Blink

A Surprise Underdog Comes Through

Kommentare: I believe we made a great decision by choosing Blink and I would recommend them to any other company looking to up their communication game.

Vorteile:

In searching for a new communication platform, I thought I knew what I was looking for and which company I would go with. Blink was added as just another platform for comparison. However, during my first demo, I was convinced this was the right choice. It ticked off all the boxes: top down communication, bottom up communication, side to side communication, individual and group chats, an information repository, and one of the best price points of (in my opinion) even inferior platforms. Plus, they were up front about all costs, so I didn't have to worry about a surprise invoice I would have to explain.

Nachteile:

There are a few small functionality issues I have had since getting into the platform (such as not having control over what shows up under an employee name or what is displayed in the Directory), but I have been assured the team is adding my suggestions to their list and looking into how we can work around the other issues.

Perfect solution for remote workforce

Kommentare: Using Blink has revolutionised how we have both communicated with our staff and more crucially how they communicate with us. We have been able to get a consistent message out, instantly, which is something we've never achieved before. However being able to receive feedback from all members of staff has brought a new dimension to our staff relationships

Vorteile:

The simplicity of the software is amazing. The roll out process to frontline staff takes less than a minute as it is so obvious and intuitive. The speed that it performs without fail is amazing and the constant improvements to functionality are great

Nachteile:

Not sure I can put anything here - every snag we've come up the Blink team have worked around and found solutions.

Fine for communications, lacking in other features

Kommentare: More casual internal communications and email but very primitive. Newsfeed is good but difficult to search so only really works for real-time updates. Lack of ability to share files properly limos use severely and the ‘hub’ feature is too basic as it does not allow the creation of pages to view only upload of docs. The admin and access level features are not rounded enough, it’s all or nothing!

Vorteile:

Simple IM app and the newsfeed like appearance of the home page. Some limited integrations, calendar works well.

Nachteile:

Lacking in support for 3rd party apps, no ability to view documents in the app only have attachments.

Good Work Communication Platform

Vorteile:

This allows us to effectively communicate to our colleagues within our offices, across the country. Which with real time updates and alerts this becomes incredibility easy.

Nachteile:

Some of the post filtering options do require some setting up and testing, but once done it's easy to use.

Blink : An easy collaborative tool to share information inside the teams !

Kommentare: This tool is very useful, and I'm using it every day - even every minute - to share information with my team, or other people of my company. The global feed and the "history" allow also to don't miss information.

Vorteile:

The product is easy to use. The possibility to create group is very interesting, as group can be done with the right persons to talk a specific subject. The global feed allows to share general information about the company.

Nachteile:

The copy / paste option is working only in the blink feed. No possibility to copy directly to a Google Mail by example.
