What do you like best about @work?
So the @Work app is definitely a good choice for an engineering or IT team. It has a lot of features that will help your team improve their productivity. The key features are:
Matter Screen: This screen has three useful widgets, which are Announcement, Learn@Work and Meet@Work. Announcement is a good place to send general announcements for your team, Learn@Work is for posting upcoming courses or seminars useful for your team, and Meet@Work shows the team members any upcoming meetings.
Chat: This is a persistant chat interface, similar to other apps of this type. It is easy to set up individual chats and group chats, and it also very straight forward for sharing images. It has a context menu for setting up voice or video calls. Screensharing is similar to how it is done in competing apps.
Learning@Work: This is the main screen for Learning, which is referenced by the Matter screen. This shows coursework and progress for your team. With this feature, I imagine @Work could also work well for a training center or college course. Of course, most IT companies have required training, so this will work for that as well.
Feed: This is where you can set up a news feed. Basically, this is for persistant information that you'd like to keep available. It is easy to use and supports posting images. It you post a link to something, it will share the link with a short description based on the Web page parameters. (It does the same thing in chat, but chat is meant for less persistent content.)
Services: This shows widgets related to File(Cloud Storage), Learn Admin(Learning@Work Administration), Learn@Work Service Widget, Meet@Work Service Widget, Support@Work(for contacting the @Work support team), and Survey@Work (which is for setting up surveys for your team). You can also add other services and useful Web links to this section.
Profile: This is you user profile, which shows all of your posts, your Friends list, and your user information. This is where you can add a picture of yourself as well.
Menu: This has typical menu items like Edit functions with undo and redo and similar commonly used functions.
Gear Menu: This has more advanced settings for your @Work team, for example, it allows you to set themes for the @Work app. It covers a comprehensive list of settings which I won't go over in this reviews.
Based on my usage of @Work, I think it is a great collaberation tool for any corporate or education team, I think you should certainly consider it as an alternative to some of the other commonly used corporate communication tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
