Salesforce folks, do you know about it? What are you guys using internally? Specifics: - it doesn't show documents that meet search criteria - it is ridiculously slow (30+ seconds) - you can't open more than one document using the same search window - you can't search easily in the current folder - you can't search for documents where are you or someone else are tagged
Yeah, Quip is awful. I’ve noticed Amazon internal tools tend to have terrible search functionality (builderhub being a prime example)
Quip is actually a product Salesforce sells 😣
Yeah my bad, I worded this as if it’s an amazon-built tool. But we use it internally, sadly haha.
+1
way too many bugs too
brush, where are my comments? they keep disappearing and stuff... Quip keeps eating my comments
We’re using Googe Docs instead.
LoL, the company doesn't use its own products
It depends on the team. I mainly see quip - whenever I see google docs it’s usually some outdated doc
Yes, it’s the new Chime.
It’s awful. The fact that Salesforce paid $750m for that crap is beyond my comprehension.
A lot of our team uses gdocs
We laid off the search team to pay Mathew McConaughey
I think the search bar is just HTML tied to no actual functionality. Nothing is ever returned when I search. Quip over rides browsers cntrl + f search functionality, which makes it even worse
I think fundamentally, document search is trash. If you choose to search the whole document, than you just get noise for any document above 1-2 pages. If you choose to only search the headers(i.e title 1-3 ) than you miss out on content that could be crucial. Quip is really built for collaborative document building, with excessive opportunity to comment on every single line. Its search criteria is mediocre, and definitely slow. But if you ever need to build a document, where people are pouring over every single line and word, with tons of back and forth communication, its unmatched. At least quip has some type of folder structure, because trying to find a document/presentation in google docs from last week is impossible in an enterprise setting.
Amazon prime search is also shit
Google search is getting worse everyday
You should try quip search before drawing any parallels. It is really bad.
