CA Flowdock is an open platform online service software that allows for team members to collaboratively work on projects. The open platform allows for teams of people to work within the system through “threading.” This is similar to Facebook feeds or group text messaging, however it enables users to do so much more than simply talk, text, and chat. Team members can video chat as a group or instantly with other team members in the open office space online. This service is provided by CA Technologies that has already set themselves apart in the online workflow software tech space.

Cons of Flowdock

Telegram which is a similar collaborative open platform, online collaborative workspace offers better customer support. This is specifically referenced by many online reviews that state this particular advantage of Telegram.
Advanced search features are limited to alternatives such as Slack. For example, it can be difficult sometimes to keep up to speed with conversations when there is a lot of traffic within the group space.
While the integration capabilities are above the leading programs in this tech field, other platforms such as Slack offer more API tool integrations.

Flowdock Reviews

Many software programs that offer similar services do not have the capabilities that Flowdock possesses. The ability to integrate leading industry standard API team tools into the open platform is becoming an industry standard. The integration of team tools within CA Flowdock seems to be easier than similar platforms. Also, CA Flowdock allows for confidential messaging which is very simple to ‘click and chat.’ So, you can be working within nested conversations and be collaborating with specific individuals and the whole group simultaneously.
