Customers have mixed and largely negative experiences with Beekeeper’s ordering and website functionality, with 107 negative mentions compared to 42 positive ones out of 168 total references. Reviews consistently highlight technical issues such as app crashes, failed uploads, and persistent notifications, especially around messaging and profile updates. The overall sentiment has trended downward over time, with ratings dropping to 1★ in both October 2025 and June 2026, despite brief improvements in November 2025 and March 2026.

The pattern suggests ongoing reliability problems that have not been fully resolved, even as the platform evolves under LumApps.

Practical takeaways

For users considering Beekeeper, it’s important to be aware of the current technical limitations, especially around app stability and basic features like profile updates and notifications. If your team relies on consistent, real-time communication, the app may not be reliable enough for critical tasks. However, if your organization values mobile-first internal messaging and is willing to work around known bugs, it may still serve as a functional tool. Consider testing the app with your team before full rollout to assess performance in your specific environment.
