We are making strides in this area and simply seeing synergies because there is now a common place to communicate. We have most recently launched our new combined Values and Culture Statement for the company via our digital workspace on LumApps and it has given it a "home" that highlights all the current team member stories being showcased. ----- ### "Easy Breezy – For Admins and Users Alike\!" — 5.0/5 > **Nate** | *1 August 2019* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: As an administrator, I love how easy it is for end-users to use and navigate. Even if they don't take the time to navigate through the top-line navigation we have established or take the time to really learn the site, they can find things very easily with the powerful search tool. Likewise, the ability to create easy-to-use lists or newsfeed widgets also improves the user experience. The native Google drive integration is also stellar – if we have stakeholders who frequently change reference materials, it is easy for them to manage a google drive folder I share with them rather than have them come to me daily with changes. The changes they make in the google folder are automatically reflected on the LumApps page with the corresponding files widget, with no intervention necessary from me. Finally, the ability to create email newsletters within LumApps is AMAZING\! I use that feature twice weekly. > > **Cons**: The page-building interface can sometimes be very slow and very RAM-intensive, bringing page editing to a crawl. > > Overall, working with LumApps every day is a breeze. It is nowhere near as difficult or arcane as other platforms I have used or administered. The LumApps team is full of nice and helpful people as well. ----- ### "LumApps, the less intuitive tool for both users & administrators" — 2.0/5 > **Aina** | *12 March 2020* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Perhaps that there are a lot of widgets... which at the end ends up being a handicap because some of them are not useful and can't be never used. > > **Cons**: - Not a responsive website. It's a nightmare to design an image and post it so that you can see it ok in every device\! - They told us there would be an app coming soon 2 years ago and we are still waiting. The company where I work has a lot of employees that work in production centers and don't have a computer, so in the end, we still communicate mostly via offline. - Sometimes, there are errors while creating a page that are inexplicable. That means that help from technicians is needed but they take to long to sort out the problem. - You lose a lot of time uploading content. I am also the web admin of another website and it takes me less than half of the time to publish something on that website than on lumapps. One of the main reasons is because Lumapps is not really prepared for multilanguage. - When there are a lot of people logging in at the same time the connection is really slow and sometimes the website doesn't even respond. - It is difficult to connect it with Google Analytics. In our case, we have 7 UA codes and 2 GTM codes on Lumapps and the technicians don't know where they come from... The analytics from Lumapps is also really poor... ----- ### "Migrating content, updating content" — 4.0/5 > **Timothy** | *1 April 2020* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: It took a bit of used to as a non-IT person when migrating from an old Google Sites instance. But the original set of widgets met our needs. > > **Cons**: Deprecated widgets seem to suit you rather than us. Old Google Sites had a Table of Contents which allowed you to link to a specific item on a page, this doesn't exist in Lumapps. Moving widgets in Edit mode requires multiple drag and drop actions and/or reducing Browser size to perform. The Style settings are not good - can't delete old trial setting and can't update a setting you have saved. No scrolling text widget or functionality. The drop down lists in the left hand panel are set to a number of options then stop displaying so you have to type the first letter of option you want for them to show. > > It allowed us to design a Visual Identity compliant site which Google Sites didn't. It has some good features and some annoying oversights / issues. ----- ### "GREAT PRODUCT OVERALL BUT GET READY FOR SOME QUIRKS AND KINKS" — 5.0/5 > **Shane** | *31 March 2020* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the design of the product. I'm a sucker for Google Material Design. I also love the permissions features. Managing content is also a breeze with the permissions workflow and the timing features on content are wonderful. > > **Cons**: I understand that the software has to be rigid in many ways because of the permissions but designing in the software requires way too much CSS. Simple features like choosing the layout of your sub-menus, custom colors, or basic layout is clunky or non-existent. The end-user experience is great but it feels like little thought went into the administrative user experience. Overall, that is disappointing. > > With LumApps? Great. But the implementation consulting firm you forced us into was horrible, disappointing and they are just plain bad at their jobs. If I had to go back and make the decision myself, that would be a deal-breaker. Forcing us into a $30K implementation consulting firm contract that did nothing to help was like setting money on fire. Totally useless and disappointing. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/262109/lumapps?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/262109/lumapps) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
