Tandem Chat and Collaboration

We’ve been using Tandem Chat for the last couple months now and it’s been super helpful for passive collaboration with remote developers. Loitering in the same call and asking questions here and there has been nice, screensharing is nice and fast, and shared cursors work great.

However, the real power is the Kiosk system which allowed us to provision TVs on carts for ~$600 each that remote users can dial into. It’s made standups more effective and allowed users to dial into all hands and engineering areas easily.

Thanks for reading! Facts and circumstances may have changed since the publication of this post so it's worth checking for new posts to see if anything's changed before jumping to conclusions.
