Ask HN: What communication tools have you seen work well in distributed teams?
It seems like there is a plethora of tools to help teams communicate and share with each other (Slack, Hangouts, Skype, Yammer, Hipchat, etc.). Which tools or processes have you found esp usually when working in a distributed team? From personal experience I love Basecamp and Trello for project management. I've also tried Wrike but it wasn't as seamless as the other two. I also use Hubstaff for tracking my time and getting time reports. I used to just guesstimate how much I should bill clients but that was such a headache. I haven't used it personally but I also hear good things about Insightly. Slack works extraordinarily well for us (4-man distributed team), and we tried HipChat before that, and Campfire before that. WebEx is good
