User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend
During COVID-19 Tribe [Community Platform] allowed non-profit organizations to utilize the premium features for free which was a great benefit. It has helped us utilize our community in order to answer questions rather than having an abundance of support tickets. Tribe [Community Platform] needs to increase spam filters and bot accounts however, as many of the community's are overrun with them. I manually remove these accounts each week.

We have seen success with information sharing. Giving customers another way to access our resources has been a huge help for them. While we see good engagement numbers there are still some limitations to getting our advocates to complete the 'harder' challenges, like a testimonial or reference

  • It gives us the opportunity to share valuable content with our users. (e.g. first looks at e-books, white papers, announcements of webinars, etc.)
  • It allows us to easily collect feedback and insights from our community members through a variety of activity types.
  • It makes it simple for us to reward our customers for helping each other, and our org, through a rewards store that easily connects to an outside vendor.

Cons
  • Terrible user experience (especially on mobile), way too overclutered
  • Restricted to Tribe's default layout
  • You have to pay $85/m - $249/m to get access to apps, support and remove Tribe logo
  • Looks pretty old and works rather slowly

  • Challenge Digest- I would really like to have the digest have a little more functionality. Such as being able to move around the challenges, maybe move them to the top rather than the bottom.
  • The challenge image/the channel image- This is a feature I would really like to have more user-friendly, especially the crop feature. This feature is not very easy to use, so I have to go to another platform to re-size it. It would be so much easier if I could do this all within Influitive.
  • Sign In Page Profile Fields- I would like to be able to easily rearrange the fields rather than needing to reach out to support so that they can update on their end. While I appreciate that they can do this, it would be easier and faster if I could have the ability to do it myself.
  • Support-is AMAZING! But it would be great if they were more ways that an admin could be able to tweak certain pages rather than waiting till the engineering has time to update. I work on a tight timeline and it's hard to go back to the stakeholders and inform them that what they want can't be handled right away. Again I completely understand that other companies also have urgent requests, but if the admin had more capabilities then we wouldn't have to go to support as much.

I really like working with Influitive and with AdvocateHub. Their support staff is awesome and everyone I have come into contact with at the company has been friendly and supportive. Their corporate interactions with customers model their product philosophy incredibly well. I am very satisfied and trust in their attention to me as a customer.

Usability
Tribe Community Platform is inspired by modern social networks. The team behind Tribe Community Platform has carefully studied the user behavior on online networks to add the best practices to their platform.
Read full review
Overall, Influitive is very easy to use for customers. There's a bit of a learning curve for new admins, but that's only because Influitive isn't always intuitive. The UI is confusing in certain places. I expect something to be in one place, and I find it somewhere else entirely. This is the only reason my usability rank isn't higher

Reliability and Availability
No answers on this topic
Yes, always available and extremely quick. The availability is 10 on 10 for sure. We also have situations where their team might not be working or on a holiday, but if we have an event, they are available and ensure smooth running. That is the beauty of having Influitive take care of you.

Performance
It is fast, easy to configure, and does what it promises. Also, the pricing based on monthly active users is great in comparison to other solution who simply charge based on the registered users.

Influitive AdvocateHub interacts with Blackbaud Champions and is an on-time response system. What I mean by that is once data is entered in Influitive AdvocateHub, it is updated in real time and I can access a computer and the data is there immediately. Sometimes the rewards do not show up right away and I am under the assumption that the delay is caused by an influx of traffic.

Support Rating
The Support and Success team have been highly responsive, in general, most of the queries get answered within a day (sometimes even a few hours). They helped us immensely with brainstorming and suggesting the best practices to set up the community for success during our onboarding period. Some of our suggestions to add certain features were well-accepted and the product team worked on them to solve the issues.

I have never had an issue, small or large, that the Influitive support team hasn't taken seriously and given their attention to. Engagement with support is generally quick and painless. There is also a great user community that is monitored to some degree, and general questions are often already available there or answered in short order.

I was taught and made to show all features that could help me learn more about the platform and this was great hands-on training for me. I picked up things faster than others and did have time to create challenges and make changes while someone was around to supervise and help.

The training was extensive and gave me the knowledge/ skills that I needed in order to implement my advocacy program using Influitive's Advocate Hub. I also meet on a regular basis with my Customer Success Manager. My Success Manager helps give me ideas for my program and helps me ensure that it's successful. Influitive is really invested in my success. They act more like a partner than a vendor

I think some of the key insights I can put forward are all aligned to simply being organized. Make sure you have a well thoughts out plan where you have taken all factors into account. Prioritize the list of deliverables, and make sure you have all the right people alighed to assist internally & externally. If you have a well organized plan you will be set up for success.

It's easy to use and also many of my colleagues recommend Tribe Community Platform which can help us to engage with more of our audience easily.

The challenges were a big factor in our decision. We wanted to have a place users could consume and contribute, and not just browsing articles and moving on. We wanted them to be able to interact with the content, and each other. Many community platforms are just forums. We wanted something way more memorable and robust.

When I stayed using we only had a hundred or so Advocates and now we have 2100+. Pretty amazing product!

Return on Investment

  • Powerful customer engagement.
  • Self-service (deflecting support tickets).
  • Feedback collection.

  • Increased social proof is definitely a big one as this pertains specifically to my role. I've moved my program from collecting testimonials, case studies, success stories, etc. in a somewhat random, happen-stance way to primarily (90%) drawing from our Influitive members.
