Slack vs. Sociabble

Well suited to on the fly questions and project notifications from other systems. Also well suited to keeping a record of discussions and ensuring those who aren't available in the moment can still see everything in the channels so they keep apprised of project details/discussions. It's not really great for when you need to sit down and demo something and brainstorm, but it can be used to note a summary for everyone on the project with the results of brainstorming sessions.

Most organizations interested in a Social Selling/Employee Advocacy platform would do well to try out Sociabble. It can be customized and adapted to perfectly fit your organization's needs and will almost certainly provide ROI on user engagement and connection to the broader goals of the organization. The only reason I might not suggest Sociabble would be if you're looking for a quick, turnkey solution to Employee Advocacy for a smaller team. All of the customization and gamification options Sociabble offers might be underutilized by small teams and do require some level of setup/configuration.

• Can create channels for small, medium, or even bigger team to relay important information/updates and whatnots.
• You can do one-on-one (huddle feature) if you're on-boarding a member.
• A platform that can be collaborated with other platform. Example a CRM to be linked with Slack for easier comms relay.
• The best feature for me so far is that you can mention a team member so he/she won't missed an important message you sent.
• You can directly message about anyone within the company.

• Undoubtedly Slack’s search function is powerful but sometimes it is difficult to find specific messages or files in very active channels with high message volumes. This needs an improvement.
• I have experienced notification issues on my phone. I am not receiving notifications and have missed important updates as a result. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, but the problem still persists.
• The Business Plus plan does not include support for data loss prevention or offline backup providers.

• Ideas to be recognized and providing feedback, people who are looking for.
• Any leads to knowing by customer or team to be an update to the content writer with the contact detail access to reach for demonstrating the solutions shared.
• A wall on Sociabble, who is looking for new technologies or solutions to generate the leads

Slack is wonderful, it is a tool that changed our perspective and our way to work. We used to use another one, which was purely and sorely designed to messages. Slack provides us that possibility and more, all the other functions that we daily use in our work routine, not to mention the fact that Slack has a wonderful design and it's really easy to use and adapt.

Applications can cause slowdown when onboarding because of the learning curve. Slack is user friendly and very easy to teach new users how to navigate the app. Installation is fairly quick, which also saves a lot of time when setting up new computers and users

Yes, the app works 24/7. I don't even recall having any period that we could not use since the implementation. Even the maintenance periods are barely noticeable and our work is not impacted by it when it happens.

Slack is a soft app, we don't have many issues with it. I recall one or two people complaining about something during our usage period, but I didn't have a bad experience. When the app is slow, usually the problem is with my computer or my internet. The app works just fine.

I've never had to contact support for Slack which is a great testament to its ease and use. Adding people outside of the organization takes a little getting used to, but ultimately allows for greater collaboration between FTE and contractors. There is no clear alternative to this software, so it's the best we can do for now.

We've had a total of ~30 support tickets with Sociabble and am not proud to say that if we had done better research, probably 20 of them could have been solved with their useful help documentation/content. However, when we do run into an issue within the platform, their Support Team is always quick to assist and provide an acceptable solution.

It always helps if you communicate to everyone in the organization how important it is to drop whatever other chat tools they are using and jump quickly to Slack. They will all fall in love with it.

It was too email centric - you get too many emails telling you to go there, so it seemed inefficient. There wasn't enough non-project functionality so it was never really "always open" for people the way Slack is, it just felt like an extra thing to do, rather than a tool that was truly integrated into our workday.

• When looking at whether to invest in Slack vs. Microsoft Teams, I always recommend Slack. Slack's interface is a lot easier to learn and is more user-friendly.
• I would recommend Slack, no matter the price tag, the ease of communication and making announcements for our team is priceless. From little things to "there's pizza in the break room!" to important updates for the whole team, it truly makes communication very easy and frequent.
• If you have a lot of team members who are remote, Slack is invaluable. It's more personal and lighthearted than emailing and quicker.

• The platform allows companies to deliver content to their employees that helps them grow and engage, which consequently leads to better delivery, making the company's service more efficient. Efficiency generates customer satisfaction.
• Scheduling posts allows them to set aside just a few hours to schedule all the posts for the week or even the month, creating time to dedicate to other daily tasks.
• I would also like to highlight the customer support we get from the Sociabble team, as it is very good and efficient.
