Compared with Slack and Zoom, it's way faster - just click and start talking!
Think of it as push-to-talk, 2.0, with a richer sense of presence (seeing what work app, so you know if you're interrupting anything).
- pj_mukh 7y agoPush-to-talk was the killer feature for us. We've been using it extensively. There are no silver bullets in managing (and being) remote teams, but Tandem helps a lot along the way!

- rajivayyangar 7y agoThe maker-manager dilemma is real - which is something we try to address with the prominent Focus mode. At the same time, a big reason we show the app status is so that the "business owners" can hopefully take cues and minimize their interruptiveness. For example, as a product manager, I will often decide not to bother my co-founder Tim because I see he's in a coding editor (and thus in deep-focus).
