MangoApps Reviews & Product Details

MangoApps is a very handy platform when it comes to collaborating with teammates. I have been using MangoApps for over a year now and it has supplemented my work immensely. It is easy to use, navigate and has a simple user interface. The subtle color scheme makes the overall intranet environment quite amiable. MangoApps has helped me stage, store and structure files that are now accessible throughout the organization. Furthermore, sending updates across the organization has kept me connected to my peers, especially in times of remote work. The directory feature helps me to connect with individuals across my organization. Lastly, for my role, MangoApps has been a boon since it catalyzes version control, file sharing, document management, brainstorming among other benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One particular thing that I do not like about MangoApps is the user interface. I believe it can be polished further to make it more intuitive. To be candid, it looks old-school. Rounded edges and some degree of interactivity will surely bump up it's usability. Since it is intranet that harbors so many employees from a particular organization, it should consist of elements which facilitate employees to stay logged in and use this platform to its full potential.

The ability to receive notifications on your smart phone for when you may be away from your workstation. It also integrates to your smartwatch so you don't always have to have your phone or laptop near you to still be aware of what's happening at work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When using a filtered tracker and updating a row of information. When you click save either the row you were working on or a different row will disappear, causing you to have to refresh the tracker and re-sort. This can make staying on task difficult as well as making it difficult to accurately update the information in the trackers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

MangoApps is highly customizable (almost excessively so!), so you can really build the space however you want. It's primary use is for internal facing intranet purposes, and most of the examples our customer support specialist showed us were related to that use case, but I was able to turn it into a collaboration space for a multi-year, cross-organizational project with relative ease. They also do a fantastic job applying branding to the space, and their tech support team is incredibly responsive, effective and friendly. It's also the best value I found across the market of similar competitors offering the same services (file sharing, calendar management, online collaboration and social functions), and their sales department is really fantastic to work with. On the tech side, I really liked the privacy/permission settings, it made it very easy to customize views and protect certain documents. I also think their templates and page builders were accessible and user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If you are hoping to use the space with external partners who don't have an O365 license, as of right now, I don't think Mango is a good option for file collaboration and co-editing documents. On the Admin side, be prepared for an absolute maze of options in the Admin portal, the tradeoff for having so much customization is losing some of that ease of navigation you find w/ Basecamp or similar options. Additionally, I think success with the platform really depends on the Customer Success Manager you are assigned. Our first manager was pretty horrible, but as soon as we were paired with a competent person, I experienced a total 180 in my use of the platform and the resolution of issues I'd previously been told were "unsolvable." I have nothing but great things to say about my experience of using the platform with the right support team, so definitely don't be afraid to request a reassignment if you're not satisfied with the customer service you're receiving!

There is built in chat into the system along with screen sharing so I can walk someone through where to find something if they are having issues locating information on Mango Apps Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the Active directory integration could use a little work. Currently you cannot use AD groups for security access to pages on Mango apps. You have to manually give permissions to each user that needs access to a page in the system. That makes for a lot of extra time when adding users to each page.

The level of sophistication of the platform. It is far more robust than you would expect from a standard intranet service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are particular features like the lack of control on the font formatting in text widgets which I thing could perhaps be improved. But overall it is hard to think of things we dislike as a customer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mango apps is a great tool for our company to relay communication. Its a very effective tool for us to be in constant contact with our team, a place to house important information, send out updates, do polls, and many many other things. We use it almost as a company facebook, and its made our teams priorities more aligned and fine tuned. The mangoapps team is a great help, providing insight and help, as well as always improving the platform with new software updates Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are truly no things i dislike. Building your company page is a long and challenging task, but mangoapps is in the trenches with you guiding you step by step to create something that becomes a massive asset to your team.
