Today's fast-paced world has yielded a myriad of communication channels that are continuously multiplying by the minute. And as the need for bulletproof interconnectivity rises, organizations from a multitude of industries adapt tool after tool, hoping to meet their company's needs to collaborate easily and effortlessly. 

But what most leaders failed to anticipate is the avalanche of tools that create workplace chaos, further decreasing productivity, and halting the overall growth of a company due to app and context switching.

Entrepreneurs Dvir Ben Aroya and Erez Pilosof saw these pain points and immediately thought that the way forward in the era of modern communication is a unified platform for email, chat, calendar, calls, team collaboration, and tasks. This kickstarted the inception of Spike, an award-winning platform that turns business communication into simple conversations, so employees can work and collaborate seamlessly with clients and team members.

Empowering SMBs with a Full-Stack Communication and Productivity Suite

As an extension of the company's legacy, they recently announced the launch of Spike for Teams, an end-to-end email and team chat service that provides a seamlessly unified communication and collaboration experience for small-to-medium sized businesses. From agencies, law firms, IT firms, and development agencies, to anyone who needs to collaborate efficiently, users can now enjoy a full-stack email, team chat, meeting, and productivity suite designed to be the weapon against communication chaos.

New studies show that fragmented communication platforms can have adverse effects on productivity, resulting in confusion and the formation of communication silos. This "chaos" can lead to significant financial losses for businesses, with an average cost of $12,506 per employee each year. Moreover, employees spend approximately 5 hours per week searching for information across different applications. Despite the availability of numerous communication services, email remains the prevailing, albeit criticized, method of business communication. This is the wide open gap that Spike for Teams bridges.

"Spike has been recognized as the world's leading conversational email app on the market with more than 1 million active users globally," Dvir states. "Now, we're taking our vision of modern and unified communication and collaboration to the next level by launching an integrated email and messaging service for businesses. Spike for Teams enables support teams to deliver rapid, precise responses using customizable message templates. It allows agencies to deliver top-tier service to their clients through various channels-email, chat, voice, and video.

Effortless Communication Equals Enhanced Team Work

Spike for Teams revolutionizes the existing and chaotic SMB communication structures across multiple industries by merging conversational email, messaging, video conferencing, AI-powered services, project management, and collaborative document handling within a unified, cohesive platform. What's more, this innovative approach simplifies billing with a single invoice, drastically reducing costs while providing users with a seamless and streamlined experience.

In addition, Spike now offers users the freedom to use their own email domain or conveniently acquire a personalized domain directly from Spike. This ensures that email and messaging functions remain secure, reliable, and easily archived. Teams can effortlessly oversee their entire communication process through web-based clients, mobile apps, and desktop applications, facilitating straightforward and efficient collaboration.

Through Spike for Teams, users enjoy the flexibility to effortlessly switch between various communication methods. For instance, they can initiate a video meeting directly from an email or swiftly elevate a chat message into an audio call. This seamless integration allows for enhanced teamwork, increased efficiency, and an accelerated pace of business operations.

Spike offers its services across various platforms including iOS, Android, Mac, PC, and web browsers. It provides both free and paid plans to cater to different user needs. Notably, Spike has gained recognition as Apple's App of the Day, showcasing its prominence in the app market.
