Flock is great for intra-office communication. It has a lot of bots and features, and they keep improving it every now and then. The poll and scheduled reminders have been quite useful in my team.
Oh many things. In particular, the features of changing display density, notes/files, do not disturb, and the reminder bot.
Replies to a specific message show up *above* the message instead of below, which works for emails but is a bit disorienting in a messenger, and the fact that I don't have the option to not show preview of a website link that I might have added in my message.

We have been able to disseminate messages quick and easily to group. Easy for people in multiple locations to communicate among each other quickly. Lots of great features.
Easy to use. Can use on multiple devices, and no download necessary. Takes polls, easy for group conversations, great features.
YOu have to pay additional for certain features like going back in the history of conversations.

It solved a lot issues related to internal office communication and the speed of software makes its a way better product in comparison to other products in same category. It also has Emojis, so, yeah, this is another awesome feature.
The most useful and important feature of Flock is its speed and ease of usage. The features such as group creation, setting reminders, profile info are very helpful and strategically places to offer the best working of this communicator software.
The very frequent and mandatory updates sometimes create lag in the software.

Great chat tool. We can create multiple channels and we can create to-do based on channels.
To-dos is the best feature which is included in chat tool.
Don't see yet any single feature which I like least. Everything looks awsome

Easily able to manage my team remotely.
We love the user interface. It is extremely easy to use. The another thing I loved about flock is that we experienced zero bugs in our use so far!
So far nothing, however, I requested a feature from the flock team and it is still pending approval from their technical team. If the feature is implemented I would be very happy!

Easy to communicate with other team members not only while in the office, but remotely as well. Like that it is separate from other social media platforms; we use it solely for work-related connections.
I can't figure out how to delete more than one message at a time. I can only figure out how to delete one message, rather than an entire conversation.

1. Easily connect to internal stakeholders. 2. Communication is smooth
Easy to use. Easily connected to internal stakeholders at work. It's very user friendly. Can be accessed on laptop and phone both.
Flock is down sometimes but I understand that there are days like that. You guys have been extremely proactive in updating us abt the same hence no complaints!

It is very easy to use. And contains various useful functions such as reminders, to-dos, etc.

I used to think it was another technology piece that would add more chaos to my workday, but it actually simplifies collaboration and communication between colleagues.
quick communication with colleagues: I can see if my text is delivered, read and I can react to what I am reading with emojis' etc. Hopefully it's as good as being in the same room with them.
I don't like the dashboard. it is cluttered and not attractive. Everything looks the same and when I first used it I couldn't even figure out the simplest actions.

Easy to manage team and share files and notes with the team
Flock fills the gap of tasks management and team communication at one place. We always wanted to have a task management and communication at one place and flock has solved the problem here. With unlimited chat history you never loss the conversation. Sharing files and notes are very easy when compared to other team management software. I definitely recommend this for every team.
Nothing much they have all the box ticked

Easier communication within office!
We are not a big team and were looking for an easy way to communicate in the office without having to do so by e-mail. Flock is easy to use and it is very straight forward. You can always have a one on one conversation with someone or you can have a group chat. We love how user friendly it is!
The only thing would be that when you want to delete a thread you have to do so one by one. It would be easier to delete a whole thread not message by message!

I had to set up the Institute's Senate Teams on a platform and I chose Flock - it made my work so much convenient, I could assign tasks to people and they'd be active on the respective channels. (WhatsApp groups in the past didn't work out so well)
The division of channels/teams in a hierarchical manner within the same organization is notable. It makes intra-team and inter-team communication very convenient. The integration with google drive, organization of links and files shared on the channels makes it easier to locate them in the future.
I think notifications about people joining my flock channel as an external personal channel could be avoided since they don't provide me with much and aren't so useful.

Need to talk among departments and within groups. We do this effectively with little effort thanks to flock.
Ability to message group and also individual via same window interface. Also has phone app and do not disturb
Sometimes you get emails about missed comunications sometimes there are none and no idea why. voting system is confusing.

At this stage we work on scheduling, job and responsibility assignments, follow up, updates, etc. using Flock to keep the entire team on the same page. It has proven to be simple and effective to use.
The collaborative features are what I like most about this software. It helps me track what other team members are doing, engage in discussions and be part in collaborative decision making. It helps give cohesiveness to our virtual team.
None that I can think of... I would be interested in seeing if things can be customized at a later date.

Overall, Flock has made virtual communication between our entire business as well as small sub-groups effortless. This software is especially useful for those who have to work from home, who miss a meeting, or for managers to send out announcements and reminders.
Flock is an easy to use software that did not take me along time to get the hang of. A communication software like Flock is a valuable platform to communicate with coworkers as a whole or within sub-groups for small projects within a business. Integrating all of the coworkers was a simple process which allowed for the smooth integration of online communication for our business.
With all of the features that Flock offers, such a videochat, the ability to set reminders, make to-do list, it is hard to imagine additional features that would improve the main objective of software like Flock.

Amazing. Thank you Flock team.
Flock has been instrumental in our daily communication in the company. The groups, individual chats experience is very useful. The admin only groups have played a good role in communicating only the important things.
Audio and video calling feature enhancement is needed.

Much better team collaboration and time management
Cross-platform operation, integrations with other apps/software, ease of use and overall speediness of the app
The desktop app could use some optimizations, as sometimes it's slow to retrieve search results. Also integration with Outlook would be a game changer.

What we like most about using Flock is how easy it is to communicate with our entire team, in real time. It's more organized and professional than texting. And more simplified and modern than emailing.
We feel like the platform could use a few tweaks with how it works and new features.

Flock has made collaborating easier with teammates who are working remotely.
I love all the ways my team can share resources, files and notes and how we can communicated (messages, video conferencing, polls, etc.)
So far, in the past year and a half, I haven't run into any issues with the software.
