Useful for customers with non-desk workers

Staffbase complements collaboration solutions such as Slack and Microsoft Teams with a tool for synchronous interaction with all employees in large companies. For many of our customers, being a mobile-first portal makes us the ideal entry point to business applications such as Office 365, SAP, or Salesforce.”
