Pingboard, is an employee directory and org chart software for growing companies. Pingboard raised $2.2 million in seed funding from Silverton Partners. The software is designed to solve problems that growing companies tend to have such as getting up to date contact information for employees, helping employees put a face to a name, knowing who’s out of the office, and storing data on employees. Company information is housed in one directory that can be updated by the employees themselves or the administrators. It can also be shared or kept private.
