### "Best Social Media platform for employees"

October 27, 2023

5.0

My overall experience has been really awesome with workvivo and I have been using it for very long. We share pictures individually and as a team, create quiz and contest and get participation from so many employees. It's a wonderful platform

Pros

The best things I like about Workvivo are:1. Users can add pictures and videos and participate in different activities and communicate services.2. The platform can be used as a uniform communication tool and management can share important updates through Workvivo3. It's also a great software for peer recognition and sharing the success journey

Cons

Few areas I would recommended Workvivo to improve on:1. Their notifications cannot be personalized and we get pop ups for so many irrelevant posts which is not very admirable 2. We often notice glitch while playing videos of high quality and it freezes sometimes. This happens mostly in mobile application, the website works just fine3. The interface design is not very user friendly and can get difficult for new users

### "Workvivo"

April 22, 2021

4.0

It's been great! Super user-friendly, visually pleasing, and great customer service. It serves its purpose in a fun and modern way.

Pros

I like that it gives us a place to post tons of content in real-time without clogging up people's inboxes. It also allows for more casual content and gives every employee a voice and chance to engage with one another. This has all been crucial during the pandemic. Besides the comms piece of it, the apps and docs tabs were a huge selling point for us -- we needed a one stop shop for employees to get everything they'd ever need.

Cons

The search function wasn't great at first, but it's better now. Hyperlinking text in a post is still cumbersome. We'd love to have a calendar feature, and to be able to post events without it posting in the feed immediately. I also wish you could pin any post, not just global posts. And we wish "Apps" was called something else like "Links" because they're not applications, they're all links to websites on our version of WV. I also wish we could customize the name of the page, the URL, and the app name :-/

### "Feedback about the Tool"

May 2, 2021

3.0

Overall, the tools is good and it gives the basic features needed for the engagement and communication tool. It replaced our emails and other communication tools inside the company. However, there are many areas for improvement in the tool.

Pros

The badges and spaces are the best two features in the Tool

Cons

I think the tool still need many additional features for example: 1. The tagging is not always working 2. The images are not fit inside the post clearly. so the images are cropped. 3. More statistics about people who earn the Badges (Who is the most one got Badges, what are the most common badges...etc.).

Reason for choosing Workvivo

We choose Workvivio because it has the badges features, and the team were very supportive and helpful.

### "Ultromics Review of Workvivo"

May 7, 2021

5.0

The benefits is a centralised places for existing and new employees to find company updates. We use workvivo to support and promote not just cooperate information but health and wellbeing. Working with Workvivo from beginning to execution has been a great experience and \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] has been extremely helpful in supporting our company with any needs and advice.

Pros

We found workvivo an easy way to interact and stay connected with colleagues during lockdown. It is a modern take on a company intranet which has been easily accepted by our colleagues as it is seen more as a social platform for work. We liked that this can also link with our other social platforms such as Twitter. Employees also like they have a centralised space to find company information, updates and links.

Cons

Notifications do not come through to email about company updates unless visiting the site.

### "Awesome Employee Engagement tool"

April 28, 2021

5.0

The team at Workvivo has been great to work with, they provide excellent customer care and make big enhancements to their product. One of my favorites is the live stream function, which allows all users to view and or participate in a virtual meeting in real time.

Pros

Workvivo is very easy to use and has a great support team. They are in constant contact and always give helpful suggestions on how to enhance the tool and create buy in. I love that we can create multiple spaces for departments and fun topics. We also have the ability to tie everything back to our core values. If you are looking for an employee engagement tool, Workvivo is the best.

Cons

They have been making enhancements but there is only more of a high level reporting function to see total views, or users using the product, you are not able to see who view each article or have them sign off they have viewed it.

5.0

Excellent customer care from Workvivo side. Very flexible and supportive.

Pros

Workvivo offers just exactly what is needed, when implementing such a tool in a company. While it is fully adaptable to the companies corporate design, it is super easy to use and has all relevant features without a feature overload.

Cons

The backend / administration of the system could be improved.

### "Colleague Experience and Engagement"

January 20, 2021

5.0

To start the team is incredible. In our case \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] are super stars, we loooove them!!! They were key to the success of the implementation. Overall, the way they work facilitated the transition from one platform to another one that contains more features, more content governance, more roles to manage engagement better and integrations that are valuable for our employees.

Pros

\-Integrations with the rest of internal business platforms -Ease of use, it is intuitive enough that you don't need to spend a lot of time training people -Continuous improvement on features and capabilities -Cohesive and centralize corporate comms channel

Cons

The search functionality was a pain point but the team has been working with us to improve overall experience, going on the right direction now :)

We have been able to better gauge how employees are feeling about their jobs and their overall experience with our company.

Pros

Keeping the team connected, sharing experiences and projects. Getting to know each other.

Cons

i go back and forth between the mobile app and my desk top and I think that causes some glitches. on the mobile, I might see a notification but them I dont see anything. I then look at it on my desktop and see tha post. My mobile app requires me to log in about 75% of the time.

January 14, 2021

5.0

Support team are customer focussed and very pro active. Enhancements to the product are communicated on a regular basis and the team is always available to support

Pros

Workvivo provides a platform to address internal communication challenges which hinder the development of employee engagement. For RCSI Bahrain, it has provided the University with the opportunity to celebrate successes, communicate effectively and drive forward our employee engagement strategy. The project team at Workvivo are amazing to deal with and guided us through the implementation with ease. As Head of Human Resources, this tool is a phenomenal intervention in progressing our people strategy.

Cons

We have no concerns with the software or support

Reason for choosing Workvivo

Wish there were a way to separate uploads from the main feed - sometimes the doc upload or event upload activity clogs the feed.

### "A new lease of life to my work life!"

June 8, 2022

5.0

I have worked remotely for over 20 years. Up until the pandemic, I was the only person in my office who worked remotely. Honestly, it wasn't until we got Workvivo into our office that I realised how isolated I had been. Workvivo meant that I was in the loop in terms of both work updates and social updates (e.g. birthdays etc.). All of this made my job easier to do as I didn't have to work so hard to source this info and having this info made everything so much easier both socially and professionally. Safe to say, I love Workvivo.

Pros

I love the mix of text and graphics and how easy it is to interact with posts. It means that I can 'mix' with people that I wouldn't usually deal with in my day's work and I can keep up with what is going on in peoples' lives without having to be physically in the office.

Cons

The only downside to it is that if everyone doesnt adopt it, then it cant be relied on as a communication tool. But this is an organisational issue, not an issue with Workvivo.

### "Workvivo"

June 3, 2022

5.0

For us Workvivo has been I believe transformational in terms of communicating in real time across the business with colleagues in different locations and across various shifts. It was enabled us to increase engagement and share successes right across the business building on our one team ethos. It is very easy to use and we see more and more colleagues having the confidence to add posts and engage with others about business and non business news.

Pros

The product is so user friendly, very intuitive and was very easy to implement across the business. It is engaging and can be branded to make it totally unique for every organisation and is fun to use.

Cons

Very little that we didn't like about the product. Small additions would make a big difference such as using the awards section to transfer our paper based colleague recognition programme to the platform. To be honest when we have suggested improvement Workvivo have listened to the suggestions provided and implemented where appropriate

Reason for choosing Workvivo

Overall we felt the product was better, suited our business needs and also the company offers excellent customer service. We have also been able to contact a real person at the other end of the phone who is there to help if needed. The support we received before, during and after implementation was excellent.

### "WORKVIVO is the New FACEBOOK "

June 5, 2022

5.0

i would describe my experience as a wonderful and joyful one , where this platform really brings all employees all together and for example the competition posts which is posted nearly every month , this brings all employees to participate in a way that makes us want to open WORKVIVO everyday to see what's new .

Pros

i would have to say that the thing i like the most using this software is being able to check all of the company's news either if its new employees / new working tools / new platform and many other things that made me feel that the level of employee engagement has increased .

Cons

there is nothing i dislike regarding this software.

June 8, 2022

5.0

I love using Workvivo everyday. I look forward to searching for good news stories about our alumni to share with my colleagues. It's now a daily ritual that add value to my work.

Pros

Workvivo is an excellent way for me to post news alerts that will be of interest to my colleagues across our institution. It's quick and easy to do. It allows me to post call-outs to individuals and departments that will be eager to read the articles and links provided.

Cons

Can't think of many. Maybe some of the hyperlinks I try to insert don't always show up as images but that could be because of our own firewall security.

June 6, 2022

I like WorkVivo, I spend my mornings and afternoons on it, it helps me ease into work mood and it's nice to go there from time to time and see what is happening with people at work.

Pros

I love the fact that you can communicate through GIFs, I mean it's 2022, everyone uses GIFs. Also love that you can customize your notification settings, pulse surveys are great and a big help when arranging team night outs.

Cons

I would like to have emojis built in so communication could be even more expressive.

January 13, 2021

5.0

Very professional with excellent customer support. They are continually investing in and developing the platform making improvements based on customer feedback.

Pros

Excellent platform to communicate and connect with employees. It's simple and easy to use for administrators and employees alike. It facilitates faster, two way communications that helps keep our employees engaged and our business connected. We've solved the problem of reaching employees on the frontline, with no computer access. We can now communicate faster, more efficiently, using the Workvivo app which is critical during the current pandemic!

Cons

There's nothing I don't like, but there are some minor constraints as to what you can do, with some feature limitations, like direct messaging. However Workvivo are continually expanding and adding to the list of features monthly, so it's improving all the time.

5.0

Pros

I like how it brings the company together and gets us talking together. We share successes, birthdays and work anniversaries on there, as well as pictures of life and interesting articles. It is easy to use and very simple to make posts.

Cons

It would be good to have more than one option for 'liking' a post and it would also be good if it showed more that two groups that a person is in. Finally, it would be good if I could use Gifs when using work vivo on my phone. For some reason it doesn't seem to be an option, even though I have Gifs on my phone.

May 4, 2021

5.0

The team have been fantastic to work with and are always at the end of an email if we have any issues. Our employee engagement since lockdown began has been so much easier through the platform and now I can't imagine work life without it!

Pros

There are loads of great features, which are constantly being expanded upon. We've seen great engagement success with live streamed events, competitions and when sharing important business updates.

Cons

The only feature we'd love to see added is different reactions rather that just the 'heart'.
