My previous employer used to reward employees by providing payback points but it was not very useful at all. I had a lot of points but on redemption they had little or no value. Also we could use it for a very limited products and services.

Any customer service industry would benefit from implementing Medallia. This is your one-stop-shop for everything surveying and data analytics. I have personally seen this successfully implemented in both software companies and retail. Medallia offers multiple integration options to create connected applications in your business. This is designed as an enterprise solution, smaller businesses may find it difficult to justify the cost.

I think Vantage Circle is a great idea and would recommend all the organizations to use it to motivate and reward their employees. As of now I don't see any scenario which is less appropriate. This initiative definitely works well for larger companies and gives good flexibility to the managers to reward their teams.

Pros
  • It provides a rating for customers to rank how satisfied or not satisfied they are with the service.
  • As an Account Manager, this is a helpful tool to hear customers' experiences and feedback.
  • It helps us manage our next steps because the tools also provide options to note the action taken and if the issue has been resolved or not.

  • It offers redemption Vouchers for most of the merchants like Amazon, flipkart etc.
  • It offers discounts for redirected sites and also provide additional discount on these sites.
  • It provides cashback vantage points on the purchase made using redirection on lot of merchant sites.

Cons
  • Our service model does not provide any ownership over the platform. We have to engage our Medallia Project Team to build surveys, troubleshoot issues, make changes to surveys, reports, and dashboards, resulting in long turnaround times and inefficiency.
  • Medallia charges for both "units" and users. "Units" are defined as named individuals in surveys, but don't have log-in privileges. In our case, they are customer service agents or business consultants that engaged with the client but are not part of our closed-loop case management process or access to the platform.

  • The reward gift card amounts are hardcoded- like 250, 150, etc. There should be an option to self-enter values.
  • More tie-ups with Corporates like Toastmasters International, Corporate Diva, etc for personality development and leadership initiatives.
  • Healthify, Cult, Art of Living, etc. can have tie-ups with Vantage Circle for promoting Employee Wellness as well as good habits. Vantage Circle can serve as a channel for promoting these sites as they are much needed by employees these days.
  • I think we need more tie-ups with schools & pre-schools.
  • Tie-ups with Petrol stations and Investment platforms will also benefit employees.

Usability
Medallia's user interface is simple and intuitive for the end-user. Everyone in our organization from the CEO to store level team members use Medallia to see how we are delivering experiences for our customers. From an administrative side, I would rate Medallia closer to a 7.5, but this part of Medallia is not used as often post-implementation. That being said, you will need a technical/IT resource on staff or will need to pay a premium to a 3rd party to manage it for you.

Alternatives Considered
We are also using Salesforce.com for our customers/clients' records, usage, cases, and such. Like Medallia, we are using Salesforce.com to understand the different account usage based on the services we provide. With the data provided by Salesforce.com, we would understand where we are lacking, which parts we are strong in, and which part of the service needs improvement. All in all, both products are very helpful and, [conveniently,] both are integrated into one another.

I have not used any other products with redemption. Vantage Circle is the only one I used so far & this could be recommended to my peers & friends due to the wide range of options it offers, flexibility & 100 + options to choose from. Also, this is very user friendly & the helpdesk team is also very prompt in response & resolution if any issue arises.

I have never came across a scenario when the Vantage Circle was down or inaccessible and I was not able to redeem the vantage points. The platform is always available and the redemption process is very fast. Never faced the issue with the delay in the redemption of Vantage points.
