A Modern, Visually Appealing & Easy to Use Intranet
What do you like best about the product?
Simpplr is visually appealing with a modern social-media feel, which makes it attractive and easy to use for our employees. Everything from pages to Word docs to PDFs are searchable, and there's very little learning curve to for users to jump in and get going. From an admin and content creation perspective, it's fairly intuitive for those who have blogged or used WYSIWYG editors before - no coding experience required. Changes can easily be made on the fly - and even quickly reversed if you don't love what you see. There's also version tracking for pages and documents, which is an important feature for our organization.
What do you dislike about the product?
Minor quibbles - because it's a 3rd party system, not everything is customizable. For example, we couldn't change a tab called "Apps" to "Links," which would have been more familiar for our employees. Also, a strange feature we only discovered after launching is that the search bar within a site is only functional for admins or site managers. Users can see it, but they get no results if they use it. We had to teach them to always use the global search bar. Not a huge issue, but an odd quirk.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had an outdated intranet that lacked search capabilities and was difficult to use. We also relied heavily on emails for internal communications. Moving to Simpplr gave us such robust search capabilities we were able to consolidate all of our knowledge documents in one place. Also, the ease of making updates and quickly disseminating them to staff has helped us cut down on emails. It's an ongoing process but we're excited about all of the opportunities Simpplr offers us - and we've gotten a lot of positive feedback from our employees on how much of an improvement it is.
Great Platform
What do you like best about the product?
Having a single source of truth that can easily be shared across teams is a real game-changer for us. It was incredibly easy to create content and to onboard other teams to get theirs uploaded as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Our only real issue was the heavy reliance on images to drive content, as we don't have a huge repository of options for this.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Prior to launching with Simpplr we had business-critical information in a lot of different places, and this tool helped gather everything into one elegant solution.
An intranet that really engages
What do you like best about the product?
We chose Simpplr for its auto-governance features, search , analytics and easy-to-navigate layout, but we ended up wowed by its "feed" feature that really engages employees and facilitates two-way communication and connection. The feed also makes it easy to make more sophisticated internal communication plans: For instance, after publishing a story you can have leaders or peer influencers share the story to their followers, adding their commentary on top it and encouraging engagement.
What do you dislike about the product?
We're only a couple weeks into the platform, but there isn't anything we dislike at the moment.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem we're solving is a lack of governance, an outdated platform and an analytics blackhole. Within 2 weeks of launching our new Simpplr platform, we'd had 94% of our workforce log onto our new intranet and they were creating and sharing their own content, in addition to engaging with our official internal comms--and we have the analytics to actually show it to leadership.
Most organized implementation ever!
What do you like best about the product?
I work as an internal Project Manager at my company. I support business teams throughout our company with project execution, frequently implementing new applications and working with vendors. Working with Simpplr was, hands down, the best implementation experience I've had. Their plan doesn't miss a step, and made my job so easy. They empower the business to learn and take part in the implementation process, and the implementation team at Simpplr had an answer and supporting resources for every question our team could dream up. As far as implementation goes Simpplr gets it so right and makes it very easy for their customers to set up a great intranet quickly. I'll also add that the application itself is fantastic. It's easy to use and our entire team started using it immediately. We love our new intranet.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, this was a dream implementation, I have no complaints.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our goal in implementing Simpplr was to consolidate our employee communications and to have a place where our staff could connect socially in a virtual environment. Although, we were planning to implement this regardless it has a been a great plus to have our site up and running while we're all still working remote.
Good Corporate Intranet Platform
What do you like best about the product?
Simpplr is easy to use. Employees had no issues picking it up. Implementation was straightforward and the Simpplr team walked us through everything step-by-step.
What do you dislike about the product?
While there are customizable components of the platform, its general feature set is pretty rigid and standardized.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating a single source of truth for employee communications. This platform was the one that could help us best do this.
Simpplr Makes My Life Simpler
What do you like best about the product?
Simpplr is easy to use, manage, and love! Some of the features I love include analytics, customizable tiles, out of the box solutions, must-read content, private and unlisted sites, content governance, and much much more.
What do you dislike about the product?
There have been a couple technological glitches since implementation, but other than that it's been a smooth ride. Duplicate sites, event calendar, and email notifications have given us a bit of trouble, but nothing too damaging.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before Simpplr our company did not have a single landing spot for information, corporate information, and other needed information. Simpplr is helping us pull our company together as one team while dispersing information in a much more effective way.
Zoox/Simpplr Intranet Review
What do you like best about the product?
The best features are the social elements of the intranet, the possibility to interact with other employees, the organization of the sites and content, the flexibility of customizing profiles and the administration tools which makes it 100 times easier to manage the application schedulers and integrations.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some features that are currently in the backlog for Simpplr, such as being able to persists a cname URL and the ability to select hyperlink colors intranet-wise, but these are pretty minor!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Simpplr provides the possibility for a one-stop shop intranet for all employees. It helps improve communication across the organization and departments and focuses on the user experience.
Impactful software that will help our company stay connected and streamline communication.
What do you like best about the product?
One of the best things about Simpplr is how easy it is to use. There isn't much of a learning curve because it incorporates a lot of elements similar to social media platforms everyone is already familiar with.
What do you dislike about the product?
We only just launched Simpplr with our company, so right now, I don't have any comment on what I don't like. Our users seem to love it so far.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We've always had a really great company culture, but our company is growing, so we needed something to help streamline communication with employees and maintain our culture, especially since our employees are spread out across the country.
Simpplr - Great User Experience
What do you like best about the product?
It is very easy to use and learn. The user interface is appealing and draws in the user.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish there were more formatting options for the text.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Employee Engagement and communication. Our utilization and adoption is fantastic, so we are achieving both.
Easy implementation!
What do you like best about the product?
Setup was very simple. Content creators of all skill levels have been able to create and manage sites. Our users have been very receptive to the initial launch.
What do you dislike about the product?
Unable to implement with existing Salesforce org. I understand why that is the case (our company deals with PHI and it would be a security risk). It has made login somewhat challenging for certain users because they now have two Salesforce logins.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating a much easier to navigate central hub for our entire company. Prior to Simpplr, we had been using a Google Site for a pseudo intranet with tons of random shared folders and docs in Google Drive. It was very difficult for users to find specifically what they were looking for. Now we are able to funnel users towards the information that they need in a very easy to view format.
