An easy way improve efficiency and communication

The weekly update is my favorite part of this app, I love how it keeps me updated with what's going in our office every Monday morning! It also helps to keep us accountable for all that we need/want accomplished during the workweek. Sometimes there are days where nothing gets done or something takes longer than expected but overall its been great so far. We have used other apps like Slack before which has worked well as well but sometimes you just want an extra tool to help organize things more

Pros
  • Keeps track
  • Has good organization system
  • Works better if most staff members use regularly (in small offices)
Cons
  • Uses too much data memory
  • Needs some updates

Great Tool For Internal Communication

It's great for internal communication, especially with remote teams since it allows us to share our progress in real time even if we are miles apart. The layout could be more intuitive. Sometimes I have trouble finding what I'm looking for when searching through all of the information in one place. Also, sometimes there is too much info at once that can get overwhelming.

Pros
  • Easy access
  • Simple design
  • Detailed view options available (see screenshots)
  • Ability search by project / task
Cons
  • Good but not great

Great tool for cross-department communication

Weekly Update is a great way to keep everyone in the organization up to date with what's going on. The ability to post to multiple groups is very useful. I wish we could post to more than just the Weekly Update group. I would like to be able to post to the company blog and/or the company social network. I wish it was easier to have more than one person post. It would be helpful to have a way to assign posts to multiple people. We can use Weekly Update to keep everyone in the organization up to…

  • Not the best
