SoWork Reviews

SoWork is super easy to use and super intuitive. The map and room based navigation with proximity based video connection is a game change. It's by far the best virtual workspace platform I've used.

It's not optimal for large group events or webinars, but to be fair, that's not really the use case.

SoWork makes it really easy to work with coworkers without being on camera all the time and to have networking events where you can actively choose who to approach in a manner that emulates real life.

1. I am a big fan of SoWork. No other tool provides almost real-time collaboration.

2. Pricing is better than others.

3. Their meeting summary is unbelievable and super helpful.

4. Very easy to implement. It takes 2 minutes to get started.

5. Customer support is very friendly.

6. Having game zones is literally like having water coolers in office that facilitate friendships.

7. It is so easy to track who is in and out of office.

8. Their team analytics dashboard is something people will never get in in-office environment. After looking at those dashboards, I would prefer my whole team to be remote.

9. IMPORTANT: It is a great tool to host your parties, invite your customers and vendors, interview your candidates in this environment.

10. Team Zones concept is very a smart concept.

Actually nothing. I enjoy their constant upgrades. You can see how team is passionate about constant improvement.

SoWork is extremely easy to use and integrate with your team. You can set up in minutes with premade maps, so you are ready to go. They offer a 28-day trial period, which is highly generous. Have fun decorating your area or the whole map! There are so many features like screen sharing, video conferencing, and recording. Need help with taking meeting notes? They have that covered, too! You can dress your character as yourself or as an alter ego.

Have a problem? No problem. The SoWork team is very responsive and helpful. Have you ever wondered if there is something not working right? SoWork lets you know as soon as they do it right in the app. They also do not use as much bandwidth on your computer as other platforms I have used in the past.

You can enjoy weekly updates and metrics to see how your team works with each other and how often they are using the system. My team uses it daily!!

Nothing! I have not found anything to dislike on SoWork.

SoWork is our office. Our company is remote first which means we have more remote employees than people in the area of our main office. SoWork makes it so I can meet with anyone I need to. We hold team meetings, 1:1's, and I can stop by someone's desk if I have a question or just want to chat.

I'd like the most the It is the interactivity of the platform with co-workers, the agility and tracking of information that is very important for our business. In addition to having many performance indicators that help leadership when making decisions

Sometimes it is heavy if you dont have a good computer !!

The cost of monthly rent !! And is Helping us a lot to organize de team and the agilitiy of the main process.

Foundery is a home for startup founders all over the world to come together, build real relationships & help each other grow- themselves & their businesses.

We couldn't deliver our experience without SoWork- they're accessible from everywhere, and actually built for real humans not robots.

And sure, they have robots built in too to do all kinds of next gen stuff like summarize meetings, assign action items, etc. but the real benefit to us is that people spend hours/days/weeks in our space, and don't feel fatigue like you get from those 'video chat' tools.

Honestly the list is shrinking by the week. It used to be mobile app, but they delivered that. Before that it was stability/bugs, like most startups, but they've squashed those repeatedly too.

Maybe it's how hard it is to find some of the more advanced, power user features before you know about them. But that's pretty standard too, and the basics of getting our founders in & up to speed on the platform is super simple to use, which matters way more to us.

SoWork gives us something we couldn't get anywhere else- a distributed place for working together, that's actually human-centric & made for real people to be their real selves.

It benefits us & our customers because they get to behave like they already know how to & work like. Walk into meetings together. Grab lunch together and catch up.

Working remote for a lot of people feels lonely, but with Sowork you can feel you are more closer to your team mates, and makes more easy communications that are not scheduled, fostering relationships and strongering culture.

I miss a push notifications feature, for getting urgent comunications

Streamline and facilitate communications, have a better sense on what's happening at the organization

SoWork makes me feel connected to my students even though we are all far apart. Classrooms live through interaction, and SoWork allows for ways of interaction not even possible in in-person classrooms. Student could sign up super easily, and we can invite guests to our classroom without problems. SoWork is our hub for all kinds of other applications we use in class, so there is no need to ever leave our virtual classroom! The customer support feels like you are talking to new friends. Honestly just impressed by this application!

There is nothing that I dislike about SoWork. I would love some more extension toward classroom uses.

As a class, we learn best when being together, learning from one another, and solving activities together. SoWork makes all of this easy even though students and teachers are spatially separated. I can give my students a lot more agency than in a normal video conferencing app, which is crucial for learning success.

Every year we do the closing events of our programs in SoWork, and every year, I notice that the platform becomes more versatile, flexible and easy to implement, where one can accommodate the spaces according to the needs, with lots of tools. In addition, I identify that access and use is becoming more intuitive and accessible. It is a very enjoyable platform for the public that uses it. SoWork's support people provide a very quick response to queries or problems.

Given that the platform is heavy and consumes a lot of internet, when connections are not so fast it is difficult to use or it is not possible to access. I would also consider improving its access and use from cell phones, in case PCs are not available. At the same time, a tutorial on access and use for people who are not digital natives could be included, considering the technical requirements of the platform and main tools. We prepared one specifically for the event we did, but perhaps there are things we are missing and it would be good to explain in more detail.

SoWork gives us the possibility to recreate events that we used to do in a face-to-face format, making virtual interaction between people easier and more enjoyable. At the same time, it allows the participation of people from different countries.

The ability to feel closer to the team, quickly walk to someone and start talking, the platform remove the communication frictions of the remote work experience

Hard to say. Everyone likes it. Maybe for old computers, it slows down the system a bit.

Quickly communicate and monitoring team work

Being a remote worker has its own set of challenges, but SoWork has significantly eased this journey for me. The platform's intuitive design and user-friendly interface make it stand out in the crowded space of remote work tools.

Limited Customization in Some Areas: While the overall experience is great, I've found that some areas lack customization options, which would be helpful in tailoring the workspace to specific team needs.

Learning Curve: For new users, there might be a slight learning curve in understanding all the features and the best ways to utilize them.

SoWork significantly improves my remote working experience by enhancing team collaboration, providing valuable insights into team dynamics, simplifying communication, aiding in maintaining a healthy work-life balance, and integrating seamlessly with other business tools. These improvements lead to increased productivity, better team cohesion, and overall job satisfaction in a remote work environment.
