User Testimonials
	Firstup (Dynamic Signal + SocialChorus)	Twist: Team Messaging
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	Doist If you have no existing messaging solution, Twist is a viable option. I can't find any reason to recommend it ahead of Slack, Spaces, Teams, Discord, etc. This is one more solution with team messaging functionality, and file sharing, and message archiving/searching. If budget is an issue, Twist can be replaced with a free solution like Discord. Incentivized Ryan Freeman President 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. Incentivized Raleigh Decker Senior Director of Communications Read full review	Doist Does nothing to stand out from other messaging apps Boring Feature parity with everything else on the market Incentivized Ryan Freeman President Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Firstup (Dynamic Signal + SocialChorus) I can't really answer this as the platform was already in place when I took my current role. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Doist Does not stand out at all. I can't think of any reason to select Twist over more popular choices like Slack, Teams, Discord, or Spaces. We use Twist because it forced on us by a specific scenario. Otherwise, we would just use an existing platform (ex: Slack) to handle this communication Incentivized Ryan Freeman President Read full review
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! Incentivized Jordan McDaniel Hinkebein Marketing Director Read full review	Doist None that can be directly tied to Twist We were forced to use Twist in a certain environment, but no change to our ROI Provides one more place to look, one more place to try and find messages.
