User Testimonials
	Firstup (Dynamic Signal + SocialChorus)	Hootsuite Amplify
Likelihood to Recommend	Firstup (Dynamic Signal + SocialChorus) Firstup is a well-suited solution for companies that would like to spread brand awareness and get employees to be their number one ambassadors. Employees like to share/brag about the company they work for so why not use them as a driving force in spreading brand awareness! Incentivized Anat Hazanchuk Sr. Social Media and Content Manager Read full review	Hootsuite There needs to be a cost-benefit analysis to determine the value we are getting. Once we are able to see that the advocacy is resulting in sales/registration we can provide a more accurate score. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Firstup (Dynamic Signal + SocialChorus) Intuitive, easy-to-use templates for posts, newsletters and email notifications. Consistent upgrades and innovation that keeps the tool current with other apps. Flexibility on how users can use the tool (i.e. comments, sharing photos, etc.) This decision is left to each organization, individually.

Cons	Firstup (Dynamic Signal + SocialChorus) We'd love to see a calendar added that would show key upcoming dates. It would be awesome if the Message feature had a drop-down directory you could scroll through vs. requiring you to type a few letters before the potential names came up.
