## Reviews

### "Helpful for Team Comms in Shared Workspaces" — 5.0/5

> **Nava** | *15 September 2025* | Commercial Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Hub is useful for storing documents, policies, links so everyone can access what they need. The Chat feature is handy for quick messages with people in your workspace (or remote coworkers).
> 
> **Cons**: Sharing or viewing documents isn’t super strong. The Hub doesn’t always let you create proper pages or organize docs as well as one might want

-----

### "Great software works great" — 5.0/5

> **Mitchell** | *20 October 2024* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Everything about it working great and easy to use
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing at all works great and does great
> 
> My experience could not be any better great software

-----

### "Great Social App for Work" — 5.0/5

> **Linze** | *20 November 2024* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy navigation with user-friendly interface.
> 
> **Cons**: There could be a test window where we can see what customisations will look like with the UI on top. Instead it just shows the background image and logo as a preview.

-----

### "Blink for business" — 4.0/5

> **Elizabeth** | *18 November 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that it is affordable for a small businesses. I Also love that it provides a central location for company chats, and updates.
> 
> **Cons**: It has very limited feature depth, and it is not very strong on productivity integrations, like collaboration tools
> 
> Overall, I love this. It is simple to use. Employees can view updates and news remotely and while at work, reducing the likelihood of them missing something important.

### "Great for keeping the workforce connected." — 4.0/5

> **Phong** | *26 January 2026* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We use Blink as our internal workplace social media app. It helps our workforce to engage and connect with each other - especially as we are a multi-site organisation where it can be difficult to meet our colleagues face-to-face.&#10;&#10;I enjoy how we can individually contribute posts and share content with colleagues. I also like the fact that colleagues can engage with whichever posts they choose and add their own comments and reactions.&#10;&#10;As an Admin user, I also enjoy the back-end of Blink to see how engaged the workforce are with the app and posts.
> 
> **Cons**: I think the 'Hub' section could be better laid out and more visually appealing, as it very much feels like an alternative File Explorer with its left-hand menu.
