Teamstatus — Are you and your team now working remotely?

Are you and your team now working remotely? You can’t just look across the room to see who’s at their desk—or who’s on the phone. And some of your officemates may be in different timezones across the country—or on the other side of the world!

What apps and services would be most useful for you to see what your team is up to?

I’ve heard that it’s not totally clear what the icons means so have updated the marketing site to provide more details.

What is the primary app you use that shows your availability status?

sounds great, but most teams use slack, Microsoft Lync (skype), Microsoft Team, etc and they provide a similar feature out of the box. i wonder, is there a mechanism to auromate the status updates using calender information, such as WFH, Presenting meeting, etc.

@rilwan_owolabi1, thanks, yes, everything is automated—pulling from the connected apps. So, for instance, at a glance, you can see who’s got their clock running or who’s in a meeting (or has one coming up). Use /status in Slack to say you’re popping out and it’ll show up here. Shows everyone’s timezones and who’s within business hours and who’s not, too.
