### "Review of Bambu"

October 24, 2018

4.0

Overall Bambu has been a great experience for our organization. We were able to test the tool on a small scale and decided to move forward with using the tool long term. So far we're liking it and appreciate Bambu's support.

Pros

I like how intuitive Bambu is for at both the admin and reader level.

Cons

Bambu's pros out-weigh the cons, but there are a few glitches we've run into since implementing company-wide. Being able to further customize the newsletter emails, have a more visible leaderboard and better organization of team/topics would be very helpful.

### "Simplified Employee Advocacy"

November 14, 2018

4.0

Enjoyable overall experience. Their sales and support teams are very knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating.

Pros

Bambu is really simple to admin and to be an end user of. They really kept simplicity and clean interfaces in mind when designing the platform. And the mobile app is really convenient and easy to use.

Cons

Reporting could be more custom depending on metrics that are most important to the org, but it's a minor con. They've continued to add more reports over time, so I would expect features/capabilities to improve.

### "A valuable employee advocacy tool for engaging your team"

September 20, 2017

4.0

Being a team of 1, it would be very difficult for me to encourage employee advocacy without a tool to assist me.

Pros

The User Interface is clean and simple, making it easy to use as an admin as well as a user. The platform's features are instinctive no matter what level of comfort you have with technology and social tools. I like that I can review metrics on both who's sharing and the content being shared.

Cons

I'm not using much is the Facebook post direct share feature much. It doesn't "look" like the Facebook post when you're reviewing the available stories list in the platform, so it's less appealing to share. I look forward to potential future integration with Sprout Social, as well.

### "Bambu is excellent for our employee advocacy program"

October 25, 2018

5.0

Pros

I love the tracking features Bambu provides.

Cons

I wish we could "turn off" certain social media sites that our employees can share to for some stories. We often have tweets that obviously need to be shared only to Twitter, but the LinkedIn and Facebook icons still show up for that story, and it makes it a little confusing for our employees. It would be nice if that feature were implemented, from an admin standpoint.

### "Features Review"

November 16, 2018

4.0

Its been great. Some of our team shares a lot on twitter and hopefully it will lead to more business!

Pros

The employee advocacy concept! It is great to have pre-approved content for our employees. Seeing analytics is great as well.

Cons

The features. We should be able to add a picture just to Linkedin. When we use the "link component" on twitter images do not appear. I think that it needs to be tested more on why things look the way they do when they are posted.

### "Bambu for busy account execs"

November 25, 2018

5.0

Our goal with Bambu software is to create an advocacy platform for our busy account execs. The software takes all the heavy lifting out of their hands, and with a few clicks, allows them to share important information about our company. The net effect is that they are creating awareness for our company, extending their personal brand, and sharing information that is relevant to their social network contacts.

Pros

The software is very simple to use and intuitive.

Cons

I have nothing to report at this time. The software works as promised.

November 19, 2018

4.0

Pros

Ease of use, some content easily available. You can easily plan out your week and utilize analytics to post when you will have the most activity.

Cons

This isn't necessarily related to Sprout Social, but there is not enough content that is available. I would also like to see more connection between other tools like LinkedIn SalesNavigator

### "Great software for engaged employees"

March 6, 2020

4.0

Overall, it was a fine experience. It did a basic job for us, but moving forward we will look for something that does more for the business, like more engagement or social listening capabailities.

Pros

I like that the software made it easy for our company to share new content, annoucements and resources with thier social audiences.

Cons

The features worked fine, but there's nothing I would rave about to others. There wasn't a lot that made our sales force want to use it.
