The best communication app for work!

Reviewed 6 years ago

Excellent application to use on all devices and communicate with team effectively.

Pros

It helps making communication easier & more reliable between teams, especially teams who are working remotely.

Cons

Screen sharing and video calling features can be included within the app (rather than using an external link).

Great chatting tool

Reviewed 4 years ago

LOVE Flock and how it has helped bring our team together.

Pros

Flock is a super easy chat platform. It can organize the threads per user with a targeted reply or to the whole group. It is very mobile friendly as well so your messaging can be viewed anywhere. It is easier to use than texting since it is web-based and not dependent on cell signal.

Cons

I wish there were more emoji's and funny things to add to posts

Flock - easy-to-use solution for team collaboration.

Reviewed 6 years ago
Pros

We've tried Skype as our team communication app, it was good, but faced with advertisements, and we kept on receiving spam from hacked accounts, no integration as well so Flock is a better option. 1. 5 integrations in Flock for their free plan. 2. Group video calls. 3. Affordable than its competitor.

Cons

I like Skype's new redesign better than Flock's current UI. Their interface a bit too complicated for us. A little bit slow.

Great for interoffice communication!

Reviewed 5 years ago

I would totally use this again. It cuts down on the number of emails or phone calls I get with the "little things" that need to be addressed.

Pros

I like that it is an instant message that allows me to tell coworkers if they have a call on hold, or ask them a quick question - without bogging down emails.

Cons

It was a little tough at first to figure out how to add people or create groups

I love Flock the best way to communicate

Reviewed 3 years ago

I love it when it comes to our business, it is easier to use like any other tools

Pros

Well the most impactful for me is that it allows my team to instantly send messages and files while doing our job, it is the best way to let us meet our colleagues

Cons

the least I like and the one that needs to improve is that some files are not instantly available and some times missing, but that is not problematic at all since it does not happen all the time

Flock is the best!

Reviewed 4 years ago

I am a very satisfied customer. I feel I was provided with accurate information throughout the app so I could make an educated decision with my insurance options & finances. I hope we use Flock with our open enrollment every year!

Pros

It's super user friendly! I love how it breaks down the price & has a description for all items available.

Cons

Needs more of an explanation on the life insurance portion. Lots of questions that I had to call & ask for ehlp with, but that really wasn't an issue.

Love Flock

Reviewed 5 years ago

I think the main thing that it is benefiting is our overall communication skills within the office.

Pros

I like that it is an easy way to communicate within the office for quick reminders, or letting someone know if you'll be out of office.

Cons

The main thing I would say is that there are still some bugs that still need to be worked out such as messages being sent later when the user didnt mean for them to.

Easy to use

Reviewed 5 years ago

It is great to have multiple channels to communicate with the team. Not everyone needs to be on every communication, we have multiple channels set up to talk about work, updates, important information as well as non-work channels to discuss ideas, food, and what everyone is up to outside of work.

Pros

Multiple channels, easy to use and the ability to drop links, word docs, excel spreadsheets.

Cons

Haven't found anything that I haven't liked yet.

Solid, robust team communication platform

Reviewed 5 years ago

Overall Flock is a good option for messy teams and helps keep everyone on track and rowing the boat in the same direction

Pros

Flock makes it super simple to get everyone on one page with centralized team communications. Similar to Slack but with a neater interface in my opinion.

Cons

Flock is pretty feature rich, but some of the integrations can be a little clunky and less than seamless.
