15Five vs TINYpulse

• The technology - 15Five manages all the organization of questions/submissions, and reminders.
• Simplicity - 15Five isn't difficult to set up. And all of our users found it very easy to interface with.
• Great features - You can add as many answers as you want. You can tag people. You can do a lot with it.

• TINYpulse provides a nice, prepackaged survey platform with a library of suggested questions to use and hard-coded timelines and processes... so it is truly a "plug and play" tool.
• The platform produces some graphics and other methodology for assisting HR in delivering survey results to the rest of the executive team and/or to share with employees.
• TINYpulse does a DYNAMIC job in selling the message that the employee's responses are anonymous. Not sure if it is a generational issue or the result of younger generations watching a parent go thru a RIF or other job elimination, but the notion of radically-candid feedback is not one which I've found to be present with many Millennials (here or in past organizations), so this is a big selling point for TINYpulse.
• The TINYpulse platform offers a "Cheers for Peers" program, allowing the company to promote another form of peer-to-peer recognition which can even be linked to Slack (or nearly any business-based instant messaging system) to create a constant feed for all to see those receiving recognition for going above-and-beyond.

• Questions are repetitive weekly, though this may be a function of our administrator, and not the platform itself. Answering the same questions every 2 weeks is an awful lot like the movie Groundhog day.
• Give employees at all levels visibility into the "How are you feeling" score to get a pulse on the entire company at once.

• TINYpulse sometimes makes updates to their app and website, and when navigating as an admin, I have found some of the links to be broken after an update.
• The pricing structure of TINYpulse has changed since we first began using it, changing from a pay per user amount to a bulk-buy amount. This led to some confusion when we went to add more users.

• 15Five has positively impacted the information provided to our leadership team. Our direct supports feel more connected to their department and are able to resolve issues as they arise, or even beforehand.
• It has provided a positive impact on the 'kudos' or positive reinforcement our employees can provide to one another.

• It's an easy way to get feedback and suggestions. I think it contributes to the team culture of wanting to always question and improve.
• It's an easy way to build rapport among teammates and I think contributes to overall sense of team building (especially for a dispersed team).
• It's an easy way to keep your finger on the overall pulse of the team and allows management to be able to quickly address any frustrations or issues before they become bigger concerns.
