We have something similar at my job. They never adopted standups, but instead have a spot where you're encouraged to post daily updated and blockers, completely at your own convenience. Standups at my last job were terrible. Nobody paid attention to each other when they gave their updates. Often, two of the attendants would get into a discussion that would take up the entire meeting that was only relevant to something the two of them were interested in. The meeting organizers wouldn't stop it from happening, but would also rebuke you for being rude if you walked out while it happened.
