Well suited: - leadership communication. When our CEO posts a video to all company - it always gets the highest engagement - recognition/achievements posts - live streams for education, knowledge sharing - we are a company of 12000 associates and there is no other corporate channel for us to gather more than 500 people in one place. Less appropriate: - sharing some very targetted messages - it's impossible to do at Workplace without creating a group. So we use email channel for such targetted communications - instant communication like in a chat (probably it's less appropriate in our specific case because we use MS Teams for such quick communication instead of WP chats) Incentivized
Zoho Cliq has allowed our office to be remote-worker friendly since onboarding. Teams are able to meet throughout the day with ease. Completing "@" messages allow for inter-office communication in a semi-public space (i.e. on our #Sales channel, a sales team member can "@" me to ask a question, and if I don't answer, a teammate can reply first). And having the audio/screen share capability allows "parking lot" conversations to not derail the chat. The only caveat really is your available screen real estate to manage multiple conversations at once. Honestly, as a product, it feels as potent as Slack or Discord (minus silly bots). I don't have a single complaint about the platform.
Bring groups of people together to share info, stories, updates, etc.The chat app is pretty decent.Workplace Live is a good large-group meeting broadcast platform.It's pretty intuitive to use for anyone who's used Facebook.It provides different levels of "security" for groups, allowing you to have open, closed, and "secret" groups.It's easy to paste images into your posts and comments, without having to necessarily go through the process of saving an image as a file, etc.It has search capabilities for finding old information.It's available for both desktop/laptop and mobile devices.It's secured to allow only those within the company to see company-related info (but it also has a few inter-company groups, which can be useful, too).Workplace Chat has the ability to set it to Do Not Disturb.You can set notifications, including email notifications, if you want to be alerted to new activity in your groups, etc.You can use Markdown to format your textIncentivized
Its interface is really simple to use so you don't need to spend a lot of time training your people to manage incoming contacts.The visitor tracking is excellent. It will provide a lot of very useful data for your team to see what works on your site and what doesn't.It integrates really well with other Zoho apps.Their support is excellent. We got useful, informative responses from them when we had to contact them.Incentivized
It would be helpful if a review confirmation checkbox was able to be placed by files that needed to be read or reviewed. Along the same line, approve, review again, etc. would be helpful checkboxes to add by files, proposals.The layout is clean but suffers a bit from the center column width with two sidebars and a lot of empty space. It almost looks like a going out of business sale retail store where you notice the empty shelves. Workplace feels a bit bare at times. I think some good design modifications can help. Now on mobile, it is a great layout. I am addressing specifically the desktop browser login.An admin control dashboard would be really effective and even more so with more users on the platform.Incentivized
Not missing functionality as such but would be useful to record audio chatsZoho not as widely adopted than other Chat clients like Hangouts/SkypeIncentivized
Zoho Cliq has become an integral part of our daily business. Every single member of our team who has a job involving a computer has an active Zoho Cliq license and uses the tool continuously throughout the day. It cuts down on meetings and allows the team to feel very connected to one-another even though we are distributed geographically.Incentivized
Having to download multiple apps just to use the tool is very cumbersome. Facebook would have make this better by wrapping it in as a main feature within their app, but having to use multiple apps to see discussions and walls is so frustrating.Incentivized
Ease of use! It's easy enough to open chat, start audio sessions, screen shares, or even sending files. The fact that individual "emojis" can be applied to normal chats is wonderful. Allows to "acknowledge" without lengthy back-and-forths. Automation via CRM turns Cliq into a productivity tool beyond communication. Simply put, I don't how you could improve the system (save for a few UI boosts). As it stands, it's a powerful tool that is easy to pick up and play with.
Workplace by Facebook is an excellent fit in respect of support and documentation. It has excellent tutorials and documentation, as well. The UI and UX are already great as it is developed and maintained by Facebook, so most of the times, there is no need for any support or documentation.Incentivized
Any time that I have had an issue, and there haven't been many user support jumps right on and helps me right away.Incentivized
Workplace by Facebook is so much more than just a project management tool like Basecamp or Slack. The ability to disseminate information to employees is easier and better with Workplace by Facebook. It can also be used for informal messaging and sharing of information. It combines the best features of both with the same look and feel as Facebook.Incentivized
We selected Zoho because it was already a part of the Zoho toolset we were using. They offered a free trial which was a big help in our purchasing decision. Our team looked at one other alternative but we weren't satisfied with the pricing quote we got from them and the fact that we were already using other Zoho apps made our decision easier.Incentivized
We can meet the project times, that with the communication in real time.We provide solutions to our suppliers in a reliable and efficient manner.When a business can save time and at the same time respond to the demands of customers, this translates into greater market capture of action for the company.Incentivized
Positive - Easier Comms with specific Clients. Encouraging more to use it to engage with meNegative - Yet another comms channel to manage would like to have less. But see previous positivePositive - Came as part of my Zoho One subscription so low costHas a wealth of options still to investigate as part of CliqIncentivized
