    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!

    Tremendous
    Tremendous is well suited for businesses giving gift cards to employees as a reward or to research participants as thanks/compensation for their time. It's not like a cash sharing software between friends. It is also best for relatively small amounts of money because the sender runs the risk of sending the reward to the wrong email

    • 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.

    • We do not have insight into whether a customer has redeemed a reward or not
    • Unredeemed rewards kind of go into a void, we cannot get funds back for unclaimed rewards

    They have a lot of rules around spending. You cannot use the card for funds that are greater than the amount you want to spend and do a split payment transaction. This makes it virtually impossible to use all of the funds on the card

    I can't really answer this as the platform was already in place when I took my current role.

    Tremendous allowed us for more customization to the email and landing page, Rybbon had their own branding on the email and page which was something we did not want. One of the main selling points for us with Tremendous was the ability to use our own firm's email domain. This allowed us to send an email coming from our firm, so our clients and prospects recognized the domain.

    Return on Investment
    Firstup (Dynamic Signal + SocialChorus)
    • We look at the earned media revenue tool that Firstup has, and we have earned media of over $4000 most months. Amazing!
    • We have been recognized by peers, clients, and partner agents who say they always see our Hilldrup news pop up on social media!
    • Marketing has been able to control the voice of the brand while amplifying the message to new audiences - amazing!

    • The fact that it's free to use means Tremendous has had a very positive ROI on our research operations. We've gained much and lost nothing.
