Also, it's integrations with other tools (Gdrive, cal, trello, jira, Slack...) all just work so well. **What do you dislike about Range?** We haven't encountered an issue yet that needs fixing. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** Cross-team collaboration and priority setting - strategically, we operate as an Agile organization, and using Range helps us do that by pulling in projects, meetings, task lists, and more into one place, and then having really effective meetings and standups with it. ### 3. Overall, I love Range! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Gabriela E. | Customer Success Representative, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 17, 2022 **What do you like best about Range?** Really easy to install and use with my team. I also love the theme for check-in questions. **What do you dislike about Range?** I wish it would offer a private to-do list for personal use. It sort of has that function but is more for things I want to do later. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** Range is helping keep the team on the same page and let everyone know who is working on what. It also helps to know each other more through the daily questions. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Hi there, Gabriela. Thanks for taking some time out of your day to share your review here. The team really appreciates it. And we hear you on the private to-do list request. It's on our radar. ### 4. very complete **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Owen P. | Customer success, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** what I like the most about Range are the integrations it has with other applications, the notifications and the customization of my profile. what I like the most about Range are the integrations it has with other applications, the notifications and the customization of my profile. **What do you dislike about Range?** almost nothing. maybe improve the aesthetics of the application a bit more. almost nothing. maybe improve the aesthetics of the application a bit more. almost nothing. maybe improve the aesthetics of the application a bit more. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** it is a very complete, fast, intuitive, useful and practical application. i recommend it to establish conversations of different teams within the same company. it is a very complete, fast, intuitive, useful and practical application. i recommend it to establish conversations of different teams within the same company. it is a very complete, fast, intuitive, useful and practical application. i recommend it to establish conversations of different teams within the same company. it is a very complete, fast, intuitive, useful and practical application. i recommend it to establish conversations of different teams within the same company. it is a very complete, fast, intuitive, useful and practical application. i recommend it to establish conversations of different teams within the same company. it is a very complete, fast, intuitive, useful and practical application. i recommend it to establish conversations of different teams within the same company. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** communication with my teammates is very easy with Range, it is dynamic and intuitive communication with my teammates is very easy with Range, it is dynamic and intuitive **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Hi there, Owen. Thanks for sharing your feedback here! ### 5. Great Platform for connecting with team members **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Mary K. | Director, Patient Centered Strategies, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 13, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** This is a simple platform to communicate your achievements - both small & large, to your team and supervisor. It's done in daily checklist format - so you're able to easily move 'to-do' items to 'completed,' and provides tags for frequently followed items. One of my favorite parts about this platform is its ability to humanize the experience by asking questions - things like "what blocks your performance in a normal day?" or "what do you do to de-stress," etc. I find our work as a team has not necessarily improved, but we're more aware of what each of us has going on, and it gives the team leaders the ability to easily run goals met, etc. Reports are a great feature but are best utilized when team members regularly use the tagging function. Reports are customized according to the tagging feature. Overall, a great option, and I've used Slack, Asana, etc. This is miles above those, and its beauty is in its simplicity. **What do you dislike about Range?** The main thing is that reports function is tied to the tags function. Not everyone tags their items, so some could be missed if not tagged properly, or at all. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** Tag your important items, so that you can see them when running reports. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are able to cut back on our many meetings by following what we're doing on a daily basis - keeping our meetings more efficient and reserved for high-level items **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Mary, thanks so much for sharing this feedback and your experience here. I think it will be very helpful in assisting others in making the decision to use Range. Everyone benefits from more efficient meetings, so I'm glad to learn Range has been helping you and your team here. ### 6. Range allows our stand-ups to be much more useful. **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nate A. | Senior Software Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 10, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** We can get rid of all the boilerplate of standups by just putting our current status into range. We put range's 'flag's onto topics that we want to bring up as a group. And then during our standups, we use those flags to prioritize discussion. So our standups become many tiny adhoc meetings, instead of everyone just saying their status and then scheduling more time to actually have productive discussions. **What do you dislike about Range?** The UI is nice and snappy, but there is a lot of wasted space. You have to click on tabs to see different views of the check-in, and most of the rest of the screen is not useful. I think if the useful information (questions, flags, focus) were just all shown at the same time, it would be a lot easier. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** If you are tired of boring stand-up meetings. Try it out. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** As our team grew, our standups were getting cumbersome and repetitive. This allowed our standups to be much more engaging and interesting. And so we have less time in meetings overall. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Really glad to learn that Range has helped to improve your teams standups so noticeably, Nate. Also, thank you for the feedback about our UI. ### 7. Fantastic business tool! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Christy T. | Billing Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 10, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** So many things! The task list is by far my favorite as it helps myself and my team keep track of items that we need to follow up on throughout the week/month and helps us to plan accordingly. We all have many different accounts that we work, so keeping things all in one spot is extremely helpful. **What do you dislike about Range?** I would love to see the ability to add follow up dates to tasks in Range. Currently, I am putting a date at the beginning myself, but It would be nice to be able to set follow up for 1 week, 2 weeks, or a custom date. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** Definitely try it out for yourself to see how well it will work for you and your team. After I used it for just one day, I was enamored by the different features that I was able to use and the fact that it links with so many other platforms, such as our Google calendars, is super helpful to show my team when I will not be available during the day. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** It solves our issues with keeping on task. We also use it as our meeting platform weekly and this helps to keep all of the information in one place as well as distribute the information to team members after the meeting has ended, including any notes and discussions that we had on the topics. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Thank you so much for this review and feedback of Range, Christy! So glad to hear you're enjoying it so much and that it's providing real value to you and your team. If you want to see anything more from Range, please don't hesitate to reach out and let us know what we can do to make the product even better. ### 8. Good for team building **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kelly S. | Project Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 06, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** Range has many things that are useful. The task list is easy to manage and is helpful for tracking what folks are working on. The team connection components are really nice for enabling team formation and bonding. The team I'm using it with is 100% remote and it has helped us get to know each other better. The mood tracker is also really nice so you can get a sense of how your coworkers are feeling that day and whether or not they may need your support. Range has a lot of connection points. We've utilized the Range plugin in with Teams to do our standup in Teams. It is really nice. We've been using it for a few months and during this time, Range continues to innovate and improve the application. They've been very responsive to feedback and are helpful when questions come up. I'm excited to see how they'll continue to grow the application. **What do you dislike about Range?** The question pool for the "icebreaker" is around 300 questions right now. We've seen questions repeat. Hopefully, they'll expand the question pool at some point. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** Really poke around in Range. It has many great features, but you don't have to use them all to start. If there's something you can't find in Range, send a message to their support team. If it exists, they'll lead you to it and if it doesn't, they are willing to consider adding it to future releases. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** We needed a platform for the team to connect on. Range allows for us to stay connected, learn more about each other and the work each team member is focused on daily. The new reports are also helpful to understand how the team is operating. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Thank you so much for sharing your experience with and feedback of Range here, Kelly. I'll be sharing it with the team. Do let us know if there's anything more you'd like to see in Range. ### 9. Range prompts get-to-know-you questions for remote teams, without awkwardness **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Justin W. | Project Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 03, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** Range has personal questions or thought provoking questions that spark discussion. It lets me know my coworkers without forced 1:1s and without awkward small talk. Also helps managers see workload at a glance without constant updates or constant standup meetings. I feel like my day is more well planned when I use range. **What do you dislike about Range?** Not much! Range's question bank can be improved. I think Range's reminders are aggressive. Makes me feel subpar if I don't give timely updates. I think it'd be helpful to force a range update when you log in to slack, we only get 30% engagement from our team on ours, so we have no idea what 70% of our company are up to. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** No advice. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** I've solved for getting to know my coworkers and solved for planning my day out in a productive way. I've also solved for having to manually update my supervisors on my work. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Thank you for taking a moment to share this feedback, Justin! The team and I really appreciate it. And thanks for using Range! ### 10. Great tool for asynchronous teams working across time-zones to keep in sync **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** William P. | Field Application Engineer Team Lead, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 05, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** Check-ins are a great way to help the team stay in sync both on work and personally with mood and team bonding questions. Meetings feature is incredibly useful to track action items and notes! **What do you dislike about Range?** No Outlook365 calendar integration limits check-ins a bit for my team **Recommendations to others considering Range:** Start by asking your team to do a check-in before team stand-ups or meetings, then shorten the meeting by skipping straight to flagged items! **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** Our stand-up went from a 30-60minute affair down to a 25-minute meeting more focused on important items needing discussion rather than repetitive comprehensive verbal updates. With Range we are also able to fit in a personal "opening round" of how we're all feeling outside of work, sharing personal anecdotes helps our international team stay close. Plus, with the Meetings feature, I'm never worried about important follow-ups being forgotten! We are just starting to use the OKR tool. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Thanks for taking the time to share this feedback about Range. It's also great to learn about how Range helped to improve your team's standup. Do let us know if there are additional improvements you think we can make (in addition to Outlook365). ### 11. Invaluable addition to team success **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Mark B. | Founder, Exec Director, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 15, 2020 **What do you like best about Range?** Range helps keeps us all on the same page -- what we're working on and what we're doing. **What do you dislike about Range?** No big dislikes. The emotional check-in uses a different color scale than we use elsewhere in our org, but it still works great for us. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** We're a busy and distributed team, and Range helps us stay focused on what's important. It's also made it clear when we need to slow down or refocus. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Hi, Mark! Thanks for taking the time to share your experience with Range. We're really happy to hear how useful Range has been for you and your team. ### 12. I bring range to every team I manage (Big co and startup) **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ethan S. | Eng Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 20, 2020 **What do you like best about Range?** I've used Range as a manager of a 25 person team at Twitter and with a 6 person team at a 25 person company. In both situations it worked really well. At both places it's been helpful for keeping teammates aware of each others work and mental state (straightforward async standup) and encouraging consistent growth and improvement of teams around how they work (team development) Our team uses range to share our individual goals for the day, and a scheduled standup more to talk about how we are going to get things done, who needs reviews/pairs, etc. It functions as a nice todo list and progress tracker on the micro level, and a "how are things going" on the macro level. It's the kinda app that is more about doing all the little things right about team communication and culture rather than a "disrupt work" tool. Other things I appreciate: - As mentioned, it tries to meet you where you are rather than tell you how to work - Very lightweight and very easy to use. It's stickiness is in the value it provides not in the learning curve/integrations - lots of integrations, handles generic urls when there's not an integration - Has a very polished Slack app implementation, but also works perfectly fine without it. - Their support is _super_ prompt and great at getting to the "why" of my questions and proving solutions **What do you dislike about Range?** The objectives and meetings features are a little too vague. I've set them up, but they're tricky to blend into d. I respect the intent, daily use. I do want them to work better, but also it's not something that impacts our use of Range. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** Use it for just yourself to start, and once you have a feel for the little things it helps with that certainly helps explain why others should join you in using it. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** The problem it solves immediately is a nice way to do async standups. The problems it solves that you don't realize at the time, is having a diary of sorts to reflect back on around how a quarter went or how you've been feeling , or how last moth compares in some way to this month. And, as a manager it assists me in keeping the team thinking about team culture and how we work together. The direct benefits are probably hard to quantify, but the indirect benefits are a better work culture and more predictable engineering work and tammate accountability. You can fake a "range experience" with a google doc and some consistent effort, but it's not quite the same, and my time costs more than our range subscription. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Ethan, thank you so much for sharing your detailed review and experiences with Range. I'm very happy to hear that Range has been a very useful tool for you and the teams you've been managing recently. ### 13. Range - asynchronous standups. You know, so you can use that time for things like collaboration. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ron A. | Software Engineering Manager, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 19, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** I enjoy so many of Range's features. One thing that makes my life really easy is the way Range allows me to keep planned work at the top of the page. This makes starting my next day very easy. I look at Range and know right away what my focus for the day is. Also, having an item remain in my to-do list for too many days makes me want to complete the task even more. I also really like the team-building questions. These help foster a sense of camaraderie, especially valuable on distributed teams. **What do you dislike about Range?** There isn't much to dislike. The worst thing for me is when someone on the team misses their Range update. However, Range allows customized reminder schemes that help people stay in the Range check-in groove. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** Here are some of the best reasons I can think of for investing in Range: - if you have a distributed team Range can make standups work. The EU team can checkin at the end of their day which makes handoff to US-based employees quick and easy. Then any overlap time can be used for collaboration - if you have standups that feel like "status updates" Range can take care of the basics. Standups can then be used to talk about blockers and requests for help and talking about what's up next. - if you have trouble tracking what's up next and currently on your plate Range gives you a tool to keep a quick heads-up list of what you need to do that is visible to the rest of your team. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** We've been able to move to less "status update" standup time. We use that time to colloborate and we've also managed to triage many backlog items. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Ron, thanks so much for taking the time to share your feedback here, and for highlighting how other teams might benefit from using Range! I'll be sharing your feedback with the team. ### 14. A true live-saver for async teams and keeping on task! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Matt G. | CEO, Co-founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 16, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** I feel like I don't take Range to its full potential, but the Check-in feature is by far the easiest and most-effective to-do list I've come across. I find that the integration options with Google Calendar (and others) not only keep me on track but also make it fun to put together (and cross items off of!) my to-do list. The close ties with Slack also make it highly effective for our team members to share their latest progress without needing constant all-hands meetings just for day-to-day updates. **What do you dislike about Range?** Broadly, I feel like there's way more to Range that I don't know about, and perhaps I missed (or skipped) an onboarding wizard, but having some sort of getting started guide would've helped me maximize Range and all it seems to have to offer. Also, this is nitpicky, but the colors they changed the Google Calendar events to when dragging meetings to the check-in list aren't stark enough (between not added and added). **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** Range helps me stay organized with my team in a fully remote and async environment. Everything goes into my check-in list - if it doesn't, 9 times out of 10, it just doesn't get done 😅 Our team finds it productive to use Range's check-in module to share their to-do list also. Plus, with the Slack integration, check-ins through Range add a layer of transparency and insight into what we're all working on, even when we don't talk 1-on-1 daily. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > So glad to hear that Range has been as helpful as you've shared here, Matt. Thanks for taking the time to share this feedback! If you have any other requests for how we can help you and others get more out of Range, please do let us know. ### 15. Good tool for Hybrid/Remote teams **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Tim M. | Co-Founder & Chief Data Scientist, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 28, 2022 **What do you like best about Range?** The ability to create templates for meetings and populate an agenda prior to the meeting. **What do you dislike about Range?** I would love to see an ability to sync action items across different meetings. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** Helps me as a team leader in daily meetings and having my team in sync using checkins and aciton items functionality. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Thanks for sharing your feedback about Range with others, Tim. You can pull in the meeting action items for attendees in meetings. If that's not what you're looking for, I'd love to find out what you'd like to see in Range so I can share it with the team. ### 16. Organization/Motivation **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Biotechnology | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 07, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** I really like doing the daily check in, it's nice to plan out my day and the integration with google calendar is nice. I like to also see what my team is doing and see their responses to questions. **What do you dislike about Range?** One thing I'm struggling with is that I feel like I use it once in the morning and then not again until the next day. I wanted to create meeting notes for a previously scheduled meeting not through range but through google and could not figure out how too. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** It's perfect if you work at a remote company and want to stay on track and organized. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** I can more openly communicate with my team members. Our company is fully remote so it's nice to see what everyone is working on. It also helps me lay out my day and what I need to get done. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > I'm glad to read your finding value in using Range, and thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience and feedback here. ### 17. It's hard to figure out the meeting structure **Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Allison D. | Product Designer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 10, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** Easy to use calender feature and add my meetings to my morning check-in **What do you dislike about Range?** Hard to figure out meetings, like to start one, how to add an agenda item without actually starting the meeting session, etc. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** I don't have a succinct recommendation, but I do find it very hard to use the meetings. For example, I accidentally try to start a meeting when I simply want to add a flag or blocker as a meeting topic. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are trying to let my remote teammates know what I am up to for the day, and also using it as a way to structure our meetings on Zoom. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Sorry to hear you've had trouble understanding our meetings tool. We'd be more than happy to connect with you and share how Meetings works if that's something you're interested in. support@range.co or our chat bot will get you connected to our team. ### 18. Brilliant Product for Building Connection Within Teams **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Peter S. | Executive Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 09, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** The templates are great building blocks; the ability to personalize and adapt the check-in and meeting templates keeps our team engagement high. The product integrations allow us to use Range as our structured central communication space. I love that the Range team is active in their creative development of the product. **What do you dislike about Range?** Being browser-based limits some the portability that having a dedicated app would provide. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** The meeting templates have kept our zoom meetings in focus and on time. The check-ins have increased the level of awareness across the teams. The new report feature allows leadership to identify trends and areas of need or focus. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Hi there, Peter. Thank you for sharing your feedback here! I also look forward to when we've got an app developed and released for everyone! ### 19. A great way to keep tabs on the whole team. **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Max K. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 15, 2020 **What do you like best about Range?** I never have to leave slack, I can easily view everybody's check-ins, and check in myself **What do you dislike about Range?** Nothing really. There are some parts we don't use but there is nothing wrong with them, they just don't fit our workflow. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** Be flexible with it. Try features out, but don't force yourself to use everything. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** It's 10 times better than a stand-up. Way less time consuming. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > It's great to hear that our Slack integration has been so useful for you. And it's also great to hear that you've found Check-ins a solid alternative to your former standups. Thank you for sharing your experience here! ### 20. Recommendation **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Martins R. | Customer Support, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 17, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** Keeps my teams informed on activities. Lets everyone know what they are working on. I like the fact that I get reminded of inputing my tasks for the day at the same time everyday. I love the fact that I can check in using different methods. **What do you dislike about Range?** I do not get notified when a team member completes a task. Would also like reminders to be more aggressive. So as to get more people to talk on their tasks for the day. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** Go for it. It increases productivity by a wide margin **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** The problem of getting everyone's stand ups. We are not benefiting financially yet though but it takes time. Our team is more productive as well. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Hi there, Martins. Just wanted to say thank you for sharing your feedback and review of Range here to help others determine if Range is the right tool for them and their team. ### 21. Range is great for distributed teams **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 07, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** My favorite part is how the tool is bringing my team together and helping to create trust. My team loves to spin the wheel using the Check-in integration for meetings. I love the questions and emojis on each status, helping me see where my team is at on the emotional spectrum for a day or a week. **What do you dislike about Range?** It's difficult to integrate with our productivity tools like Microsoft Office and JIRA. Without these integrations it's hard to get value out of the OKR portions of the tool without redoing work. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** Range has made it easier than ever to bring together project status and turn actions from meetings into tasks. I love having everything together and getting out of email! **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Thanks for sharing this feedback here. We do have a native Jira integration. Please do reach out to us (support@range.co) if you're having trouble connecting it! ### 22. I'm very organized and Range lets me organize **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Marian S. | Customer Support Representative, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 22, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** It is simple and intuitive, we can organize as a team and we can put our moods **What do you dislike about Range?** Nothing at the moment, range is super intuitive and helps us in the organization so at the moment I have no complaints. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** You must activate notifications to be able to remember your tasks **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** We can set goals and have a weekly follow-up of it, in turn being able to see what the other teams are doing **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Hi, Marian. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and experience with Range here! ### 23. A great organisation tool **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 06, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** I like having a digital to-do list that pulls in documents from Google Drive and work to complete in JIRA; this keeps everything I need to do in one place giving me more control over my day. I've not seen a competitor do this so well. **What do you dislike about Range?** I dislike not being able to privatize the documents that I use in my to-do list, as sometimes I want a document to be visible to ONLY me, even my team should not see it. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** A written to-do list gets lost. I can rearrange the order that I will complete my to-do list in and can easily come back to anything I have left. Also, some of the features like hosting a meeting are quite useful. I don't tend to use this feature as much; the first time I tried to it wasn't very clear and so I've not gotten into the habit of using it. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > I'm glad to hear you've been finding Range so helpful. And please do continue sharing any product/feature feedback you have with us! ### 24. Complete toolkit for fostering team cohesion **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Dexter H. | Technical Marketing (Contract), Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 10, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** Round Robin tools that bring everyone into the conversation + meeting tools that teach facilitators and participants great meeting hygiene + async checkin tools for keeping remote teams on the same page + regular ice breakers for bringing the conversation beyond work. **What do you dislike about Range?** Collaborating on notes and artifacts during meetings isn't as good as other multi-cursor tools like Google Docs. Meeting action items can sometimes land on an island separate from our other to-do tracking tools -- more integrations here would be great! **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** Building a connected, cohesive team where everyone feels included, heard, and informed—productive meetings with clear agendas and action items. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Hey there, Dexter! Thanks for taking some time to leave this review and feedback for Range. The team appreciates it. And please do continue to let us know what improvements we can make to make Range even more effective and valuable. ### 25. Range review by Ahsan Akhtar **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** M.

Good Service **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Accounting | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 24, 2022 **What do you like best about Range?** Quickly email Respond, Always open to help **What do you dislike about Range?** Nothing, everything is good, no complaints **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** Always easy to have team meetings ### 29. Range has been an excellent tool to facilitate asynchronous working and standups, **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 06, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** User-friendly and intuitive UI Integrations with most of the main tools we use (GCal, Jira, Github, Slack) Relevant meeting templates Being able to easily interact, share feedback and share praise! **What do you dislike about Range?** 3 meeting limit on the free plan Nothing else really! **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** The main problem we are trying to solve is asynchronous working with a remote team, and Range has helped massively with this **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Really glad to hear that Range is helping you and your team manage remote and asynchronous work. Thanks for sharing your feedback! ### 30. A friendly team stand up site with great todo list functionalities **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Julia Z. | S, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 29, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** I like the emojis the best! It's fun to have a simple representation of "how I'm feeling", and it's fun to be able to react outrageously by "liking" something a bunch of times. **What do you dislike about Range?** It doesn't work as a standalone tool, since there's not much in the way of chat. Adding extra tools that need to be used can make it easier to forget one. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** If your team doesn't like having meetings but would still heavily benefit from stand up style information, this is a great tool for you. It also has sometimes silly sometimes serious questions that, if optional, make it a gentle way to get to know your coworkers. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** I really like the todo list. I think writing down a list at the beginning of the day makes it a lot easier to remember what actually needs to be done (the same principles of bullet journaling, really). **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Hi, Julia. Really appreciate you taking the time to share your experiences with Range here, and providing recommendations to others thinking about a product like ours. Thanks for using Range! ### 31. The perfect distributed (and local) team productivity suite **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Emanuel "Manny" d. | Senior Engineering Manager, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 23, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** Range integrations makes it a hub of information about your team health in terms of progress but also in the personal and cultural side with the daily check-ins and questions of the day. The meetings and objectives modules are really useful for teams that run metric oriented goals and reassess it frequently. **What do you dislike about Range?** The daily check-ins are kind of unstructured and things are not task oriented. Even though you can create a checklist of things, it is unclear how to report progress other than what was completed and not. Some integrations (like calendar) also creates a lot of noise in the app suggesting calendar events from weeks behind, however, it is optional to use. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** I currently run 5 different teams. I don't think I could have the context of everything that is going with goals, objectives, metrics, progress, and how my teams are feeling and working together if I needed to do that using 10 different tools. Range concentrates all the information for me and creates smart summaries I can read everyday and have a good understanding with a quick glance. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Manny, it's so great to learn how valuable Range has been for you and your many teams. Thank you for taking the time to share your experiences with Range for others to discover! ### 32. Very convenient for teams and for personal task tracking **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Luis V. | Lead Data Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 23, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** The most convenient part is the profile view that shows daily timeline. It helps generate work logs and helps reminding myself what I accomplished on any given day. It also helps me stay organized with its backlog tasks. The Team Questions are also great for getting to know your team better. . . with fun questions and weekend follow--ups. We use the meeting feature. . . which has a fun spinner feature to start off each meeting with icebreakers. The integrations are also a really nice feature. We have integrations set up for Slack and JIRA. **What do you dislike about Range?** The timing of check-ins and what day they're counted can get confusing. There's no direct indication of when you need to check in and how many times, yet the platform still automatically attributes tasks to a specific day. It seems like it's meant so that you have to check twice a day. . .but it's tedious to check in more than once a day. If you don't. . . you end up with tasks attributed to the wrong days. The O K R features are also a bit confusing to use. . . and tagging / flagging tasks highlights them for the day in check-ins by having a section called "Flagged Items", but there doesn't seem to be an option to turn that off. . . **Recommendations to others considering Range:** The best approach is to have a team consensus on when/how to check in. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** Project management and collaboration. . . we use Range for informing managers where we are in projects. It also helps to get a sense of where our attention is being drawn throughout each days. . . it helps us find areas of distraction and improvements. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Hi, Luis. Thanks so much for sharing so much great feedback here with us. Really glad to learn Range is making a difference on your team. Regarding timing of when your team publishes Check-ins, I'm including a help article for a recent feature we released called Check-in Schedules. This will allow you and your team to make some edits to the reminders and summaries that Range sends out. Hope it helps! https://www.range.co/help/article/how-to-create-and-edit-check-in-schedules ### 33. A great tool for team async checkins **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 07, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** We can't believe this tool is free. It's so easy for the team to use. The questions that each team member is great to get to know them. **What do you dislike about Range?** The Slack integration is a little confusing. I usually login at the range website to do my check ins **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** Team camaraderie. And prioritization of daily tasks. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Thanks for taking the time to review and share your feedback on Range. Please do check out our help center articles on Slack if you're having any trouble, and our support team would certainly be able to help you gett better acclimated to it. You can reach us at support@range.co, or through the chat feature on our website. ### 34. Everything is very nice. **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Franco F. | onboarding sp, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 23, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** The states with emojis, perhaps. Obviously their functionalities **What do you dislike about Range?** NOTHING!!!! Well, maybe, some functionalities **Recommendations to others considering Range:** ... **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** Our group and individual objectives **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Thank you for your comments, Franco! ### 35. Fun, helpful and keeps me motivated **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 16, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** I love how easy it is to use; adding new tasks and checking them off is so neat and tidy. I like the team question every day too; it's such an excellent exercise. **What do you dislike about Range?** There's no way to mark something as pending or in progress, I think this would be a great addition. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** Timekeeping, keeping on top of tasks, prioritising tasks. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Really glad to learn you have been finding Range so helpful! And thanks for sharing your feedback here. Also, definitely agree with you that a "pending" or "in-progress" status marker would be SUPER useful. Thanks for sharing! ### 36. Genuinely impactful remote collaboration tool **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 20, 2020 **What do you like best about Range?** Working 100% remote, Range is a truly amazing tool for remote collaboration. After a few months of using it, our small team has already seen significant improvements in collaboration levels. We've also seen a real boost in general camaraderie and have been able to get to know one another thanks to the daily culture questions. On a personal level, I really enjoy using Range as the very first part of my morning routine - checking in sets me up for the day and allows me to have a concise overview of what I expect to achieve that day. I truly can't imagine not using Range now. **What do you dislike about Range?** I think that there could be some improvements to the home page from a UX perspective to help me get a quick overview of what my teammates are working on. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** Don't hesitate! It is easy to introduce to your team and has a wealth of benefits. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** We have increased our collaboration and teamwork significantly since starting to use Range. We have also become a lot closer as a team. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > We're so happy to hear that Range has been making such a difference on your team. Thank you so much for taking the time to share yours and your team's experience. ### 37. Great tool for team interactions & accountability **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Juan M. | Senior Technical Lead, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 29, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** It is very easy to use and interact with my team mates. The questions added each day for the stand-up help to provide some insights on my team and have some interaction in times where remote is causing a lot of isolation. The UI is clean and it is useful as a todo list app. I am able to add items and mark them as done throughout the day **What do you dislike about Range?** Some of the questions are a bit repetitive. I can't add my own questions for the team which could be lots of fun. Sometimes the github integration does not work and some issues/prs are not added for me to insert them on my list. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** It is a great tool to manage your team and keep some interaction going. I would highly suggest it for distributed teams specially if you are having a hard time of keeping track of everyone's current work. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are making sure we have a record of people stand-up and their progress. it helps us to have a more streamlined view of all our employees stand-up and task they mentioned were to be completed. This is very useful to find people that are stuck on tasks or are very prone to overpromise but underdeliver. It also helps when investigating blockers and who could potentially block someone else. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Hi, Juan. It's great to learn the difference Range has been making on your team and that you are experiencing the value and benefits we intended for teams. Thank you for taking the time to communicate all of your team's experiences here, and for being a Range user! ### 38. Standups Eliminated! **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 26, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** I like that the check-ins are structured and simple to complete. Compared to other asynchronous stand-up or check-in tools, these check-ins feel quick and fun. I also really like the weekly themes and check-in questions. They allow us to continue to build safety and belonging in our team even through these small interactions. Another plus is the easy integration with Teams and Email, so folks can interact with the platform regardless of their tech-friendliness. **What do you dislike about Range?** The integrations with other tools are nice (we use Calendar and Asana the most) but sometimes clumsy in fetching our full backlog of tasks. If Range built out a little more project management (shared and visualized backlogs and tasks) we could probably use it as a stand-alone sprint manager, which would be awesome. Also editing the meetings can be a little clumsy-- I'd love to see more auto-save functionality when editing the content for a meeting. I often lose my changes because I expect things to update automatically. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** We have been able to replace our daily standups with Range, which has been a huge help as we work more remotely and asynchronously. I have used asynchronous stand-up tools before, but they felt like a pain and folks often forgot to do them. Range is easy and fun to use-- everyone on my team completes their check-ins without fail because they are enjoyable and fast. We also use Range to run our weekly sprint retro and planning meetings. I like the spinning wheel feature for icebreakers and closing questions. We don't often use the follow-up actions feature here but I can see it being useful if we start to in the future. I also appreciate that the use limits feel generous and it integrates with all our tools. The mood tracker and personalized handbooks are also really nice features and will help as we onboard additional remote team members in the coming months. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Hello! Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback with us! And thank you for all of this feedback. I'll be submitting your integrations and Meetings suggestions with the team. Really glad to learn you and the team are enjoying Range and that it's helping to make a difference. ### 39. Easy to use, yet powerful way to connect our remote team **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** James G. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 05, 2020 **What do you like best about Range?** Really easy to set up, integrates with Slack, Google Calendar, Jira, and more. Range features great predefined questions that prompt the team to share more and learn about each other on a person as well as professional level. The OKRs features are also pretty powerful, and I have started using them personally to help me understand day to day performance compared to monthly and quarterly goals. The integrations with Google Calendar, Jira, and other tools really help to get my todos together and share them with the rest of the team – especially as someone who works across teams within the business. E.g. not everyone is in Jira or our growth meetings, so it's a great way to get that info to everyone efficiently without much extra effort. **What do you dislike about Range?** Very minor: Slack integration could be a little neater and easier to read when sharing updates that feature tasks from the Google Calendar integration. More down to internal process, but I like the idea of doing OKRs through Range, we just haven't made it work with our other processes (and we use Notion for the majority of internal documentation) – so would be great in the future to see an integration with Notion to solve this. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** Just start – test it out with a few team members, or even yourself. And if you already use Slack, definitely get the integration set up to nudge you to post updates regularly. It's a huge help! **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** Helping the team understand what everyone else is up to every day while working remote. It's rally transformed how we connect asynchronously. We started using Range before lockdown, when some of the team were remote, and it really helped people in the office and those remote collaborate and understand schedules better. It's been surprising how much the extra questions have helped us share and learn more about each other as a team. Has added a lot of fun to another wise dry process of team updates. I love that the extra questions didn't require any setup – otherwise we would never have created so many or put so much thought in. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > It's great to hear that you and your team are learning more about one another and managing to stay connected through work during this time. And it's really awesome to hear you're looking at how your work rolls up to the objectives your team supports. Thank you for sharing! ### 40. Good service! **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Health, Wellness and Fitness | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 10, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** I like the accessibility of Range. It gives you variety. **What do you dislike about Range?** Not sure about the notifications features. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** I am getting a baseline for team members and creating action steps. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Thank you for taking a moment to share your experience with Range! ### 41. Range is the Ultimate Collaborative Team Tool **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 15, 2020 **What do you like best about Range?** Range is very user friendly making it easier for any team to use. It also is so nice to keep up with each teammate and see what they’re doing if you don’t have time to check in every day. Just keeps everyone on track. Also we are able to track OKRs with hashtags and keep track of them together. **What do you dislike about Range?** Honestly there isn’t anything I dislike about the platform. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** It helps remote teams stay cohesive. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** The ability to check in with the team without having to actually send emails that can be time consuming. Also it eliminates having too many meetings, we can check in once a week and go over everything as needed. That is huge! **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Thanks for taking the time to share your experience with Range. It's great to learn how beneficial it's been to you and the team, and the Check-ins are making real difference and saving you all time. ### 42. Range is awesome for remote teams **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Anthony L. | Software Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 23, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** I have used a few stand-up helpers for Slack for our remote team. Range by far gave the most flexibility where the team can check-in at their convenience. **What do you dislike about Range?** We don't use many other features like objectives and such. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are a distributed team with various time zones. The range does a great job not just asking for daily stand-up, they have amazing curated questions to bring more life to the meeting and to get to know other staff. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Hi, Anthony. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback for Range here! It's great to learn that it's making a big difference on your distributed team. ### 43. Recommended **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 29, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** Range can be integrated with Asana, Google Calendar and Slack, which are essential for our team. You can complete your daily checkin directly on Slack or in Range’s website. Using Range has solved our team alignment problem, now we know who is working on which tasks or who might be burnout. Also, we like Range’s language and daily questions that you may answer when you check in. That’s fun to read the answers in our Slack channel. **What do you dislike about Range?** - Sometimes newly opened tasks don’t appear on Range quickly but that is tolerable. - If I opened a task a month ago, I can’t add it to my plan today. But if I complete it today, I can add it to the “what happened” part of my checkin. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** Most of my team are using Range through Slack integration. But I personally would like to see all items I planned properly, that’s why I prefer to use Range’s website. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** - team alignment - remote team management **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Thank you for sharing both what's been working well for you and your team and a couple areas where we can still make some improvements! ### 44. Range is the tool we never knew we needed **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Gene Y. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 22, 2020 **What do you like best about Range?** In a remote environment, the best part about range is feeling connected. Being able to see our teammates plugging away, it gives me the sense that we are together and not apart. I like the feature about our mood, and the ability to comment on eachother's success -these are such tiny little things that help us align and row together in a way that was never possible before. I like that my team can all develop habits and flows that work for us, that we know at a certain time each one of us generally checks-in and it makes us really feel like we are connected, even though we are apart. **What do you dislike about Range?** The only downsides is there are not enough integrations ! I wish range could capture everything I do ! For example, the work I did on Figma was only capture when I worked in the browser, not on the desktop app. Wish they had a notion integration too ! **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** The problem of connectedness in a remote world has really been solved. Being that our teams work all over the country, different time zones and at different parts of the day, we all worked asynchronously and Range has solved the problem of helping us get a quick overview of what's happening - it's given us a data point that was never there before. The benefit we realized was a gauge of how much each other are working and accomplishing - this datapoint made us realize if we were slacking or over working ! **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience with Range. We're working hard to bring you and others more integrations so you can connect the tools you love, so do stay tuned! ### 45. Range made check ins easy and integrated **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Eren H. | Head of Corporate Innovation Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 23, 2021 **What do you like best about Range?** Connectivity is the best feature for me. I can do my check-ins through slack by getting my tasks from Asana and Calendar. **What do you dislike about Range?** When I try to check-in through slack most of the time Asana tasks and Calendar items either appear incorrect order or doesn't appear. And also next day when I try to check-in form doesn't come clean. I need to remove all previous attachments and texts. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** Making check-ins easy and regular within my team. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Thank you for this feedback, Eren, and thank you for sharing a few things we can improve upon in the product! ### 46. Range is just what our team needed during this time of remote work **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Raz Y. | Co-Founder and CTO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 20, 2020 **What do you like best about Range?** I like the simple and easy daily update form that takes only 1-2 minutes to complete. It helps each of our team members to focus on their day ahead and share it in an easy to follow format. The bullet list of things I'll do today is actually a check-list, so the next day you get to check off the things you finished (or not). I also like that it asks a daily team-building question. Reading everyone's daily updates is a great way to start your day. The last thing I like is that you can quickly set your mood and state with a simple green/yellow/red categorized emoji, so we can quickly see where you are, how you feel, and if you need the team's support with anything. **What do you dislike about Range?** I feel that Range's integration with Slack can be improved. Although it uses Slack in a good way (updating a shared daily message each time a team member submits an update), the data entry mode from Slack feels like it is not strong enough to replace the Range's web application. I wished I could use the in-line slack without the need to go to the app. Also some of the other integrations, such as Jira are not intuitive enough and I end up not using them as much. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** Signing up and trying it takes less than 15 minutes, so my recommendation is: just try it out and check if it works for your team. We found it to be very helpful and we staid with it. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** Having a daily "standup" without trying to have all remote team members share the same location and schedule. We have a group of early risers and night owls, so finding a daily time to do a standup is hard. Also, from experience, it is almost impossible to have a daily standup that is really under 10 minutes. This tool is a great way to ensure that we meet only when we need to, not just to update on our progress/status. It also helps us build this team by asking all these daily prompts about ourselves (personal and work-related) to build a better bond between us as a team. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Hi, Raz. Thanks so much for detailing so much of your experience with Range and sharing how our product can help other teams. There are lots of improvements we're looking to bring to our integrations, so your feedback here is very helpful. ### 47. my opinion **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Betty S. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 06, 2020 **What do you like best about Range?** What I like most about Range is the fact that everything is so perfectly designed and located that it allows me to visualize in a very simple way the current reality of our reports and the status of our project in a very simple way, its The main board shows me the information in a fairly complete way but at the same time very summarized, which allows us from the beginning to know which are the tasks that are in development and which are pending to be executed, the simplicity of its interface is something quite good and practical, since when we decided to start using this tool the shock was not so sudden, since in a few minutes all the staff already knew how to use the application, the fact that it allows me to customize the dashboard is also a very valuable tool when moment of having to specify the status of the activities since I can customize columns according to the status they are in (Completed, In development, Pending). **What do you dislike about Range?** I like the fact that it has email notifications when the status of an activity is changed, however the main problem is that it sends them late, for example if today someone from the team changes the status of an activity, the day of tomorrow is when the notifications arrive with the changes made. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** Basically it has been helping us to maintain a higher level of control and mastery of our work activities in a much simpler and easier way than we had previously handled, since in this way everyone can be aware of the information in real time, so there are no conflicts with two people doing the same activity during the same period of time. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Hi, Betty! Thrilled to learn how much you like the UI/UX our team worked so hard to get right. We do have some options for how you receive notifications related to activity in Range, so I encourage you to check out https://range.co/_/settings/notifications if you haven't already.\ Thanks so much for being a Range user and for taking the time to share your experiences with others! ### 48. A simple way to keep everyone updated **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Pedro L. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 20, 2020 **What do you like best about Range?** It is simple and having a low barrier of adoption is awesome in my context (people not so tech-savy). Having all the information available, we no longer use time in meetings for updates, for instance. **What do you dislike about Range?** I think it would work best as an aggregator of diverse tasks. Most people that I work with are used to different apps to organise themselves, so I think that if Range had some more features to structure all the tasks, it would be great! It is really hard to have people to get the habit of using a project management tool, since most of them are not so tech-savy. Range is simpler, but lacks the structure to cluster tasks in projects other than tags or objectives. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** Making information visible in the organization. It saves time. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Very happy to hear that your team was able to reclaim some of that valuable synchronous time during meetings with the help of Range. Also, thanks for all of the feedback here! Will share this feedback with the team. ### 49. Great tool for efficient updates **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Emma D. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 15, 2020 **What do you like best about Range?** I like how easy it is to link updates to Github pul requests. I also like that it links to my google calendar so I can easily display meetings in my update. **What do you dislike about Range?** I am unable to link to Jira tickets that have not been created by or recently updated by me. Other than that issue I have found Range to be great. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** We used to have long stand up meetings where everyone on the team discussed what they had done yesterday and what was on their agenda for today. These meetings were too long and inefficient so we implemented Range. It has been a huge help and time saver and I like that the info is recorded so I can go back and reference people's updates. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Really glad to hear that Range has helped to make your standups more efficient. Thank you for sharing your experience with Range and helping others see how it might be helpful for them and their teams. ### 50. Range makes stand ups and team syncing easy **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jonni L. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 16, 2020 **What do you like best about Range?** I love how it helps incentivize the team members into providing visibility across your team. They do this by covering the main areas: meetings, check-ins, objectives, and team directories. **What do you dislike about Range?** Some features are still in the early stages and clearly need improvements to fully replace other tools. An example would be the meeting functionality lacks robust collaboration tools. **Recommendations to others considering Range:** Range is only as useful as it is used. It's helpful to work with your team to see if this time of collaboration and visibility is a priority. Otherwise, you will just be working to get people to use it and you won't see as much benefit from the tool. **What problems is Range solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are solving team silos and lack of visibility on work towards our objectives across the organization. **Official Response from Michael Boykin:** > Thanks so much for sharing the problems you're solving with Range and the experience you and your team have had so far. The team at Range greatly appreciates your support! ## Range Discussions - [What is Range used for?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-is-range-used-for) - [What is the great new change for Range?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/49529-what-is-the-great-new-change-for-range) - 1 upvote - [View Range pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/range/reviews?section=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-06-02+13%3A25%3A34+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=697d6e92-4400-4050-b46b-ab5894112c7c&secure%5Btoken%5D=6e7737eb9f8417acc9633ab81e54caca19d3ff75a09e02be0740bbc42e6c6f4a&format=llm_user) ## Range Features **Communication** - Feedback - Confidence Levels - Messaging Integrations **Agentic AI - Productivity Bots** - Autonomous Task Execution - Cross-system Integration - Adaptive Learning - Decision Making **Pre-Meeting Tools** - Templates - Agenda **Goal Creation** - Team OKR - Action Item Creation **Meeting Tools** - Notes - File Sharing **Agentic AI - Objectives and Key Results (OKR)** - Natural Language Interaction - Proactive Assistance **Post-Meeting Tools** - Task Delegation - Participant Email **Agentic AI - Meeting Management** - Autonomous Task Execution - Cross-system Integration - Proactive Assistance ## Top Range Alternatives - [Fellow](https://www.g2.com/products/fellow/reviews) - 4.7/5.0 (2,402 reviews) - [Coda](https://www.g2.com/products/superhuman-coda/reviews) - 4.6/5.0 (476 reviews) - [Lattice](https://www.g2.com/products/lattice-lattice/reviews) - 4.7/5.0 (3,934 reviews)
