Get your focus back with Hive Notifications
“Did you see the message I sent you earlier?” — Andy
“Uh… sorry I missed that one” — Dave
“Oh ok, I wanted to know if Sarah finished that report. The client is asking for it.” — Andy
“Not sure. I’ll follow up with her now” — Dave
No one wants to be like Dave.
Missing out on important communication delays progress for the whole team.
But when did it become normal to expect someone to monitor always-on chat while simultaneously completing a full day of productive work?
It’s even worse when you open up your team’s communication tool after an extended absence. Too many messages to read and no way of finding out what is relevant to you.
Enter Hive notifications, a personalised list of things you need to know about, that waits patiently until you’re ready.
Whenever you have an unread notification, a red dot will appear over the notifications bell in the upper right corner. Simply click the bell, and out pops a list of all the latest updates. Review them, mark them as read, and you’re up to speed!
What makes Hive notifications especially useful is that they only contain updates relevant to you. Unlike other tools, you won’t see a new notification every time a colleague sends a message, which can easily become overwhelming.
If Dave used Hive, he would have known exactly when Sarah completed the report, because he would have been notified as soon as she clicked complete. With notifications, important updates are just one click away.
