What do you like best about Pingboard?

I like how easy it is to use the website and update information. Past websites I have used before have been lagging and sometimes hard to manage. With Pingboard, I have had no troubles updating my contact or work information or even my profile photo. Very happy with Pingboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pingboard?

I can't honestly say anything that I dislike about the website. From what I've used so far, its very easy to use and easy to catch on. Almost all of the features are self explanatory. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Pingboard:

Highly recommend Pingboard, its very user friendly and very easy to update information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Being a coach for a huge club, sometimes it is very hard to get in contact with other coaches from different parts of the club. With Pingboard, I was able to find and use the employee or staff directory to find coaches or staff members that I need to contact and send them an email or call or text them.

What do you like best about Pingboard?

Quick and Ease of use is by far the most important. It's basically the Google equivalent of contacts, which this company has tried a variety of options to try to facilitate but Pingboard is far better than the others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pingboard?

Even though it's quick, it could be quicker. The other thing I could thing of is adding some kind of "did you mean such and such". Also it's hard to determine who is in what group, so a better grouping system would be appreciated. One last feature would be to request that a user update their information. Say John has a bad phone number, you can just simply press a request update right on his page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Pingboard:

It's a wonderful tool, there doesn't seem to be anything better for what we use it for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Contacts, it has been a huge problem for this company, but with pingboard we have been able to drastically reduce the time in getting contact details. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pingboard?

I am able to identify employees and their positions/ role in real time. This is especially useful after having had a meeting or conversation with someone who I don't usually interact with but it gives me a better understanding of what role they play in the company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pingboard?

What I dislike about ping board is that the live organizational chart only automatically shows the heads of each department and I have to individually click through each one to identify where each employee is working and under what mentor or supervisor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Pingboard:

if ou are someone that is considering using pingboard I would say go fot it! This tool is specially useful when your organization has over 500+ employees because it allows you to be on the loop of different teams and role changes. you will also be able to create stronger relationships Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I am solving many problems on ping board, especially as it pertains to teams recognition. For example, if I recieve a calendar invite from an unkwown name, I can easily go to ping board and look up their name in order to have a better understanding of who they are and what team they are on.

What do you like best about Pingboard?

Pingboard is an easy way to glance at the company as a whole and see where we are at in terms of headcount, out of office status and navigate departmental org charts. People can get up to speed quickly and figure out who they need to talk to or if others are out of office. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pingboard?

It would be awesome to have more integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

People are used to having to ask around to figure out where people are or who they need to talk to and this can usually solve those issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pingboard?

I recently joined a company that use Pingboard, a product I hadn't heard of before. I found it immediately intuitive, and was able to navigate the company org chart with ease. This was a massive time saver and made my onboarding that much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pingboard?

The "secondary" features such as the out of office functionality are a little lacking, and feel like second class citizens. Typically Pingboard is the last place I fill out my availability as I've normally already filled in existing tools such as Google calendar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Pingboard is used as our Org Chart and company directory. Everyone is on Pingboard and I can quickly view the Org Chart to find someone in a particular department, location, role etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pingboard?

Pingboard is a great tool to help new employees out names to faces around the office. It also helps see where your team is at all times, whether working remotely or traveling. It's also a great way to celebrate birthdays and work anniversaries Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pingboard?

At this point, there isn't much I dislike about the platform. It is a bit bare bones when it comes to set up instructions for a new user, but it's pretty self explanatory from there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Pingboard:

It's great as a simple staffing platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It's easy to see where everyone is, whether in the office or working remote. Helps to identify departments as well and to get to know new coworkers. Also, my company as two other offices that we collaborate with, rarely meeting in person. It helps to foster a team mentality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pingboard?

Very easy to see team structure, employees by location and contact information for coworkers. Having status updates in one place is helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pingboard?

I have yet to see anything to dislike. Pingboard's a simple tool that delivers on its purpose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We're able to see and interact with an updated org chart with all employees across the company, and filter by team or location. Employee profiles make it easy to connect a name with a photo, pull contact information quickly, see how long someone's been at the company and more. It's also a way to see which team members are out of the office, on vacation, on a business trip or working remotely. It's also helpful for new employees to get to know their coworkers, or to help coworkers in different offices connect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Integration with Google Calendar after updating work status (Remote, Business Trip, PTO, etc) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Don't have approval option for managers. Not as easy for managers to see when their team will be out since it only lists dates. No calendar view. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Easy way for new hires to see org chart. In addition, convenient way for employees to post their work status either view the website or through their convenient mobile app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
