Podio

Pros: Collaboration ease, organizational convenience, growing add-ons. My husband uses the system much more

Cons: Getting a response from their team is a hope and dream. Even if you email. My assistant has been awaiting on boarding after contacting with no resolve

Pros: Podio is extremely flexible and customizable. It allows us to design workflows, apps, and processes exactly according to our business needs rather than forcing us into a rigid structure. The ability to build custom apps, automate processes, manage permissions, and integrate with third-party tools makes it a very powerful platform for CRM and operations management.

Cons: Podio has a learning curve, especially for new users without technical experience. Advanced automation and integrations often require external tools or technical expertise. The native reporting and UI could also be improved, and performance can feel slow at times when working with very large datasets.

Pros: Tremendous support. All their team members know EVERY nuance. It’s been a great way to track tasks and it’s my go to CRM.

Cons: It’s not really known as a CRM so I think I may be taking shortcuts and not taking advantage of many features and benefits.

Pros: i like how the podio is turning in now for the future and it will be more easier and save time since there will be an AI

Cons: Wha I like least is that AI can sometimes feel overwhelming or confusing at first, especially when there’s a lot of new informational all at once.

Pros: The simply, accountable and clear way of sharing info between teams and manage projects, customers and suppliers.

Cons: All employees must have the same kind of account even if they do not access to change models or create automations

Pros: Globiflow and mallableness. I like that i can build my own apps. I like that its flexible and affordable.

Cons: Changing hands a lot and lack of dashboard improvements. I dont have the technical knowledge to do the best stuff or make procfu look attractive

Pros: Customizability and flexibility; Task management; Integration with google drive; Team cooperation and coordination

Cons: Some automations could be easier (buttons) and some customization could also be easier (different item layouts).

Pros: I like the collaboration and customization abilities that Podio offers. Podio is easy to figure out and learn by yourself. It is Facebook for businesses.

Cons: Reports can be hard to run and confusing. I also dislike the ability to turn off commenting in certain areas of Podio.

Pros: Depth of capability of the software we use. Very fast, compatible with everything things we throw at it.

Cons: It's very good, but I'm struggling with 200 limit of files for document handing. But that's probably me missing something.

Pros: The cost I don't have an idea because I'm from IT, haven't had any issues yet so I haven't contacted customer support, the ease of use is very good easy to navigate and get used to all workflows, task management is very easy and very flexible on navigation, project collaboration is a good feature and gives us flexibility on tasks.

Cons: Just a very few automation, some of our applications are not yet integrated to podio so we have to use zapier to get that running

Pros: The customer service response time from our Podio rep is amazing! Jacquelyn is always available to help and super fast to respond and solve our problems when we need her!

Cons: Lack of reporting options. It would be very helpful if Podio had some better printing and reporting options.

Pros: Ease of use and ability to customize. Like that you can see calls and last comments tagged to your email automatically.

Cons: Alerts and ease of making reminder more automated. But can i do more, with the app, that is my limitation.

Pros: It’s so easy to use, it centralizes work, love the built-in workflows, it fits to our needs and enhances teamwork.

Cons: I would like more enhancements to add throughout the years. I do see a more internally approach moving forward.

Pros: it is easy to use and consolidation is much good. task management is clearly highlighted. It is really value of money.

Cons: The only thing that i dont like is small bugs and issues sometimes that can disrupt the podio tasks.

Pros: Enables our team to communicate with each other and our clients seamlessly and easily. Allows us to keep documentation centralized and easy to locate.

Cons: It's not extremely easy to locate tickets that you were working in once you close the tab. It takes a bit of effort and digging sometimes.

Pros: I prefer to create apps which represent the stages of our journal, so work, notes, files do not exist in different tools.

Cons: I do not like the time-consuming nature of setups, and sometimes bugs cause me to check whether my updates were saved.

Pros: Amazing flexibility and platform capabilities - high value for money! Unify all data and workflows in one place.

Cons: Configuration and set up time, but partners and templates can help speed this up to ensure customization is done to meet needs of your business.

Pros: Podio is one of the most powerful CRM tools I’ve used so far. It offers huge flexibility, a user-friendly interface, and unmatched customization options — all at one of the most competitive price points in the market. Their support has become outstanding, and the Podio user community remains as strong and helpful as ever. Every business needs reminders and tasks, and Podio’s in-built task system makes this seamless. Team communication is effortless, project management is simplified, and any invoicing or payment-related issues are resolved with impressive speed.

Cons: Podio still has room for improvement with new features. Two key areas that come to mind are: A redesigned, modern mobile app The ability to assign user roles at the app and field level

Pros: Unconstrained ability to build custom workspaces and apps on the fly. Utilizing the Advanced Workflow Automation capabilities (included with Premium plan) exponentially enhances the capabilities of Podio. With its drag-n-drop interface, Podio is one of the most flexible and powerful tools available. Podio has been a no-code powerhouse before most people even knew no-code was a thing.

Cons: Has been extremely slow to evolve with new features. Also lacks internal integrations with 3rd-party apps, replying instead on API integrators such as Zapier. Because there are no boundaries or restrictions on what you can create, the initial learning curve is a bit of a challenge. Once you begin to think like a relational database, the magic happens.

Pros: Podio has completely transformed the way I run my businesses. I manage multiple companies across different industries, and Podio handles it all with ease—CRM, project management, task tracking, document storage, team collaboration, you name it. The customization is unmatched; I can build workflows and apps tailored exactly to how I operate, not the other way around. I’ve used platforms like Salesforce and others in the past, but Podio runs circles around them in flexibility, ease of use, and cost-effectiveness. It’s powerful enough to handle complex processes, yet simple enough for my entire team to adopt quickly. The integrations, automation capabilities, and overall adaptability are endless. If you want one platform that can truly scale with your business, keep everything organized, and streamline communication, Podio is hands-down the best choice out there.

Cons: For a while, they were stagnant on implementing new improvements and their customer support was a bit slow in the past responding to issues. Since new ownership has taken over, things are trending in the right direction on both of these.

Pros: Amazing low-code platform that allows me and my team to rethink and structure our business the way we want. Podio is so much for than a CRM and Project management. Its basically the digital backbone of our company. Its where all small or mid-size business process recide. Its where we structure and automate processes and get help from multiple AI powered workflows.

Cons: Its actually difficult to understand the full potential of Podio from the beginning. Also it has a fairly steep learning-curve, but once you get the core concepts in place, then its all up to my teams imagination to problem solve and create value!

Pros: Flexibility, ease of use, excellent team collaboration, customizable workflows, and powerful API for external integrations.

Cons: Nothing significant so far, the platform meets ours & our client needs very well. The UI could be more modern, but it works really well and doesn’t affect functionality.
