User Testimonials
	Virgin Pulse	Walk the Distance
Likelihood to Recommend	Virgin Pulse It's well suited for businesses who are looking for a way to approach employee wellness in a fun and fresh manner. It also helps create a little more connection between teams within the business and across other departments.

Pros	Virgin Pulse AMAZING app Great communications Awesome compatibility across systems/apps Incentivized Brandon Johnson Human Resources Information System Analyst Read full review	Virtual Walk LLC No answers on this topic
Cons	Virgin Pulse Sometimes, my Fitbit and even my Max device would have issues synching. There weren't daily challenges, like the Fitbit. That made me have to use both apps, which was more work. Incentivized Andrea Brooks HR Manager Read full review	Virtual Walk LLC No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	Virgin Pulse DESTROYS the competition. I am so happy that Virgin Pulse took over the capabilities that Gilsbar was in charge of due to Gilsbar 's lack of user-friendly, up to date, technology.

Return on Investment	Virgin Pulse No ROI other than if the people chose not to use it, then the company saves money. [I believe] it causes people's personal information to be disseminated without any concern. [In my opinion,] they are not willing to help ever.
