Here’s why people don’t like Whale

The software is not very user-friendly
Whale review on G2
When reaching out to Support with issues they only reply is, “It’s clearly stated on the website”. The custom ability is very minimal. Every employee can see every option and nothing can be customized. Custom services are poor and unwilling to be of assistance to a paying customer – 11–50 employees
Whale review on GetApp
Nothing in particular that I dislike about Whale but starting from scratch with all of our SOP’s was sort of overwhelming. It’s very manual to install the suggestions. Once everything is installed, it’s epic but it can take some time so don’t wait long to do it. Start while you’re creating your documentation in Whale
Whale review on G2
The editor sometimes does not copy the style exactly like you had it set up in MS Word.
Whale review on a comparison website
Unfortunately, the update time is very much lagging, which is less helpful. I was using this to try to see whales on a recent trip and I was in the area where whales were located, but didn’t see the updates to this app until hours later despite checking it and refreshing it frequently
Whale review on an app store
I like this app but it continues to use location services for up to an hour after I stopped using the app … I have it set to use the precise location while using the app
Whale review on an app store
Colors that appear correctly in chrome are red in Whale? For example Facebook emotes that should be yellow are burgundy, buttons that should be green are maroon, it’s very odd.
Whale review on a comparison website
The whale client wanting the discount didn’t work out. Mostly due to drama before we even started… the main guy / owner requested we meet with him personally but I guess he forgot… 2nd time, main guy requested us to be there because he wanted to be there as well but he showed up an hour late…Third time he asked us to stop by and meet with him and his finance guy to review everything and when we went there neither one was there… Their attitude was shitty before we even started

Integration and compliance information

Summary of connectors and integrations

What exactly is Tallyfy and how does it differ from GetWhale?

While UseWhale focuses solely on documenting processes, Tallyfy goes far beyond documentation by actively tracking and managing workflows in real-time. It eliminates workflow chaos by automatically monitoring every step, saving around 2 hours per person daily. Unlike static documentation tools, Tallyfy ensures processes are actually followed, delegated, and improved over time.

What is Whale used for?

UseWhale is primarily a process documentation tool that lets you create and store standard operating procedures (SOPs). However, documentation alone doesn’t guarantee that anyone will actually follow or even look at processes. Without active tracking and management, documented processes often become outdated and ignored.

Why is documentation-only software like Whale not enough?

Documentation is just the first small step in process improvement. The real challenges come from questions like “What’s the status of this?”, “Did you complete that?”, or “What’s next?” – which documentation tools can’t answer. Tallyfy solves these by actively tracking processes in real-time, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.

How does Tallyfy handle process improvement compared to Whale?

Tallyfy enables continuous improvement through real-time feedback and metrics. Users can easily comment on specific steps, and these suggestions go directly to process owners for review. This creates a living, breathing improvement cycle that’s missing in static documentation tools like Whale.

How does AI integration differ between Tallyfy and Whale?

Tallyfy integrates AI thoughtfully and practically, going beyond basic chatbot functionality. It can automatically migrate existing SOPs, handle file uploads, and even control your computer for self-driven automation. This practical approach to AI delivers real value, unlike generic AI implementations.

Does Whale have country-specific pricing discounts?

Unlike Tallyfy, Whale doesn’t offer GDP-based pricing discounts. Tallyfy provides lifetime discounts up to 90% off based on each country’s GDP per capita, making it accessible worldwide. This thoughtful approach ensures fair pricing based on local purchasing power.

Is Whale owned by venture capitalists?

Yes, Whale is venture-backed, which often means pressure for rapid growth and potential pricing changes. Tallyfy maintains independence from VC funding, allowing us to focus purely on customer needs and stable, predictable pricing.

How do security standards compare between Whale and Tallyfy?

Tallyfy maintains strict compliance with BIMI and HSTS security standards, while Whale’s security features are more basic. Tallyfy also offers free Single Sign On (SSO) integration, which is typically a premium feature in other tools.

Where can I see customer reviews of Tallyfy?

You can view our customer success stories and reviews at https://tallyfy.com/customers/. These showcase real implementations and benefits across various industries.
