Parabol vs. WorkPatterns

Parabol has been very useful in running meetings in person as well as digitally. Parabol become extremely useful for us in COVID when we used smart meeting scheduling and run them in an agile way using Digital Kanban board and sticky notes, easy to manage check-ins and integrations with internal tools.

WordPatterns is very easy to use and keeps a direct line of communication with updates for your team and Manager(s). This tool takes collaboration way past the likes of Microsoft Teams. With everyone having an idea of your activities, information can easily be shared with useful and effective suggestions being provided by one and all. Timelines are easier to address and the level of precedence given to tasks can increase as well as decrease. It is easier to set achievable goals and the rest of the team can be involved in this process, to help reduce the time taken and to complete projects in time and on schedule. In terms of having direct communication with Management, it is invaluable as information can be sent there and then or later on. There is less of the cumbersome messaging involved in other Apps. It's also great for Appraisal/Performance reviews etc.

The capability to create reflections and comments while maintaining anonymity is a very useful feature that contributes to group engagement without individuals feeling that they have to censor what they say. Parabol's anonymous functionality promotes honest discussion and feedback that most likely would not occur when employees feel that their input would not be taken seriously.
