Reviews of MangoApps
TinyTake Saves Me Tons Of Time
Pros:
I use TinyTake for a versatile snipping tool that allows me to quickly and easily capture any region and place it where I need it, or into a file for later. The screen recording tool (up to 5 minutes per clip on my free use app) has been a tremendous boost for creating training and informational videos at work.
Cons:
The touch-up tools for editing a screenshot are not strong. Maybe that's expected as this is FREE, and I can drop the snipped region into any program in seconds. But there are times I would like to do that work native in TinyTake, and since the option is there, I include that in my rating.

Femi, thank you for your review, feedback and willingness to recommend MangoApps. Please let us know if you are still finding that there are feature gaps or lack of connectivity with external tools. We've grown a lot just this year alone, and I hope if we haven't already addressed your extended needs, that we are sure to note them for our product roadmap. Thank you again!
It has been an engaging tool - allowing for easy interaction within the team and entire agency
Pros:
- It allows for all the staff to know what is going on at the same time, everyone gets the same info - Easily able to share resources and updates - Great way to invite people to events and keep everything organized - private message feature allows for seamless communication - project and team groups are great for coordinating with many people - Intranet is great for HR use and agency wide updates - Love that it is connected to LinkedIn - Fun and easy to use like Facebook - Easy to compose posts
Cons:
- I find that the mobile app is not as user friendly - Even after years of use, cannot really understand the purpose of primary and secondary interactions... don't understand the purpose of separating them

Thank you for taking the time to review MangoApps! We appreciate your feedback. I will be sure to pass your feedback along. Cheers!
My experience has been nice. I've used MangoApps before now and its a great means of communication.
Comments:
Mangoapps made my onboarding easy.
I find it easy to assign tasks to team members.
The wiki functionality is very useful because it gives our developers a pool of information the can always refer to as well as update if need be.
Pros:
The existence of groups. Ability to create wikis for developers to study. The mention notification Badges - its fun Great place for proper onboarding of new employees.
Cons:
I'd prefer if I could view content of any group but the extra functionality will be not to be able to post comments. I always have to make requests to join a group where I need to access specific information.

Great third party tool that seamlessly does what you wanted to do
Comments: While definitely a compliment, TinyTake has become one of those apps I forget about, it's there and I use it, without it taking effort or thought, it has become part of my workflow.
Pros:
TinyTake is one of those apps that answers a question, you normally sit in front of your laptop and want to do something, but you aren't sure how and or if you can. When it comes to screen capturing, recording, sharing and editing, TinyTake answers any question you might have around these functions. It has a great set of core functionality that is free to use, and if you wanted to delve deeper into the video side, you can go Premium.
Cons:
Nothing has bothered me to this point, and the way I use the software, it hasn't not been able to do something I wanted to do.

Great Support and Easy to Use
Pros:
I like how much support we got from the Mango team to get the product up and running. Also we were able to get this tool up in a very short time!
Cons:
The customization aspect. It was hard customizing some of the overall css styles for the site

Mango is a must!
Pros:
Love the customization and scalability for our organization.
Cons:
There's a lot of clicking to accomplish relatively simple tasks.
Incredible service! Incredible help!
Comments: Communication and collaborations with my team everyday!
Pros:
Easy to setup! User Friendly! Great features! The service we got from the first contact with Mango was really great! The service is fantastic and the features are convenient!
Cons:
The shared files are a bit difficult to get used to if you are not good with computers, but setting up the files was really easy!

Incredible customer service
Pros:
It allows real-time phone tree navigation and manipulation and includes some valuable reports during that time.
Cons:
There have been a few small kinks and things don't always work the way it should (as with any software company that is just getting started)

Great Product with Ease of Use
Pros:
Everyday I find new thing I like about MangoApps, the notifications aren't in your face (which I really like) . The document search works really well and file sharing is super easy too!
Cons:
We have all our associates on our application and I'd love for their names to be included in the search bar, but that just might be how our company has it set up !
Mangoapps review
Comments: We have found that MangoApps allows us to attach and share documents that need to be viewed by an entire department in one location. If they belong to the specific group or department, they have the ability to go in and edit documents and save it a a new revision. This feature help when we need to have documents that others outside the group cannot see. We also have the Intranet page that allows us to post content that everyone in the entire company can view. We post a variety of content like thank you letters from customers, employee wedding photos, baby photos, etc. This allows everyone to go to one location.
Pros:
I really like the ability to create different groups and departments. This being a business specific application, it is very important to be able to break out content that is specific for each group or department. This allows users to not be overwhelmed with content that does not pertain to them. I have been using this software for a few years now and I can honestly say that it has evolved over the years they have spent a significant amount of time making changes to better suit the end user.
Cons:
I feel that updates are pushed out to the web and client with hardly any warning. This makes it diffficult if we have instructions created on how to navigate to a specific area in Mango and then they make changes to the location.

Alternatives Considered:
Great software, needs support development
Comments: Our firm has gained scale and the organization of our documents has expanded exponentially since implementing.
Pros:
Ability to organize files and create an intranet with links to specific documents and an ability to maintain organization. Lots of special features.
Cons:
1. Ability to block users from deleting items that they upload 2. Support is among the lowest we have experienced. The chat room is rarely open. Responses to service requests often never come and it is at least 24 hours before a response is received. 3. The document approval process needs development.
Mango Apps
Comments: I am please with Mango Apps. I like that it is an online sharing board. I like to feel connected to others with my similar position and ideas around the world.
Pros:
The best features are the communities! I belong to several and read others posts everyday. You gain good ideas, can share documents and research easily and navigate your way through reports!
Cons:
I don't feel like there is anything I dislike about the software. I have it on my desktop and my phone and haven't really had issues.
Alternatives Considered:
Easy to Use, Cost Effective Collaboration Platform
Pros:
MangoApps is highly customizable and easy to use, and can be adapted to a number of different contexts. I really liked the file module, and the multiple permission levels and easy to use privacy settings. I think in general file sharing capabilities are a big strength. I think it's also the best value on the market for this type of employee intranet/online collaboration platform, especially for smaller companies or for projects (I used it on a long-term, multi-partner project, for context).
Cons:
The calendar management section of the platform is unfortunately nowhere near as effective as a Gcal or Outlook calendar. I also think the project management tools could use some improvement. Additionally, if you and your company do not have O365, or are looking to use file collaboration with clients who do not have Microsoft licenses, Mango does not support file collaboration in platform without the use of Microsoft online.
MangoApps Review
Comments: We've used since 2013 I believe, it's been a great collaboration tool and useful to get things out of email and store shareable (thats the key) data in one place. I like it!
Pros:
Easy collaboration in the feeds. Teams, groups, and projects make it nice to only see what the things you're involved in and not everything going on in the company. I like the Intranet, we use it to share company information, employee accomplishments, and even the menu for the cafe downstairs.
Cons:
When you want to view a task from the feeds it opens in a pop up view and it not useful because you don't see the comments, I always have to "copy link" then paste that into the browser. Trackers, the line number is static, so it you sort the numbers stay the same, so if someone reference a line you may not be looking at the same thing if you sorted, there needs to be an actual unique Id.

MangoApps Is Beneficial
Pros:
What I like most about this software is the opportunities it creates to sync together our distanced community.
Cons:
The only thing I'd improve about this software is that it has me re-enter my password and username after a few hours of not using it. [Even when I hit the "remember me" function.]
I never see me Mango alerts
Pros:
not much I cant honestly say there is anything it does well that I feel is indispensable
Cons:
i only use it in my office. i never remember to use it on my phone and everyone just texts anyway. mine doesn't alert me visually when I have messages. I finally figured out my volume was too low to hear the audible alert so I think that's ok. the font is tiny in the messages. since we have a fiber optic line email is so quick im not sure why we need mango. most messages are impossible to delete

TinyTake is Awesome
Comments: So far the program has worked flawlessly and made it easy to share my screenshots in a meaniful way with fellow employees and clients.
Pros:
It makes it easy to capture what you want from the screen, annotate what you want to highlight, and paste to documents and/or email.
Cons:
It requires you to use Shift along with Control + C instead of just Control + C for copying what you have ready for pasting. It is only something you have to learn and is not much of an issue.

Kevin, thank you for taking the time to review TinyTake and provide feedback! I'm glad to see that it is working well for you and your business. Cheers!
It has increased our overall communication and capturing information.
Pros:
The collaboration and ability to direct the information to the right people, teams etc. We can troubleshoot issues in a more effective way than our business software. The search ability makes it a invaluable resource over trying to find things in email. We use Mango every day and have really built our company culture around the capabilities and efficiency it creates.
Cons:
Sometimes it can be hard to understand the best way or best practice for how to deliver the information. Teams, projects, departments etc all have different functions and you have to really understand them and utilize them properly.

Very user friendly app that can be synchronised with various platforms
Comments: Excellent
Pros:
I like all the applications that are on Mango app and there are very rare technical glitches
Cons:
Not much to say as an employee, liked all features
High business value due to the number of useful modules. Very irritating billing.
Comments: Keeps the whole company on one page.
Pros:
Range of modules (wikis, posts, groups, projects, calendars, etc). No apparent limits on data storage.
Cons:
Many international debit/credit cards don't work on the payment platform, and to make matters worse the company shuts off access to your account as soon as a payment fails. Many complaints on this have had no impact.

I use it to manage my projects and share files, tasks, ideas with my colleagues. Great tool
Comments: I am able to manage my projects in a very easy and visual way. I can share everything with my colleagues and also with our customers, and access it from anywhere.
Pros:
I like the look and feel, the ease for managing my projects and tasks, and sharing what we need with my colleagues
Cons:
The app has evolved a lot, but still misses some features I would like to have when I am not at the office.

Ease of Use and Frequent Updates
Pros:
I like how easy it is to navigate and also use. I mostly use the posting/wiki/tracker tools which are very user friendly. I also enjoy how often the sofware is updated.
Cons:
Sometimes there are glitches that don't get fixed. Most recently, saving a post as a draft and then when it does get posted it isn't at the top of the feed, it is buried toward the bottom when it was originally drafted (instead of when it was published).

Outstanding
Comments: Collaboration with organizations around the nations.
Pros:
This program has been so valuable in my line of work. As organizations around the country work on providing high quality services to children and families and strive to meet expected markers, we can all collaborate and share strategies that have worked for us as well as challenges we are facing.
Cons:
Some of the repetitive items in the program.
