SpiderOak Semaphor Description
Working on team-based projects, especially if you do it remotely, requires an efficient way to chat with other members without distractions from the outside world.
SpiderOak Semaphor is designed from the ground up to offer you just that: a direct way to chat with and send files to your team members.
Install, log in and start chatting while being sure that your privacy is protected
As a bonus, with the help of end-to-end encryption technologies bundled within and a secure recovery key (generated when you first sing-up), it also makes sure that your privacy stays untouched.
The app is easy to install and you can start using it right away by logging in with your official credentials. Workflow-wise, the obvious first step is to create one or multiple teams and project-specific channels.
Intuitive user interface
Its interface is intuitive and functional, with a section dedicated to finding and managing the teams, the channels and the messages on the left side of the main window and the rest of the chat tools on the other side.
Once you get passed the first stages, you are bound to discover that the app has a retractable side menu, on the right part of the main window, which offers you quick access to device, recovery key and billing settings.
Add mobile devices in mere seconds
The transitions between menus are smooth as silk and everything is designed to be as novice-accessible as possible. The perfect example for this is just how easy SpiderOak Semaphor makes it for you to add new devices, be they tablets or smartphones.
Evidently, you will firstly need to make sure that Semaphor is installed on your iOS device (with plans for Android implementation also). Once that is dealt with, simply scan the pattern from the screen and enter the designated recovery key and there you have it.
A robust cross-platform, real-time collaboration tool
Sure, while sleek, intuitive and modern, it is still not in the front row of collaboration apps since it does not pack video call capabilities and nor does it come with integration with other popular web services out there.
All in all, we can conclude by saying that SpiderOak is a reliable collaboration tool that offers a basic set of chat features and an overall good level of privacy protection.
