## Slab Reviews
  ### 1. Great experience

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 04, 2023

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Slab is easy to use and the layout is pretty straight forward.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

I don't believe there are any major issues.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Helping provide information quickly and have a shared collaborated knowledge base so we don't have to ask eachother.

  ### 2. An amazing knowledge base

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Esdras B. | Co-manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 09, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

It has a great interface and it's very easy to write posts.  Writing shortcuts (based on Markdown) help a lot, there's also a great search system integrated with Google Drive and Gmail.
In addition to all this, there is great financial support (free paid plan) to non-profit companies, unlike their competitors (Notion for example)

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

Block types are still limited compared to Notion, I really miss being able to embed links, which together with external services can bring greater capacity to Slab

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

Is still at an early stage, but with a short period of adaptation, you can do most things in Slab

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are making an extensive knowledge base, applying it in all sectors of our company, in order to perpetuate internal knowledge and help new members who are still inexperienced with our protocols.

  ### 3. Comprehensive, easy to use, great for teams

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Stuart R. | Senior Software Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 02, 2020

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Slab hit every checkbox on our list for features we needed - markdown support, easy to use for multiple user types, easy navigation, slack integration, and several other criteria. We researched about 25 other solutions and none quite met everything as well as Slab! Pricing isn't bad and the public sharing per post is useful also.

The layout is very user friendly in general, as well as navigation. We were able to get completely set up within a day, porting over posts and content from multiple previous sources. The activity feed is useful for a quick glance of what has changed recently, and the ability to have multiple users editing a document at once is very helpful for group meetings.

Support is fairly responsive and quite friendly, if you need them. We were able to ask questions freely during the setup process, however it was easy enough to not really need support.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

Permissions are a bit messy. There definitely needs to be much more improvement for permissions as a whole, as well as more granular options. Right now, there are really only two permissions in the system and everything else is per topic, which is very tedious if you need to change permissions on many topics.

It would also be nice to have team-wide functionality for certain integrations. For example, Slack integration currently only supports a per user notification setup currently.

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

This is probably one of the easiest to use platforms for multiple types of users, but also includes enough features for advanced users.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are getting more people involved in documenting in a single place and using Slab as a standard for our docs. It has been extremely helpful for getting people on the same page.

  ### 4. Everything was pretty much perfect!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer & Network Security | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 08, 2023

**What do you like best about Slab?**

The templates are amazing. The duplication detection feature is great too!

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

It is sometimes not intuitive/user friendly.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Knowledge sharing is integral to our company's growth.

  ### 5. Awesome product documentation on public post. Thanks for having free support to open source projects

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mohd S. | Software developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 19, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

The most helpful feature that we found was to group our topics into categories and that makes it highly structured and easy to search. Haven't tried other products with this functionality.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

Not exactly dislike but one feature that I want from slab is to have a search option in public posts. Since we have hosted our documentation their people are not able to search. They have to look at every topic and find the right one.

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

I would recommend it for other organizations to create documentation for their product.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As I said earlier we are hosting our documentation for our product on Slab as a public post https://glific.slab.com/public/topics/glific-documentation-nb8345sh. This is helpful to sustain our open source project. Thanks for this guys,

  ### 6. A delightful experience with a few teething issues

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Oliver M. | Head of Product, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 10, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

The text editor is sublime to use. I feel like writing on Slab is a delightful experience. The integrations and rich embeds also make it relatively engaging to link in other files and tools in use.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

I only really have a couple of quarrels with Slab, which are the organisation/structure of files and folders, as well as the limited template library. The layout and organisation are slightly confusing, and I find searching for files quite a stressful experience as some folders have sub-folders and others have free-floating files. It could do with a bit of work!

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

It's a beautiful tool, but I would check that it integrates with your existing tool stack ahead of using it. The rich embeds are lovely to use when the tools in use match those in your company stack.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are solving the issue of not having a centralised documentation space. It helps to know where the team can find pieces of information about the platform and to have a safe and enjoyable writing space to put together product requirement documents.

  ### 7. Has potential to be a great documentation tool

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Alex C. | Software Development Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 09, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Able to create a hierarchical structure with topic and posts.
Able to lock down permission at the topic or post level using groups.
Super simple to get started and start drafting documentation.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

When publishing, the permanent link is not user friendly, it is based on the topic/post title plus a random 8-character string appended to the URL.
It does not provide a dark theme.
Limited ability to manage a spreadsheet-like table, limited formatting options at the cell level.
In Read mode, content does not take entire page width.

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

Slab is great for simple documentation to be shared across several teams such as technical documentation, how-to user documentation and workflow procedures.
Slab does provide group-based permission level to lock down documentation level access.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Drafting technical documentation, system designs and workflows.
Drafting how-to documentation for Help Desk teams and IT teams.
By centralizing knowledge and keep it up-to-date and relevant, it reduces number of escalated Help Desk tickets which results in better team performance and productivity.

  ### 8. Slab user review

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Maria A. | Customer Success Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 04, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

It is easy to navigate, I can constantly see what is changed or modified and the last modification took place, table of contents is nicely displayed on the left.
I like the fact that even if I don’t choose the whole phrase but only the part of it, and I change the font, all the phrase changes.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

It is easy to lose the document (especially if it is not published), when I press enter to go the next line, it can delete the image that I pasted or it can change the font of the main heading to normal text.

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

Slab is a very practical tool when we speaking about documenting processes, sharing documentation internally and externally.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are replacing google word and in some cases google sheet documents. 
It is easier to share, it is more presentable for our clients and practical for documentation purposes.

  ### 9. Fantastic tool to share information!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** James A. | Commercial Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 10, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

The ease of using the tool. It's extremely intuitive and simple to use meaning the whole team is able to access and use the system with little or no training involved.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

The table editor feature isn't great. There are work arounds, such as embedding a Google Sheet, but the in built Slab table editor is difficult to use, and doesn't always work as you'd like

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

Slab is a fantastic tool if you're looking for something simple but powerful to use as a central knowledge-sharing location.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We're solving the problem of having loads of different folders in 365. Before information was scattered all over the place, now it is in a central location, meaning business performance has increased

  ### 10. Overal positive experience, a good business solution that I would recommend.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 10, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

- It is like an internal Wiki, very useful for new employees.
- User friendly 
- Can find all I need for my work there
- SSO login 
- It is one of the best solutions for business that I came across
- Helps in cases where you have a lot of newbies. You can just share a link to some article instead of explaining each and everyone all the details.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

- I would be happy if a search would be improved, maybe you can add some tags, so articles that are named the other way will be shown in the search result. This will help for such big companies as ours for example. As you never know how the article was named and it may take a while to find it. Sometimes it does not show what you were actually searching for. However, I guess it might be an issue from our end.

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

The best solution from those that I have used.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are using it as our internal Wiki for employees. It is a huge financial benefit as if we did not have it, we would have to hire tutors etc. Performance and productiveness increased as you can always find the required info without disturbing your colleges.

  ### 11. Great  Tool

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nadia Soledad B. | EMEA Commercial Counsel, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 10, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

The navigation sidebar is easy to find things inside the tool. I appreciate the templates are an excellent starting point. I did not use a device from a competitor

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

The visual part of each page needs some upgrades. So far, everything I used was working well. It disperses me a lot to have a lot of information on the same page.

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

I would recommend to other colleagues the tool to create playbooks, policies, etc.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use Slab as a repository, which is beneficial for our daily work. No, I do not have any financial benefit. I need to use it more to know that. My team is not using the tool for that purpose.

  ### 12. Fast, usable wiki

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Matthew P. | Software Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 09, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Slab has a lot of features. Good organisation, good search, rich and beautiful documents, and a good sharing/permissions model. Unlike other feature-rich wikis, it's also very fast.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

This tool is best-in-class. For many businesses, I suspect the relative lack of integrations might be a blocker. But for us, it integrates with all the services we need.

One question might be whether you need a wiki in the first place — but if you do, Slab is one of the greats.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use Slab for project planning, memos, and high-level technical documentation.

Previously, we relied on Google Docs (which has an unsuitable user interface and lacks many features) and markdown files in our git repositories (which has the same problems, but worse).

It's a little harder to keep Slab in sync with code than it was with markdown files. However, it's much easier to keep it in sync with the business purposes of that code. So the tradeoff is well worth it.

For project planning and memos, there's no contest. Slab is far better than Google Docs.

  ### 13. Your company brain

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 03, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Slab makes it incredibly easy to produce internal documentation for your team/company. In my opinion, the biggest strengths of this product are that new document creation and search are impeccable. It is very good at finding the exact article you are searching for quickly. I also like that you can create a series of articles. We use this for onboarding new staff.

We used to have many how-to articles in Google docs and inside native tools that only some people had access to (like our helpdesk system). Slab blows everything out of the water. It puts the shared knowledge of the company at everyone's fingertips.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

I don't dislike anything about slab. It has great embeds for rich media (movies, PDFs, JIRA issues..) which seems to be growing by the day. The editor is immediately familiar and I can export articles or share them with outside partners.

The one area for growth is knowledge curation. I'd like to see things like reports of aging articles, prompts for the main editor/creator to review and make updates. As our team size and use of slab grows, we find this to be an increasing component of knowledge management.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are solving the problem of having team/company knowledge accessible to everyone.

  ### 14. Writer’s Resource

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Maddie A. | Games Coordinator, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 17, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Organizing sections, tracking changes, clean UI -- Slab has it all. Currently using it to keep an interconnected novel organized and it excels at maintaining structure.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

The only thing really missing is the ability to flag sections and posts with more than just "favorite". Would love an ability to make various states of completion.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The ability to lay out chapters in different sections gives Slab the edge over basic word processing. May not be its intent to be used by a solo user, but I know if I ever wanted to incorporate other users it's got a strong foundation.

  ### 15. One source of truth for all company documents and processes

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 26, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

I love that Slab's platform is very easy to use and that there is one unified platform where I can get the most up-to-date information on my company processes, policies, etc. I also love the content map feature-- it makes it so easy to navigate the hierarchy of knowledge in the company.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

It is a bit too easy to ignore people's comments on a slab page because the comment itself is so discrete and easy to miss. I also think there should be a reminder option that emails the contributors periodically reminding them to update the content.

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

A great tool for navigating complicated knowledge management problems.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

knowledge management. before we were using Google Docs and I never knew whether the docs had up-to-date information, or whether it had been deprecated. I love that Slab is so easy to use and allows multiple people to collaborate very seamlessly.

  ### 16. Efficient software

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** 592_ITISH S. | Content Writer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 10, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

The auto-save feature provided by the platform is top-notch, it is easy to use and maintain, the embed feature is also very good as it pairs well with the use of gif and images.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

A little more versatility would be appreciated, for example more options in formatting the text, the ability to use different formats like points, numbers, blockquote in conjunction to each other.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I like writing, on slab I am able to write blogs without needing to worry about managing the them, the blogs are easy to share and overall makes it easy for other to look at tour posts.

  ### 17. Thoughtful product built for company's looking to build out an internal wiki

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 13, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

The company is product-driven at its core. We had to migrate our company internally from a host of other software platforms spread within the company, including Coda, Notion & Google Docs. Slab makes it easy to import documents (especially from Google-related products) + has integrations with essentially every software platform out there. It supports markdown files -- which was a significant consideration for our software team -- plus auto-populates previews of documents when you post links from Google Docs/Sheets/Slides,Lucidchart, Asana, Github + most other b2b softwares companies are using these days. 

Slab is also highly intuitive for new users. The cognitive load to understand how to navigate the platform is fairly low, which was great for when we transitioned platforms. In addition, the customer support team (Brandon, in particular) has gone above & beyond to help us navigate our needs. The customer support team also communicates consistently with the product team to get new features implemented. We raised a concern with the team about not being able to reorder subtopics & a few weeks later, we saw that that feature was implemented onto the platform!

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

We had some issues with mass exporting out of Coda & mass importing into Slab. The customer support team helped us navigate this, thankfully, but that was the most prominent issue we've encountered thus far.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our main objective with using Slab was to create an internal documentation tool to capture internal processes. It's incredible for this & we are grateful we discovered the platform.

  ### 18. Great Knowledge Base Functionality

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospital & Health Care | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 28, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Slab is very easy to use and full-featured. So far, I like how consistent everything is. All articles created have a similar look to them, so you don't have to worry as much about matching a format.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

One thing I am wishing for is a mobile app. While there may not be as much of a need for it with the web portal, it would be awesome to be able to view articles on the go or when the work computer is not available.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

With Slab, I am creating a knowledge base for IT. We did not have one before, and Slab has made it simple to get the ball rolling. So far, we have over 30 articles within a couple of days. This is highly beneficial to my company because it helps the employees learn.

  ### 19. Slab has allowed our company to finally have a single space for all documentation

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Bianca R. | Lead web app developer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 04, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Slab is ridiculously easy to use, even for our non-tech employees. It has been immensely useful being able to still keep documents hidden from most users, and we love being able to invite outside collaborators to see our docs, without editing them, as well as being able to create directories which they can have edit-access to.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

Like all word processors, it is sometimes difficult to format things, like bullets and such, but show me a word processor that doesn't have the same issues.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We needed a space where we could host all of our documentation in one place. For us, documentation includes technical docs, project summaries, how-to tutorials, documents that require multiple people to contribute to, meeting notes, grant applications, etc. No more shared google folders that you couldn't remember where they were or who owned them. It has also helped with transparency issues, as all employees are able to read meeting notes for any meeting they are interested in, which is helpful when you have multiple committees but can't attend all committee meetings.

  ### 20. Slab for Glific

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 19, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Easy reading and publishing states. Nice commenting feature. The updates made to the doc by other team member is also appreciated. I'm not a power user but it seems to have everything one needs to manage some documents.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

Doc management and ordering is not the most intuitive

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use it for our product's support documentation. It keeps our support docs open and accessible to our users without logins. We don't have to maintain it within our application.

  ### 21. Amazing Knowledge Base Platform!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Bill L. | Director of Operations, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 02, 2020

**What do you like best about Slab?**

- Ease of use
- Perfect amount of features (not too many... too many can confuse posters)
- Searching is fantastic
- Organization 
- UI
- Layout
- Frequent updates

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

- Public facing posts are NOT compatible with Internet Explorer.  That sucks a big one...  clients/users go to the URL and just get a blank page

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

Get everyone using it... not just a select team.  Always be creating content
Have everyone be creating articles
Don't stop!  Gotta start somewhere

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Internal tech knowledge base

  ### 22. Great, clean visuals - usability needs a bit of polishing

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 09, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

UI looks great - the design looks very clean and attractive, and the platform is very responsive, making interacting with the platform generally very pleasant.
Design for slash command and popup menu is also very well done.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

Typing out the desired content trips up in a few places - for example, indenting bullet points, and typing around inline code blocks. Pressing enter on the next bullet point removes the bullet entirely, instead out unindenting the bullet point by one level - would prefer that a backspace did that instead. Around inline code blocks, it's hard to selectively type within the code block or right outside it, because the cursor doesn't seem to give the option between the boundaries of the two - so you might end up typing further in one side or the other and deleting extraneous characters to compensate instead.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Publishing documents not meant for high collaboration, but rather informative or of an announcement nature. The visuals are engaging and the document organization on the left panel keeps things handy. Global search feature is also very good.

  ### 23. The Ideal tool for managing documentation

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rie T. | Site Helper, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 10, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

The parts I like about Slab are being able to write tidy documents without a huge learning curve. Just type "/" and get a searchable list of elements you can use (font size, highlighting, dividers, tables, code, etc).
A new feature that has been very helpful to me is "Groups." Being able to move all the team members into their respective groups saves a lot of time in managing topic membership and helps keep things organised.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

While Slab is great, it feels somewhat unpolished. Whether that be because it's just not mature enough yet, or perhaps they have missed some things, it's a bit rough around the edges.
1. Permissions - Admins can demote other Admins, including the person who created the slab instance. The permissions are not granular at all, and you should be very cautious about handing out administration permissions.
2. Topics - Like the first point, there are very minimal permissions here. I feel like Slab would be great with granular permissions per user/group for each instance/group/topic/post.
3. Tables - Working with tables in Slab is somewhat hellish. There is very minimal customisation for it. You cannot set column sizes or ratios (e.g., 50%/25%/25% for three columns), and it just feels a bit too unpolished to use comfortably.
Honestly, other than this, I can't really find more faults.
4. Styling - No custom fonts, no custom colours (and no custom font weights either) - While these aren't super important, they could be helpful for displaying information.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use Slab to organise the documentation for our website, a free & non-profit listing website. Previously we had a number of sporadic documents hosted on Google Docs, or pinned in a Discord channel. After migrating over to slab, we've had only smooth sailing since. Being able to import our old files from google drive and only needing to make minimal formatting changes was a wonderful experience.  Now, whenever we have ideas, improvements, announcements, or more documentation, we throw it onto slab quickly and easily, and it's accessible for everyone to see. I don't see us switching back to our old system.

  ### 24. Simple, straightforward, highly effective knowledge base solution

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Zachary M. | Managing Partner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 02, 2020

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Simplicity of the interface makes it much more likely the people will actually use the system, especially to add content.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

Can't think of any major dislikes offhand.

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

Highly recommended

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are successfully converting "tribal knowledge" into a recorded, searchable database of policies, procedures, and "best practice" guidelines.

  ### 25. Slab is the perfect combination of simple to work with and a powerful, 'lots of options' platform.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 10, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

My team had an effortless time onboarding to this platform, we have tried other 'Wiki' type platforms, and the complication of working with it is not worth the million options offered.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

It will be nice to have the ability to add text from right to left in posts, for instance if we need to add hebrew or arabic.It is possible to write in hebrew or arabic just not in the right to left direction.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are a team of mechanical and electronics engineers, and we needed an easy to work with knowledge base of us to share, the searching for relevant info is a breeze now

  ### 26. Slab is a good product, notion is better

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Oscar A. | Solution Representative - Dassault Systemes Partner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 10, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

High profile companies slab templates. You can adapt these templates to create company documents in a few minutes.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

Few components to add. Mainly text and image. Almanac & Notion provide more options at this moment.

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

In my experience, Slab is an excellent product to start with collaborative documents. For more demanding users or companies, there are other options on the market.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

collaborative documents up to date and accessible

  ### 27. Powerful, Searchable Knowledgebase

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Wes S. | Services Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 10, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

We like the nice clean layout, the powerful search, and the excellent permissions capability for different levels of users. We're using it more all the time!

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

We wish for a few more capabilities in post layout, but it really does all we need it to do.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our team is better informed, and we have better consistency across multiple teams than we ever had before.

  ### 28. Great documentation tool

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Insurance | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 10, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

I like how you can copy and past G-docs or Gifs. I find this super smooth. Also the ease of now ordering topics is great. Just generally a smooth experience.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

The only thing missing for me at the moment is the ability to reverse an action. I have deleted paragraphs in the past and you can't just cancel the last action. It can be super annoying to have to rewrite it all. I wish we could add more than 1 owner to a post.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Information is accessible for everyone in one place. Super beneficial for any company that is growing quickly.

  ### 29. Great internal knowledgebase with growing sharing features

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ricardo F. | Steering Committee - core group member, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 18, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

I compared several options and chose Slab over Slite (closest contender), Confluence, Tettra, Nuclino as well as Outline.
The feature set and clean interface offered just the right amount of functionality and integration in our stack. 

- Ease of setup and use
- Integration with Slack to provide articles and previews inside the team chat
- Embed content from Workplace, Airtabe, Asana, Github... 
- Omni-search across several app sources like Slack, Trello, Drive, Dropbox...
- Reasonable price pint
- Growing feature set for teams and guest acess

Slite was a close second. The editor looks familiar if you're using Dropbax Paper, the menu organization for Slack users. I found the organization lacking but that may have improved.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

- Limited formatting options inside posts, I miss better tables and image options, rich formatting options required keyboard shortcuts (to keep the interface simple)

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Upgrading from a chaotic selection of linked Google Docs, we looked for a simple to use yet solid internal team wiki/knowledgebase and found in Slab precisely what we were looking for.

  ### 30. Slab is cool app

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 13, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Great way to organize company material. The UI is friendly and easy to navigate. The "slide" type format surprised me and I enjoy it much more than I originally thought.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

My company just started using Slab about 2 months ago so I haven't found anything that I dislike as of yet.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Like many startups, information can be all over the place. Having one central place for All Hands meetings & slide decks, onboarding material and company policies is how we're leveraging Slab today.

  ### 31. Great wiki for capturing team knowledge

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Derek G. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 03, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Easy to use 
Easy to collaborate with others on articles
Great formatting tools
Easy to link articles
Easy to embed pictures
Easy to search for articles
No need to host a wiki

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

Not as familiar as a wiki for formatting

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Team knowledge
Articles on topics that are easy to share
Protocols
Company policies
Easy for people to find things in a single location

  ### 32. Great for collaboration

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 09, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

The ability to share knowledge and articles amongst the team is super helpful - it's going to be really helpful in improving how knowledge is shared and accessed within my team.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

It sometimes feels tricky to find the articles I'm looking for; Perhaps this is just down to how our team has organized our data, but I'm not always sure I'm looking in the right place for what I need

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We're building an internal knowledge base, including common company documents like our policies and benefits, slide decks from global company meetings, and resources for new employees.

  ### 33. An easy way to store all of your company policies in one place

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Legal Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 10, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Slab is very user-friendly. Staff can add posts and documents in just a few easy steps. These items are then searchable which makes finding the information much easier.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

The downside to Slab is learning your way around the admin side. There could be more tutorials and/or videos to help admins get started and get more use of the product.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Slab helps us put all of our policies and procedures in one location that is easy for our team to find. The articles are searchable so that they can easily find the information they need.

  ### 34. Well Designed Team Collaboration

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rea R. | Product Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 19, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

First, a few caveats: I spent 5 years using Confluence as an internal wiki and just this year began using Notion (personal account) and Slab (team account). My impression of Slab and Notion is that both are slightly updated versions of Confluence with more plugins to support different content that you might want to add. I don't have a preference between any of the softwares except that I will say that NONE of them make creating complex tables that easy - Confluence being the worst, then Slab, then Notion. If I had to choose one thing that I like best about Slab it's the design.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

Difficult to add the right data tables that cross-reference material from other pages.

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

Make sure that it has all of the features you need based on your use case. Compare price point with other wiki software if price is a factor (Notion, Coda.io, Confluence)

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Team collaboration. Internal Wiki. Knowledge organization.

  ### 35. Game Changer

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in E-Learning | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 10, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

This is a best solution to train.  With the ability to imbed Loom videos, you can show hands-on training for complicated tasks with the ability to have the transcript available to copy/paste in the Slab.  You're able to trim the videos for best-fit options.  It's been a game-changer for our staff especially for those working remotely.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

The only thing that could be better is if Slab had the video capability built in.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Slab solved issues with those who need comprehensive hands-on training with the ability to replay the videos as often as needed.

  ### 36. Slick user experience assured

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 16, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

I like how user-friendly Slab is. Compared to similar services, I do believe Slab can be considered the one tool any new joiner could pick up on in no time.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

From a user experience perspective, let's separate between being a passive and an active user. In terms of being a passive user, I really don't have much to complain about. However, whenever actively contributing to a Slab post, I think some functionalities could be made more user-friendly. I'm mainly talking about the editing and suggesting features.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I consider Slab to be an internal operational Wikipedia for a company. Any doubt you may have about how processes work or about who should be dealing with what in a company environment is there for me to have access to.

  ### 37. Great documentation tool for any business that wants a central repository for team knowledge

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Devan S. | CTO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 28, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Extremely simple to just jump in and start typing up notes.  The editor totally gets out of the way and lets you put down all your knowledge, then makes cleaning and editing later a breeze.  It's been great for new team members to jump in and learn about how we do things at our company.  For those with more experience, the keyboard friendly commands make it easy to highlight and format text while typing.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

It could be a little bit easier or intuitive to create sub-articles under a main article.  We like to split our documentation into smaller bite sized pieces, and sometimes it is confusing to try and organize the smaller articles under a header topic.  Also wish that the main home page could have a list of 'favourite' or 'popular' articles to highlight things we want the team to see or be aware of.

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

If you are looking to set up a knowledgebase for your team quickly and easily, I would strongly recommend looking at Slab.  It is a platform that gets out of your way and lets you concentrate on writing rather than fighting with the interface all the time.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We neede a place to store all those little processes and procedures that we developed in house.  Our team is very fast growing, so we needed a way for new team members to get up to speed quickly.  So far, all our new team have mentioned how much they love Slab and how easy it was to find information and navigate around the knowledgebase.  Everyone can quickly update outdated articles, and they love how they can use our company G-Suite login to access the system without having to create new logins.

  ### 38. Incredible Customer Support, Always Innovating

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Megan C. | Business Infrastructure Administrator, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 27, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

SLAB has support staff that values your input and will actually take what you say into consideration in a way that produces results. The program is incredibly user friendly and evolving all the time to be better. The different levels of access are super helpful and make it possible for SLAB to be the one true place where you can store all of your information. The ability to customize your formatting/topics/hierarchies - it allows you to shape the platform into a tailored tool. SLAB just gets better with time and I don't know how my company would have such accessible information channels without it.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

There really are no major flaws with SLAB in my mind. If I had to pick one it would have to do with limited user metrics reporting I suppose? Team Insights is usefull but maybe a more granualr approach to see what subtopics are most viewed, user log ins, post visits over time, etc. I've been told further data reporting is already in the works though because, again, Responsive Customer Support!

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As a fairly large company - especially now with many of us working remotely - SLAB helps use keep all of our policies, processes, companywide updates, etc. all in one location. Online document libraries can be tough for people to navigate to find the info they need - SLAB helps us keep it direct and easy to locate for employees at every level. It also allows for direct engagement with policies and processes so that any employee can directly ask questions about any aspect of their every day. The support team is also incredibly responsive which is so helpful if, as an admin, you have a question about best practice/functionality - super informative and prompt.

  ### 39. Slab is simple and simply the best

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Byard P. | Owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 13, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

I enjoy that Slab is organized with input that makes sense to the users.  Its search features are excellent.   I like that I can create reader pathways connecting various topics.    It makes commenting on documents very easy.  Also, export works great.  The Content map a useful tool. Favorites are organized and easy to access.  I particularly like the modern look and feel.  I don't know what computer language they program in, but everything is snappy, fast, and just really fun to work with.   I especially like the @ feature to reference other documents.    This makes linking documents and hyperlinking especially fast.     I also like that I can format a document directly in a WSIWYG format and it doesn't have some other editor.  Attatching PDF's is easy and they are readable directly within SLAB

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

I wish Slab had a built-in learning feature of some sort (either quizzes or maybe a gamified point system for reading articles -- some way to motivate team members to complete reading).   Also as an administrator, I wish I could see who had logged in, and how long they spent on different articles.

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

Slab was super generous toward us as a non-profit.  They have a special for non-profits like no other software.   
Also Slab is always updating their product, so likely you will start off with a great software and within a year -- you will find it has improved in a direction that you were hoping.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We need for everyone to input the things they are learning professionally.   Slab provides a common forum and a library of topics.  We also are training workers using various .pdf's and such.   Slab allows for a variety of information to be  accessed and read by "students"  (though this is not an LMS, it is sort of how we are using it.)

  ### 40. Keeps everyone on the same page!

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jacob Sky L. | Founder & COO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 04, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Beautiful design, intuitive UI, fast support. Really feels fun to use and our team is enjoying using the tool in a social and collaborative way. I really love the fast knowledge search and I think that this is an under-sold aspect of the platform. If we can truly integrate all of our platforms into Slab and if the indexing and searching functionality is solid-enough, Slab could be an invaluable one-stop way for our team to find ANYTHING related to the business. At this point it does seem like there is not enough onboarding/information for new users to effectively now how to utilize this part of the tooo.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

Some of the hierarchy and organization of pages and topics could be improved. Team-based page templates would also be useful. I think that Slab is misguiding users a bit with the type of templates they provide. I do not think the platform is best suited for note taking or 'living resources' like task lists, as they suggest. I think Slab should be employed more as a centralized database of company culture and history.

The Notification Center also is a bit laggy.

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

Think about what softwares you use internally and how your team will respond to an additional tool. You could certainly accomplish anything you do in Slab with Google docs + sheets, but Slab's interface and fun design makes the tool feel more like a social platform with a very dedicated and specific use-case.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

A centralized place to store internal knowledge, FAQs, team culture, and overall develop and iterate on our company's institutional memory.

  ### 41. Just right balance of features, brilliantly executed. Worth every penny.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Harrison B. | Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 27, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Slab is one of apps that's so well designed that my team actually *want* to use it, vitally important for something like Slab which we use as a knowledge base for our company. It's got just the right balance of features to make it powerful (we upgraded to Slab from a messy blend of Google Docs, pinned Slack messages and readme files in code repos) but they've thought about how to also make it approchable for novice users. I'd specificially highlight its excellent search, commenting and live collaborative editing features — they're genuinely impressive and well exectued.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

Honestly, I can't think of any real downsides. The only friction I've encountered has come from the sheer amount of organisational knowledge we have to capture and organise, and that would have happend with any knowledge base.

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

My main tip is to recognise that, like any knowledge base or collaboration tool, Slab isn't magic — you need to think about how you're going to organise your information, how you want your team to use it, what you want to put where, etc. Just getting the tool but not advocating for its use or actively investing in putting information into it won't achieve anything.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Primarily, we wanted to capture organisational knowledge better. We're a software development consultancy so we have lots of information and beste practices and our team leaders were getting tired of teaching team members the same things over and over, and we also had some divergance in our workflows as we grew, so we needed to start capturing information to onboard new staff and remind existing staff of how we do things. This information was spread over Google Docs, pinned Slack messages and readme files in code repos. We also had to chuck things like employee handbooks and policies into Google Docs and there were hard to find so no-one ever read them. Slab is much better — it *feels* lightweight and easy to use (despite being quite powerful) and that's encouraged my team to actually use it meaning our staff are naturally sharing information with each other rather than team leaders being a bottleneck for knowledge sharing. Recently we've hired a lot and having a Slab as a place to build an onboarding and training programme was really valuable.

  ### 42. I use a lot of software and I really like SLAB!

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 02, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

SIMPLE. It is just straight simple to use SLAB. No training needed. Everything is super intuitive. I can create and edit our repository of articles. It is a better more organized google drive.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

Honestly there is not much to dislike but I have found searching slab to be a little tedious, but maybe thats because we have a ton of info on there. But search could be more geared to the user.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

This is our central hub of information for a company of 1000 people and we use this every single day- every single person in the company. It has kept us organized in a tech fast paced environment.

  ### 43. Amazing for Curated Content

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jonathan B. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 03, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Our team uses slab to post internal blog-like postings that we believe will be valuable to current and future employees.  It has the ability to verify postings every so often to make sure they are still relevant.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

Right now, I don't have any major complaints about Slab.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As CEO, I post "Early Morning Thoughts" where I am able to summarize the top-of-mind issues.  I think this is a good archive for future employees to go back and read through.  We use it for weekly communications (snippets, goals, etc) but not for daily (we use Slack for this).  

It is so much easier to search through slab posts than any other solution we've found out there.  The table of contents, plus the ability to tag posts in multiple areas makes it very easy to find the right knowledge when you need it.

  ### 44. Great way to share knowledge with teams

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ruy Nestor B. | Executive Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 13, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

There are many great things about Slab! I must say though that what made my team change to Slab is  how easy it is to edit and update content. It's that simple! And this is done while also allowing admin to restrict who can edit each topic.

Apart from that, it's also very positive that it can be easily integrated with apps like Slack, Loom and Airtable, which our team already uses a lot. And the fact that it can search threads from Slack? Remarkable. Sometimes our team shares tips and tricks in our Slack group and don't add it to our knowledge base. In this way, if a user were to search for something on Slab, and the answer was only on Slack, then they would still be able to find it regardless.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

I think there's too many tabs on the left sidebar. Admins should be able to manage that. But that's more of a feature request than an actual dislike, as all the features Slab has makes it an indispensible tool for our team. We think it is the best tool out there for knowledge sharing.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The main problem we're solving with Slab is to be able to easily share knowledge (instructions, processess, guides) with the team, especially new volunteers. With Slab, we've been able to center all that in one place. 

We are now able to have text instructions merged with Loom videos, as well as with embedded Airtable views, PDF files, all organized in one single place, for each topic we're covering.And this is all done without muck work. The integrations are very simple to set up.

  ### 45. Great resource knowledge base (wiki) for any organisation

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Igor J. | Owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 12, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Accessible by all team (staff) members.
Fantastic search functionality so that relevant topics are easily found.
Free version for small teams makes it usable by even the smallest company or even home user to maintain a resource file for example, their computer settings, even manuals for items in the home.
The documents are easy to be maintained and kept up to date - so very current.
It can also link with other apps.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

Nothing really. I'd like more formatting functionality but as it was originally designed by and for software engineers, learning the markdown language is not too onerous which then improves the appearance and functionality even more.
Pricing has a sudden jump if wanting to go past 10 users.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Great knowledge base for my small organisation, and even my home.
If the gate doesn't work, there's instructions to reset it.
It's also very easy to keep updated so information is current and live.
It has helped us greatly with the accreditation process.

  ### 46. Easy to use software for SOPs in any business

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Michael H. | Advanced Life Support Paramedic, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 09, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

I love that Slab is clean looking and fun to use. Complicated software makes users hesitant to commit to gaining knowledge how to use; Slab is different in this way. If you are after a simple program that makes making SOPs fun, check out Slab

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

I didn't discover it sooner! More on soial media please (:

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I'm making it easy for outsourcing work overseas. I want this aspect to simplified and automated, slab is doing that for me

**Reviewed Date:** February 09, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Integration of other platforms
Live collaboration

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

Easier sharing outside the company, integration with ClickUp

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

Use all functions to keep your slab neatly organized, otherwise it becomes overwhelming

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

One central area to document our processes. Looks visually great

  ### 48. Easy to use knowledge base software

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 10, 2022

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Slab is an easy collaboration program. The search works very well, and the autosaving is excellent. Very intuitive, I was able to learn the interface quickly.

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

I do not have anything negative to say at the time.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Slab has been extremely effective at improving collaboration and onboarding. As a new employee, I was able to get up to speed quickly and get access to the info I needed in a timely manner.

  ### 49. Essential/excellent for taking and arranging notes and documentation

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Wes B. | Producer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 03, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

Slab provides a user-friendly platform for taking notes. Love the way notes can be arranged into topics and subtopics. The ability to include media and links within notes creates an easy way to author and share documentation with team members and clients. Awesome!

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

It was difficult to find my private notes and topics, I wish this was more apparent from my profile page.

**Recommendations to others considering Slab:**

I definitely recommend Slab as a tool that is easy to use for taking internal notes to share with the team, yet robust enough to create detailed documentation for clients.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We initially began using Slab as a repository for internal team notes and private notes, but we found that it is an excellent way to create detailed documentation that can be shared with clients.

  ### 50. Slab is the perfect tool for having a single source of truth

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tomás  V. | Software Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 29, 2021

**What do you like best about Slab?**

I like the rich text editor and how pages are organized. You can create several categories and everything is easy to access to.

Also, having a history of changes helps a lot!

**What do you dislike about Slab?**

Although I like the text editor, I'd ads some more features to it. For example, I'd appreciate it if I could use more commands or have some sort of templates to just fill in information instead of writing the whole pages again.

**What problems is Slab solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are using Slab for having a Team Wiki, where we can find info about anything in the company. It helps us keeping a single source of truth, that we can trust and contribute altogether as a team. The good part is that everybody can write articules and share them, so everybody's voice is heard
