Powerful engagement and communication tool

Likeliness to Recommend

10 /10

What differentiates Workplace from Meta from other similar products?

The way people can comunicate in groups without using the chat

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Group sharing. Announcements, engagement and learning

What do you dislike most about this product?

I do not dislike anything in special. I just hoped that they released the current section for knowledge center before. Since it took to long we ended up creating the company wiki in clickup

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Embrace the tool. Check best practices and how other are using it. I was at 2 companies with this tool (in both i lived the implementation). The first one achieved a high impact on engagement and communication. The second one didn’t but because they are using the tool as slack (just chat) It is good to have a person dedicated to the tool in terms of integration and comms. Also necessary to have tech teams aligned ( they will tell you over and over thar Slack is better. If they do not buy in, they will be an obstacle to use the tool properly

Pros

Reliable
