Hive: Collaboration and Project Management
Hive is a project management and collaboration platform built for fast-moving teams. It combines tasks, messages, files, and project planning into a single workspace. The goal is to give teams fewer reasons to jump between apps.
Here is why it’s effective: productivity often drops when communication is spread across email, chat, and task tools. Hive keeps conversations and projects connected so nothing gets lost.
Let’s break it down:
- **Project Views:** Switch between Gantt charts, Kanban boards, calendars, or table views.
- **Messaging:** Chat directly inside Hive without leaving your tasks.
- **Automation:** Build workflows that assign tasks, set due dates, or send reminders automatically.
- **Integrations:** Works with Slack, Zoom, Google Drive, and over a thousand other tools.
Examples in practice:
- A marketing team uses Hive to plan campaigns, track assets, and communicate in one space.
- A consulting firm uses Hive to manage client projects and automate recurring workflows.
Next steps: Hive can feel like a full office in digital form. Start small by creating a single project, invite your team, and test different project views. Once comfortable, explore automation to save even more time.
