General advice for using collaboration tools

1. Use each tool for its defined purpose

Each tool being used in OuiShare has been introduced with a specific purpose in mind. To avoid being overwhelmed by many different tools, a new one is only added if it has a clear purpose that can be differentiated from the already existing tools.

2. 'Ping' relevant people

Across all tools we are using, you can use the 'ping' to get the attention of individuals that you would like to see your message. You can do that by adding an @ before the user name of the person, which will send them a notification.

Example: @fran will send a notification to Francesca Pick.

3. Manage your notifications!

Look for the settings in each tool where you can mute notifications. Otherwise you will go crazy with too many push notifications.
