Pingboard is extremely easy to use for both admins and end users. It really helps to put a face with the names of people we interact with every day, especially in a 100% virtual environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish our company permitted end users to upload their own pictures, but that is a policy decision and not a fault of the PB app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Pingboard is now the assistant of mine while I have to look for somebody to call and / or email as all the contacts of mine are next to the image of yours. It is good to use a picture to search, as well as Pingboard combines these 2 components to make a good option to your organization's online business pattern as well as contact list. Apart from being in a position to get into this powerful info from anywhere, I like the comfort of that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I cannot recall what I do not love about Pingboard! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have never eased so seamlessly into a new job as I have with Pingboard by my side. Pingboard has helped reduce the number of times I've needed to say, "Sorry, what was your name again?" to virtually zero. With so many working teams, many of them remote, it's helpful to have a sidekick remind you of names to faces before jumping into a meeting or attending an event. My favorite part is the division by location. I can easily jump to the group of people I need to re-familiarize myself with quickly! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The app includes name, photo, and title, but not department in the quick text underneath each photo. I can get this information by clicking on specific departments, but this takes more work if I know a person I'm thinking of, but do not recall their department.

As a new employee to my organization, Pingboard has been a helpful tool. The platform has provided me the resources to learn who my colleagues are in preparation for meeting as well as other interactions.
I'm in the process of learning all of what Pingboard has to offer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sharing birthdays, and career milestones would provide a space to cultivate meaningful relationships with colleagues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like how easy it is to use the website and update information. Past websites I have used before have been lagging and sometimes hard to manage. With Pingboard, I have had no troubles updating my contact or work information or even my profile photo. Very happy with Pingboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I can't honestly say anything that I dislike about the website. From what I've used so far, its very easy to use and easy to catch on. Almost all of the features are self explanatory. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Quick and Ease of use is by far the most important. It's basically the Google equivalent of contacts, which this company has tried a variety of options to try to facilitate but Pingboard is far better than the others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Even though it's quick, it could be quicker. The other thing I could thing of is adding some kind of "did you mean such and such". Also it's hard to determine who is in what group, so a better grouping system would be appreciated. One last feature would be to request that a user update their information. Say John has a bad phone number, you can just simply press a request update right on his page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I am able to identify employees and their positions/ role in real time. This is especially useful after having had a meeting or conversation with someone who I don't usually interact with but it gives me a better understanding of what role they play in the company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I dislike about ping board is that the live organizational chart only automatically shows the heads of each department and I have to individually click through each one to identify where each employee is working and under what mentor or supervisor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Pingboard is an easy way to glance at the company as a whole and see where we are at in terms of headcount, out of office status and navigate departmental org charts. People can get up to speed quickly and figure out who they need to talk to or if others are out of office. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It would be awesome to have more integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I recently joined a company that use Pingboard, a product I hadn't heard of before. I found it immediately intuitive, and was able to navigate the company org chart with ease. This was a massive time saver and made my onboarding that much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The "secondary" features such as the out of office functionality are a little lacking, and feel like second class citizens. Typically Pingboard is the last place I fill out my availability as I've normally already filled in existing tools such as Google calendar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Pingboard is a great tool to help new employees out names to faces around the office. It also helps see where your team is at all times, whether working remotely or traveling. It's also a great way to celebrate birthdays and work anniversaries Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
At this point, there isn't much I dislike about the platform. It is a bit bare bones when it comes to set up instructions for a new user, but it's pretty self explanatory from there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Very easy to see team structure, employees by location and contact information for coworkers. Having status updates in one place is helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have yet to see anything to dislike. Pingboard's a simple tool that delivers on its purpose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Integration with Google Calendar after updating work status (Remote, Business Trip, PTO, etc) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Don't have approval option for managers. Not as easy for managers to see when their team will be out since it only lists dates. No calendar view. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It has some great features to look at your company as a whole as well as see important individual data. We have been able to create some inter office recognition using pingboard as well has get essential information to increase effectiveness. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We would love a way to download the org chart with more modifications and be able to select what is appearing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I really like how user friendly it is. There are not many obstacles hindering the learning of this new technology, and once you pick it up it is incredibly useful. The chart design is also very 'modern.' Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only features that are there are charts and diagrams that we refer to occasionally I believe that there are additional things we can add in order to make it fully integrated into office life, such as chat rooms/conference calling one-click by clicking on the person's profile picture etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love the visuals of Pingboard, it is very easy to read and navigate and has the ability to contain a plethora of information. It is also extremely user friendly and customizable from the admin aspect in regards to creating reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The zoom aspect has a bit of a learning curve to get comfortable with. Also, I wish there was some record of when each invite or resending of invite was sent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love the live org chart and being able to clearly visualize departments & their people. I also really love seeing what roles we are hiring for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
While clean, sometimes I find myself wanting a different version of the org chart that is less interactive, more clean, and even breaking up the org chart into a different more top to bottom scrolling format. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's really easy to see "who's who" within your organization! Being new to my company I used it to put faces to names and it made introducing myself so much easier! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing I dislike yet! So far it's been super useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The flow of the program is awesome. It helps speed up planning within the organization. I like how you can easily look up an employee and any business info you need is there to help assist you with your needs. Its a great program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I do wish pingoard would let you see vacations better when you go to download to the computer with dates. It seems that when you download it shows everyone on vacation that month/ week and not the actual dates. I wish this part was a little easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's easy to navigate and simple to absorb as a user. The feel is organic, and the branding is consistent and pleasing to the eye. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The view in zooming in or out of an active org chart can be a little clunky, but overall it's very clean and easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Being able to find someones manager, being able to see the full hierarchy of the different branches of the org. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The login and load screen. Ping board will log out after like 10 mins and I will have to login multiple times a day. Each login takes about 3 clicks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Having an org chart tool is invaluable, and pingboard meets that need. The ability to search and see a colleague in the context of their org chart location is a valuable one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Zoom / pan feels a little too coarse. The smaller view is unreadable, while the larger view isn't information rich enough to be as useful as it could be. Also, the 2 different search boxes are kind of confusing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I really liked to use Pingboard as I could easily see who is who in the company I work in and be able to identify them in person. It also has a fun format and the game who is who is cool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I didn’t find anything I particularly dislike Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I liked that as a new hire I could go and see everyone in my company and get used to who does what so when a problem came along I knew who to go to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish that everyone that is part of the company would upload a picture so that you could put a face to a name Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
