Why Reactions Matter

In today’s remote-first and global work environment, text-based communication can often lose the subtlety of face-to-face interactions. Reactions, like emojis, help to:

  • Add tone and context to conversations.

  • Strengthen your team’s culture through thoughtful responses.

  • Provide quick and engaging ways to acknowledge comments without additional messages.

Small gestures, like reactions, can make significant impacts in creating an inclusive and positive workspace.


Where to React to Comments

1. Click the icon next to the comment counter to view simple reactions. When you hover over a reaction, a tooltip will display the reacting member.

2. Add a wide range of reactions directly in a comment by clicking the emoji icon.


Smart Tips

Reactions to Comments

  • Once the first reaction is added, other members are intuitively prompted to add their reactions by clicking the +plus sign below the comment.

Note: SmartSuite does not notify members when reactions occur. So if you have something important to say in reaction to a comment.

  • Users can only react once per comment. Hitting the + Plus sign and adding a reaction will just update your prior reaction.
