Limeade ONE vs. Workday Peakon Employee Voice

Limeade ONE is great for office-based work staff where the staff has easy access to a computer. It has struggled a bit in our manufacturing locations where associates don't have time during the workday to utilize the application and may not have a smartphone or computer to access the platform outside of work.

Peakon is a great solution whether you are thinking of pulsing your employees weekly, monthly, or even yearly. The solution provides great dashboards, easy reporting, on the fly segmentation creation, and ways to really dive deep into your people data. I think it's a bit expensive for very early-stage companies, so I would love to see them create a startup/early-stage version or pricing because it has become an invaluable tool for any size company.

• Peakon looks beautiful and feels very light, which is comforting when you're (potentially) giving negative feedback and feel anxious. The emails are friendly and the survey is super clean.
• The surveys are very easy to navigate. You can answer as many or as few questions as you like, skipping forward and backward, and choosing to provide comments when you want. It's low pressure and feels flexible.
• The HR department is able to respond to your comments. You can then have a back and forth conversation while remaining anonymous. This really helps employees further explain and contextualize their survey comments without identifying themselves personally.

• Once the top incentive level is hit, there's little incentive to continue to use the platform until the next program year.
• Continue to improve and expand the library of activities so that you can explore new things in subsequent years.

• The only major issue is the integrations factor. I wish there was more integrations work from HRMS core systems or even other dashboard solutions.

Our experience with Virgin Pulse was somewhat hindered as we still had much of our legacy system from Preventure when VP purchased them. The technology and activities that Limeade offers are in a whole different league compared to VP.

SurveyMonkey is a great survey tool that also allows responders to stay anonymous, but I think Peakon is more effective for corporate feedback. It offers more reports and analytics specifically for HR and feels more professional. We often use SurveyMonkey for more lighthearted surveys (e.g., what to eat for team lunch) while keeping Peakon for employee feedback.

Incentivized

• Increased engagement
• Ability to access information independently
• Relevant articles and news help employees be engaged

• When we moved to WFH due to COVID, we use Peakon a regular basis to understand what employees are thinking. We lost the serendipity of talking to people during chance encounters in the office, Peakon has replaced those conversations.
• We saw an incredible year in spite of COVID, while there are so many internal and external factors contributing to that success, we can see that having engaged and happy employees has an impact on our business. We also see what happens when they are not engaged or happy.
