Achievers vs. Culture Amp

Achievers is well suited as a rewards and recognition platform - which is what it was designed for. It's less appropriate for a company intranet to share files and documents with one another. Allowing users to do both on one platform would be a great solution for bridging the gap between corporate communication and rewards.

Culture Amp is a great tool for employee surveys, and has been able to scale with us for 5+ years. It's customizable and helps provide rich data on how employees are feeling so that we can continue to use that feedback to improving our company culture quarter over quarter.

• It promotes employee-to-employee recognition.
• It provides a way for Management to periodically reward employees for their efforts.
• It provides an incentive for great work as some of the Achievers rewards are incredible!

• Provides survey templates with benchmark data from all other users, grouped by industry and company size.
• Very user-friendly analytics of the post-survey results- easy to apply filers, graphs, charts, heat maps, great visuals. The data and charts are also very easy to extract in several different formats such as Excel, PDF, and CSV.
• Extremely easy to share results with leaders/managers, apply security permissions for only parts of the data if you don't want to share full company results.
• They also have a library with very helpful/guided PowerPoint and storytelling templates for preparing a high-level overview of results and presentations.

• Relevance of rewards catalog
• Exchange rate of catalog items
• Would be nice to see deeper integration with company intranets

• For some reason, you need to sign in every time you reopen the browser
• It would be nice to have a notebook section where I can follow up on the courses I'm undergoing and the tools I'm learning, and to be able to share that progress with colleagues and on social media
• If it incorporates all the organization, Culture Amp could offer a culture map so strategic improvements can be made for the organization

So I would give it a 10 once it is integrated, but because the integration was a challenge and I found the customer service to not be concierge level enough, I would have to lower it to an 8 for that reason.

I've used other products like IBM Kenexa as well as about 10 different engagement surveys. I've also used things like SurveyMonkey and Microsoft Forms and Culture Amp for companies that want to make decisions using better data. I would say Culture Amp was far and away better. Culture Amp stacks up and blows the competition away with the level of data you can dig into without being able to see what individuals set.

• Positive: it has increased our company's ability to express gratitude for exceptional work
• Positive: it has increased our company's overall morale
• Negative: rewarding points for gratitude can be expensive depending on the size of the company

Incentivized

• Much easier, faster process for performance evaluations
• Feedback from our first engagement survey informed some initiatives that have fostered a more positive, inclusive culture at our company.
• Feedback from our COVID survey informed initiatives that helped keep our staff more comfortable and increased their trust in our leadership.
