In comparison with Slack, Slack seems more user-friendly and has a fast interface. Both have similar features but I have found Slack to be easier to use & experience no … Incentivized Helpful? Sasha Jacobsen Model Chose Flock I mainly prefer Asana as a task management tool, but I prefer Flock to Slack for communication. Flock bridges the gap between the two, and I find it's the best niche is for businesses or collaborators who need some integration (drive or calendar) but mostly need it for its chat … Incentivized Helpful? Anthony Zurica Owner Chose Flock Flock as mentioned takes the best of all these apps and improves upon them.

BW Benard Wambua Director of Product Management Chose Flock Unlike Flock which is more official, Google Hangouts are geared towards personal communication rather than business.

Cons	Flock FZ-LLC Flock's video and audio quality is sometimes poor as a result of poor internet connectivity It has a messaging limit of 10,000 messages which makes it hard for us to keep messages for future reference Incentivized BW Benard Wambua Director of Product Management Read full review
Usability	Flock FZ-LLC The user interface is fantastic and that makes it easier for all the users Incentivized BW Benard Wambua Director of Product Management Read full review
Support Rating	Flock FZ-LLC We've only needed customer support a few times with Flock (mainly concerning app integration and security), and they've always been timely and helpful, which are the only things I truly need from support. The response rate was still rapid, and there's plenty of support available online as well for Flock. Incentivized Sasha Jacobsen Model Read full review

Return on Investment	Flock FZ-LLC It did provide a creative space for conversation and this does equal a great return on investment, considering the investment is free for the base use. For the team members who enjoyed using it, it helped them save time in their day by having a repository for notes and creative ideas. Incentivized Tim Mack Instructor Read full review
