Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Seamless integration with Salesforce. Nice (Lightning) look & feel. Frequent updates and improvements.
  • We have been using Mission Control for over five years, love Colin and the team's great customer support. This is a tool that will help anyone who needs a PM tool that works seamlessly with Salesforce.
  • We go from Salesforce Lead -> Opportunity -> MC Project with different teams participating at different stages of the cycle. All in one platform. One platform saves us time in training and daily use. One platform provides us with visibility of the end-end cycle from Lead through to delivery.
  • Had to choose one PSA system from several and happy we went with Mission Control. Fantastic system, incredibly intuitive, easy to use and great features!
  • Various features, but the ones I used the most were timeline, team logs and project financials, having all these in the ones place was fantastic.

Cons

  • Meeting manager very basic; needs some development. Gantt chart a little bit buggy.
  • The only con that I could come up with is that there are a ton of features due to the fact that it is a very robust tool, having said that, because we know SFDC it is easy to streamline the features that are important to us.
  • It would be nice to have the ability to work on project plans with outside parties, i.e. customers and partners.
  • To be fully honest, there aren't many glaring cons. They release updates on a regular basis only advancing the system and making it more useful.
  • More flexibility in setting week starting for Timesheet

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Shorter Loop has transformed how we manage our product workflow. Its easy-to-use features streamline task management, team collaboration, and document sharing throughout the agile development process. The platform supports brainstorming, saving and using templates, and efficient task assignment. It helps with resource allocation and links roadmaps to business goals. The feedback system gathers valuable insights from various stakeholders, improving our decision-making. Integrated product analytics and a comprehensive dashboard track product metrics and progress, ensuring smooth execution from discovery to launch. Teams across different functions can collaborate effectively by sharing key documents and updates in one place.
  • I and my product teams, 2 software developer, 2 ui ux designers and head of products use Shorter Loop for my saas crm product, we use the tool for various reasons: 1. Clean UI. 2. Easy to learn, no hand holding needed. 3. For my existing product when I am trying to identify my target audience, the ai powered continuous discovery tool gives me a whole new insight which is well researched i.e. new segment of audiences which I have not targeted right now as I have not thought through it. 4. It creates a better product vision, my audience profile including old n new segments with a lot more deeper insights of pains, goals, needs, aspirations, the tool then helps me create many experiments to set up run on these customer segments to validate these problems n these are so sound that I can identify with the tool's prioritization matrix which one I should prioritize now, in mid term or in long term, etc...
  • The Collaboration feature of Shorter Loop has really made it easy for us to work smoothly. We can invite N number of team members, work together, and can share ideas in real time. Along with this, the Feedback Manager or the Idea Manager, it has helped us a lot in exploring the idea in depth, so that we can decide if we want to go with it or not. The AI-powered Idea Manager is the best feature of the tool.
  • Shorter Loop perfects the product road mapping by prioritizing the right features. It does an amazing job with its simple value and effort matrix/chart by identifying the right features to prioritize from the first day that will be liked by the majority of our customers.
  • - Business model that is tying everything together - needs, pains of persona to value proposition, internal cost, resources, with business objective and revenue goal. - Requirement gathering is easy in the tool in various ways - Idea Manager, setting up experiments and validate them. - Easily save the top feedback items as work items, create epic, story and features easily. - Product post launch metrics - easy to track and set up and get all metrics in one console from web site product page visit, sign up, daily usage, monthly usage, churn, churn propensity, CSAT, NPS and more...

Cons

  • Shorter Loop offers a comprehensive solution with no notable drawbacks.
  • Shorter Loop is continuously coming up with upgraded and advanced features. No dislike at all.
  • There is nothing to dislike about shorter loop tool. I will recommend every company to try it once.
  • Don’t remember anything of such, noting to add to this point.
  • Would be good to have more product roadmap templates and various other ways to prioritize features of the product that customers are looking for.
