A good, cheap app for offices without borders

Reviewed 6 years ago

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.

Pros

Oh many things. In particular, the features of changing display density, notes/files, do not disturb, and the reminder bot.

Cons

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.

Easily able to manage my team remotely.

Pros

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!

Cons

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!

Enjoy using Flock

Reviewed 7 years ago
Pros

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.

Cons

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.

Great connector

Reviewed 4 years ago

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.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.

Best team communication and task managment software

Reviewed 6 years ago

Easy to manage team and share files and notes with the team

Pros

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.

Cons

Nothing much they have all the box ticked

Flock has made it so easy to communicate in the office!

Reviewed 7 years ago

Easier communication within office!

Pros

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!

Cons

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!

The best application for teams to communicate!

Reviewed 5 years ago

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)

Pros

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.

Cons

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.

Effective Collaboration

Reviewed 5 years ago

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.

Pros

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.

Cons

None that I can think of... I would be interested in seeing if things can be customized at a later date.

Most efficient and easy to use communication software

Reviewed 5 years ago

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.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.

Much better team collaboration and time management

Pros

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.
