebrite resembles a blend of Facebook and LinkedIn, offering comparable features and a user-friendly experience that makes it easy for newcomers to get started and use frequently. The support team is excellent, always ready to assist with anything from onboarding, implementation to technical concerns like integration with existing workflows. **What do you dislike about Hivebrite?** The pricing could use some improvement, particularly for those who are trying to grow a community. Introducing a tiered pricing model might benefit smaller communities that lack significant financial resources. **What problems is Hivebrite solving and how is that benefiting you?** Hivebrite is like a one-stop shop for communities that use a lot of tools and are fragmented. It is customizable and allows the community to be personalized. ### 50.
