Cliq Channels - Organize all your projects & tasks by creating Channels

Scenario 1: Ryan has been assigned a project alongside 5 others. The 6 of them have to meet up often regarding this, and it's getting quite difficult to keep up with those meets at the right time, owing to all their busy schedule.

 

Scenario 2: Tim loves vintage cars and they are his passion. He finds a colleague who also shares the same interest. Now both want to find others who share the same passion as well, so that they can have a club for this.

 

These are situations one often finds in the workplace. Though they differ in terms as work and hobby, both needs to be carried out in an effective way for it to be successful. This is where Cliq Channels come in. Channels in Cliq can be used for anything and everything, from work to fun.

 

Now let's see how Channels can be effective in above mentioned situations. 

  1. Ryan can create a Private Channel (#Project 1) and add others who are part of the project. Now all of them can collaborate, share files, assign tasks, follow it up and carry out the project without worrying anymore about rushing to meet up. 
  2. Tim can create an Organization Channel (#Vintage Cars). Soon interested people will join the channel and share their passion together. 

Thus Cliq Channels, can be used for everything - the perfect medium for collaboration and sharing.

Aren't you excited now, to create your own Channel? Go ahead and follow the steps below to create one!

  1. Click on the (+) of Channels in LHS.
  2. Then click on Create Channel.
  3. Give a name, select level, add initial members and enter description
    Hint: If you select level as Team, then you should enter your Group name. To know more about channel levels, click here.





   

Note: There is an Organization Policy to 'create Org Channel without approval'. If your Admin has disabled it, then your org channels will have to wait until your admin approves them.

 

All said and done, now it's time to get into action. Well, you know what to do now!! 



Until next time
