"Review of Café (the workplace coordination and hybrid-work platform)"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Café?

Hybrid Work Coordination

Café simplifies the process for employees to organize their office days, check when colleagues will be present, and select their preferred work locations. This is particularly helpful for hybrid teams striving to maintain a balance between in-office and remote work.

Simple and Intuitive Design

The platform features a clean, user-friendly interface, enabling most users to get started without the need for training. Administrators also benefit from a quick and easy setup process.

Good Integrations

Café integrates seamlessly with tools like Slack, Google Calendar, Outlook, and others. These connections enable automatic status updates and make it easy for employees to stay informed within the systems they already use every day.

Community and Engagement Features

In addition to scheduling, Café fosters a sense of community within teams. Employees can see who is available, arrange social gatherings, or create internal groups and events based on shared interests.

Fast Product Development

The platform is updated frequently, with new features and bug fixes released on a regular basis. Users have noted that the support team is responsive and quick to address feedback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Café?

Some users experience a bit of friction with the interface, particularly when viewing monthly schedules or managing larger teams, as it can feel somewhat clunky. There are also reports that the mobile app may lag or unexpectedly log users out at times.

Advanced users sometimes struggle with bulk management tasks, such as editing multiple days or users simultaneously. As a result, the platform is generally more suitable for small to medium-sized teams rather than very large organizations with thousands of users.

The tool’s effectiveness relies on consistent use by all team members. If only part of the team keeps their schedules updated, the benefits in visibility and coordination diminish quickly.

Some minor stability issues have been noted, including occasional connectivity bugs, sync delays, or login errors, particularly on mobile devices. While these issues are not widespread, they do appear in some user feedback.

Although the setup process is straightforward, the platform offers fewer in-depth customization options compared to larger, enterprise-grade workplace management solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Café solving and how is that benefiting you?

Café helps solve the challenge of coordinating hybrid work schedules. Earlier, it was difficult to know who would be in the office on a given day or to plan in-person meetings effectively. With Café, I can easily see my teammates’ office schedules, plan collaboration days, and avoid unnecessary travel when the team is working remotely.

This has made team coordination smoother, improved collaboration, and helped maintain a better balance between remote and office work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Team Coordination for Hybrid Work"

4/5

What do you like best about Café?

I appreciate Café because it makes it easier for hybrid teams to stay connected, find out where everyone is working, and arrange meetups without hassle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Café?

I find that Café can be less effective for teams that work entirely remotely, as its usefulness often relies on team members consistently updating their status. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A better way to work together"

5/5

What do you like best about Café?

Working in a hybrid workplace raises issues like getting together with a scattered team. Café is a very practical tool for us to meet again and more than usual. Teamates work more together and create links.

All the information is brought together to have an overview of everyone's schedules thanks to the integration of slack and google calendar.

The tool often evolves with new features, which is appreciable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Café?

For our needs, Café responds correctly to our expectations and our use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Café solving and how is that benefiting you?

Café helps us reconnect people with each other in a hybrid work organisation, but also to achieve a corporate project that aims to redefine the fundamentals of working better with our time and teamates.

We have observed undeniable benefits, people take more pleasure in coming back to the office knowing who's going to be there.

We were also facing the problem of large attendance on the same day, which could cause space problems, Café helped us to spread everyone's attendance over the week. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Awesome tool for any hybrid workforce!"

5/5

What do you like best about Café?

I recently tried Café and I must say I’m impressed with the app! One of the things I liked best about Café is the schedule view feature, which allows you to share and access people’s schedules to find the best day to meet. This has made scheduling meetings much easier and less time-consuming for me.

The analytics feature is another thing I really appreciate about Café. It provides detailed data on occupancy rates, people connections, and office attendance, which helps me make informed decisions about the office space usage.

I also love the trends and interest graph feature, which allows me to see what’s trending in my organization and connect with others based on common interests. The user profile customization is also a nice touch, allowing me to add my own hobbies, activities, and hashtags to my profile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Café?

As for areas of improvement, there are a few things that could be better. For example, the platform doesn’t let you book meeting rooms, which can be a bit frustrating. Additionally, Café doesn’t offer a dedicated desk booking experience, which would be helpful for those who have specific desk preferences.

Another area for improvement is the UX, which can change quite frequently, making it difficult to adapt at times. I also noticed that Café doesn’t integrate with Google Chat or Zoom Chat, which could be a hindrance for some users. Additionally, I was unable to access analytics under the free plan.

Overall, despite some areas of improvement, Café is a great app that I would definitely recommend to others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Café solving and how is that benefiting you?

Before starting to use Café, I had been struggling with scheduling meetings and events with my colleagues. It was often difficult to figure out who was where and when, and coordinating schedules took up a lot of my time. However, since I started using Café, I've found that it has solved many of these problems for me.

One of the most significant benefits I've experienced is that Café has helped me better understand our workplace utilization. The analytics feature has given me detailed data on occupancy rates, people connections, and office attendance, which has helped me make more informed decisions about how to best use our office space.

"Highly recommend it if you are looking for an easy, incredible, people-first & intuitive tool!"

5/5

What do you like best about Café?

All the integrations (slack, HRIS, etc).

The diversity of the features covering the diversity of needs, depending of how your company manager the different workstyles.

The DATA!!! You can use them to plan the future and analyze the past and the on-going.

The design: platform user-friendly even with employees which are less comfortable with app/webapp.

Personalization: I can look for the information I want and plan my event in my own way, and my coleeague can do that in her own way. Flexibility is key when your tool is used by everyone!

Customer service: I have a crazy high level of requirement when I work with a provider/tool/service and they are able to give me clear, quick, and efficient feedback with no bullshit. And they always are listening to their customer to improve! You really have the feeling that it's done for you, not for them. They want you to be satisfied. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Café?

Nothing! I wouldn't work with them if I wasn't fully satisfied :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Café solving and how is that benefiting you?

Social interactions and connectivity between employees: this takes a lot of time for human people to create social interactions based on interests, profiles, etc. Using Cafe helps me to save time to connect people between them without losing the quality of it.

Managing remote, flex, hybrid, onsite policies and requirements: again save time and help me to resolve all the constraints and problems related to it.

Managers trust: help to make managers more comfortable with their team working remotely. They are reassured by the ability to see directly if the employees are onsite, are off, work from home, work remotely... They don't have to "chase" employees to know that. Employees and managers are both more comfortable now communicating about this specific and sensible topic.

Data analytics: forget 5 hours with your table! Everything is now clear and accessible whenever you want! I save tons of time to plan if we need to move, adjust policies, etc as I can see directly what's happening and what happened (and what is happening in the future). This also helps me to manage events.

Finally, I solved the issue of opening tons of different tools to have 1 answer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A game-changing app for Veepee"

5/5

What do you like best about Café?

I absolutely love using this flex office management app! It has made managing my time in the office so much easier and more efficient. I can easily book and reserve my preferred workspace and even schedule meetings with colleagues who I want to collaborate with. Plus, the app's social feature allows me to connect with like-minded individuals in the office, making it easy to network and build relationships with others at Veepee. Overall, this app has been a game-changer for me, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to streamline their office experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Café?

Most of the annoying things can be configured (eg: Slack notifications). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Café solving and how is that benefiting you?

This flex office management app solves a few fundamental problems many professionals face when working in a shared & distributed office space.

Firstly, the app streamlines the process of reserving and booking a workspace, which can often be a time-consuming and frustrating task. With the app, users can quickly find and book a workspace that meets their needs, whether they need a quiet area to focus or a collaborative space to work with others.

Secondly, the app allows users to connect with like-minded colleagues and build professional relationships. This is particularly important in large offices where meeting new people and forming meaningful connections can be difficult. Using the app's social features, users can easily discover and connect with colleagues with similar interests and professional goals.

By solving these problems, the app benefits users by making their workday more productive, efficient, and enjoyable. Users can focus on their work without the added stress of finding a workspace or networking with colleagues, which can ultimately lead to a more fulfilling and successful career.

"Café is the Best Thing to Happen to Our Hybrid Team!"

5/5

What do you like best about Café?

As a startup guy, I know that building a strong team is crucial for success. And when we transitioned to a hybrid work model, we knew we needed a tool that would keep us all connected and engaged, no matter where we were working from. Enter Café!

What I love most about Café is how it helps us build authentic relationships with each other based on our interests. We use the events, groups, and communities features to connect with colleagues we might not have had the chance to interact with otherwise. And with Café's space booking feature, we can easily find out where our teammates are working from and meet up with them in person. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Café?

One thing that could be improved is the interface - it takes a bit of time to get used to all the features and how they work together. But once you get the hang of it, it's easy to navigate.

Overall, Café has been a game-changer for our team. We're more connected, engaged, and productive than ever before. If you're looking for a tool to help your hybrid team thrive, I highly recommend giving Café a try! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great solution for our hybrid team!"

5/5

What do you like best about Café?

At Upflow, we run on a distributed team, with 2 "hubs" that are offices where we all meet. Knowing who's in and out is super important! My favorite feature of Café is the ability to know in real time where my coworkers are working from, and ability to sync. I now know when to come to the office!

I'm a big fan of the mobile app and slack integration, which my life easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Café?

I wish I could integrate more things into Café, for example booking google calendar rooms, but honestly, that's not a big requirement for us at the moment. Café works just fine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
