I can use the calendar to launch calls and Lark adjusts the time-zones automatically which which makes it easier when dealing with global clients. The interface is simple which is just the way I like things. The main screen combines group chats, calendar assistant, and private messages so there is no need to do a lot of toggling or have a bunch of different tabs open. Internal vs. External teams is also a neat feature I haven't seen with other software. > > **Cons**: As with any new software, it takes some time to get familiar to everything but after a while it becomes intuitive. ----- ### "Effective communication app" — 5.0/5 > **Romina** | *2 April 2025* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is a very complete application of communication for a company. > > **Cons**: It could make unnecessary spam with a lots of chats. > > It is a great and effective way to communicate in a company space. ----- ### "Can't even access and not clear" — 1.0/5 > **Pablo** | *17 October 2023* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: nothing, I signed up on the website using google sign up, then I had to download the app, then I tried to sign in using google and it asked me for the password, why would you use google sign in if you ask for a password. > > **Cons**: you can't access the app, and you can-t contact support, only an AI bot. To "contact us" you have to go to the app, but you can't access the app. > > too bad, no customer support, they make you download a huge app, and then the sign in works really bad, there is no back button, if you try to sign in using google you just stay there trying to remember your password. ----- ### "THUMBS UP\!" — 5.0/5 > **KRISTINE JOY** | *16 April 2024* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: it is easy to use and very effective for team conversation and privacy. > > **Cons**: none so far since it is very useful for me so far . no issues encounter. > > I use it everyday for team conference, updates , and even calendar management.You can also view documents using lark. ----- ### "LarkSuite is what we need to run our small business." — 4.0/5 > **Thor** | *29 September 2022* | Sporting Goods | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: We ended up with LarkSuite after having tried a number of alternatives. For a small business like us Lark keeps us running. We use Lark to keep documents up to date in the cloud. We had no issues deploying Lark and implement the suite across regions where we have personnel with access to data files. > > **Cons**: Not much to complain about, a larger operation may have issues, but nothing negative on our side. > > It does the job for us, we will keep using it no plans to replace it. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/147634/lark?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/147634/lark) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
