Slack Standup Bot #1

Standuply has completely replaced and improved on the system we had in place before. A daily check-in is crucial to our team (I’ve relied on them for managing different-sized teams). We value both a daily check-in, as well as a quick call. Standuply easily lets us integrate the two, as it does so much customization. We also love the friction-free design in Slack. It's really easy for everyone to reply quickly, and the automated reminders – and deadline! – keep us all responsible. We've recommended Standuply to several of our fellow startup and YC founders.

With so many members of our team working on different projects at different times, having an async standup on Slack was an obvious solution to keep everyone in sync. Standuply made it incredibly easy to set up our standup, and the reminder messages provide a gentle nudge to keep everyone accountable!

Since we've started using Standuply, we've had multiple other teams come to us and ask how they can set up Standuply for their own team.

My team uses Standuply to run our stand ups. We were finding in person standups not efficient. Either we got the right data at the wrong time or people would forget to share what was important. Standuply is used every day and seeds many important conversations we would forget to have otherwise.

We love the asynchronous nature of Standuply. One of the biggest complaints with daily "in-person" standup meetings is that it's difficult to find a time slot that is convenient for everyone. Even worse is being "in the zone" working on a really hard problem and then having to break that for a status meeting.

Standuply serves as a daily "mission control" to help assess if we're moving fast enough and if we are focused on the right things.

We're using Standuply to help our engineering team communicate and be more autonomous, allowing them to give a quick update in the morning, tag or raise issues and anyone they may need support from.

As a manager it's important for me to understand my team and provide them with tools that allow them to express themselves, as strong users of Slack, it just made a lot of sense for us to use Standuply to do that.

We tried having daily check-ins on Slack for a project that has several part-time, distributed people. Without Standuply, some folks would go days without an update, and at one point we missed a whole week of standups.

Now that we're using Standuply, we haven't missed a day.
