What do you like best about Geekbot?

I've used and led the adoption of Geekbot in three different organizations over the years — and I can confidently say it's a game-changer.

As a team leader, manager, and now director of engineering, Geekbot has been nothing short of a lifesaver. There's simply no other tool that offers this level of clarity into what the team is working on. If you're anything like me — someone who loses sleep over misaligned priorities and teams pulling in different directions — Geekbot brings much-needed peace of mind.

Having spent most of my career in lean teams where speed, output, and cohesion are critical, Geekbot has consistently helped us ship faster, identify bottlenecks early, and keep everyone aligned — whether they're tackling month-long epics or one-day quick wins.

It stands out not just for its impact, but also for its simplicity. It’s incredibly easy to set up, use, and — most importantly — ensures your team never forgets to update. It becomes part of your rhythm without being a burden.

Highly recommended for any engineering leader serious about team alignment and delivery. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing in particular ,it really fits with our organizational needs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Geekbot solving and how is that benefiting you?

So as a startup we have remote teams and it was pretty hard to keep track of what the individuals were doing . By implementing Geekbot we were able to keep track of all of our employees by asking them 3 simple questions at 7pm their time.

1-What did you do today?

2-What do you plan on doing tomorrow?

3-Do you face any blocker? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Geekbot?

It's very easy to set up, and the templates are helpful to avoid having to start from scratch. I like that workflow members can personalize their receipt time to be more amenable and that multiple persons can manage the workflow. It was much easier than other Slack Apps I've worked with to enable other teams at the company to use the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

It's not very customizable. I know there is a balance to strike between ease of use and customizability, but I feel that it leans too much on the ease of use side. For example, I'd prefer to use the Connect template as a question broadcast to a Slack channel that channel members can respond to in the thread rather than as a DM. I'd also like to see one-time workflows that don't require routine scheduling, such as specific project retrospectives. It's a hassle to have to turn them off after completion. It would also be nice to organize workflows within teams so that all of the workflows for one team are contained within a folder to reduce noise when many teams use Geekbot and multiple team members create/manage different workflows. For multiple-choice questions, ranked-choice voting would be great! Finally, the ability to structure questions within flows would increase flexibility (i.e., answers to a question determine what other questions the person sees). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Geekbot solving and how is that benefiting you?

I don't like in-person daily stand-ups. I think they are a distraction and have administrative overhead in recording updates for tracking purposes. Geetbot allows team members to respond when available, provide greater detail than they would in an in-person response, and keep track of history. I would love to see Geekbot expand to cover more functionality for facilitating collaboration and relationship-building on remote teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Geekbot?

Geekbot makes it super easy to get quick updates from our team and get a high-level view of what's going on in the company. We use it for Monday and Friday check-ins with our team, as well as a more well rounded monthly 1:1 report that gets sent to managers. There are also tons of features we aren't using, but Geekbot has become a core part of our project management across the team, where everyone relies on it to get the information they need for the week. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

This has gotten better since we've started using Geekbot, but the interface is a bit clunky, which makes updating the surveys or adding/removing participants less than intuitive. We've also had a couple issues with surveys not being sent out on time despite the schedule being set up correctly. Minimal issues though overall! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
