About

Guru is the AI Source of Truth for your company. It’s an AI knowledge platform that connects everything your teams know—across chats, docs, and apps—into one trusted layer that delivers cited, permission-aware answers everywhere you work. Guru automatically connects to tools like Slack, Teams, Google Drive, Confluence, Salesforce, Zendesk, and more, so employees and AI assistants can access verified knowledge directly in their workflow. Every answer shows where it came from, inherits existing permissions, and stays accurate automatically through built-in verification and expert updates. By connecting knowledge, making it accessible everywhere, and keeping it trustworthy automatically, Guru eliminates manual searches and ensures everyone—human or AI—works from the same truth.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • As our business continues to grow, getting new employees up to speed as well as communicating changed to existing employees has been a challenge in the past. Our business is constantly changing, be it pricing, operating procedures, vendors, etc. Guru allows us one place for our team to go to find relevant, up to date info that was previously scattered throughout multiple channels, or inside the heads of the owners. With AI functionality in Guru our employees can ask common language questions and find relevant info quickly.
  • Lightning-Fast Answers: Guru's AI-powered search delivers rapid access to information, ensuring that I can find answers to my queries within seconds. This speed and efficiency save valuable time, allowing me to focus on important tasks. Intuitive Interface: Guru seamlessly integrates the functionalities of an intranet and a wiki into one powerful platform. Its user-friendly interface makes navigating through vast amounts of information a breeze, enhancing productivity and reducing frustration. Considerate of Time: By providing a centralized repository of knowledge, Guru eliminates the need to constantly interrupt colleagues with repetitive questions. This not only saves my time but also respects the time of others, fostering a culture of efficiency and collaboration. Comprehensive Knowledge Management: Guru's extensive database ensures that I have access to all relevant information, enabling me to get exactly what I need quickly. Whether it's company policies, project updates, or best practices, Guru has it all, streamlining decision-making and problem-solving processes. Security: With Guru's focus on enterprise-level security, I can trust that sensitive information is protected. Its robust security measures provide peace of mind, allowing me to utilize the platform confidently.
  • -Great AI-enabled, tech-driven intranet solution -Easy set up -Integrates seamlessly with Slack, Google Drive, etc -The Answers feature changes the dynamic of how end-users interact with the application from an intranet website/shared folder to an LLM with a curated knowledge base -High usability minimizes user training needs and drives adoption without the need for a complex implementation strategy -Sales lead becomes CSM, so no awkward handoff to a stranger and wasted time re-explaining your use case(s) -Pricing structure aligns value with cost, increases with user adoption -Verification functionality keeps the knowledge base accurate in an auditable manner and solves the issue of iteration control -Updating cards and connecting to files/folders in Drive is very easy
  • - Auto archive tool is incredibly useful for temporary changes such as A/B tests our various product teams run - Answers gives our support agents the info they need in the most efficient way possible - Announcements keep the team updated on our org's regular product enhancements
  • Gurus genius lies in its reliability - you can trust that the information you’re seeing is accurate and up to date via its various ownership and verification features. It also simplifies your teams workflow by offering up the information folks need where they need it. The collection and tagging features are also smart. I’ve not yet dug into their rapidly growing AI offerings but am excited to do so as I know more time savings are in store.

Cons

  • I wish I would've been using this years ago - its an instrumental part of our business now.
  • Learning Curve: While Guru's interface is intuitive, mastering its full capabilities may require some initial investment in learning. However, the platform offers ample resources and support to aid users in becoming proficient.
  • -Not the cheapest option, has per-seat-per-month pricing -Bulk import is great, but the formatting doesn't translate well from docx files, requiring time-consuming reformatting -Ability to track card use, but not at the user level
  • It would be great if Answers source documentation had the same update reminders as Guru cards do.
  • Guru was a bit behind in offering enterprise search but have quickly caught up - again, giving all teams the info they need whether native to Guru or housed elsewhere.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The tool offers many features within a simple layout that is easy to understand and navigate. That leads to a good user experience.
  • The tool suits businesses of all sizes, and we are the practical proof. Our team size was 10 when we first started using ProProfs, and we used to operate with 40 pages of content. 4 years down the line, we are a team of 180 and operate with 200+ content pages.
  • The tool made it easy for us to import data from Word docs, Excel sheets, and Powerpoint presentations. The tool also provided us with an option for exporting the knowledge base as an HTML or PDF.
  • ProProfs Knowledge Base offers several integrations with tools like Zendesk, Freshdesk, Slack, Google Analytics, and many others. These integrations have helped us make the most of our knowledge base by using it in combination with various other tools.
  • In our experience of 20 years, we haven’t come across a tool so simple yet so powerful and rich. Add to it the value for money it offers and the tool becomes an excellent solution for companies looking for a powerful tool that can fit their budget as well as expectations.

Cons

  • It worked fine for me and my team. No complaints as of now.
  • The existing content templates work great, but offer fewer variations of designs.They need to add some fresh designs to their templates.
  • We are satisfied with its performance on PC and iOS. However, the tool sometimes underperforms on Android.
  • The tool lags in speed at times but in no time, it starts working at its usual pace.
  • Every tool has room for improvement. So does ProProfs Knowledge Base. It would be nice to see a more advanced version of the software.
