Use Cases and Deployment Scope

At LCC International University, we use GoVida as a tool to primarily [to] improve employee wellness and health habits through exciting challenges, seminars, and wellness events. The application is used across the whole organization. For us, it aids in addressing the following problems:

- Employee Wellness

- Employee Burnout

- Employee Engagement

Pros

Customer service
Variety of options to improve wellness
Multi-dimensional
Flexible
Leaderboard

Cons

Improvement of synchronization with less-popular step-trackers

Likelihood to Recommend

GoVida has many options to choose from, so the user has a lot of freedom and variety for improving their health habits.

The main function is step-tracking. This function comes with multiple challenges (individual and team-challenges) that motivate the user to complete their daily step count.

The application also has a "Mind" section. I find that this is quite an original feature that separates GoVida from other step trackers and elevates it [as] a wellness application. The "Mind" section has a variety of audio sessions that are helpful for meditation, mindfulness, and overall psychological wellbeing.

Lately, GoVida added an Emotion tracker where users are able to rate their daily emotional wellbeing. The ratings are anonymous. With this feature, we are able to see the overall employee emotional wellbeing and make institution-wide improvements based on that.

Lastly, GoVida offers a leaderboard. At our particular university, we have quite a few employees that are motivated by competition, so even though GoVida aims for a holistic approach toward wellness, we are happy that it also gives the option to compete [with] those who need it.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

It is being used by our department and they brought it in to help with our mental and physical well-being as well as bringing a feeling of togetherness and community at a time when we were working remotely. Now that we are coming back into the office, we are still using it and really enjoying the functionality it brings as it is helping to keep us fit and keep us engaged with the rest of the team

Pros

The challenges are excellent
The exercise tracking is great
Getting rewards for doing the activities is a great motivator

Cons

The mental well-being content is good but I'd like to see more of it
I'd like to see more functionality that helps the interaction with other colleagues during the challenges. We use Whatsapp at the moment which is ok but would be good if it was wrapped into the app

Likelihood to Recommend

It is well suited to teams of people that are busy because it helps provide a welcome diversion from work in a way that motivates me to work harder when I'm working because I feel less stressed and I feel that the management are making an effort to support my well-being.

I don't think it would be needed in a company that only has 2 people in it because they wouldn't make use of the challenges

The only thing I have to say is that IU has to go into the app, then come out, and go back in for 'how am I feeling today' to come up each day.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

GoVida is used across the whole business and we implemented to improve health and well-being.

Pros

It encourages activity for those who are normally sedentary
It encourages mindfulness
It encourages healthy eating

Cons

None that I can think of

Likelihood to Recommend

GoVida is a great platform for encouraging well-being overall within a workplace. It is fantastic at creating the feeling of doing well and getting better via gentle nudges along the road. It isn't harsh and in no way makes people feel lazy but encourages participation. We have rewards that work well for our team.

We have been using GoVida accross the business for over 2 years now and it really motivates me and my colleges to think about our health and makes a great topic of conversation at work. I have really enjoyed the team event and the rewards we can earn from GoVida mean that my family support me too.

Pros

Rewards for working out
Motivates me
Great topic of conversation

Cons

I sometimes forget to open the app in the morning and accept daily challenges

Likelihood to Recommend

[GoVida is] well suited if walking a lot during the day. Difficult since covid to get rewards for attending the Gym.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

[GoVida] can be used by the entire [organization], currently we have a company wide challenge and have split everyone into teams. It’s a great ice-breaker and is great at bringing people together and bringing out the competitive side.

Pros

Improved employee morale
Improved communication with team
Improved productivity

Cons

I think there could be more notifications to encourage opening the app, testing different features and syncing with your steps.
I think there is a bug where the classes box is clicked when attempting to check in.

Likelihood to Recommend

[GoVida is well suited for a] company wide challenge and split the employee base into teams to improve relations and communication.
