### "Review"

August 26, 2021

4.0

Pros

New feature around recognition is great, and stops people using Whats App. Can put out regular comms and stops us having to communicate everything by email. We can use the hub to store all of our policies on there and information and newsletters. It also is a central hub, so we put links for our other software that we use such as recruitment or our HR systems

Cons

The news feed could really do we a better focus and filter on categories. So you can select one or more categories so you don't see everything. Having priority posting can get out of control. Would like it to be able to reduce reports on usage better to show how many posts people have done or have many likes people have done. Helps the business to understand the engagement, so more stats on this the better

### "Great Application, Greater Company"

June 23, 2021

5.0

The company is amazing to work with! They hear you and work hard to make their product the best it can be

Pros

This app makes other apps like slack look like a joke. It channels, feeds, documents, integrations. So much more for less.

Cons

On occasion we have to refresh the app. Not the end of the world by any means and I feel confident they'll work through random bugs!

### "A Surprise Underdog Comes Through"

June 10, 2020

5.0

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.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.

Reason for choosing Blink

Blink has the best user interface and is able to accomplish everything we were looking for as an organization.

### "We use Blink as our main communication tool as we are split between two office or on customer site. "

March 20, 2018

5.0

Pros

After several false starts with other applications, the team quickly adopted Blink. Within two weeks we had rolled out Blink as the tool of choice. We are distributed over two offices and/or on customer site - so having a central messaging tool that everyone uses is great. New joiners find it easy to learn/use. We have some company-wide channels, individual team channels, lots of ad hoc groups, and then normal direct messaging. Due to the ease of use we use it regularly to bring small/ad hoc project teams together in order to share documentation and messaging. The fact that there is a desktop app, a web app, an iOS app and Android app means Blink can be used where ever you are. We like the lightning-quick search, have linked it to both Jira and Office 365, and have plans to extend it with an in-house Bot. New features are released on a regular basis and if we have any questions then we have found the support to be very quick and helpful.

Cons

The main limitation is that we still need to use a separate application for screen sharing and voice calls. It would be nice if this feature was added. However, we would rather use Blink for messaging and sharing than go to product that was a unified platform but a poorer experience. For that reason we still currently use Skype for Business for voice and screen sharing but have chosen not to use Microsoft Teams for colloboration as we think Blink is a far better experience.

### "Excellent software"

August 20, 2021

5.0

Live News and posts from all the depots in one place :)

Pros

We have 25 depots around the UK. There was a time when we didn't know what was happening in the other depots but now all employees from other depots post their comments, feedback and other things on Blink so now we don't miss anything :)

Cons

There is nothing to dislike about Blink :)

### "Great Company Social Platform"

June 9, 2020

5.0

The level of communication has increased. Blink has been a great tool for people to share their experiences without having to send a company wide email. The chat function has also made it easier for people to ask simple questions without having to send email.

Pros

It's super easy to set up and use. The team at Blink are always quick to respond, listen to feedback and suggestions for future features. Integration with some business applications have been useful for daily updates.

Cons

Now that they've allowed multiple photo uploads and direct video posts I can't think of much else. Permission levels could do with more rejigging as most things if you're not admin you can't control perhaps there could be something inbetween admin and user. Also if you're not part of a team you can't post to that news feed - however there are times when someone from one team might want to post something to only a couple of teams but not the whole company and that's not easily achieveble. Perhaps "team admins" can post to other team news feeds and just not see any of the feed other than their own post? Perhaps business collaboration tools could be more advanced?

Reason for choosing Blink

Had the best UI and UX. Simple and straightforward with the added tools sharing documents etc.

### "Crucial for Day to Day communication"

August 26, 2021

4.0

Blink lets us have everything in one place so that colleagues don't need to remember multiple passwords to access things such as their self service portal or timesheets.

Pros

Since working from home Blink has been invaluable to our team as it allows us to communicate throughout the work day as if we were in the office.

Cons

Sometimes news feed is hard to filter and important information can sometimes be missed

August 26, 2021

### "Amazing Internal Communication App "

August 26, 2021

5.0

To use it as an intranet works incredibly well and its very easy to navigate. Its also great using it for our policy library.

Pros

The Hub and the communal feed are incredibly useful as 115 of our services are able to share their stories and learning with the rest of the organisation and corporate are able to communicate with them across a range of matter.

Cons

Alerts for overdue documents would be very beneficial

### "Gran herramienta de comunicación"

February 13, 2023

5.0

En general la aplicación cumple con el objetivo para la que se diseño.Supongo que la aplicación sigue en revisión y se revisarán algunas pequeñas mejoras que harán que sea en momentos puntuales menos engorrosa.

Pros

una gran herramienta para la comunicación intraempresarial.Las opciones que se nos presentan para crear grupos de los diferentes departamentos donde en ellos se compartan noticias, boletines o simplemente cambios o actualizaciones relativas a nuestra área, hacen de la aplicación un fijo cada día para cualquiera de nosotros.

Cons

Aún no esta bien desarrollado en cuanto a la capacidad de mensajería instantanea o chat.Hay algunas lagunas que se deberían revisar, como los grandes tiempos de carga....

### "Blink is really awesome! "

March 20, 2018

5.0

Pros

Blink provides me with an excellent way of communicating with colleagues and getting company updates out to the wider business. I find it better than email as it has a more natural flow and much more efficient as you can create multiple relevant chats and groups for all your requirements. Notifications are great and it intergrates with all my other apps.

Cons

I'm looking forward to the getting an update to enable messages to be sent after being offline, this would enable Me to use offline and keep up to date with chats.

It puts everything in one place and is very easy to use.

Pros

The Feed works great. It pulls everything you need into one space. The messaging side of Blink works very well. Instant messaging, teams, spaces - very easy to use.

Cons

Offline working would be nice, but these days everyone is online for the majority of their workday, so just a minor nice to have.

Customizable communication tool. Holds all colleagues contacts and can be used as a single point of contact. Very useful and used even more since Covid and has not become a critical point of my daily
