We love the ability to recognize peers and align the High Fives with core values (and having it integrate with Slack creates visibility which encourages use of the feature) The Performance Review features are quite customizable and do most of what we'd like. The goal setting function is robust, however I wish that area was a bit less complicated as we'd like to be able to zoom out for company milestones, it just looks busy. In terms of managing an employee's lifecycle from hire on past their 30/60/90 day goals, that piece is customizable however I'd love it if check-ins were completely custom.
Bonusly can be a game changer for fostering a culture of appreciation and engagement amongst staff. It speaks especially well to the younger generation, but even our more senior staff seem to love it to. I could see it being a little more difficult to use in industries in which technology use was not part of the day to day work, as you do need to either pull the app up or look at your email to know if someone sent you Bonusly points and recognition. In any office setting, education, healthcare, technology, or other industry though that includes an email or computer component, Bonusly ties seamlessly into the day and I have yet to find a place that has implemented it who hasn’t loved it
Prize selection, a wide variety of gift card, charity, and even PayPal cash payout options.
Prize reclamation/flow of money in, and points out. Most other systems are not nearly as hands-free as this. People are able to claim everything with zero approval/foot-work from your HR/Admin team. No prize book to maintain, no trips to the gas station to buy gift cards. It's just smooth.
Freedom to post however/whatever you like in the open-ended timeline/social media-esk posting feature.
I think 15Five dashboards can be quite clunky and difficult to use
I think their One-on-one management feature makes it difficult to track action items or search histories across time or multiple employees--a simple Google Doc is much more effective or Notion if you want even more functionality
In my opinion, 15Five's customer service is among the worst I have experienced from a software company. They will nickel and dime you and use hidden fine print to wring as much money as they can from you.
This program is the absolute best I've ever used in 30 years with organizations. Not only do I enjoy being a user and "filling it out" every week- but I would personally buy it if available for goal tracking in my personal life I love it that much!
It's very simple to use - not overly complicated. You wouldn't need training to use. There are some features I never use because I don't understand -- like one on ones. However we use without and still find a lot of value in it!
15Five support is quick and helpful. We work with other vendors in the people management space and performance tracking/management who offshore their support or force us into long queues to chat for support and it just doesn't support our needs very well. 15Five is responsive and speedy. We constantly evaluate our vendors for their support and have switched vendors in the past in other areas because of limited support capabilities
Very helpful webinar training. They answer questions, the slides are all very helpful, and they send you the presentation once the webinar is complete so that you can share with your team.
Visually 15Five blows Yammer out of the water! Yammer was easy to use as well, but it felt very difficult to get on to and was not single sign-on when we were using it. 15Five allows for easy login with single sing on feature and has less "clicks" to get to where I need to be on the program. I also love the app way more than Yammer!
Bonusly builds a recognition-rich culture like no other reward and recognition software by empowering everyone to recognize their peers, direct reports, and managers. With nifty features and a simple interface, Bonusly is fun and intuitive to use and employees tend to adopt quickly and use it frequently. It is definitely a game-changer.
For the majority of months over the past year months, over 95% of our active employees receive Bonusly points from at least one coworker each month, increasing the opportunities to feel appreciated for the hard work they do.
More than 50% of Bonusly points and appreciation that are given by one employee are "added onto" by another employee, showing that the staff really do read through the great things others are doing and thus prompt one another to celebrate as well.
