Hellora vs. MangoApps

Perfect fit for: Large organizations with over 2,000 employees and a frontline workforce (such as nursing, technicians, waiters, retail associates and drivers). Currently managing referrals on spreadsheets or not truly tapping into the power of employee referrals. As a helpful benchmark to compare to, best-in-class organizations have 40% of their hires come through referrals. Less suitable for: Smaller organizations with less than 2,000 employees, no frontline workforce, and don't face challenges in employee referral management or engagement.

The ability to create optional interest groups for users to join if they like is a great way brings users together, and promote group meet ups and events. The polls ability is always great for taking a quick check of people's availability, we've used it to gauge interest in events and dates. One thing that could be improved is that there is both a messaging and an instant message functionality which seems a little redundant having users being able to message you from different places in separate inboxes, however this may be due to our set up.

• One point I highlighted with their team was the importance of Eqo – Employee Referral Solution for the Frontline being able to function without ATS/HRIS integrations for smoother rollouts and pilot programs — and they've already successfully achieved this capability.

• The messaging system is quite new and doesn't always clear down when read
• The mentions tab can get very busy if you're added to groups
• Lots of customisation can make it overwhelming when editing

The user experience is seamless--text-based with no app installation necessary. Employees don't want to download another app, so the text-based approach removes that friction point. I really like the SMS campaign feature in Eqo because it facilitates program socialization and targeted hiring in understaffed areas through team-specific SMS campaigns. My customers have been very impressed with the implementation process and support. They aren't just implementing the tech but advising on strategy and adoption.

Although, Facebook at Work featured a very modern interface and was praised by many of the beta testers, we primarily didn't choose Facebook at Work due to data security reasons.
