"Helpful video creation, but be aware of large price increases at renewal"
1.5/5
What do you like best about Whale?

The use of the video creation is helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whale?

We've had videos not upload after creating them. It let's you record for up to an hour, but then the video doesn't always save. If the upload limit is meant to be 10 minute videos or shorter, then I would like to have a cap when creating them so we don't lose a video we just made. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Stijn Smet of Whale

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback! We really appreciate it, especially your comments about our video creation capabilities.

I'm sorry to hear you've lost recordings. That's incredibly frustrating, especially after investing time in creating them, and certainly not the experience we want you to have.

One thing I'd love to better understand is your use case for longer videos. At Whale, we encourage keeping content concise, consistent, and easy to digest, particularly when creating step by step guides. While Whale supports uploading videos longer than an hour, our video to guide functionality is designed around shorter, more focused recordings that employees can easily follow.

That said, losing a recording should never be the consequence of creating longer content, and your suggestion to introduce a recording limit or warning is absolutely valid.

I'd genuinely love to understand how you're using these longer recordings and explore how we can make the experience better for you. Feel free to reach out to me directly at **stijn.smet@usewhale.io**.

Thanks again for the candid feedback. It's exactly what helps us improve!

"Fast Response, Easy System, and Outstanding Onboarding Support"
5/5
What do you like best about Whale?

The fast response time, the system ease, and the onboarding service.

Plus, we like the feeling we always have one person that is right around the corner to help us. It has all the answers for our team which has saved me 100's of calls Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whale?

I don't have any points of dislike - yet. ;) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Stijn Smet of Whale

We appreciate YOU. 🐳💙

The part about always feeling like there’s one person right around the corner to help? That one means a lot to us. Great software is important, but knowing you feel supported while using it is just as important.

And saving you **hundreds of calls** by helping your team find answers themselves? YES. That is exactly what we want Whale to do: make your team more self-sufficient without making you the human search bar all day. 😂

Also, “no points of dislike — yet ;)” made me laugh. We’ll do our very best to keep it that way.

Thank you so much for the kind words and for trusting us with your team. We genuinely appreciate you. 💙

"Whale Makes SOP Creation Fast and Effortless"
5/5
What do you like best about Whale?

It will create the SOP from a screen recording or from phone video. You can also ask it create one from scratch and you can edit it as necessary. It saved me so much time since this is our company's first time doing an SOP. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whale?

Not much at this point. In the beginning I wish there were features that they didn't have. Whale is excellent about feedback from their customers and everything I wished it could do has since been added. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Stijn Smet of Whale

Ahhh I LOVE this one. 🐳💙

Hearing that Whale saved you so much time while creating your company’s very first SOPs is exactly the kind of thing we love to hear. Starting from scratch can feel like such a massive project, so knowing the screen recording, video, and AI tools made that easier makes me very happy.

And honestly, the part about features you wished for actually being added over time? That means a lot. We really do take customer feedback seriously, so thank you for helping us make Whale better along the way.

Please send me a quick email at **[stijn.smet@usewhale.io](mailto:stijn.smet@usewhale.io)** — I’d love to send you a little token of our appreciation for taking the time to leave such a lovely review. 💙

"Easy to Use, Well-Organized Platform with Great AI Integrations"
5/5

The overall layout of the program ease of us, AI integrations, App, the overall organization of information, included org chart, how it combines loom and scribe into one platform, integration of QR codes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whale?

I haven't found anything yet that we do not like about whale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Stijn Smet of Whale

Thank you so much for this review! 🐳 This genuinely made my day.

I especially love hearing that Whale is helping you bring more structure and organization to your processes, while still making it easy for your team to actually find what they need when they need it. That’s exactly what we want Whale to do. And the Loom + Scribe + AI + QR code combo getting some love? We’ll absolutely take it. 😂

Also, “nothing we dislike yet” — no pressure on us whatsoever. 😅

Could you send me a quick email at stijn.smet@usewhale.io](mailto:stijn.smet@usewhale.io? I’d love to send you a little token of our appreciation for taking the time to share this. 💙

Thank you again for being part of Whale!

"Simplifying Processes and Information Access"
5/5
What do you like best about Whale?

Very informative & user friendly. Whale makes knowledge sharing and documentation simple and accessible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whale?

Sometimes it takes time to find specific information, and the navigation could be more intuitive. Improving search accuracy and simplifying the user experience would make the platform even better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Stijn Smet of Whale

Thank you so much for this one. 🐳💙

I love hearing that Whale is helping centralize your knowledge and making it easier to stay aligned on the latest processes. That is exactly the problem we want to solve.

And your feedback on search and navigation is completely fair. One little tip in the meantime: don’t forget about **Alice**. 👀 Instead of hunting through the workspace, you can just ask her the question and she’ll pull the answer from your Whale content in a split second.

Thank you as well for the honest feedback. The good AND the “this could be better” comments are what help us keep improving Whale. 💙

"Whale Keeps Department Training Organized with Boards, Libraries, and Playbooks"
5/5
What do you like best about Whale?

Boards, Libraries and Playbooks help to keep company training in one place for each department, and it lets you generate videos, SOPs, and quizzes for each topic, among other materials. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whale?

So far, there’s nothing I dislike about Whale. I can’t think of any issues or areas that need improvement at the moment, but I’ll definitely share feedback in the future as part of the improvement process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Stijn Smet of Whale

Hey Ketan,

This one was a joy to read. Thank you for taking the time to share it.

You’ve nailed exactly what we want Whale to be for teams. One place where training actually lives and makes sense. Boards, Libraries, and Playbooks are there to give structure to what is usually scattered across tools, folders, and outdated docs. When each department has its own clear space, everything just clicks faster.

Love that you’re using Whale to create not just SOPs, but also videos and quizzes. That combination is powerful. It turns static documentation into real training experiences that people can actually follow, learn from, and retain. That’s where we see teams go from “we have documentation” to “our team actually knows what to do.”

And your point about replacing a less efficient system hits home. A lot of teams come to Whale because their knowledge is spread across multiple tools, hard to maintain, and even harder to use. Bringing everything into one place, with structure and consistency, is where the real efficiency gains show up. Faster onboarding, clearer processes, and way less back and forth internally.

Also appreciate the note on not having any dislikes so far. We won’t get too comfortable though. We’re constantly improving the product, especially around scaling content, keeping things easy to manage, and making training even more engaging.

If you ever want to go deeper, there’s a lot more you can unlock with Whale like:

* Recording processes and turning them into SOPs instantly

* Using AI Assist to speed up and standardize documentation

* Embedding tools and resources directly into your training

* Tracking progress so you know who actually completed what

Really glad to hear Whale is making things feel more efficient and well managed on your end.

Appreciate you being part of Whale.

"Whale Makes Creating Clear Documentation Effortless"
5/5
What do you like best about Whale?

I really enjoy how easy it is to upload a document into Whale, or even a screen recording, and then create documentation in a clear, easy-to-use way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whale?

So far, there is nothing that I dislike about Whale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Stijn Smet of Whale

WE LOVE YOU. 🐳💙

This is exactly what we want Whale to feel like: take the knowledge you already have, whether that’s sitting in a document or living inside a screen recording, and turn it into clear documentation without making it a whole project.

“Creating documentation quickly” may be a very short answer, but honestly… that’s the dream.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this review. It genuinely means a lot to our team. 💙

"Effortless SOP Management with Stellar AI Search"
5/5
What do you like best about Whale?

I like how Whale makes all the SOPs formalized with standard formatting and serves as a central point for team members to look for SOPs. It's easy to use and search, thanks to its really quick AI mode. The easy login using SSO via Google is great, letting me use one login for all different applications. The AI search mode is helpful for finding any SOP among hundreds of thousands of documents. Also, the support team is really helpful in implementing any suggestions we might have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Stijn Smet of Whale

Hey there,

“Hundreds of thousands of documents” and still finding what you need in seconds… yeah, that’s exactly the kind of chaos we’re here to clean up 😄

Love that you’re seeing value in the AI search. That’s one of the biggest shifts we’re pushing. SOPs are only useful if people can *actually find and use them*. Alice is built to cut through all the noise and just give you the answer, instantly.

Also great callout on standardization. Having SOPs is one thing, having them structured, consistent, and easy to follow across teams is a completely different level. That’s where you start seeing real impact in onboarding, quality, and day to day execution.

And yes to SSO 🙌

Logging into five different tools just to do your job should not be a thing anymore. The smoother we can make access, the more your team actually uses the content.

Really appreciate you mentioning the support team as well. We take that seriously. If you’re building your internal knowledge hub on Whale, you shouldn’t feel like you’re doing it alone.

From what you’re describing, you’re already using Whale the way it’s meant to be used:

* Centralized knowledge

* Standardized SOPs

* Fast creation and even faster retrieval

* Low friction access for the team

That’s the foundation of a team that scales without things breaking.

No dislikes either… we’ll take that, but we won’t get lazy 😉

If you ever want to go even further, there’s still a lot you can unlock with things like recording workflows into SOPs, using AI Assist to speed up creation, or layering in training with quizzes and playbooks.

Appreciate you being part of Whale.

Stino 😄

"Great and fast support from our neighbouring country ;)"

The fast response time, the system ease, and the onboarding service.

Also, the pricing is not too high, which is always a great plus! :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Whale?

I don't have any points of dislike - yet. ;)

The Whale plugin could use some overall stability, but we haven't used it that much yet, for my judgment to be fair. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simplifies Documentation and Training, Easy to Use"
5/5
What do you like best about Whale?

I find Whale easy to use, and I'm excited about its huge potential moving forward. The initial setup seemed quite simple, making it user-friendly from the start. It's effective for searching documented processes and watching monthly meetings, which streamlines information access for employees. Instead of needing to ask several people or managers, having a single resource for documented processes is a significant convenience. After switching from SharePoint, where the interface was challenging to navigate, Whale has been a refreshing change. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
