Why Choose Woven after Meta’s Workplace Shutdown
July 8, 2024
With the shutdown of Meta’s Workplace, many businesses are scrambling for a reliable alternative. These organizations must find a new platform to ensure seamless communication, compliance, and operational efficiency for their locations and employees. One solution is Woven, designed specifically to meet the needs of multi-unit franchisees and franchisors.
A Breakdown of the Meta Workplace Shutdown
Meta’s Workplace will operate normally until August 31, 2025. From September 1, 2025, it will transition to a read-only mode, allowing users to access and download their data until May 31, 2026. After this period, the platform will be permanently decommissioned.
Workplace’s shutdown means the loss of various features for businesses:
- Communication tools like chat and video calls
- Document sharing and collaboration capabilities
- Project management functions
- Integrations with other tools
- Employee engagement features
How to Prepare for Your Business for Workplaces’ Closure
- Assess Current Usage: Understand all the ways your team uses Workplace.
- Export Data: Use tools provided by Meta to back up essential data.
- Identify Alternatives: Research and evaluate new platforms.
- Plan Transition: Develop a timeline and strategy for migrating to a new platform.
