I agree. The ideal situation is when they are on the same page and reach with thoughtful feedback or willing to help.

- ethbr0 5y agoThere have been several great pieces (on HN and elsewhere) about the key multiplier to doing remote work effectively has been moving from synchronous communication / processes to asynchronous ones. And it's pretty simple. Why have a fixed time standup when people are all over time zones and work hours? But! All the info from a standup still needs to be regularly captured and disseminated. It just needs to be done async instead of sync.
- maomorales 5y agoIndeed, good asynchronous practices are a key multiplier, and I believe remote teams should invest on establishing these early on. In our case, moving our standups to async was a game changer. DailyBot manages this smoothly, it takes in account each person's timezone, it sends reminders and posts reports automatically in chat channels. And the best part is the web dashboard, you can see organized reports, see analytics like who's the person that is most blocked this week (so the team can help out), see the trend of engagement, and additional info like team morale. With DailyBot, you can download that data in XLS,CSV,PDF, and you can search across reports very easily, on the web, or using the bot. This is is just one of the use cases that users are achieving with our product :)
