FAQs

What's the difference between Blink and Zelo?

Zelo is a newsletter and internal email tool — it's designed for communicators who want to send well-formatted updates via email, SMS, and Teams. It's a broadcast platform. Blink is a digital front door — a branded mobile app where your whole workforce logs in every day. It combines communication, team chat, policy sign-off, compliance tracking, and resource access in one place. If your team has frontline workers without work email, you need Blink.

We use WhatsApp alongside Zelo for team chat. Why change?

Some of our staff don't have a work email. Can they still use Blink?

Can employees respond and communicate back — or is it one-way?

How quickly can we get set up?

Blink is a digital front door — a branded mobile app where your whole workforce logs in every day. It combines communication, team chat, policy sign-off, compliance tracking, and resource access in one place. If your team has frontline workers without work email, you need Blink.

We use WhatsApp alongside Zelo for team chat. Why change?

WhatsApp gives you no audit trail, no data control, and no proof that your team received important communications. Blink replaces both tools — giving you compliant messaging and broadcast updates in one platform you own.

Some of our staff don't have a work email. Can they still use Blink?

Yes — that's exactly what Blink is built for. Staff join via QR code or personal phone number. No corporate email, no IT setup, no training required. Zelo requires a work email address to reach employees. Blink doesn't.

Can employees respond and communicate back — or is it one-way?

Blink is two-way. Employees can chat, comment, acknowledge, and respond — in real time. Zelo is primarily a broadcast tool. Your team receives messages but can't communicate back through the same platform.

How quickly can we get set up?

Most teams are live within a day. In your onboarding session we configure your branded app, set up your staff groups, and walk through your first update together. No IT department required. Start a free 14-day trial today without speaking to a salesperson.
