Review on DiscourseHosting by Flocka Parsons

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent collaboration tool and alternative option if Slack doesn

It's great to be able to have an active community of people that are interested in your topic or products/services you represent, without having those people spread too far geographically with different timezones! This makes it hard sometimes for me as I live 3 hours away from them but they can't always stay online due to high load times which causes frequent downtimes during peak traffic periods (usually Monday morning). Great product though - lots going right here for customers. Our team has been working together remotely so this allows us all communicate much easier than before when we were located at our previous job site where communication was limited by distance & lack of real office space / amenities. I really like that it comes with many features out of the box including forums, polls & surveys, chat rooms, blog integration etc. The UI can be improved in some aspects but overall pretty good! Support could use improvement though since my issues are usually solved after sending an email to their support department rather than being resolved right away. Hosted web platform for public discussion website or groups/communities platform which allows users to create topics/groups, post messages/polls.
