Likelihood to Recommend
Flock is a great communication tool. However, it's in a very competitive space. It offers seamless app integration (i.e., google calendar and drive) to allow for easy use across the platform. It's a great communication tool. However, if you don't need an overloaded app, there are other options out there. And for work purposes, it only covers some of what you need.

Not a huge replacement for a CRM but anything else can be handled. Really an all in once platform with no speed issues or crowded pool of features. Ideal for a startup and alternative to mainstream, heavy and expensive alternatives

Pros
  • Networked phones are a thing of past now. We don’t have to stop what we are doing to receive phone calls currently because Flock can do that
  • It is now easy to send messages to many people at the same time, all we need to do is to add all the contants in the chat and select all to send a message
  • This software has an in-built to-do-list which allows us to assign tasks to different people or users and then supervise each independently

  • Nuclino is very easy to write and edit on - the text editor functions are simple yet effective
  • Nuclino is very simple to understand - there aren't pages and pages of menus and endless functions. It cuts down a knowledge base to what is required
  • Nuclino is reasonably priced
  • The graph view is a great piece of design

Cons
  • A tool is only good if people use it. Some of the artists I work with found it too complex (though I don't think they really gave it a good shot).
  • We used it heavily for about six months and it didn't hit too many other big negative points.

  • switching overe workspaces is bit tedious at the moment
  • more granular control over what users can edit inside workspace -> specific items or any item under a specific collection
  • currently its not clear who edited an item last -> footer that updates each time item has been edited and by whom
  • support for smartsheets. only because we use them ;)
  • on prem version? (easier to sell this to my boss)

Likelihood to Renew
We would likely to renew use of Flock for our organization since it meets most of the requirements of team collboration and communication for a small group like us. Most of our Flock users like it's features and use it extensively for day-to-day work. We are quite optimistic about it's future updates.

Support Rating
We've only needed customer support a few times with Flock (mainly concerning app integration and security), and they've always been timely and helpful, which are the only things I truly need from support. The response rate was still rapid, and there's plenty of support available online as well for Flock.

My team has an individual dedicated to content management and Nuclino is one of her job descriptions. It's nice knowing she is able to handle any issues that arise before we even realize they exist. We haven't had any technical issues since implementation so that's been a very pleasant experience.

Alternatives Considered
Flock stands up very well against others when used for individual and group chats. It also works well with Google Drive Integration. The best part of Flock, compared with others, is in the area of File and Document sharing. The two areas it slightly lacks are voice/ video calls and search.

Nuclino has both advantages and disadvantages compared to other products. Its main strength is ease of use and speed. It works very well for teams that prioritize efficiency and progress. We have found that it's important to use the right tools in the right parts of the organization. Nuclino works well for some teams, but not for large-scale initiatives or parts of the organization that require very robust and more feature-rich solutions. It’s not for everyone, and for large or complex organizations, it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. Use it where it fits best, and it certainly stacks up well with clear strengths.

Return on Investment
  • Organizing notes manually has been drastically reduced. Flock folders and chats are perfect for keeping each file separate.
  • We have not missed one calendar event with Flocks integration of our Google Calendar.
  • Being able to cut out or $99/month case management software has saved a ton of money each month.
