Podio login

In the last few days, logging into Podio has been a real headache. When it did work, it was incredibly slow. What is your experience here?

Never had a problem with Tape. Always logged in smoothly.

We made the switch a few weeks ago. Iā€™m familiar with the usual Podio login issues as well, but since moving here, Iā€™ve had no login problems at all.

Having started my journey with Podio back in 2013 I can confidently say that Podio is broken and has been broken for multiple years now. Itā€™s unfortunate because it was a game changer when it came to market.

We migrated to Tape ~2 years ago and have never looked back.

My teamā€™s favorite features are:

  • It simply works (sounds weird to say, but Podio is regularly broken)
  • Updates without having to refresh the page
  • They LOVE the way tasks work over here -especially the checklist feature

We have yet to have any unexpected downtime or failed automations in Tape.

Weā€™ve also never had any issues logging in, and our team has been online almost daily for over a year.

My Podio login was down for nearly the entire weekend as well. The support chat wasnā€™t available, either. It feels like things are just going from bad to worse.

@Alex @AnaS Just to clarify, what exactly do you mean by ā€˜Podio loginā€™ so we can better answer your questions about how it works here?

Do you mean it doesnā€™t recognize your username/password, or that you canā€™t access the Podio login page at all?

@DigiTom Iā€™m talking about the Podio login here: https://podio.com/login

Theyā€™re talking about all of the down time in Podioā€¦ Their last update broke more stuff, again :disappointed:

@1F2Ns is right on this one, appreciate the tip!
@Alex your login issue might be related to some recent issues. Hereā€™s what I found over the past few days:

If youā€™re still having trouble with your login, reaching out to the support team is probably your best move, or just come here.

Interesting. All I saw: Sorry, it seems Podio is down right now

Could someone responsible for the Podio login or the current issues join this discussion? Iā€™m sure more people have the same problems and are interested in knowing whatā€™s no longer working with Podio.

Sorry, @AnaS I donā€™t think thatā€™s possible. This is actually the Tape community :slight_smile: Theyā€™re two different tools.
I havenā€™t had any login issues with Tape, and honestly, I feel much more comfortable using Tape, so I donā€™t follow Podio issues anymore. If Podio login keeps causing problems, it might be time to consider alternatives. Iā€™d recommend giving Tape a try: https://get.tapeapp.com/

Itā€™s totally understandable if youā€™re feeling a bit confused because Podioā€™s help/support can be tricky.

For support on the Podio platform, youā€™ll want to check out this link:
https://support.sharefile.com/s/

If youā€™re new to Tape and ended up here by mistake thinking it was a Podio support community, welcome to Tapeā€”itā€™s just like Podio, but it just works and has the features you want.

Here is their roadmap

Sorry about that! I just clicked on a Reddit post where someone was having the same issues with Podio login as me, and I thought I was in the Podio community. I didnā€™t even realize ShareFile was connected to Podio, and I just found out Podio was sold again! A bit of confusion, but it seems that getting a little off track has its advantages. :blush: I just signed up, and Tape looks really nice! Weā€™ll test it with the team now. Are there many Podio users switching to Tape?

Hi @AnaS, I think a lot of people have moved over to Tape, like I did. Tape just works, and we really appreciate the innovative featuresā€”just take a look at the dashboards!

@AnaS just to let you know, I started this conversation and shared the link on Reddit.
Apologies for any confusion; I was just really frustrated with Podio after a weekend of non-stop issues. Decided to give Tape a try, and Iā€™m honestly pretty impressed so far. We really like the charts. Our team has already imported all our data into Tape, and I hope weā€™ll be fully switched over next week.

In addition: Today, once again, Podio isnā€™t working on my end. I keep getting this message: ā€œThe server took too long to respond, please try againā€ every time I try to add a relation. And just yesterday, we got an email from the new Podio owner saying, Progress is making everything better. Hard to believe at this point.

Quick recap - 1 month of Tape with our team!

From day one, the entire team has been happy with Tape. Over the past 4 weeks, Tape has introduced more features than Podio did in 4 years! :joy:

A big thank you for all your support and motivationā€”it truly made a difference! :blush:
And @team Tape, youā€™ve been doing such an amazing jobā€”Iā€™m excited to see more of your great work next year too. Just booked the annual plan. :wink:

Wishing you all a wonderful end to the year and a fantastic holiday season!

Itā€™s great to read this! In our busy world, itā€™s nice to pause and say thank you. It reminds me how much I enjoy being part of this community. Iā€™ve learned so much here, and I really appreciate it.

And a huge thanks to the Tape team for this year! My highlights so far:

  • Charts
  • New home
  • the amazing community support

Canā€™t wait for next year. Wishing everyone a happy holiday season!
