HCL Sametime Reviews & Product Details

It is still required to be used at work, but we're slowly transitioning to Slack. A lot of our workspace aren't compatible or completely transferred to Slack yet. IBM doesn't support Sametime as much anymore and they use their own built-in Notes version now. The only thing I like about it is, it is an all-in-one system encompassing calendar, email, and instant messaging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Buggy and outdated. Not modern anymore. Slow to send email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very convenient for quick chats where you don’t have time to call or write a formal e-mail to someone. Video calls, group chats, file-sharing is easy. It is straightforward and offers an easy to use chat experience. Hyperlink, emojis, gifs also can be added. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have to add a new employee as a contact rather than just having them automatically added when they are put in to the pool of offices. The speed of network sometime lags while sending messages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
