Zoho Cliq vs Valence

"Zoho Cliq is not only as a chat application, but also as an information lifeline for the company. We can easily collaborate on multiple projects, attend meetings and screen-sharing sessions, and instantly exchange documents to bring out the best campaigns for our clients. We use Zoho Cliq for communication. It helps us feel that we are working together (physically) even when we are not."

- Xavier Tan Co-Founder, Heroes of Digital

"When we call our international team through Cliq, the audio calls and the video feature are just as good and often even better than the apps outside of Zoho. When the pandemic hit Australia, the Sydney-based team went remote. We initiated daily scrum sessions with our Australian team so we could keep tabs on what everyone was doing, and if we needed to help each other. Zoho Cliq was a good tool in regards to keeping communication channels open. We found our team was very productive even when working from home."

- Amy Gray Corporate and Governance Manager, Alpha Vet Tech

"We're constantly communicating back and forth via Cliq, and Cliq being integrated into Projects—that's brilliant. And of course, Desk is integrated with Projects, and everything's just singing."

- Stuart George Founder and Creative Director, CKP Creative

Most of us live in capitalist-driven societies where money and results are the only viable outcomes. Thus discriminating is not a viable strategy. Rejecting a great talent because he is black is stupid in a capitalist driver society but it should be allowed nonetheless. In this case, a competitor is going to hire him or her and make a profit. I can't recommend this type of product who are gravitating toward racism and racial segregation. I can't recommend this type of product because they are defying science. Do you want to support racial neutrality? We have a solution! In fact, we have known this solution for thousand of years. It's called double-blind testing. Developing a platform to ease the process of double-blind interviews would be a good step towards selecting great talents without any racial biases. When I review a product, I always wonder: "Could I explain this to my 5 years old kid?" In this case, I can't. I have been thinking about it for a few minutes, I can't teach my kid about acceptance, efforts and being neutral regarding races while trying to explain the existence of a marketplace exclusively for black people. I was not able to come up with a good reason. This promotes racial segregation.

Companies in all industries, including those in the innovation economy, are actively working to address the underrepresentation of Black executives in their boardroom in the C-Suite. We’re excited to partner with Valence to launch BONDS and provide the program’s executive coaching and contribute to the development and progress of our employees and clients.
