What internal communication workflow/tools are you using?

[sfolts793045]

Whether it's to a remote employee during COVID or just a user on a different floor, I'm curious to hear the pros and cons of the many different internal communication schemes.
There are so many different apps/solutions, I'd like to know if 1 or a few have risen to the top within AEC?

Not only wanting to address peer to peer chat & video conference, but also sharing files, links, "tips and tricks" archive etc...

MS Teams?
Google Hangout?
Contact Monkey?
Blogin?
Slack?

Most of our knowledge sharing (files, links, tips and tricks) are on SharePoint, many are connected to it through Teams. We use OneDrive for personal file stores and sharing, but still use Box for a lot of things due to integrations we've built into it to support specific business functions.

Some social networking through Yammer, and serious technical troubleshooting through Slack.

Video calls are typically through Teams, though we use WebEx and Zoom for special cases.

Internal to the firm, across our three locations, it's primarily MS Teams. There is some sharepoint stuff happening behind the scenes in teams, but we don't leverage that a lot.

Curiously, and I am not sure why, when we went all remote due to Covid, internal email mostly died, and IM through teams took off.

We used to be a Skype office - so the transition to Teams was fairly easy.
