Hoopla vs. Zoho Motivator

Hoopla is a valuable ally to improve the team's performance. [I]t is a great help for those teams that have defined and [created] clear automated metrics. However, if you are in a team where the metrics are manually evaluated, it can be hard to get excited about the progress, since it will take longer to refresh.

Sales job becomes pathetic at some level when it keeps doing recurring jobs but when the fun-loving and interactive session comes into the picture any kind of job becomes easier and more productive again. When cold calling and lead generation work is needed the feature of Zoho Motivator really nail downs it and provides a booster to any kind of business.

• I wish it ran in a browser and not as a full Chrome app, would have made setup easier.
• It was nice to have default images out of the box, more would have been nice.
• For smaller companies, it can get pricy, quick. We 100% see the ROI to be clear.

Incentivized

• Not much customization in the way of adjusting the appearance of the interface and boxes (such as colors, shapes of the bounding boxes, etc.).
• Needs the ability to add alert notifications via email.
• More permission-based restrictions on what data specific users can see would be nice.

I gave it a 9 because it really is an extremely easy service to use. I would comfortably say that a brand use user could be set up and using it within just a few minutes. Hoopla has been very great about making any new update very user friendly and easy to use and figure out

It saves lot of time and effort using Zoho Motivator especially when you can save and build a template and reuse it.

I have really enjoyed my relationship with our client success manger, Annette. She is always willing to hop on a call for a quick question and is very responsive. She has taken the time to walk me through how to upload new reports, set up new metrics and leaderboards, while also being helpful in setting up a new channel to broadcast

The support surrounding Zoho Motivator is phenomenal! You certainly get what you pay for. The support is always readily available and their team is extremely knowledgable. I have never had any issues with the software and not gotten the concern resolved by their team. Zoho overall is a great team with great backing.

They were both comparable based on the tool and results on how we wanted to Broadcast sales metrics and KPI’s across the entire sales organization. Hoopla just seemed to be much easier to use with fewer bells and whistles. We felt based on the pricing structure and how we planned to display hoopla on monitors throughout our office that it was the best choice to move forward with

We previously used Insightly and Agile CRM, neither of which, at the time, had any tool that was similar enough to Motivator. Both systems had a Deals tracker, however, it was not very 'sales' oriented and had unimpressive filtering options. Motivator is an add-on to Zoho CRM, so the biggest up-sell is that it is integrated with our main CRM, and secondly, the Motivator module has numerous filters/views that can be tailored to our business as we grow.

• We hear music and folks cheer when a "Breaking News" announcement occurs. The community level engagement can not be quanitified
• The contest environments have helped to lead sellers to stay an extra 30 minutes and make 10 more calls just to pass someone up. We see our call volume increased because of it.
• We measure the trails of our solution that our sellers create from leads. We can see an active pursuit of those conversions to be at the top of the leaderboard. More trails, lead to more opportunities, that lead to more sales.

• It has an positive impact on me.
