"Efficient Tool For Remote Teams"


What do you like about Geekbot?

One of the cool features about Geekbot is that as an organization with remote teams, its hard to track what each individual is working on or if they are blocked . Plus it is hard to have a team meeting due to them being in different time zones. However once I implemented geekbot , the process became much easier for everyone ,just by answering these 3 questions
1-What did you do today?
2-What will you do tomorrow?
3- Are you facing any blockers?

So it has definitely helped with streamlining the process and also is useful for attendance purposes, whether an individual has worked or not on that particular day

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

Nothing much cause it fits our organizational needs and has helped us in getting up to 80% efficiency in terms of delieverables.

What do you like about Geekbot?

Geekbot is a great tool to help the team to gather and share their work with others without having to pause their days for a meeting. This tool helps greatly with documentation and task tracking.

Could be easier to access from Slack, because I have to go to the Geekbot website to configure it.

"Geekbot can facilitate daily standup "


What do you like about Geekbot?

Can facilitate daily standup meetings by asking team members for their updates and tasks. This can help teams stay organized and informed about each other's progress.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

For new users, especially those not familiar with Slack, there can be a learning curve in understanding how to use Geekbot effectively and set up custom workflows.

What have you been using it for and what problems did Geekbot solve?

If you need advanced project planning features like Gantt charts, resource allocation, or complex task dependencies, Geekbot might not be the best tool for you because it's more focused on communication and daily updates.
It is important to keep in mind that user experience and perception of software can vary greatly depending on individual needs and expectations. What may be a limitation for one user or team may be perfectly acceptable for another, depending on their specific use case and priorities. It's always a good idea to carefully evaluate any software tool to make sure it fits your team's needs and workflow.

"Seamless, transparent communication"


What do you like about Geekbot?

Geekbot has significantly improved the way we manage our marketing tasks. We now have a structured approach to our standups - each person’s priorities are clear, and we can quickly identify and address any blockers. It’s also a great tool for fostering team spirit; the “Friday Kudos” feature allows us to recognize the outstanding work of our colleagues, making us feel valued and appreciated.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

When I don't respond before another Geekbot prompt arrived, I wasn't able to go back and answer the previous one. There may be a way around this, but I wasn't able to find it!

What have you been using it for and what problems did Geekbot solve?

Geekbot helps us to track overall welbeing and productivity of the company. And most importantly, when any problem occurs, we track and resolve it quickly.

"Easy to use and impactful"


What do you like about Geekbot?

Geekbot has helped my team become more communicative and collaborate as well. They have kept in better touch with me and GeekBot has saved me time by generating automatic check-in's for my clients.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

I would like to see a feature with the Slack integration that allows check-in responses to be delivered right back to the DM with my clients rather than another channel in Slack. This is a bit clunky for me and hard to keep track of responses in two different chat threads. It's hard for my clients too.

What have you been using it for and what problems did Geekbot solve?

Client check in's and accountability.

"Product Review"


What do you like about Geekbot?

Geekbot automates the process of collecting status updates from team members, which saves a lot of time and ensures that everyone is on the same page. Geekbot allows us to customize the questions asked in the status update and set the frequency at which updates are collected. This allows teams to tailor the tool to their specific needs.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

The cost of the software may be a bit high, especially for small or startup companies. While Geekbot does integrate with popular project management and communication tools like Slack and Trello, it does not integrate with other tools.

"Geekbot for daily stand ups"


What do you like about Geekbot?

We have recently adopted agile ways of working at Dr Martens. We are a global company and our product team works across four different time zones (UK, US, India, Bulgaria). We were finding the time difference challenging, and decided to trial Geekbot for our daily stand-ups. What we like about Geekbot is the ability to tailor the questions to our team, choose what time to automate the questions being sent out, and being able to link the responses to our Teams channel. Geekbot has turned out to be a valuable tool for us in being able to keep track of what all team members are working on throughout the day and where they have any questions or blockers. We intend on continuing with Geekbot once our trial period ends

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

Have to set timer to half hour before meetings start otherwise there is not enough time for the team to respond to the questions, but this is very minor

"Geekbot for the Win"


What do you like about Geekbot?

Our team of 4 enjoy using Geekbot for asynchronous sprint stand-ups and retrospects. The Geekbot dashboard makes it easy to customize the questions and schedules for both types of asynchronous meetings. Geekbot integrates with Slack making it easy to track and document meeting responses. It can be configured to send reminders to team members according to a customized schedule. Along with being able to set a customized schedule, it’s always an option to use a Geekbot slack command to do an impromptu record. All these features make communicating as a team, spread across several time zones, convenient.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

To date we have not found anything we would change about Geekbot. It has all the features we require as a team.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

It would be great if organizations could have multiple teams within the program, opposed to the entire organization functioning as a single team.

What have you been using it for and what problems did Geekbot solve?

"Get it! It's a no brainer!"


What do you like about Geekbot?

We have been using Geekbot for the past months and my team really likes it. Overall, this is a great stand-up product, and we are happy with it. I like that it's very easy to use, great UX with a web interface, integrates with Slack, and has detailed analytics and reporting. Our team uses it daily to improve their productivity and team collaboration. We use Geekbot every day for our daily team stands up as well as running our 360 anonymous performance reviews.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

Overall, I really like Geekbot because it saves us time, improves our productivity and is very convenient. However, there are a few things that could be improved:

- We can't nudge participants of anonymous surveys to complete the survey. This is a problem because our participant rate of anonymous surveys (e.g. 360 performance review survey) is currently very low. Please develop this feature so that we can keep in touch with the participants and nudge them with Geekbot if they do not complete the survey within the allotted time frame. This feature exists with Simple Poll.
- Geekbot could be expensive for big teams because they charge per user instead of a fixed charge per month, which could make it too costly for small businesses who have a lot of interns / seasonal staff / temp staff like ours. Similarly, Simple Poll has a fixed monthly cost.

I really appreciate all the work that the Geekbot team put into making the product so easy to use, please consider making the above improvements. The good news is that these are very easy fixes! I hope they will take them into consideration.

"Geekbot ftw!"


What do you like about Geekbot?

Geekbot is dead simple, and it lives where our team lives: in Slack. Set up your questions, your recipients, and your schedule, and you're off and running.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

Nothing to fault here. It's got the right mix of features and simplicity to cover the basics.

What have you been using it for and what problems did Geekbot solve?

Geekbot is a huge time and cost saver for us. Letting people write daily updates asynchronously via slack means everybody can post/read status updates as it suits their schedule. Avoiding those in person meetings saves dozens of hours a week and gives everyone larger blocks of uninterrupted time to get work done.

"Great app for standups...could use more templates though."


What do you like about Geekbot?

Geekbot gives us a snapshot of what the whole team is working on each day. This helps managers keep track of deliverables, reduces the formation of silos in the team as well as fostering an environment of support and learning as this enables team members to flag obstacles earlier and receive the help they need

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

Customisable templates - This is an area where Geekbot could improve - they just don't have as many templates as their competitors do. I would like to see more templates around process like employee onboarding, which Standuply offers.

"Super easy to use and quick to setup !"


What do you like about Geekbot?

So far our team is only using Geekbot to handle Standup, but it is amazing. There is not a single thing missing there. A most appreciated feature is that it handles timezones. Our company works with people from Europe, the US, South America and New Zealand without this, standup would be a mess.
Also love that people can pick and choose the best time for them to fill their standup, that's especially practical for contractors that have variable hours.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

It would be amazing if the whole setting up of standups could be done directly in slack, but honestly I don't see anything I don't like about Geekbot so far.
It's also a bit of a shame that the free version is only up to 10, we have a small budget as indie developers and would really appreciate that extra expense

What have you been using it for and what problems did Geekbot solve?

It took me 5 minutes to setup the standup and add all my little details and settings, it posts everyone's reports in our dedicated channel and people can check those out whenever in a clear and easy way. We ask "Do you need to talk to anyone ?" each day, and people tag whoever it is they have to talk to. Easy and super useful.
It solved the issue of people on different timezones forgetting to fill up their standup every morning

Geekbot is extremely easy to use. It is excellent to keep our remote team (across 5 timezones) in the loop. We cannot live without the daily standups now :)

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

I don't dislike anything. So far, only positive experiences. It was fast and simple to set up.

"Exponentially increases remote workplace connectivity "


What do you like about Geekbot?

Geekbot is great for checking in with my coworkers to create a sense of community as we typically experience in a traditional workplace. Specifically, we use the feature that prompts us all to check in about how we're doing each day so that we know where everyone stands mentally and emotionally. This feature is not only good for understanding ow our fellow coworkers are doing, but also for holding ourselves accountable by responding to these prompts every day.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

We've only used the trial version of Geekbot so far, so there is not much to dislike about the features that we are using.

What have you been using it for and what problems did Geekbot solve?

As previously mentioned, we have been using Geekbot mainly for daily Standup updates from each of our interns and coworkers to make sure that everyone is transparent and on the same page regarding wellbeing, projects, and obstacles.

What do you like about Geekbot?

Their personalization is really remarkable - you can make the stand-ups feel really personalized for your team. Tips are also a great feature. Slack messages feel really personal. Just overall outstanding.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

Timezone reminders are a little buggy right now, sometimes I don't get the pings in the mornings which is odd when my team members get it.

"The easiest setup ever. Smartest integration of Slack"


What do you like about Geekbot?

If it ain't broken, don't fix it. Geekbot understands that since they flawlessly integrate Slack for the collaborative part, while implementing a super easy interface for admin customization. Simple + efficient = brilliant.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

Pricing is pretty stiff. Since we use only one feature, segmented pricing (for small startups as ourselves) would be appreciated. Every dollar counts in times of pandemic, after all.

What have you been using it for and what problems did Geekbot solve?

It's pretty much the cornerstore of our office life since the pandemic/remote obligations we now have. Standups feel like a breeze now, with their simple Slack bot asking you every morning the question you need answers for, as a team.

What do you like about Geekbot?

I can get to know my teammates better when we work remotely. Geekbot facilitates icebreaker questions and encourages participation by directly DM-ing the relevant people, before sharing your answer to the publishing channel.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

There is no option to customize your plan, if only certain kinds of Standup templates are needed. ie. only Pizza Questions (icebreaker style)

"Improved Efficiency & Project Management for distributed teams"


What do you like about Geekbot?

We are a distributed team across 3 countries, and we are doing our daily standups and retrospectives using Geekbot. The best part about it is, it is quite easy to get started and once you set it up it just works! I really like the simplicity of the tool, which basically increases the adoption rate within the team dramatically.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

There were one or two times where the application didn't send our messages right at the time, but even though there were latencies the messages still got delivered and these were pretty small issues.

What have you been using it for and what problems did Geekbot solve?

We have been using it as a team to manage our online Scrum ceremonies, which allows us to gather our thoughts before our online meetings and keep everything documented. Geekbot is nice, and it allows us to move forward without dealing with pushing everyone to post their updates and collecting them in a structured manner, Geekbot handles all of these for us.

"Best slackbot for doing standup meetings"

// Engineering Manager at Sigma Computing

What do you like about Geekbot?

• Ability to edit private DMs and silent publishing to the channel
• Ease of configuration, templating, onboarding
• Love the engagement survey/reminder to nudge
• Pleasant/engaging customer support
• Quick reply status for repeating the same status from the previous day

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

• Doesn't always start on time
• Suffered from extensive delays a few times (20-30 minutes between questions)
• Unable to manage other standups (I purchased for several teams but I'm unable to see/configure their settings)
• Response times from customer support are a bit slow even via intercom (expect 1-2 business days, sometimes longer)
• Timeline performance (dashboard view) for summarization sometimes lags

What have you been using it for and what problems did Geekbot solve?

We used to have daily standups in person but some people are soft-spoken, so it became difficult to keep everyone engaged or respond to issues as they came up. Our velocity was slow and coordination began to degrade -- within a week of switching to geekbot everything improved drastically.

"Geekbot makes standups work for our 100% distributed team!"

// Engineering Manager, Monitoring at GitLab, Inc.

What do you like about Geekbot?

I like the UI to manage standup. I like the dead simple integration with Slack and all of the slack commands you can use to pause standup updates (like if you're on vacation), and to start new standup reports. I like that Geekbot does everything we need it to do without additional complexity.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

Occasionally I will notice that the standup prompt doesn't happen exactly when I've set it to. It is usually not much later (a couple of minutes), but it's the only complaint I can think of.

What have you been using it for and what problems did Geekbot solve?

I work for a 100% distributed remote company, and therefor the team I manage is spread all over the globe. Geekbot works really well for us. When I sign on in the morning, I can see all of the updates from my teammates in Asia and Europe and any conversations that resulted from their updates. It really helps the team maintain consistent communication and we always include a fun question ("What was something awesome you did outside of work yesterday?") Which helps us continue to get to know our teammates better. I also like that we have this standup in a "public" channel on our company slack, so anyone else in the company can see what's going on and chime in.

We started using Geekbot from Slack and it helped us a lot to organize ourselves, to see the work that each one does, to do things in a dynamic way. It is a very useful tool.

Our group needed a Daily Standup slack bot to make our Standups easier and we had tried two others before with bad luck. Standup Alice gave us so many problems so we switched to Geekbot and we could not be happier!! Geekbot has been excellent and I've recommended it to other teams at school who have equally loved it. I highly recommend it!!

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

I have nothing to complain about, we have not had one issue with Geekbot and I definitely recommend giving it a try.

What have you been using it for and what problems did Geekbot solve?

Our team has been using it to automate our daily standups.

"The best asynchronus daily bot I've used so far"

// Freelance Product Designer at Autonomo

What do you like about Geekbot?

I like how easy it is to setup your daily and reminders.
It is also very useful the repository of all publications and how you can navigate on it. The price is also good for me, since it is cheaper than other similar platforms.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

What I dislike could be applied to other competitors. I think asynchronus bots should leave you more freedom, provide you the "What I am I going to do today" of the previous day as "What did you do yesterday" of the current day and other improvements like that.

What have you been using it for and what problems did Geekbot solve?

Run asynchronus daily meetings with remote teams.

"Great app to enhance communication among the team"

// CEO/Founder at APOIA.se

What do you like about Geekbot?

Geekbot it's a powerful tool to remind the whole team individuals they need to communicate their progresses. I know, it's kind of obvious everyone should remember to communicate and give accountability of their work, however as the team grows is difficult for managers to keep everyone on that page and that's where geekbot adds value automatizing any kind of reporting activity that is relevant. Super recommend!!!!

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

The price is quiet expensive for startups based in countries like ours, where currency is devaluated.

What have you been using it for and what problems did Geekbot solve?

It reduced the problem of a lack of transparency/accountability of the team members, and added a consistent way for them to report asynchronously....

"Love Geekbot!"

// Co-Founer and CPO at Slinger (Slinger Media LLC)

What do you like about Geekbot?

Geekbot has made it easier for our remote team to stay connected to eachother.

Using Geekbot is so simple and straightforward and feels like it fits in naturally into our remote working lifestyle.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

The price of $3 per user seems a bit high as we grow more. I would be much happier paying for tiered pricing that allows up to x users.

What have you been using it for and what problems did Geekbot solve?

We're a small team spread across North America. It's been a challenge for us to feel like we're working together at times since each of us is working on a different part of the project. Geekbot has made the team feel more tight-knit.

"The Perfect Bot For Daily Standups "

// Co-Founder at Bonfire IT

What do you like about Geekbot?

Working at a busy creative development agency can be chaotic, and running one can be even crazier. Managing multiple global clients and teams in various locations can be a cumbersome process especially when it comes to organising daily stand ups on various time zones. That is where Geekbot has come in to save the day, by allowing us to alert the team members at 09:00 to update Geekbot with their notes for the project, this then collates and sends a detailed summary to the PM and the key account stake holders.

What do you dislike about Geekbot?

I would suggest maybe adding a feature for the PM or team to interject when another team member raises a blocking point or issue so it pauses sending further updates to an action has been agreed.

What have you been using it for and what problems did Geekbot solve?

We have primarily used Geekbot to manage mobile application development projects.

"Great for remote teams"

// Mentor (UX and User Onboarding) at 500 Startups

We're a distributed team and want to break down the culture of facetime and nine-to-five work. Geekbot helps us run our daily asynchronous standups, which allow our team to work on their own schedule. We also do weekly updates with Geekbot so our meetings are about discussing and questioning items, not simply providing updates. This makes us a much more efficient and effective team and we couldn't do it without Geekbot!
