Eqo – Employee Referral Solution for the Frontline vs. Xoxoday Empuls

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.

Xoxoday Empuls is very much suited for its purpose within our organization - Employee Rewards and Recognitions. Not that it is less appropriate to also be a communication hub for technical/work-related stuff, but I would prefer for it to have its sole purpose for rewards and recognitions. It has gained a special and HAPPY reaction within me, whenever a Xoxoday email pops out of my notification box. "Oh, someone is celebrating their work anniversary! Let me congratulate this person and appreciate all the assistance he/she provided me for the past xx years" or "Someone awarded me? Great! Thank you so much". I wouldn't want Xoxoday to have another purpose than helping me increase my happy hormones.

• 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.

• Nothing in particular.

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.

Sorry. I haven't used any rewarding system.
