Overall Satisfaction with TINYpulse
TINYpulse isn't used organization-wide but different departments elect to use it. We as a smaller group were using it extensively and when there was restructuring, I think our group introduced it to the new larger department we were a part of. We use it to celebrate wins and publicly acknowledge those who go the extra mile, as well as to take the "pulse" of the group by asking weekly questions.
Pros
- Helps increase team camaraderie and rapport by celebrating wins and showing appreciation.
- Helps monitor any team issues by asking (anonymous) questions about company and team dynamics.
- Team members are able to safely provide feedback and make suggestions without concerns of awkwardness or friction.
Cons
- The variety of the question offerings could be greater (this is a picky complaint because there is the option to ask custom questions so there really is not a limit to the variety of questions you can ask).
- We tend to only get about a 50% participation rate and wish it was greater. I'm not sure what TINYpulse could do to encourage more responses however and that's likely up to us/team culture.
- It's an easy way to get feedback and suggestions. I think it contributes to the team culture of wanting to always question and improve.
- It's an easy way to build rapport among teammates and I think contributes to overall sense of team building (especially for a dispersed team).
- It's an easy way to keep your finger on the overall pulse of the team and allows management to be able to quickly address any frustrations or issues before they become bigger concerns.
I haven't used any competitors.
