Nifty vs Sococo | TrustRadius

Likelihood to Recommend

I've found myself recommending Nifty to other business owners as well as for personal use. I've personally found it to be invaluable when it comes to:

Daily / Weekly / Monthly / Quarterly recurring tasks
Creating templates for company processes such as new product creation, marketing strategy, on-boarding, quarterly goals, content management
Having forms zapped into a new task from multiple locations ensuring they're never overlooked
Having clear milestones and timelines for projects
Communicating on projects, tasks, and just in general
Assigning different components of projects to different people
Creating prior requirements that must be completed before completing the task

Great for communication and work from home offices. It has a great visual layout, which removes the disconnect among the organization when working from home. It is less appropriate for bigger companies due to the official capacity limits for meetings. Sococo is an excellent way to check in with staff and be accountable to each other. However, if you are always working from home - this program may not be ideal due to the limitations mentioned earlier.Sococo is good if each employee has access to very high-speed internet. High -speed internet is a limitation for those in rural areas.

Cons

It is not possible to edit time logs because there are no comment sections in time logs.
I just want to see more templates added.

On rare occasions my co-workers have had problems where they open Sococo and it doesn't recognize when they're speaking. However, restarting the program usually fixes it.
Users can 'knock' on another's 'virtual' office to come in to talk. Essentially, the same as waiting for a person to pick up when calling on a landline. An option to auto-let anyone in who knocks would be useful.

Sococo 6.0

Based on 1 answer

Sococo didn't seem to have a strong support line. In comparison to other products, such as Microsoft Teams, it did not regularly check in with us. There should be opportunities to give feedback on the quality of the program periodically and if we had any issues. Sometimes, Sococo would crash, and we would 'restart it' but not know why it happened.

There's no comparison. Nifty does what all of these do all in one place (with the exception of Slack's community aspect with hashtagging - not sure if Nifty can do this, never tried)Nifty even has the ability to import directly from many other platforms - I've personally imported projects from Trello and Asana, saving tons of time in migration.

WebEx Meetings, Skype for Business, and Google Hangouts all require that you create some sort of "call event" that people can join or leave. Sococo gives you the ability to seamlessly move between meetings within one app and also provide a status of available or unavailable, or better yet, people can just see that you're in a meeting and who you're in that meeting with. This provides the opportunity for a boss to step in and determine a meeting isn't super important, so they can talk to someone in the meeting.

Its scheduling features are very helpful in project management.
I don’t like its mobile application and needs a lot of improvement.
There should be a dashboard for the analytics.

Sococo completely overcame the problem of staying in touch with remote development teams.
Enabled daily scrum meetings, sprint reviews, etc.
Helped keep everybody engaged in the project.
