Guests are a feature available on paid plans only. There are two types of guest users in Pumble:

  • Single channel guests
  • Multi-channel guests

Multi-channel guests are charged as regular users and hey can be added to an unlimited number of private or public channels, but only to the channels you specify.

Single-channel guests can only be a member of one private or public channel, and you can invite up to 5 single-channel guests free of charge, for each paid seat on your Workspace. This means that for each purchased seat on a workspace, you get 5 single-channel guests for free.

It’s important to note that within a single workspace, you cannot have a mix of subscription plans. The plan you purchase applies to the entire workspace, meaning that all users within that workspace share the same subscription plan.

Storage in Pumble takes into count all PDFs, documents, images, screenshots, and audio and video files (including audio and video messages) uploaded to a channel or direct message. Text messages and links shared in messages do not take storage space.

The amount of space available for a workspace varies by plan, and you can track available storage space by checking the storage indicator when you click on the arrow next to your Workspace icon. On Free plan, there is 10GB storage for the whole workspace. On paid plans storage is also shared across the workspace, but grows with the number of purchased seats. For example, if you have 10 seats purchased on PRO plan, your combined workspace memory will be 100GB.

All users (including Guests) can upload files. To free up storage, any user can delete the files they have uploaded to Pumble.

It is not necessary for workspace users to have the same email domain.

Yes, they can. Users added to a channel can see the whole channel history.

Sections are visible only to the user that made the sections. What could possibly solve your issue is to agree with your team to create the same sections for yourselves.

No, at the moment it is not possible to see who viewed a message on Pumble.

At present, Pumble supports desktop and mobile notifications. While email notifications are available, they are specifically designed to update you on the latest features, product updates, improvements, and bug fixes.

Check your spam or junk folder. Occasionally, legitimate emails may end up in these folders.To make sure you receive our emails timely, it may be necessary for you to authorize specific IP addresses and domains associated with our services. If you are using an enterprise email system, it is recommended to reach out to your system administrator or IT department. They can assist you in whitelisting our domains and IP addresses at the system level, ensuring consistent email delivery. These steps should resolve the issue you might be facing.

If you are not receiving notifications on your laptop, check if notifications are allowed in the system settings of your device. On mobile app, check if notifications coming from Pumble are allowed in permissions. Also, it is possible that you are not receiving your notifications due to your notification schedule.

Check the schedule following these steps: Click on your profile photo and select Preferences. If your notification preferences are set the way you want them to be, try restarting the app. These steps should help resolve any notification issues you might be facing.

To unsubscribe from email notifications, click on your profile icon and select Preferences from the dropdown. Open Email tab, and uncheck the checkbox that says “Receive emails about product updates, or newest features, improvements and bug fixes”.

If you’re receiving emails and didn’t register for Pumble, it’s possible that your Clockify app is integrated with Pumble. This integration occurs when an admin connects your Clockify Workspace with Pumble, migrating all active Clockify users to Pumble, including their name, email, and photo.

If you wish to stop receiving emails, open Pumble app and log in with the same credentials that you use on Clockify. Then click on your profile picture and select Preferences from the dropdown. Click on the Email tab, and uncheck the checkbox. You may still receive some important announcements. To completely unsubscribe from Pumble, ask your admin to deactivate your Pumble account.

By default all regular members are added to the general channel when they join Pumble. In order to restrict a user from accessing the general channel, you can change their role to a guest (single-channel or multi-channel) and not include the general channel when choosing the channel(s) they can access. Also, when inviting a new user, you can invite them as a guest and choose not to add them to the general channel.

At the moment, it is not possible to turn off messaging between all users in a Workspace. It is possible to make a sort of restriction, if you add users as guests. Guests can only initiate direct messages with users that belong to the same channel(s) as they do. However, be aware that all regular members in the workspace can initiate direct messages with guests, and that way guests can still communicate with other workspace users.
