Eqo – Employee Referral Solution for the Frontline vs. Rippling

Perfect fit for: Large organizations with over 2,000 employees and a frontline workforce (such as nursing, technicians, waiters, retail associates and drivers). Currently managing referrals on spreadsheets or not truly tapping into the power of employee referrals. As a helpful benchmark to compare to, best-in-class organizations have 40% of their hires come through referrals. Less suitable for: Smaller organizations with less than 2,000 employees, no frontline workforce, and don't face challenges in employee referral management or engagement.

I believe Rippling can benefit a company of any size. We have 2 entities built into the system and it has simplified all of the employee, payroll and benefit management that we did manually before. Rippling's system is intuitive and easy to learn, and could benefit any organization.

• Automatically tracks and manages referrals, eliminating the need for spreadsheets.
• Provides a simple referring experience for frontline workers because it's all done via text.
• Targeted text campaigns to keep employees engaged with the referral program.
• Very passionate leadership team that also provides strategy and creative support to their customers as part of the service.

• Refer a friend or colleague for a job opening.
• Apply yourself for a new position.
• The PTO and vacation process is very simple, fully online, and the forms are easy to fill out. Reports are quickly sent to our managers for approval. Maybe it sounds like I’m exaggerating, but I’m really not — maybe it's just something we take for granted. I used to work at a great company with an absolutely terrible system. For over ten years, they couldn’t manage to replace it. Simple things like requesting time off, getting a raise, or uploading documents took forever — sometimes months — and even the IT team struggled with it. Compared to that, Rippling truly feels like magic.
• Again: Intuitive, simple, just how it should be! We already have work and tasks that are often complicated! An HR system that is meant to help employees shouldn’t add to our workload, stress, or become a source of problems.

• One point I highlighted with their team was the importance of Eqo – Employee Referral Solution for the Frontline being able to function without ATS/HRIS integrations for smoother rollouts and pilot programs — and they've already successfully achieved this capability.

• The complex customized report is still a challenge between two departments. Comparison reports still lack across the departments.
• The icons can be more visualized for better search, otherwise it will take time to go with menus.
• The alignment in data points should be more accurate and specific with centralized key points according to their menu.
• The help and reference links should always be their on each page to switch quickly.

Rippling continues to innovate and amaze me with their new innovations and features. Product feedback is taken seriously so I always give it whenever I can and end up seeing results. Rippling is the new wave of HRIS that cannot compare against others in the industry just due to the fact they are super user friendly!

Rippling is very intuitive and easy to use. That's one of the things I like the most about this platform. It has nice integrations and the dashboard is great to guide through all of the different features you can find and use. It takes a while to get use to it but it's not because of the app is more because there is a lot of information to manage when you have work benefits

I like that the availability in using Rippling at any given time is useful to me. Getting on the site freely when I need gives me security of knowing that I can be in control of viewing health insurance and hours information. I have yet to get any errors in using the Rippling app.

Rippling's performance has been great, no errors or glitches yet so far. I am confident that Going from one page to the next and all its complexity usage does not lag or times out, it works effectively and efficiently. While using Rippling and other apps it does not tend to slow it down, works great. No complaints.

Because when I seek help it is readily available and the answers we get are competent. It is so frustrating to call companies and get an answering machine or to get transferred 12 times to only leave a message. With Rippling when someone assists you it is timely and more importantly it is competent help. I rate competence higher than kindness because anyone can be a kind buffoon but I need someone who may be correct and direct but also handled my problem and efficiently directed me on how to fix it.

It's really easy to implement in comparison to other tools or applications. Different key points are easily configured and implemented as per need, having different configurations in systems. Implementation is something which binds the different parameters of an organization in a single row. Implementation of rippling is much easier, quicker, and error free than any other software. I recommend it strongly!

The user experience is seamless--text-based with no app installation necessary. Employees don't want to download another app, so the text-based approach removes that friction point. I really like the SMS campaign feature in Eqo because it facilitates program socialization and targeted hiring in understaffed areas through team-specific SMS campaigns. My customers have been very impressed with the implementation process and support. They aren't just implementing the tech but advising on strategy and adoption.

Rippling is easier to use. It has everything you need in one place. You don’t have to jump from one app to the next to get everything done. It is a one-stop shop. I think this might be the smoothest transition with Rippling I have experienced.

I can go on here and see all my hours and pto plus health benefits. I like to have the work handbook handy to refer to legal things. How to work my role within it's limits. Being able to put in my hours and view when they are approved is a huge benefit for me.

• The peace of mind that comes from having the system periodically report the status of a payment reduces the number of queries and potential inconveniences to the employer.
