From my perspective, the app is a good alternative to the purple industry standard for companies that don't want to spend as much on licenses. We mainly use the chat and channel function as well as the site function. The chat works very well and has received numerous new features in the last couple of years. It offers all the functions you expect from an up-to-date messenger. The channel function is a great tool to spread news. And lastly, the sites function helps to organize information. There are many more functions the flip app offers (calendar, tasks, integration of other tools as well as just recently added AI functions like chat based workflows and knowledge base search similar to the popular LLMs. I wish, though, there would be better video call functionality in the app as well as automated replies in chats as a way of absence assistance and the function to forward messages to other people. All in all, the app strongly contributes to our internal communication and and plays a crucial role in our employee satisfaction.Read all insights and reviews for Flip
