Very positive experience using Simpplr for our intranet. Easy, and helps with Salesforce adoption.

  • February 20, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We use Salesforce chatter for communication, so we like that the feed can be integrated on any site page. The setup of Simpplr was easy, the support has been excellent, and using Simpplr has really helped with our Salesforce adoption. I can build apps in SF and link to them from articles on the intranet, and the user can seamlessly get to a salesforce page because they are logged into Simpplr.
What do you dislike about the product?
We wish the calendar were available in a month view, instead of just event views.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Again, the integration between Salesforce and Simpplr makes it easy to move reluctant users seamlessly into salesforce apps by linking from articles and procedures. We use the Simpplr people page as our directory, and keep all our business procedures and employee manuals on the intranet. The search functions are great; makes it easy for our employees to find what they need.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Highly recommended. We all love it! We've been able to distribute the maintenance of the intranet, since the product is so easy to use.

Nice intranet with an easy UI

  • February 18, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's a very clean tool that's easy to use. The search works great. And it seems to do a good job keeping information relevant and up-to-date. Previous intranets always got stale. I also like that it integrates with Salesforce--it's easier to get adoption.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm looking forward to the updated branded mobile app that is coming out shortly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's a good place to streamline all of our company communications (i.e. executive updates, HR benefits, etc.). And I get a better sense of what's going on in some of our other offices.

Simpplr helped us manage communication and culture as we grew

  • February 15, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like Simpplr’s user experience for its intuitive usability and design and its prebuilt integrations to with some of the other key technologies we use (e.g., Salesforce, Workday, and Okta).
What do you dislike about the product?
To really get the most value from Simpplr, your organization needs to be committed to it so enablement needs to be focused on and a team dedicated towards it during the first few months.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our Simpplr initiative was focused at addressing the following issues: (i) employees were feeling more disconnected, and (ii) we needed a platform to serve as the single source of truth for company information. Simpplr has helped us improve internal communication to our global employee base, even as we have continued to grow. In addition, employees that span different departments, locations, and tenures are much better connected, as we continue to expand.

Great intranet with an easy UI

  • February 14, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's just really easy. Easy to find stuff from lunch menus to HR forms. Easy to locate people in other departments. Easy to see what's going on in other offices. Easy to post content.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish we better utilized the Box/Simpplr integration. It would be great to search all of our Box content through this search as well. I know the integration exists and we haven't implemented.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's nice to have a place where people can go to connect with coworkers they don't know very well. It makes it easier to approach coworkers when I know a little bit more about them - both at personal level and within work.

A great intranet to foster our company culture

  • February 08, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The Simpplr intranet, internally branded VitalConnect, immediately established itself as our virtual watercooler. Employees are trained to log in and enjoy the site with their morning cup of coffee. It’s where we announce new sales, call out employee wins, celebrate anniversaries, and broadcast critical company-wide announcements. Employees noted a stronger sense of community and understand how their contribution fits into the bigger picture.

I like that we’ve been able to distribute the intranet’s maintenance by spreading site ownership across departments. This has helped improve the company’s interdepartmental transparency. We also administer mandatory HIPAA training and updates through Simpplr. Additionally, our CEO stays connected to the growing employee base with his own site. He’s able to share his perspective on the market, congratulate teams on their hard work, and give employees insights about how he’s spending his time.

VitalConnect also offers employees a popular “non-work related” site, the VitalWare Playground, where users can engage and connect through activities such as sharing recipes, posting family photos, and even running fantasy football pools. It’s a great way to humanize the work experience and help co-workers bond across geographic and departmental boundaries. VitalConnect is among VitalWare’s most successful and critically used software deployments. More than 85 percent of employees use the site at least weekly.
What do you dislike about the product?
There really isn't anything that we dislike about Simpplr. However, it does seem that when they are developing updates, they seem to be most compatible with Window's 10 , and the majority of our employees are still on Windows 7.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Remote employees have noted, unsolicited, that Simpplr actually makes them feel as if they’re in the office. And the intranet has nearly eliminated company-wide emails.

It has also greatly helped with the onboarding process by giving new employees a starting place to ramp up and connect with others across the organization. We actually made posting a profile picture mandatory because it has helped employees get better acquainted.

Net-net: VitalWare’s employee attrition is far below industry averages. Employee engagement scores are high. And VitalWare’s Glassdoor ratings are above 4 out of 5. While this is not fully attributable to one software platform, the technology plays an extremely important role in our cultural engagement strategy.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Simpplr is a great way for you to engage your employees, especially if you have a workforce that includes remote workers!

Hub 2.0 with Simpplr

  • January 31, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to navigate and very user friendly. Everything you need in one space. It also shows what events are upcoming and any holidays that Pure may have. Pure also uploads all the company's all hands meeting and any videoed meeting/chats to the site for others who may not have been able to join to viet.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing that I've encountered to dislike what Simpplr has done for Pure's Hub 2.0.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The Hub was created for Pure employees to interact with other employees and to gather information on the company/work easier. Everything in one spot.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I believe Simpplr is making work life easier for the company by allowing it's employees to be interactive and in the know with what's going on with the company. Any documents that an employee would need can be added onto the site.

A great social intranet for the enterprise

  • November 07, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to share, disseminate, and collaborate around information for the entire enterprise. The ability to have distinct interest groups and have employees collaborate and share information. Someone non-technical can setup an entire communications portal in as short as a few hours.
What do you dislike about the product?
Adoption. As great as Simpplr is, it takes a bit of effort in gaining adoption. However, that is not the fault of the product. People are used to what they're used to. It hard to leave email behind!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Employee communication. Social collaboration amongst groups. Social intranet.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great product to consider if you have Salesforce, and all of your users are on Salesforce.

Thoughts on Simpplr

  • November 07, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The engagement with customers is definitely a winning strategy. As a customer it is important to feel like you have a voice when it comes to the product, and the Simpplr team definitely is receptive to feedback. This is evident by the long list of release notes with each new release.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't pinpoint it, but the look and feel definitely has a legacy feel to it. It doesn't seem as modern as most applications.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Communication. As a rapidly growing company, its important for new and existing employees to be aware of processes and policies. We leverage Simpplr to help distribute that information via integration with Box.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Simpplr is really easy to use as a user, and as an admin. If you're looking to adopt an effective intranet solution, Simpplr can accommodate rather quickly.
