Linchpin Hey Is More Than a Social Intranet: From Congratulations and Hey Fives to Confetti

Employees of companies want to be part of a community, but the current trend (and necessity) of working from home can make building social connections quite difficult.

This was also the case for the dfv Mediengruppe based in Frankfurt.

Future of Linchpin

In early 2020 we began working on Linchpin Cloud, a solution that will integrate with Atlassian cloud. Linchpin Cloud will also be compatible with other software that a company may have in place – like Google Workspace, for example. This investment in this new product line is expensive but very important. Confluence’s customer satisfaction with Linchpin is high, so investing in this solution will give customers the option to continue using Linchpin not just today but tomorrow as well.
