Fond vs. Sparkbay

Fond is a great way to incentivize your sales team during contests and rewards for top performers. Also, a great way to incentivize your partners such as referral sources and clients. I can’t think of anything where it’s not really appropriate as an offering. Great offering for employee vacation perks.

Incentivized

Sparkbay is perfect to keep an eye on the company's engagement level and collect employee general feedback. However it does not replace good one-on-ones.

• Provides a long list of alternatives that make it easy to use your Fond points for the product/services you truly care about.
• Very easy to redeem; select what you want to receive, and click redeem with the points/dollars requested. Typically, gift cards are provided within seconds.
• Regularly rotate offerings so that you have many options throughout the year.

Incentivized

• The software is very easy to work with. We're able to visualize our engagement data in versatile reports, getting key insights for the whole company.
• The team reports save time in knowing right off the bat how your team is feeling without having to wait for the next one-on-one.
• The customer support team is very responsive and we always get answers to our questions.

• When first trying to select a gift card, I'd get an occasional error message, but other than that, it was pretty easy to use.
• Getting more widespread with the types of awards that users can redeem is always a plus!
• This may have changed since I last used Fond, but last time I tried using the system, the total points you had were tucked away in a somewhat obscure location.

Incentivized

• They provided a training session only to managers. I think they should've invited employees too on a voluntary basis.

We have not tested other products that offer such a way to award our employees for doing a fantastic job. Fond has been helping with all the necessary situations and the costs have been quite low. We have not looked into other products. I would recommend going with Fond because we have not found any quality issues with their service.
