What differentiates Guru from other similar products?

Guru is the best at what it is - knowledge management. Other products have flashy features but fall flat at the actual management and creation of knowledge in a database.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Some of the features that make it super accessible - like the Chrome Extension and the Slack integration.

What do you dislike most about this product?

I think the reporting/analytics section can use some improvements to provide more valuable insights.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Consider exactly what your organization needs when it comes to knowledge management - if you need a knowledge platform that's accessible everywhere you're working, easily searchable, and easy to organize, then this tool is for you.
