An always on, voice first, solution to remote teams!

A unique platform which has become the daily go-to platform for our entire team to work on.

PROS

Audio focus/voice first. Collaboration features.

CONS

Will be useful to have video in the future for some conversations, instead of jumping to other platforms like Zoom.

Remote working culture reinvented!!!

PROS

It is very very hard to ensure that culture and 'soft work' are not lost in this new era of remote and hybrid working. Orbital is a game changer in providing 'always on' environments for team members to work together, whilst apart and converse quickly and easily without it being distracting or tiring. i couldn't believe how much video calls were taking out of me until I went 'audio only'. Game changer is an overused word but this really is it...

CONS

Features are being rolled out to make it seamless to invite people into your 'galaxy' and for ease of use with calendars etc for meetings but they still have a bit of work to do on this - otherwise it's fantastic.

Orbital

A great solution which allows Haatch (worldwide) to run a virtual office with an "always-on" platform so the team can stay connected and just get on......

PROS

Love the ability to chat to the team without the need to video conference into a set meeting. Orbital is always on which allows the team to speak freely within our virtual office as and when we need too.

CONS

Need to understand what I'm doing wrong when colleagues share their screens - sometimes my loses focus

Reasons for switching to Orbital

Tied of video conferencing.

A fun and interactive platform that enhances communication

Orbital is a fun and exciting platform that is easy to use. It allows team members to mainly communicate via audio and text. Moreover, team members can share their screens, GIF, and emoji reactions which can create a good, virtual, work culture.

PROS

I like that I can easily and quickly communicate with team members in Orbital using audio and text. As a result, communication and collaboration have increased to a great extent. Moreover, Orbital has fun features that allow team members to use GIF and emoji reactions. Consequently, the platform is fun and interactive.

CONS

Orbital does not have a video conferencing feature, which could have been used to enhance communication between team members, especially if they are visually inclined.

A working recreation of the office for WFH life

Overall 10/10

PROS

The audio emphasis is key here, allowing you to distance yourself, or become available at your own discretion.

CONS

Originally the pricing was difficult. Now the entry level is easy to get a foot in and convince others of the advantages Orbital Provides

It's a polished and clever design that adds some good energy to an otherwise boring event (meetings)

Orbital adds some spice to digital meetings that are traditionally very boring. It's a playful design that makes them more engaging.

PROS

The whole platform is very polished. Features layout is very intuitive and the proximity audio adds an interesting spin (although it can be disabled if desired).

CONS

Admittedly, I haven't used it enough to have a definitive answer here but I didn't experience any hiccups. Signup and onboarding were both quick and simple.
