Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Integration with Miro provides access to robust diagramming tools, generous free plans allows unlimited team boards.
  • Method Grid allows us to map anything our team does. Very simple grid system. Highly flexible. It allows to display documents, external links, videos, checklist, images and cloud documents. Easy, quick and fast to pickup. Organises memorialize and project data and process steps. User friendly. Intuitive tool.
  • This is absolutely an amazing tool to manage your projects with your organization. Our business project management has significantly improved and makes everything much easier. The great thing about Method Grid is that you can provide updates and comments to your team members. It offers great customization features that many will enjoy.
  • Method Grid is an intuitive way to store knowledge for easy retrieval by other members of our team. It is totally configurable to fit your processes and set up a taxonomy that works for your business. Colleagues find it much easier to find the current, approved information they need than storing in a network or cloud drive due to the structural design being consistent with our processes. The software is constantly being enhanced with new features and the team is highly responsive to suggestions for improvements. It's now possible to clone grids and have checklists in them. We use this as an on-boarding tool to make sure everyone goes through a consistent set of information to ensure everyone is using the same processes.
  • Intuitive interface and simple structure actually make this a surprisingly powerful and flexible tool for managing many aspects of a professional services business IP.

Cons

  • Lack of advanced whiteboarding features compared to complex tools, No Gantt charts or calendar views for project planning.
  • No dislikes. Great software to share and capture knowledge.
  • At first it can take quite some time for your business to find all the great functions this software has to offer. Once you have learned everything, the whole process is so simple and very helpful.
  • It's free-form nature, whilst giving massive flexibility, means you need to spend some time to plan out a structure. We started a bit too ad-hoc and needed to restructure how we store data. I would recommend creating a steering team (any proper implementation should have one!).
  • We were an early user and new features have continuously been added.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • This has transformed our onboarding process and made my life 1000% easier. The screen record - upload tool makes it simple to record 2-5 min videos of each task and the great text editing features lets me make it into something visually appealing. We have tried and failed several times in the past to use screen recordings to train, but this has broken through and provided the best solution yet by far. Also, this software is incredibly affordable which allowed us to use it for our whole organization and we will soon use it for general HR announcements and re-training of current employees, not just onboarding.
  • Really easy to build training documentation, including images, videos, and an intuitive way to create step-by-step courses. Really easy for managers to track which employees have undergone which training subjects. Very simple and easy-to-use design.

Cons

  • When creating lessons and recording videos using their recording app, there can be a few bugs. I have recorded a few videos and they didn't end up uploading but i have since found out how to avoid the bugs. When using the app as a learner or employee, however, there are no bugs and it's very snappy and easy to use.
  • I wish we could upload native videos, instead of just screen recording or YouTube. I read that it is on the roadmap though.
