TINYpulse is an employee surveying and feedback tool. It includes employee recognition, coaching, and performance tracking functionality.
Well-suited for companies looking to get better feedback from employees. It's probably perfect for my organization (around 80 employees) because our COO can respond directly to our concerns. It might be less effective for larger organizations, but I can't speak much to that.
The only area of improvement may be streamlining the emails they send out after the surveys have been tabulated and the information is available. We usually just want the report and because Energage does such a good job compiling it via the dashboard and the graphics, our company doesn't have a need for further tools and promotion tips. It can get confusing when there's too many options to share and/or best practices to follow.
Originally, requests for feedback ("360s") were not customizable, and employees didn't feel the pre-written questions were particularly helpful. TINYpulse has since changed this format so we can either use default questions or create our own.
TINYpulse provided the most-competitive pricing of all vendors considered, with the greatest flexibility of use with desktop, mobile app, and operating system. While customer support proposed by others appeared to be closer to "live" or real-time, with closer to the 24/7 kind of environment in which we live/work in today, budget was a driving factor for us.
It's helped with recruiting. Candidates see the Top Workplaces icon on our website or they read the article and they trust that we really are a Top Workplace based on the information Energage helped compile.
The impact internally is immense. Our leadership pulls direct data and comments from Energage's surveys and uses it to inform their decisions and goals. The leadership also cites what our employees told us to explain why we're doing certain things as a company. There's always alignment shared when possible so employees know their feedback matters.
We have been able to implement a number of suggestions that our employees have posted on TINYpulse, things that our management may not have thought of but made a positive difference.
We are able to identify pain points before they become a systemic problem, and can act to correct our shortcomings or adjust procedures to remedy the situation.
Sending Cheers to employees is a real morale booster for everyone.
