Considered Both Products	Employee Advocacy by Sprout Social Verified User Manager Chose Employee Advocacy by Sprout Social We also evaluated LinkedIn Elevate several years ago. The integration between Employee Advocacy and Sprout Social's primary platform were appealing to us since we already were established with Sprout Social when we decided to add Employee Advocacy by Sprout Social.

Gita Sukhraj Content Marketing Manager Chose Employee Advocacy by Sprout Social It was similar in that it helped us push prewritten messages out to our team, but the UX/UI was far more dated and not as intuitive. It's mobile app also wasn't very useful; made it difficult to edit messages and would constantly need you to log back in. The two things GaggleAMP… Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	Employee Advocacy by Sprout Social
Likelihood to Recommend	Sprout Social It's a good fit for our recruiters because they are always looking for good info about our organization to share. It's a small but engaged group that takes advantage of having a niche topic and team. It also works well for huge company news, such as winning an award. Items that all employees know about and a large percentage of them are excited about perform best. Niche topics that are only relevant to one or a few small teams don't perform as well because employees not involved in that work are less likely to share.

Pros	Sprout Social Scheduling out content / shares for the week Providing a quick glance leaderboard of top content shares across departments Easy to learn and leverage user interface (UI) Incentivized CB Christina Bouwens Sales Enablement Systems Specialist Read full review
Cons	Sprout Social Sprout to Bambu integration is not what was depicted in trial and is not used because of this Missing functionality: LinkedIn tagging Missing functionality: posting videos Missing functionality: posting something without a link. Example: picture from an event or community outreach Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Sprout Social The program has given some early wins, and there are very active employees who have truly integrated sharing from Employee Advocacy by Sprout Social into their regular social media activity. It would be a huge lift to migrate people to a different platform. While we'd love to grow our program, there's already enough value to justify keeping an employee advocacy program.

Usability	Sprout Social It's fairly user friendly when it's working correctly. There are more instances of bugs and glitches compared to other tools, including Sprout Social's primary platform. There's also an exception for Facebook personal profiles where that is more clunky to share on compared to LinkedIn, X or even Facebook Business Pages. I'd also like more customization around photo formats/sizes and email templates. Despite those negatives, the end user can share quickly and easily, which is vital to sustaining user participation. Facebook can be clunky, but most of our employees share on LinkedIn, which is quick, easy and smooth. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Sprout Social It was similar in that it helped us push prewritten messages out to our team, but the UX/UI was far more dated and not as intuitive. It's mobile app also wasn't very useful; made it difficult to edit messages and would constantly need you to log back in. The two things GaggleAMP had over Bambu however was more comprehensive analytics and the ability to automatically push out social posts Incentivized Gita Sukhraj Content Marketing Manager Read full review
