Specific scenarios where Communifire would be well suited to an organisation, would be companies that are people focused and committed to frequent and open communication channels from both the top-down and bottom-up. It also would suit organizations that are committed to providing the staff opportunities to collaborate, share and actively contribute to company initiatives and planning. If these aren't elements of your organization's culture, the system would still work for you or those companies who just want to push information out and have an effective intranet. Communifire would cater to these scenarios just as well and is more than capable of providing that type of simple solution.
It's well suited as a central point for your company. It can easily be branded for your every need and showcase everything that's going on for your users. The mobile app is excellent and gives the full package on your mobile device so that you're always in tune with what's going on at your workplace. There are loads of shoutouts and constant uploads of team photos and excursions. We work for a really active company, so there are always loads getting posted on a day-to-day basis. It breaks up the monotony of staring at a spreadsheet when you see your colleagues having fun while working.
I don't like the name. It's actually not simpler to spell Simpplr. Nice product, daft name.
I'd like to see the people section stand out more and have a bolder collaboration side to it. It would be awesome to collaborate on documents together via a screen share facility.
Video calling directly via Simpplr would be awesome.
Our business depends upon this software to provide information on all aspects of our business. The future of business is a marriage between web site and customer interaction. This software will allow us to move in that direction.
This rating has a caveat - there is always room for improvement, and this team gets it. You always learn from customers how to do things better and easier, so it is a constant learning of how people use the site. Although the search engine is exceptional, most people do not use it as their first line of research. Much of the usability has to do with layout - and is not just a software usability item, so the rating is severely dependent up on the layout/options you choose for your usage. And their team will do anything in their power to get the results and layout you want. The areas that need improvement - and acknowledged by the team - are the administrative tools. There are a ton of options, and it takes a little to learn some of those. For most people, however, this won't be an issue, because the support team will always help you. This is always the case with more power. If there were fewer options it would no doubt be easier, but they give you the keys to all of the cars in the lot; so a little more to learn.
I evaluated a number of platforms. Here's the list: Mango Apps, Jive, Jostle, Zyncro, Bitrix 24, Exo platform, Huddle, Confluence, Hip Chat, Wrike, Hive. Some of the other platforms were really nice but Communifire was the platform that best meet our needs.
Simpplr seemed to have the most modern approach when describing what they want to achieve for the company. It integrates with all the platforms that we use and ticked all of the boxes we were looking for in a modern intranet package. It is significantly more modern and easier to manage than our old Intranet. Our comms team loves it, and feedback has been great from everyone in the company. It's hard to find any negatives about it.
Faster, more consistent onboarding. We host all training materials in an easy-to-access and easy-to-update space.
Better product knowledge = greater sales. We post training information about new products for immediate use by all team members.
Better communication within the store team translates to better customer service. Keeping part time team members up-to-date has always been a challenge. Now they are able to catch up quickly when they get to the store.
