Ambition vs Hoopla | TrustRadius

Likelihood to Recommend

Well suited: environments that crave social affirmation, social competition, or other organizations that can't incentivize success via compensation.Not well-suited: environments that support several similar roles that have different metrics. Example: we have 5 similar roles at my company that would benefit from Ambition, and each of these teams sits close to each other. It's challenging to customize Ambition to display multiple different roles with different metrics, rewards, and content. If you display the content on a screen in your office, it's best suited for only one role/team. Otherwise, you'll likely need to deploy Ambition to different teams separately, via a different account.

The Hoopla solution is ideal for a sales team that is high paced, young, and excited by winning at all levels. It is great for an inside sales environment, which I have, but I am not sure how valuable it would be for a field sales organization. I do like the mobile app, and field sellers would have to get used to looking at it. The value of the TVs (I have 5) on the wall displaying the leaderboards would be missed

Game features are complicated to set up; had to call Hoopla to walk me through it.
More customization in the games would be great.
The ability for users to check any leaderboard or page they would like to see, instead of waiting for the whole scroll to go through.

I have evaluated a few products similar to Ambition, at a high level. I have not used others.I implement Ambition at our office for one team, but I wasn't the only decision maker.

I inherited the Hoopla contract and I am committed to its success. When I see other providers solutions (I forgot a few names) I do like the business aspect a bit more than the "all sports" theme that Hoopla uses. However it does not fail to engage so I will continue to maximize our investment and evaluate in a couple years when the contract comes up. Nothing is or would entice me to make the change early

We hear music and folks cheer when a "Breaking News" announcement occurs. The community level engagement can not be quanitified
The contest environments have helped to lead sellers to stay an extra 30 minutes and make 10 more calls just to pass someone up. We see our call volume increased because of it.
We measure the trails of our solution that our sellers create from leads. We can see an active pursuit of those conversions to be at the top of the leaderboard. More trails, lead to more opportunities, that lead to more sales.
