    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!

    Best suited for automated HR process and effective employee engagement. Not so appropriate for companies who have very specific processes and require customizations that are out of the ordinary.

    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.

    • Zimyo has room for integrations.
    • Layout is simple but can be better in terms of design, looks a bit like too simple.
    • LinkedIn Integration and offer letter management.

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