For a new generation of all-in-one software developers, Lark’s powerful do-everything collaboration platform is the perfect solution.

The Summary

Few tools are as powerful for a rapidly growing startup as a good, integrated collaboration suite. The ability to combine key communication tasks like chat, video conferencing and email with productivity tools like document creation, approvals and project management is essential for getting ahead, especially during the pandemic.

One such startup is Overcast Games Software Development Service, a Filipino company that takes a truly one-stop-shop approach to dev work by offering traditional software and web development as well as more specialized app and game development.

In order to service such a wide variety of clients, Overcast needed a collaboration suite that was powerful, scalable and most importantly, flexible.

The Challenge

Since its inception as a company primarily focused on gaming, Overcast has expanded rapidly and in order to collaborate and communicate, relied primarily on third party off-the shelf solutions.

However, as the team sizes continued to grow and the company began taking on more complex projects, these third-party applications and their siloed nature increased inefficiencies and required more management oversight.

The Lark Advantage

Lark’s comprehensive suite enterprise-grade collaboration tools allowed Overcast Games Software Development Service to unify all their collaboration and communications tasks in a single platform.

In particular, Lark’s open-platform design allowed the team to integrate existing dev solutions, straight into Lark without ever needing to leave the Lark ecosystem. The team at Overcast were also pleased with the plethora of connectors and apps available on the Lark App Directory.

The company also praised Lark’s simple notification system that allowed for important messages to be disseminated to relevant groups.

The Summary

• Greater cost savings with a single piece of software to maintain
• Easier scalability as the company rapidly grows and acquires new clients.
• Time and man hours saved with a single platform collaboration solution
• Open platform allowed the team to keep using the tools they love
