I initially loved Dropbox Paper.
However, being so easy to manipulate it has become a place of braindumping. I begged my boss to separate his personal notes vs. company documents. It has gone out of hand. Tons of unattended documents that people have forgotten about.
Creating new documents and editing them has become so cheap (congrats to paper devs for managing that) that its backfiring in our case.
As for team conferencing, we used many many different tools. Recently we started using zoom.us and the quality is amazing. Much higher framerate and resolution with a better CPU usage.
- sitkack 9y agoMy company uses hangouts almost exclusively, but I have had a chance to work with a 3rd party that uses zoom and zoom is amazing. It just works. Most conferencing software I rate on a numberline of hate. Zoom doesn't even exist on that dimension for me.
- antjanus 9y agoI could never get hangouts to work properly across platforms/devices. Once I had to spend 15-20 minutes with an interview candidate setting it up (it messed up on both sides) at which point, I refused to do hangouts with anyone.
- dsnuh 9y agoAgreed. I wish my company used zoom.us. It is so painless.
- chucky_z 9y agoWe're in the process of trying to get a trial for Zoom, as we initially bought in heavily on Google Hangouts and it's proving to be a terrible UX. I know how to use it, and I've shown everyone how to setup meetings, add rooms, etc... several times now, but it never sticks. I say "trying" to get a trial, as two people from our company have contacted Zoom multiple times, and while the initial contact is great, we just cannot get any followups. It's very frustrating, especially considering that all my dealings with Promevo have been absolutely outstanding.
