I think this would depend on what they are looking for in an intranet service and how big their company is.

As one
of the great intranet software, Jostle has always helped me in staying
connected with the team members from different departments. The app makes me
feel so much at ease because I know what is happening in all the departments
and if everything is going in the right direction or not. My recommendation is
that this software is very appropriate for growing businesses where people are
not aware of their surroundings and their colleagues' work status. Jostle will
send them notifications on emails whenever they need to be updated regarding
any specific thing that is why I highly recommend this application.

Pros
IC Thrive (formerly Intranet Connections)
  • Ability to customize the platform to really fit the needs of what you're looking for. How we use it is different than how another organization uses it.
  • It's easy to get ahold of technical support and ask questions from a high level (i.e. about how to make it work better for the organization) or a granular level (i.e. how to improve something for a specific employee).

Jostle is the tool that is fulfilling our all requirements, I really appreciate the way this is going and giving services. It has smart features. Moreover, Instant messaging is also
available on Jostle. Jostle has made my life very easy as it has given me the
ability to curate all decisions be it minor or be it major to discuss online on
the dedicated platforms. The user interface is very simple and resembles Social
Media a lot so as nowadays more people are becoming used to Social Media so
this can also be a great factor in contributing to Jostle’s success.

Return on Investment
IC Thrive (formerly Intranet Connections)
  • The workflow when building forms doesn't allow for when someone is out of the office for it to flow to another manager. We would have to create a drop-down and have the employee select who it needs to go to for approval. Would be nice if the systems administrator could be able to change the approver and then resend the item for approval. At this time the employee would have to resubmit or the admin would have to email the current item for approval or we would have to impersonate this individual to approve.

  • Another main feature that I like the most is their Activity Feed feature, it helps our employees to stay connected with each other easily without any restriction of location.
  • The search bar is helping to manage the breeze easily. I have been very much impressed by their support staff.
