Planview IdeaPlace is an innovation management product that
enables organizations to run structured, time-bound challenges to generate,
evaluate, and prioritize ideas from employees, partners, or the public.
IdeaPlace applies natural language processing, crowd-based ranking, and expert
review to narrow large volumes of ideas to those with the highest
implementation potential. Selected ideas flow directly into Planview
Portfolios, Planview AdaptiveWork, or Planview ProjectPlace for…

Planview IdeaPlace (IP) stacked up very well against our old product, for example Planview IdeaPlace features and integrations with Microsoft O365 products was major attraction. Our leadership also has a simplification agenda, so the reuse of Planview IdeaPlace for this …

I wasn't on the committee that compared other services or products, but I came into the company soon after to help be an admin.

Many idea management platforms have a large block of similar features. Where Spigit stands apart from a technology perspective is Pairwise and Predictions. They also have new features coming that could be game changers for the industry. Their thought leadership sets them …

Most platforms had a nice UI, this wasn't the differentiator. What it came down to was mostly around we don't know what we'll need in the future:
Market leadership: on stable ground, not going anywhere
Thought leadership: improving the software, inspiring new ways to use it

Spigit is a much more user friendly site than any of the SharePoint products we've tried. Our SharePoint initiatives have failed in the past and I believe it had to do with the look and feel of the site as well as the lack of easy-to-use functionality. Spigit provides a first …

Spigit's reputation scheme and excellent pricing were the primary reasons we went with them in 2010. They also seemed eager to improve the product and meet customers' needs.

Spigit was faster in time to deploy, committed to this type of work, and was a cloud product.

Because Spigit is used by several companies around the world, because Spigit is in the cloud, we don't need technology infrastructure for access. It is fast and scalable.

If you have a community with more than 100 active users, and you're looking for ideas around operational improvements that can be acted on in a 6-12 month window, Spigit will work great, and it's one of the best options out there. If you're trying to customize the platform much, you should plan on paying Spigit's service group to do that for you, because it's not easy to do yourself. If you're looking for ideas that will take more than about a year to implement, Spigit is as good as anyone else because that's a really tough thing to do in an innovation community!

Acknowledges and supports the culture around the problem and market it is trying to serve. Just using the platform won't solve our problem, we need a cultural shift and Spigit has helped support that process.
Customer service - just overall amazing service. Responses are very quickly turned around, they've gone the extra mile many, many times. They are also very open to platform improvements and take feedback very seriously.
As the system administrator, I feel their platform incorporates a great balance of templates, out-of-the-box formatting, etc., and customizable content. In a nutshell, we are able to do what we want but we don't have to spend forever to do it. We can use what they have or we can add in our own design.
There are many ways to configure the solution. Some features make more sense to use at times and should be hidden from users at other times. It would be nice if Spigit had pre-defined configuration templates that reflect the experience and knowledge of their current customer's experience using the software and not just a 1 size fits all base configuration. The good news is with a little experience, these configurations can be created as saved templates.
This rating was given because, Planview is an establish platform used within the organisation for number of years, therefore is a well known platform by the wider business community. Reusing Planview was ease due to user familiarity with the platform, so use of Planview IdeaPlace was logical and reduce the learning curve for users.

Firstly, it is hard to define or describe an ROI for an innovation project (and tool) that is in its experimental phase... But a positive is the impact in the overall engagement of employees, especially in overpopulated structures where it is not easy to "become visible, and the smart ones wait for a chance like this platform.
Where a clear and strong sponsorship is in place, this platform can stimulate ideas that can potentially have a great impact in services improvement
Based on our specific limits in engaging top management, we still cannot see a speed in products or processes improvement.
