The "virtual office" is perfect to know when your team is online and is the best for working together, as you only "knock" on the door of your team mate, and enter to their place, and you can start sharing screen, talking and/or chatting. > > **Cons**: It has lots of bugs from time to time, normally they are not critical, but some times they affect the "useful" features like speaking/hearing, connection, etc. > > As I work on a remote position, this is the software we use for communication on the company, so this allow us to keep control on everyone, so we can work together or if we need to have a meeting, this is where we do it. ----- ### "Sococo – great value when necessary" — 5.0/5 > **Cam** | *5 May 2022* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The features that proved integral were the conference features. Getting everyone together in one room served for accountability as well as structure. It also gave a professional appearance to outside clients and potential hires at the time. > > **Cons**: The cost – it was too expensive for our current structure when there were other software capabilities that offered similar albeit not as expansive features > > Sococo was great – the availability to be IN the office without being IN an office was key. The features were there but the accountability and staffing structure outweighed any other reason to keep it. Improvements could be made with Google and other CRM clients to integrate a bit better but the price point was too high to continue. ----- ### "Pricing plan change shutdown our company's collaboration." — 3.0/5 > **Jonathan** | *31 January 2020* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: The virtual office layout is useful to see who is meeting with whom. This is much better than just seeing that someone is online, like Hangouts, or online and on a call, like slack. The ability to see which people are meeting is very effective. Additionally, it's easy to hop into and out of a meeting. > > **Cons**: Programatically: We've been with Sococo for years and they keep changing the pricing. Now there is a limit to the number of voice minutes. When we ran out of minutes we were shut down and when I had my manager try to buy more minutes, they're help desk was so backed up we couldn't buy additional minutes. Bottomline: It's hard to rely on Sococo. Technically: Their tech has changed over the years. For a couple years things were getting only worse. When the application went browser based it had lots of bugs. Things are better now, but the screen sharing is still not great. ----- ### "Good enough" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *5 February 2019* | Computer Games | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: -Perfect for small remote business -Has a decent voice chat -Can integrate flawlessly with slack -Customization of the workspace with different layouts depending on business size -Invite links for meetings with external people are handy -you can close your virtual ofice door if you need to concentrate and not being disturbed -There is a somewhat nice user customization by color and nicknames. -Dev team keeps patching and improving stuff > > **Cons**: -There is no "personal space" customization -Screensharing has a lot of lag -Voice chat and media sharing usually has issues -There are always weird bugs, like people showing in several rooms at the same time or going through walls -Lag in voice calls can happen often. ----- ### "A great virtual office" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *16 January 2019* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: It creates a natural feeling of being in a real office, its easy to manage and you can always know who is available to talk to. It handles well screen and camera sharing, and you can also have a lot of people in the same room in a conference of sort, or have private meetings. > > **Cons**: Sometimes its a little unresponsive when you need to unmute or more than one person is sharing the screen. And sometimes it doesnt detect very well the audio and you need to refresh the media to start listening, it happens specially if you have a fluctuating internet bandwith. > > In overall is a good software and is continously improving, its very rare that the system fails completely and sometimes there are big maintenance times but you are always notified ahead of time. A little bit expensive, but it is worth to have if you can afford it and have a lot of people working together from all around the globe. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/77481/sococo?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/77481/sococo) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
