I have been using Pingboard for about 2 years now and one of the main use case for us with Pingboard is to create organizational charts. Whenever some new employee joins in or someone leaves the organization, it is very easy to create and update the organization charts. Also, we use it for employee engagement to keep all our employees connected.
Pros
Creating flows and charts is very simple and straightforward
In-depth profile information about each coworker
Very easy to update information like open positions
Cons
There can be a featured with which we can track an employees performance
1:1 meetings is buggy and can be drastically improved
More integrations with meeting and peer review software is needed

We utilized PingBoard to illustrate our org chart within the business. We were growing very fast and it was often hard to understand what role someone had when they reach out for support. I also used it to identify the right person to start with within the org when I needed some support on something.
Pros
Illustrated org chart.
search for individuals, understand where they fall in the org.
Find individual's details - role, email, boss, direct reports.
Cons
Nice if could email or slack directly from contact card.
Better description of their responsibilities.
Likelihood to Recommend
Worked well for a larger, expanding, or contracting organization. Helpful to see where people report and their titles with a lot of change. Not needed for smaller companies where the org chart can fit on a powerpoint or two.
