Crowdbase (discontinued) vs. OnSolve Critical Event Management & Mass Notification

I wouldn't suggest Crowdbasefor smaller companies, even for bigger companies a more integrated solution would be desirable. It may suit companies that want their collaboration separate from project management and CRM, but at least for our organisation it seems to make more sense to have most of our work tools in one place

Its well suited for early warnings; wellness checks; repeatable long-term duration events. ITs easy to train admins on it. I dont really see any less appropriate uses -- you may not want to use it for EVERYTHING or people ignore messages. So your admins need to be smart about deploying its capabilities. but it has never let me down.

Crowdbase's strength may lie in its ability to do just one main thing well, but for us this was a massive limitation. I know that it is not trying to be Podio and it is therefore unfair to compare the two but there are features that overlap. for us Podio was better suited.

We didn't compare them to other available notification systems

• Encourages communication
• Easy to use
• Before crowdbase we never though of collaborating this way

• Without it I wouldn't have a security business case
• Employees demand this type of service exist
• In a cyber incident you need this kind of out of band mechanism to communicate
