Does one thing - but does it extremely well

PROS

It's just one of those pieces of software you never knew you needed - but shows enormous value once you start using it. We use BlogIn at our company to keep everyone on our distributed team on the same page about milestones, policy changes, plans, and company culture. There might be alternatives (like managing your own Wordpress site or corporate grade intranets) but the zero-maintenance factor and ease of use is what sets BlogIn apart from the competition.

CONS

If you're looking for complexity or a tool that does everything, BlogIn might not be the right choice for you.

Easy to implement and maintain, great functionality and amazing customer service

PROS

Easy for anyone to add posts, even less technical people. Easy to implement for the users. People like the option of getting emails or just using the site. The ability to comment easily, and to like without commenting has helped engage our entire employee base, including a significant number of virtual people. We've only had a couple of problems in the year we've been using it. The customer service is amazing when we do need it. Whether I've used chat or email, they are quick to respond.

CONS

The search functionality could be better. As our site has grown, it's harder to find specific posts. We haven't used the Wiki option very much yet, but it doesn't appear to have good visibility over what's been changed or added and by whom. Good revision tracking, but when just reading, you can't see updates easily.

It is great for storing videos

PROS

This site makes it easy to navigate and upload videos, all while controlling who sees them and maintaining privacy/publicity of various content material. I also really like how easy to follow the website it, and I always know where to look.

CONS

While I do love this site, it's not always relevant. I don't upload videos too often, but when I do, this is my go-to site.

an intuitive WYSIWYG company blog

this may be good to help start-ups with their knowledge base, company announcements, etc. but one can only go so far with this site.

PROS

straightforward interface, new users will be able to move inside and start working on the blog right away. menu items are color-coded, so it's easy to identify each menu item. While editing the blog page, copy-pasting formatted items - not much problem (links not incuded, though). love the youtube/video site embedding, inserting new paragraphs in-between items has a guide, so editing and updating is much faster. you can also mention other members of your site with the usual @ sign so they can be notified. rss feed for the posts are also available.

CONS

finding a way to make employees open the company blog can be a pain, this may be good for HR to post company events/activities. i'm afraid other bigger software may also be able to offer this as an add-on/feature. exporting your posts to another site/format/document is also not available.

Blogin is a Great Internal Resource for Any Company

PROS

Blogin is like a company bulletin board for us. Any information about new product releases, company events, or promotions, etc. go on it. I like the ability to tag people and use emojis in my posts. You can also insert images, gifs, or anything embedded really. The biggest benefit of Blogin is having a place where all company announcements are stored, but also the like/comment buttons. The like/comment buttons keep you from receiving the dreaded "REPLY ALL" emails from everyone commenting on an email. Blogin is set up to have all of the interactions kept within the program and seen by everyone there, similar to how Facebook is.

CONS

Blogin could use a few more features than it has. It's just very basic at this time, but it gets the job done.
