Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I was pretty impressed with all that Lark has to offer. It has a great interface that's easily navigable. The chat interface is pretty cool , with features to reply to chosen messages, and also allows you to 'tick off' conversations that are over. It also has a built-in document sharer to share all sorts of files with your group, complete with comments and private drives. The video calling facility works great even on slow networks. Custom emoji reactions to chats are another feature I love.
  • Lark available on cross-platform. It gives you the best group communication experience. You can do chat, video conferencing, share docs and drive access. From a single platform.

Cons

  • I haven't had any major cons for Lark. But the chat interface on video conferences is pretty small, which makes it difficult to navigate through the messages.
  • I'm pretty impressed with Lark app platform. No cons.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Open Source and Customizable This is a huge plus. Organizations can tailor the platform to fit their exact needs — from branding to functionality — which is rare in most enterprise tools. Support for Company Culture It’s not just about productivity. eXo allows businesses to showcase their mission, values, CSR efforts, and DEI initiatives. That makes it a platform that nurtures culture as much as work.
  • Wikis, forums, documents, search, and tagging work together to create a living knowledge base. It supports not just file storage but actual information flow and reuse across teams.
  • eXo Platform offers a comprehensive suite of collaboration features, including: Activity Streams & Notifications: Keep teams informed and engaged with real-time updates. Instant Messaging & Video Conferencing: Built-in chat and video tools facilitate seamless communication. Document Management: Secure file storage with version control, access permissions, and integration with third-party storage solutions (Google Drive, SharePoint, etc.).
  • My experience with eXo Platform has been overwhelmingly positive. The corporate intranet functions as a dynamic hub for information sharing, equipped with efficient knowledge management tools for seamless organization and access to essential data. Additionally, the platform's internal communication features significantly enhance teamwork, making it an excellent choice for businesses aiming to optimize intranet functionality, knowledge sharing, and communication systems.
  • Knowledge sharing has never been easier since we started using eXo Platform. Its content repository, wikis, and knowledge-sharing features have empowered our employees to learn and contribute effectively. It’s a must-have for any organization focusing on building a knowledge-driven culture.

Cons

  • User Interface While functional, some users find the UI a bit dated compared to newer platforms. However, it’s customizable — so with the right setup, it can look and feel modern. Learning Curve Because it offers so many features, onboarding can take time without proper guidance or training. But once you're in, it becomes second nature.
  • Onboarding & Learning Curve Issue: Because it’s packed with features, new users—especially in non-tech teams—may feel overwhelmed at first. Improvement Suggestion: Improved onboarding flows, tooltips, and role-based tutorials could help users find value faster.
  • Haven't seen any con since started to use eXo Platform
  • I have encountered no drawbacks with eXo Platform.
  • eXo Platform has been our go-to solution for managing distributed teams. With integrated video calls, task management, and real-time collaboration features, our global workforce stays aligned and engaged. It's an all-in-one tool that simplifies remote work challenges.
