June 6, 2019

5.0

Pros

I love how easy the dashboard is. You can get to the things you need without any hiccups. The UI is fantastic.

Cons

So far I don't have anything bad to say about Jostle. Its simple and straightforward. Looking forward to continue using it and learning more about it.

### "If all you want is to post employee photos then this is the thing for you"

December 4, 2018

2.0

Pros

Our company needed a photo directory of employees and that's what this served as. A virtual Rolodex for internal needs.

Cons

The capabilities at the time (2015-2017) were not the best. I'm not sure if they have updated it much but trying to make changes were not simple and it just wasn't robust enough as an intranet. Trying to configure it so that it would be aesthetically pleasing and simple to navigate just wasn't happening unfortunately.

Thanks for your feedback and sorry that we weren't the right fit for you! We've added a lot of functionality since mid-2016, including instant messaging, video chat, JostleTV, and much more. We've also updated the UI significantly since then. You can check out some of the updates at https://www.jostle.me/product

### "Could not love Jostle more! "

February 17, 2023

5.0

I LOVE Jostle, so much so, that I've done several demos for clients who are looking to sign up and they're always super impressed with how much we post and the engagement of our team! I would hate to switch intranets.

Pros

Signing up with Jostle has cut back significantly on non-work related emails in the inbox. It allows our committees and event coordinators the freedom and access to post as things are happening. The ease of creating and posting is a HUGE asset.

Cons

Adding librarians is a bit cumbersome as well as the Teams section. Our HR admin doesn't feel it's user-friendly.

### "We Love Jostle!"

July 19, 2022

5.0

Jostle keeps our team engaged and in the know. A majority of our team is logged into Jostle at least once a day, and are constantly interacting and posting on the site. We have all of our team events posted in Jostle, celebrations both personal and professional, and we are able to maintain the feel of a tight-knit community even though we have people working with us across the country. I can't imagine Megson FitzPatrick Insurance without Jostle!

Pros

The Activity/News Feed is our favourite feature. The ability to export the feeds into an excel document is especially helpful - if we have a team member who gets recognized for outstanding work either by a colleague or client review, they get entered to win a prize. At the end of the month, I export the activity feed and put everyone into a draw. Jostle is fairly intuitive, which makes it easy for employees of all abilities to use.

Cons

I wish there was a way to make the news articles more custom (either with formatting options, font colours or types etc). I also find the Library section a little strange - lots of layers (categories, volumes, etc) and you have to individually assign people's editing abilities to each category and volume.

### "Decent Company Community Page"

December 12, 2018

4.0

its been fine, its ease of use is nice, and many of the features and tools are handy has well. its a decent to tool to communciate with those in your whole company.

Pros

it is easy to post articles to it, the google intergration is nice, makes it easy to set up accounts and log in with for endusers. One of the best parts i would say is the people sections, it is nice cause it allows you see everyone from your company and this is nice when you have several offices like i do.

Cons

when posting articles some more and better customization would be nice, some more features would be good as well.

### "Daily companywide information platform"

October 28, 2020

4.0

Pros

I’m a general user of Jostle where I can get all the company information and new daily articles or updates that get posted. It helps me keep up to date about the company and colleagues. Also, I can post articles and appreciate colleagues on the platform.

Cons

UI of the software is not very intuitive and it’s a bit confusing and slow. I don’t like the fact that whenever I need to download something, I actually have to open it in the new tab and then download (Maybe it’s something that our company has set-up, but I hate it)

### "Workplace becomes extraordinary"

October 23, 2018

5.0

Pros

Jostle is a great addition to any company or even startup, despite the size. Intuitive design, great event management, easy to navigate. A good way to share news or useful stuff with employees, way better than plain old emails.

Cons

Can use improvement in options available for organizing different areas, such as the Team area. Documentation could be a bit more detailed.

### "Medoicre attempt at a company-wise social network."

December 20, 2018

2.0

Pros

The landing page has a lot of links and shortcuts to other pages. Also, the ability to send the email of a post to the entire organization.

Cons

UI is mediocre. Search is terrible. The post-construction page is weird, not intuitive, and doesn't allow much customization. What's the difference between article and featured article anyway? Also, poor notifications.

### "Great for connecting inside an organization, the team overview is incredibly useful to a new starter"

July 17, 2018

4.0

Pros

The best feature of this software is hands down the event handler. Managing meetings is a breeze using Jostle.

Cons

The only downside I can point is the erratic crashes on the phone app, albeit annoying not a deal breaker.

### "Jostle is Your Answer!"

November 2, 2016

5.0

We love Jostle. We are nearly an entirely virtual company that was growing beyond the capacity of email and phone calls. Jostle gives us the opportunity to stay connected no matter where we are in the world. We love the left side rolling twitter-like announcements. Our folks share everything personal and professional! New babies, promotions, celebrations, changes, etc. The articles, research, etc. are great but I love the surveys. We can collect company data through surveys nearly instantaneously! And the Jostle folks are cool. We're the customers but we want Jostle to be proud of us, too, we do b/c they help us communicate our important work with kids.

Pros

Ease and applicability

Cons

Can't think of any . . .

### "We LOOOOVE Jostle..."

September 16, 2017

5.0

Internal formal & informal announcements & communication moved out of the mailbox and into a shared environment. Staff now have a platform to easily share content and collaborate. All users have their default browser home page set to Jostle. Engagement metrics are outstanding!

Pros

People-centric. Clear layout and navigation, easy for users to learn. Very easy to administer. Ability to leverage SAML SSO if your company has the IT resources.

Cons

Not many. File Library could be more robust. Lacks the ability to automatically age archive content.

### "It does what it does very well"

December 2, 2015

4.0

If you are looking for an intranet that is simple for your employees to use and doesn't require hours of administration from your IT technical team, this is the product for you. However, if you are looking for a product that can be highly customised to match your corporate brand and standard processes, keep on looking. As there are few configuration options, every implementation of Jostle will look the same whichever organisation is using it. For those people who are regular users of social media, it has a recognisable interface and navigation is easy and intuitive. Because of this users require little or no training. Jostle provide extensive support during the initial implementation, although not much its needed. The highlight of the Jostle intranet is the People section that allows users to quickly find staff and see their position within the organisation represented in a clear graphical way. It has excellent fuzzy logic when searching for names and common nicknames; for example a search for "Robert" would also display result for "Bob", "Rob", "Bobby" and any other alternative. On the downside, there is trade off between simplicity of use and simplicity of function. Some areas of the product do not have the advanced functionality that other hosted intranet applications have. The Discussion section feels like a recent addition without the level of sophistication that one would normally expect to see within a mature product. So, if your organisation wants a simple, easy to use, easy to implement intranet and you are prepared to work within the boundaries set by the product, Jostle can be the ideal solution.

### "Just what we were looking for!"

November 2, 2016

5.0

Jostle has allowed us to up our internal communication game! We have associates located across the US and now everyone is privy to the same information. We also use it as a document storage library, allowing every associate an easy way to access any document they would need during the sales process or for their clients. Our associates love being able to give shout-outs and seeing anniversary and birthdays.

Pros

Ease of use and loading content. Love the library, shout out features and being able to see birthdays and work anniversarys

Cons

I wish it could be customized a bit more to fit some of our unique needs.

Brand-wide communication with customizable feature that best fit out company's style.

Pros

How easy it is to start and reference conversations, make brand-wide announcements, and organize shift coverage through Classifieds

Cons

The "Teams" area is slightly hard to organize and a little less user friendly than the rest of the site.

We embraced Jostle about two years ago as a way to boost awareness of company success stories, important organizational issues and employee news. Jostle has proven to be a colorful, engaging, fun way to accomplish these objectives. It's been a great answer to our internal communication challenges.

### "Build a bond"

April 17, 2019

5.0

Overall this is an engaging program for your team, especially when the company is national. It's great during conferences and being able to collect contact information and keep a relationship going. Thanks, Jostle!

Pros

Share information to your company easily and make it fun! Jostle is the Facebook of business. You can see all contacts within your company, and can either directly message, or share to the newsfeed.

Cons

I wish I could look back at what I have been tagged in for memory purposes. Sometimes it's a nice reminder to see when someone's given you a shout out, or if you do not see a notification right away and want to look back it can be hard to sift through the new posts.

### "Connect your company in a flash!!"

October 24, 2017

4.0

Pros

If you have employees that are in multiple locations, this product is a fantastic way of connecting everyone! From the field to the office, this product makes it super easy to provide project updates/shout outs, birthday/anniversary notifications, CEO motivational blogs, etc. The set up takes a minimal amount of effort, and makes it easy to keep the entire company up to date 24/7, since employees can log on from almost anywhere!

Cons

It's a stand alone product - which is by design - but results in some duplication of entry with other software.

December 2, 2015

5.0

Jostle software program is easy to use, easy to navigate and helps us sustain our culture on a national level. Staff from around the country are feeling and staying more connected to the head office which is based in Sydney. We have regular contributors who help boost morale and this is an integral part of maintaining our famous Ricky Richards culture. Staff would like to be able to customise their own folders in the library and would like to see quicker options of attaching documents to an email. Other than that - staff feedback is positive and we will continue to use this site to help improve our external and internal corporate image which aligns itself with our company strategic goals.

December 3, 2015

Jostle has transformed the way we communicate, globally. We're able to inform, educate and inspire our employees and at the same time collaborate through the discussion tool. We've also reduced the admin time in departments like HR, Marketing and finance by sharing corporate documents in the library. I'd love to see a more customisable look or structure, so that we can make it feel more like Adlens. Overall a great tool
