Considered Both Products	Flock MP Mayur Patil Software Test Engineer Chose Flock Flock standsout with it's extra ordinary features such as file sharing, pinning any file in groups, customised integration with various applications, reminders across groups, creating and managing groups, file sharing with integration, notes sharing and mainly communicate … Incentivized Helpful? Billy Myers Office Manager Chose Flock Many of the features are shared between these three programs but for us, we found the mobile application to be much easier to manage and being that we were using this a lot on the go that was a major selling point for our team and operation. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Flock In my opinion, Flock is not the best among the listed products in terms of extensive features that other products listed provides but has it's own place in the communication and team collboration domain. I think Flock works well for smaller teams and organizations looking for a … Incentivized Helpful? Iffat Khan Application support specialist Chose Flock Flock stands strong with these tools in market. Although it does offer some great features but can be better in terms of integration. We used Flock for over 10 years in our organization because it was easy to use for non technical users. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Flock So much easier to navigate Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Flock Flock stands up very well against others when used for individual and group chats. It also works well with Google Drive Integration.

Ankit Kapadia Sr. Marketing Manager Chose Flock Slack and Flock are fairly comparable in terms of features, though Flock has a cost advantage. 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. Flock's UI was exactly what we were looking for and Flock doesn't overcharge small teams for search functional or messaging. It just offers a great product at a great price combined with great … Incentivized Helpful? 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. Flock on the other hand has many features which relate to business setting Incentivized Helpful? Kristen Reeves Data Entry Clerk Chose Flock I did not like Google Hangouts. Hangouts is more geared toward personal communication instead of business related communication. Flock is also a lot easier to use and has more options related to a business setting. Incentivized Helpful? Tim Mack Instructor Chose Flock Our creative team collaboration pathway story went like this..We started on Facebook as a secret group. We looked for better solutions and moved to Google Docs. It was a bit too robust for smaller conversations, so we moved to flock. Flock was great but proved to be too much … Incentivized Helpful? Lee L Kennedy Analytics Director Chose Flock Flock is similar to Glip, with only two notable differences: the gifs are worse but the reactions are slightly better. Integrations are a little better, albeit a bit confusing. For example, there is a built in video conferencing feature where you can video chat with someone, … Incentivized Helpful?	Jetbrains Space Timothy Barnes Software Engineer / Web Developer Chose Jetbrains Space Jetbrains Space offers a lot of features that, in my opinion, Bitbucket and GitHub lack, especially in terms of project management. Also, while it only really integrates with JetBrains tools, I think it integrates better with them than GitHub or BitBucket do with any tools. Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	Flock	Jetbrains Space
Likelihood to Recommend	Flock is a great communication tool. However, it's in a very competitive space. It offers seamless app integration (i.e., google calendar and drive) to allow for easy use across the platform. It's a great communication tool. However, if you don't need an overloaded app, there are other options out there. And for work purposes, it only covers some of what you need. Incentivized Sasha Jacobsen Model Read full review	Jetbrains Space is extremely well suited to web projects, as well as application development. The management tools and CI are great for web. I think it is less good for game development. Needs more access to viewing assets, and improved git-lfs support to really work for games. Incentivized Timothy Barnes Software Engineer / Web Developer Read full review
Pros	Networked phones are a thing of past now. We don’t have to stop what we are doing to receive phone calls currently because Flock can do that It is now easy to send messages to many people at the same time, all we need to do is to add all the contants in the chat and select all to send a message This software has an in-built to-do-list which allows us to assign tasks to different people or users and then supervise each independently Incentivized BW Benard Wambua Director of Product Management Read full review	Integration with other JetBrains tools Managing codebases and repositories, as well as projects Issue tracking Incentivized Timothy Barnes Software Engineer / Web Developer Read full review
Cons	A tool is only good if people use it. Some of the artists I work with found it too complex (though I don't think they really gave it a good shot). We used it heavily for about six months and it didn't hit too many other big negative points. Incentivized Tim Mack Instructor Read full review	The move to Jetbrains SpaceCode could have been smoother There are missing API endpoints in Jetbrains SpaceCode The Jetbrains SpaceCode API documentation is not working as expected Paul Allsopp Senior Software Engineer Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	We would likely to renew use of Flock for our organization since it meets most of the requirements of team collboration and communication for a small group like us. Most of our Flock users like it's features and use it extensively for day-to-day work. We are quite optimistic about it's future updates.

Usability	It is good to give what an app deserves, Flock is very efficient and effective app to manage the all day to day activities and communicate across all team members, create groups, share files, send reminders schedule reminders for each group or persons and share notes.Pin files and search any messages from anyone with advanced filters. It's a great app. Incentivized MP Mayur Patil Software Test Engineer Read full review	It has some rough edges, but overall the UI is extremely good. Incentivized Timothy Barnes Software Engineer / Web Developer Read full review
Support Rating	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	No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	Flock stands up very well against others when used for individual and group chats. It also works well with Google Drive Integration. The best part of Flock, compared with others, is in the area of File and Document sharing. The two areas it slightly lacks are voice/ video calls and search. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	With the other software I've tried, they solve many issues, Jetbrains Space solves them all by being a complete all-round solution for every level, from management, to support, to the developers. The other tools have some of these things, but I never felt comfortable using the whole system as a complete source of project tools, often ending up using tools from multiple vendors. Paul Allsopp Senior Software Engineer Read full review
Return on Investment	Organizing notes manually has been drastically reduced. Flock folders and chats are perfect for keeping each file separate. We have not missed one calendar event with Flocks integration of our Google Calendar. Being able to cut out or $99/month case management software has saved a ton of money each month. Incentivized Anthony Zurica Owner Read full review	I feel secure with Jetbrains Space, as a project management tool. I feel secure using Jetbrains Space internally to manage my code Being able to access Jetbrains Space from all my projects, regardless of language is a huge plus. Even my documentation is covered.
