Product Details

What is Workplace from Meta?

Workplace is a business communication tool from Meta that helps teams stay connected in a simple and secure way. With familiar features like Live Video and Groups, users can share information, engage your employees, build culture and connect people anywhere, anytime. It is designed so the user doesn't need to be an IT genius to use it, and so that anyone can pick it up and get started straight away.


Workplace integrates with tools like Office 365, Google Workspace and ServiceNow, or the user can build custom integrations to connect any other tools relied upon. The vendor states that security and privacy are at the heart of Workplace - user data belongs to the user, and it is kept separate from Facebook.


Workplace boasts over 7M users worldwide.

  • 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 text
Cons
  • Workplace Chat is not reliable in terms of being able to delete a comment you sent...sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
  • When viewing a Workplace Live event after it's over, the comments don't always show all of them and in order, even when you choose that option.
  • Your "status" (on vacation, in a meeting, whatever) is a bit too subtle and easy for folks not to notice. We've created "badges" to use in place of our profile photo as a workaround for that, but it would be nice if Workplace had provided something like that itself.

It's just so much easier with Workplace

  • Connect employees who are far apart.
  • Allow users to share informal content in a way that is familiar and comfortable
  • Innovate with live video and questions and answers
  • Track engagement on the platform and what interests the users
Cons
  • Analytics can always be worked on
  • Layout can be a little intimidating for a new user who isn't used to platforms of this nature
  • requires a healthy amount of admin and behind the scenes work

  • No need to install plug in
  • Useful for broadcasting live content to large audiences
  • Extend Webex controls to stream
Cons
  • File and whiteboard sharing support while live streaming
  • Support for automatically translate the live streaming
  • In some companies, security and privacy are sensitive issues and this is something to take into account when enabling streaming to a user

Workplace is a great tool for smaller businesses to stay connected and on track in remote work settings

  • Messaging tool is great for quick check-ins each day or getting a hold of someone quickly in a remote work setting
  • Groups make it easy to separate clients and projects to keep work organized
  • RSS feed connectivity so we can read up on new articles posted by websites we follow
Cons
  • Can be glitchy at times, with notifications not working or delayed
  • It's more of a status update place, can't easily work on projects within Workplace
  • A little too much like Facebook, would be nice to have more project management features
