Glasscubes Overview

Glasscubes. In professional settings, employers and employees usually send files to each other via a cloud platform. That means the files can be hosted there for as long as they like. A problem may arise when a worker experiences challenges uploading files online. Some digital platforms reject certain file types, while others limit them based on size. Thankfully, Glasscubes allows users to share any file they want due to its strong firewall.

There is still a lot of things you should know about the platform. Here are details about its features and pricing plans below.

Task Time Tracking

Some workers take a short time to complete a task, while others take longer to complete the same one. As a manager, you may be interested in how long workers complete a task. Glasscubes’ task time tracking feature allows users to record time as they work on a task. When they are done working, they can generate a report that you can analyze.

Its timing feature also allows workers to set targets. Before doing a task, you will estimate how long it will take to complete it. If you finish on time, the software will highlight your task in green, but if you exceed the estimated time, it will turn red.

Creating and Managing Workspaces

An organization runs many activities, so its computers will likely become cluttered. Think about it; a worker has to respond to emails, use another chat program and type on a word processing feature. Glasscubes allows you to reduce clutter on your desktop by allowing you to create as many workspaces as possible. To make working easier, you can label them.

When creating a workspace, you must log in as an administrator. After you log in, you should see a section enabling you to add workspaces in the “Workspace groups” section.

Intranet/Extranet

Companies intending to use Glasscubes as an extranet should limit some elements from external users. First, you should block workers from creating workspaces. If you allow that, they will run activities that do not aid your company’s growth. Another feature to limit is the news feed. Some workers can get distracted reading news for endless hours instead of working.

To identify external users, you can head to the settings and select extranet setup. You can now enter domains that you want to treat as internal users. Any user whose email does not contain glasscubes.com is an external user. You will see that information from the dashboard.

Pricing Plans

Before you begin paying monthly to use this service, you can enjoy its 30-day free trial. If the service appeals to you, choose a plan based on the size of your team. Here are the monthly prices for its plans:

  • Team- $40
  • Workgroup-$80
  • Enterprise-$160

Conclusion

It is impressive what Glasscubes can do besides sharing files. The platform ensures the safety of your documents in different ways. Since it allows you to set up an intranet, you can block external users from accessing them. Also, this platform is great for boosting productivity thanks to its tracking time feature. Workers know they will be answerable to their bosses if they are late, so they are unlikely to slack off.
