### "It is an easy-to-use program to keep order in wellness and health activities. Very useful."

August 2, 2018

5.0

Suggest a program that integrates good habits in the same application.

Pros

I think it is important to keep the routines of exercise, hydration in combination with good eating habits integrated in the same program.

Cons

The routine of exercise programs and the delay of the program sometimes. In the same way there could be a section that allows to customize a little more the diet plans.

### "Easy to use app to track health and wellness"

January 15, 2018

5.0

Health track - and rewards!

Pros

Easy to use and intuitive. Big fan of apps like Optimity that don't require daily login for them to do their job and Optimity is one of them. Great integrations. Clean design.

Cons

No major gripes about Optimity. Only desire would be for more health metrics but this would be more of a nice to have.

### "Not as advertised"

March 15, 2023

3.0

Often behind in tracking from a FitBit. Will not continue with Optimity if the More Rewards are no longer offered, reloaded, and redeemable

Pros

App based. Daily activities. Tracking OK

Cons

App is glitchy. Support…meh. Joined as it offered “gems to More Points” option. More Points are always “out of stock” in past 2 months. Reload of More Points based EST at noon…..say what!? Yes, middle of workday. But I have not seen any reloaded, always out of stock when I go to redeem. Either some members are redeeming more than their share or Optimity is not actually reloading

Reason for choosing Optimity

Primarily cost. Availability of More Points for gems. In this case it is becoming a “you get what you pay for” scenario

### "So easy, but pricey"

September 12, 2018

5.0

The customer service people were really nice and helpful as our contract sunsetted. Appreciated the referral to Google and the time they took to answer my questions.

Pros

I loved Optimizely. So easy to set up a test and watch it run!

Cons

Well, I started using it a while back. Loved it. But, we eventually were forced to upgrade and it became way out of our ballpark. Too bad. Good tool if you can afford irt.

### "A great motivator to get up and move as well as track my meals"

January 11, 2018

5.0

Exercise motivation

Pros

The fact that I can break the goal list in to chunks rather than one session makes optimity more accessible

Cons

The current lack of rewards, I believe it was to switch to a monthly subscription service that allowed earning more rewards but this has not happened yet

### "Overall good experience, though significant difficulties with mibands"

January 16, 2018

4.0

Awareness of some activities that could improve overall health, that may not have been known before. Accountability for water intake / step count.

Pros

The software is user friendly, and easy to understand. People enjoy the tasks, and the rewards, though have asked for varied rewards.

Cons

The tasks seem to repeat frequently, so some of our users have become bored of the app / program and only complete the tasks for the points / cash out.

### "Good health resource"

January 18, 2021

3.0

Pros

I gave a small rating for this software because I haven't used it very long. But so far I enjoy having a way to hold myself accountable for a daily step goal. I also feel the quizzes and information that goes with them is very useful and helpful.

Cons

I like least about this software, the earning and rewards. The amount of diamonds/points earn is acceptable back the fact that they can only be used for raffles instead of for sure rewards is disappointing.

4.0

Pros

I like the fun ways the app motivates me to be more active, the connectivity options, and the rewards!

Cons

I find it hard to keep up with at times because of the huge number of activities. Also, doing some of the activities at my desk isn't always possible without garnering unwanted attention in an open workplace.

September 22, 2023

5.0

Very positive, and rewarding to track wellness.

Pros

Very easy to use and integrate with fitness trackers, as well as track goals and recieve rewards

Cons

Wish the tracking would be a little more robust, being able to break it down by day would really improve the experience.

### "Easy to use, features & functionality are ok"

January 15, 2018

4.0

Made me aware, that without knowing I was super efficient with my organization skills and cleanliness OCD, and how simple day to day activity, like smiling or getting up to strech can count as exercices.

Pros

that it is easy to use. the functionality and features are broad enough for a large audience. The short text are informative.

Cons

Always the same exercises every day. Gets boring after a while. To many pictures to take and text to read. Doesn't get you up on you running

### "Overall pleased when with the product. Its gone through a couple iteration and its current is best!"

January 11, 2018

4.0

Lose a few lbs! Friendly company competition ;)

Pros

The UI interface is elegant; simple yet intuitive. Also, the Reward system is straight forward and easy to redeem! 1 last thing, I really appreciate the UI animations, let the person(s) who worked on it know that they've done an magnificent job. It's not too much or too little, there is enough to notice that makes the app 'pop' more. Definitely adds excitement when using the app.

Cons

Gets stuck on loading spinner sometimes when opening the app. Android 7.0 Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge.

### "It was great. love it. I wish they add more activities and important information about healthy habit"

January 22, 2018

5.0

Pros

The software is user friendly. It save time for me to go to the gym as I can do it in my house especially during my free time. The software is easy to follow and easy to remember. It is not hard to do it.

Cons

I like the software very much. I gives me time to do it on my own time with out going to the gym. It saves time and money to pay extra for gym. I always do it on a daily basis so I am used it and I spend extra time doing the exercise when I have extra time.

### "It was helpful, but frustrating at times."

January 13, 2018

4.0

Pros

Easy to understand. The tips were helpful and I liked that it gave more helpful tips that covered a wide range of things besides eating healthy and exercising such as meditating.

Cons

In the beginning, it was difficult to connect to my device. There were times that the software did an update and it "locked" me out from using it that day causing me to lose my place which was 2nd. I did have a representative try to assist me, but it didn't work.
