About Lark
Lark is a collaboration software that helps businesses establish communication through instant messaging and audio or video calling. It lets users create chat threads and view interaction history to streamline communication and provide context on specific topics.
Lark enables employees to configure message priority and track message delivery status from a centralized platform. It provides a chat bot, which allows users to automatically receive reminders and post messages at pre-defined date and time. The built-in team calendar lets staff members schedule meetings, book rooms, and create group chats to share documents and meeting agendas. Users can send emoji reactions and pin important chats, ensuring quick response and access to specific details.
Lark provides an API, which allows businesses to integrate the system with several third-party solutions. It lets team members utilize the screen-share technology to share conference materials, presentations, and external applications during audio or video calls. The cloud-storage module enables users to upload, download, and preview documents in multiple file formats.

Great for current times
Reviewed on 2020/07/15
Pros
Video calls were easy to use and you can have a lot of people in one call. 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.

4. It is compatible both on mobile and on laptop ( without downloading any additional software)
Cons
- the internet bandwidth needs to be good while using this app ( it would have been great if the internet reliability is improved)

Lark is a very useful, easy-to-use software for collaborating with your team, conducting online video sessions, and sharing files and documents with your team in real-time. Scheduling and file sharing is easy. The calendars and notifications make sure you don't miss a meeting. I love the interface as well, and it is free!
Pros
Lark has everything I need in a collaboration platform. It has an excellent UI, easily understandable for beginners. Sharing documents and files among your team members and changing access settings are a breeze. Emojis and the ability to react to individual messages make group conversations a delightful experience. I also like that you can simply 'tick' a conversation that's over so your inbox doesn't seem crowded. The video conferencing works surprisingly well on low networks too. Most of all, it doesn't have a lot of hassle with signing up, and it is free!
Cons
My only slight problem was that while video conferencing, the chat interface is very small and difficult to navigate. Otherwise, I'm pretty much satisfied with everything else.

Lark gave my team more time to operate and made communication and collaboration that much easier for us. I tell all my startup friends about Lark because one app where we can do everything for communicating and collaborating with our team has been the difference in our successful push to close 2019.
Pros
Lark is a very easy platform to use both on mobile and desktop. That was the biggest issue where my team would use Excel sheets and I can't edit it that well on my Iphone. It was frustrating that I would have to wait till I was home to get back on my laptop and edit from there. You can do everything on Lark - video chat, IM, docs, sheets, calendar invites, and I heard email is coming on the way. It's made my day so much easier and my team's day as well. Such a simple idea of having everything on one app, but such a powerful platform. Excited for the upcoming features and seeing Lark grow!
Cons
Because it was still new (came out March 2019), I couldn't find much about Lark. But once I demo'd with their team and saw the platform and tried it out, I knew this was IT for my team, especially because we are all remote and in different states.
Response from Lark
Wow thanks Young, glad Lark to support your company.
