Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Drew University uses the PeopleGrove platform as a tool to support alumni and students in building their networks of connections and to explore various career paths.
Pros and Cons
  • Innovation. PeopleGrove regularly works on the platform to provide the best possible experience, tools, and opportunities for the end user and to make administration of the platform as seamless as possible for the administrators of the platform within Drew.
  • Responsiveness. When a support ticket is submitted, PG generally responds within less than a day. That said, support tickets are rarely necessary because PG has so much online guidance available for administrators.
  • Customer Service. PG has an amazing support team for each customer. We have been very happy with the support we receive from our contacts within PeopleGrove.
Likelihood to Recommend
Peoplegrove works incredibly well for our students in the College of Liberal Arts and some Caspersen Graduate School programs (Master in Finance, Data Analytics). It does not function as well for our Theological School students.
Return on Investment
  • Approzimately 1/3 of our students across the CLA and Graduate School are on the platform to use it to explore the alumni network.
  • The platform has features that ease staff burden; gone are the days of manual matching of students and alums. Students can access alums directly -- and when a program is implemented, matching can be done automatically after just noting a few parameters. And reminderr to meet are automatic!
Alternatives Considered
We actually evaluated several companies when selecting the platform in 2017 but most of the other businesses no longer exist. We selected PeopleGrove over Graduway because at the time Graduway appeared cluttered while PeopleGrove was then and has remained "clean."
