Podio App Anmeldelser

We run a pretty big real estate team using many different tools all synced into Podio. We got a big team and everyone can use it. If you can imagine it you can do it. We do a ton of automation, programming, push/pull, Ai, etc Beware tho you’ll need a semi full time programmer for anything past the the beginner intermediate stuff we got tons of python globiflow and Zapier systems all bridged into it

This app could be amazing; however, it keeps crashing every single time we open it. No matter how many times we uninstall and reinstall, it continues along this path. Very unfortunate!

DOESNT HAVE A PHONE NUMBER OR EMAIL TO CONTACT COMPANY , EX BUSINESS IS STILL RECEIVING ALL ACTIVITY INFORMATION ON EVERYTHING WE DO IN PODIO EVEN AFTER HIS EMAIL HAS BEEN FULLY REMOVED , I NEED YOU GUYS TO GIVE ME AN EMAIL FOR BETTER COMMUNICATION OR A PHONE NUMBER , ONCE YOU GUYS COMMUNICATE WITH ME AND REMOVE THE EMAIL REQUESTED THEN I WOULD COME BACK AND EDIT THIS REVIEW UNTILL THEN YOU GUYS HAVE TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE

Love Podio!

Love it

This app used to be wonderful but now anytime I want to open an image or pdf it simply redirects me to the online version of the activities feed.

With this recent update I cannot access any files through Podio online or download them on my phone/ tablet. Please fix that!

Can’t view or download attached files anymore. Please fix

Search function is basically missing. There’s a global search, but not search function within each app. Makes navigating and finding a particular item a total nightmare. How could you overlook this!?!

While it takes a learning curve for people who are new to PHP programming, Podio is the perfect platform to develop any kind of automation you need! I am a real estate broker and use it as a CRM, prospecting tool and a data aggregator which helps me keep track of the market in real time. While it took me a long time to develop the tools, and the skill set it takes to program them, it was well worth it. Once you learn how to develop automations, you have a skill set, they could be used in any industry. I wouldn’t trade Podio for the world!

The app crashes frequently and is very slow. Seems like the Podio company is trying to get away with the lowest server speed possible and it’s evident.

Don’t Trust Your Data With Podio. 10 years of Data, and they just deleted it. I was a user of Podio for, maybe close to 10 years, and they were starting to get really popular in my industry (as it were very user friendly as a CRM). And during that time they were bought out by a bigger company, Citrix; And like most times as I’ve noticed, when a bigger company takes over a smaller company they make changes, and those changes usually includes adding or raising fees - but hey, you gotta make a buck some somehow, right, and so the fees were reasonably priced and not a big deal for me and my use. So getting to the point, like many people, if you have a business that you work seasonally, whatever, there may be times of inactivity, which NEVER WAS AN ISSUE BEFORE while pushing on close to 10 years of use and storing my data!!!!! So recently, I had some drastic life events going on, and so I hadn’t logged in for maybe 3 or 4 months (keep in mind, I’ve had longer periods of inactivity a couple time before with NO issue). But once those life events were at least somewhat settled, and it was time to get back to business, I go to log in to find ALL OF MY DATA WIPED!!! Important CONTACTS that took years to build, COMPLETELY gone. I reach out to a support rep, and all they can tell me is, well, “we sent you an email.” YOU SENT ME AN EMAIL!!!!! If I’m not logging into my account with you guys, maybe I have BIGGER STUFF GOING ON that means I haven’t been able to check the email associated with my account with you guys. The email they sent it to was the email that was just for this business and this account, which had been put on pause while I deal with personal matters. Also, I’ve have longer periods of inactivity over the course of close to 10 years AND NEVER HAD THIS ISSUE BEFORE. On “later” research (too bad I had to find this out the hard way as they don’t advertise this part well enough to existing users), apparently, they changed their policy to where they WILL DELETE YOUR DATA WITH THE QUICKNESS!!! …For paid subscription levels, if you go 1 month without logging in or inactivity or your card changed etc, YOUR DATA IS NOW ELIGIBLE TO BE DELETED, and for free subscription level users, if you go 3 months without signing in, YOUR DATA IS ELIGIBLE TO BE DELETED!!!! 10 YEARS OF IMPORTANT BUSINESS CONTACTS, ALL GONE!!!! You couldn’t just export my data in a spreadsheet before just deleting it!!! The point to take home, your data is NO LONGER SAFE IN PODIO CRM. Because of them, I’m now scared to trust safekeeping my business contacts in any CRM for that matter.

They get you started and you take up a bunch of time starting a database for free. Then, after adding like 20 contacts, you learn that you cannot add anyone else or will have to switch to a paid plan. That would be fine, but I don’t think the paid plan is worth $14/month. It’s pretty basic software, and a little bit dated in my opinion. Definitely not worth $168 PER YEAR, EVERY YEAR. I would value this software at a one time $50 license fee. That’s it.

If you could get the app to stop shutting down it would be perfect.

I would love to see how 5-Star reviewers are using this app ( I mean that genuinely). All this app is good for me is receiving notifications and making comments. Theres features I use that I cannot view on the app. I certainly could not start a project from scratch. It’s great for instant notifications and communication but that’s really it.

There are annoyances, like My Views, doesn’t reflect the same format or convenience from the computer model. I like Podio but I think the app can be improved for functional utility.

I cannot imagine following up with my leads without podio, great tool for every small business owner.

I’ve been using Podio for approximately a year. It has a very large learning curve! But when mastered or paid for, Podio is extremely useful!

There’s always some type of anomaly. It’s slow on my end. It’s just annoying.

Glitchy, slow, overwhelming, redundant, user unfriendly.

Trash it won’t let me make an account, whenever I verify it doesn’t do anything.

Not user friendly, not intuitive, and redundant when trying to enter data. Too many tags, too many categories, too many subdivisions to label things that should be simple. Expect to spend more time entering info than reaching out to prospects.

Takes way too long to upload lots of photos and sometimes it don’t work and overall it makes it a hassle sometimes

App crashes when closing out notifications.

I am unable to log into my account on the mobile app. I have been attempting to log into Podio on with the mobile app for the last two months on my iPhone. Every time I attempt to log into the mobile app I see a blank screen, it never officially logs me into my account, or none of my workstations, instead it is completely blank. I use the desktop version of podio regularly and I have the upgraded version which I pay $24 a month but now matter how many times I attempt to log in on my iPhone it never works.

Can’t log in via google which my team uses for email.

The Podio web app is great, but signing in with Google on the mobile version does not work so it’s impossible to use.

You can type in anything into the search bar i.e. last 4 digits of a client’s phone number and it will pull up results. Also great filter options for reports.

I'm trying to verify my account but only continues to stay on the same page where I sign up. It stays on sign up and I have already verified my account 11 times yet still doesn't let me access podio.

This app isn’t actually that bad. Clean easy to use. Similar experience to app navigation of the web if not easier. It Architecturally shows that Podio was clearly designed around mobile first rather then website first when they built this app. Which has its pros and cons but most of our office use Podio entirely web only. So doesn’t do any good for them. The website version of Podio is awful. So as decent as the app is it needs far more work on the website version. I’m also concerned about the lack of feature updates for this app as the last feature related item was 3 years ago. This seems to be in parallel to the lack of improvements to the web app which is a big concern for us and our future with Podio. We will probably end up moving off it as the platform seems dead. Only bug Iv come across and still have that does annoy me about the app is Podio will send me a notification about a tag or follow item. But when I click on it and open the app it gives me a connection error. But if I back out and go into the app again and notification then I can see it again and go to the record. Also some user do report a lot of crashing still as of Dec 2020. I personally haven’t experienced this on iPhone. So assuming it’s Android related and will be opening a ticket with support shortly to look into further but it’s a few users having this not just 1. So FYI Android users.

Now items load sporadically and it claims my connection is at fault. Everything else on my phone works. I’m pretty sad about it.

1. The app keeps crashing every time I open the app & to do anything in it. Sometimes it won’t even open, it’ll crash before anything on the screen actually loads. It’s been doing this for at least 2ish weeks! I noticed there have been other people recently who have said the same, but it was supposed to be fixed with the most recent update. The update did not fix anything for me. 2 days ago, I finally decided to just completely delete the app and re-download it to see if that would help. It seemed to fix it initially, but half way through the day yesterday it started to crash again. Our company uses Podio as our #1 info hub! It’s our lifeline. We put the highest priority on using it to not only track a job’s progress but also to keep record of ALLLLL communication in reference to each job. The continuous crashes are NOT conducive for us to work the most effectively and efficiently. These need the be fixed ASAP! 2. I’ve noticed that the app for iOS has quite a few less capabilities than the Windows app. With the iOS app, you are only able to view the info that has already been inputted in fields, there is no way to input new info into any fields. You aren’t able to change any drop downs, date fields, or text fields. It’s incredibly frustrating. The iOS app needs to be updated to include those capabilities. 3. Notifications. I have full admin access to be able to see all jobs, and I’m assuming it’s because of that, I get notified EVERY SINGLE TIME ANYONE DOES ANYTHING IN ANY JOB. Which means I get literally THOUSANDS of notifications every day. I had to disable notifications because my phone would never stop going off, notifying me of a majority of things I do not need to be notified of. There should be an option for one to be able to choose which kind of notifications they would like to get. If I could ONLY get notifications when I’m either tagged or assigned a task—that would be AMAZING! I often call behind and/or miss tags because they get so buried in all of the other notifications that are irrelevant to me. I like Podio (desktop version) but these limitations have really been are very frustrating and have caused us to start searching for a new CRM that won’t have these kinds of issues.

Thanks for fixing the app. Now I can use it without wanting to throw my phone.

App constantly crashes.

Podio keeps cutting off with new IOS update. Very frustrating!

Please update the app to work with iOS14! It crashes every time I click on something.

Please update it. It keeps crashing

Love the app but it keeps crashing

Random crashing. Reinstalled app but problems remain.

Could be due to iOS 14 but app crashes after about 2 minutes of use. Please update

Very inconvenient. The app crashes no matter what I do.

Today I trying 5 times have registration to this program and all tome i have problems with this. Terrible and not friendly. Not recommend

This tool is extremely malleable/configurable, easy to get started with, and useful for a wide variety of use cases. And it’s actually very very affordable.

The mobile app works well except for ONE VERY IMPORTANT ISSUE. No matter what settings I put into Podio or my phone, not a single notification will display on the Podio app on my phone. It used to work, but no more. Nobody else in my organization can get notifications to work on their iPhones either. This is a critical issue.

Whenever I receive notifications on customer accounts, the app is painfully slow to show me the updates. It’s always faster if I just go to the podio website and check my accounts there.

New update is terrible. You can now swipe down to close the task you’re working on and lose all your progress. If you scroll even slightly it will close you out.

In the new update we can now accidentally close out of any task we are doing by simply dragging down from the top. This is extremely frustrating when you accidentally do it by simply trying to scroll down and end up lose ALL your progress. By far the dumbest thing to come to this app, PLEASE FIX IT!!! It’s clearly slowing down productivity Omg you don’t have to even grab the top bar you can accidentally close it by just scrolling down from the top...who in their right might thought this would be a positive change? If you’re gonna try and be like Apple and modernize your app at least do it right

The new iOS updates have now made this app unusable.

And does not work well on mobile. Many issues
