Pros/Cons
Pros
- Its been fine, its ease of use is nice, and many of the features and tools are handy has well. Its a decent to tool to communciate with those in your whole company.
- Fun and easy for the whole office, user friendly and enjoyable. It's kind of like the Facebook for the office.
- The Jostle team is very responsive, and dedicated to providing great customer service and support. The 400+ employees at our organization have varying degrees of technical savviness.
Cons
- Inability to link to other items within jostle.
- The only downside I can point is the erratic crashes on the phone app, albeit annoying not a deal breaker.
- Through the website on my phone, I can’t even post updates half of the time. Pictures don’t want to update, the news feed gets stuck.
Pros
- After working in companies that used popular but non ideal instant messaging apps, having a solution as Slack for messaging the team is a lifesaver.
- The best thing about this software is its easy to use and very useful functions. I love being able to select groups to notify or send announcements easy, essentially getting rid of email.
- Overall it's good, fast and very user friendly once you start using it you will love this app.
Cons
- From keeping message history to other basic necessities, Slack charged for a lot of it. Comparing it to Discord, it cannot compete.
- When te connection is down, the messages stay grey and after some minutes, they fail, so sometimes the internet connection come back and those failed messages are sent after the previous ones.
- The only thing that I dislike is that I can easily get distracted by the notifications.
