Bloomfire vs. Lytho Workflow

I think Bloomfire is most appropriate in a medium to large business entity since onboarding can be difficult without an organized tool to prioritize job functions. It would be most well suited for positions that incorporate data analytics/reporting and consist of regular deliverables. So for example: if an accountant wants to learn how to compile a cash flow statement but also has to turn it into a client-facing presentation, there are resources specific to internal accounting and then separate resources (also in the accounting vertical) for data visualizations and client reporting.

I don't have much to compare Lytho Workflow workflow to, but I'd say it gets the job done for my small department. I can't imagine a world where we didn't have it. There are times when the software does not work as expected though. For example, if one of the marketing managers archives a request after it has been accepted, it will disappear from the request queue but remain as a job in my job queue. From there, I have to archive it again. The same goes for comments - if someone makes a comment on the request, it does not appear on the job, nor am I notified. I have to click through to the request, from the job to see those comments.

• Quickly reach out to whatever employee segment you want to reach by posting a topic and it will send a notification to everyone in that group with a link to the posting.
• Bloomfire saves all of the previous posts so in your free time you can go to the site, and explore the various range of topics others have posted. The information on there will only be as good as the person posting it, but it will be people within your company and industry posting it. So it will always be helpful.
• Bloomfire is a place to be noticed by your peers. Have a great topic you want to express, my company allows all to post there as long as we keep it professional. So you can share your ideas or experiences in a safe and productive manner. But we do have some fun on there too!

• Crashes - The workflow web page crashes very frequently and I've never been able to figure out what the cause is. Refreshing the page always fixes this issue.
• Proof Approvals - I wish there was a way to remove all people from the route that have approved and resend to those who haven't. Reviewers who have already approved often do not want to see future proof revisions coming through their inbox. It would be nice to have this as an option, rather than having to create a new revision and manually removing all that have approved before sending.
• A more personalized dashboard - My dashboard is more geared towards someone who is requesting or reviewing jobs, rather than someone who is completing them. As a result, I rarely use this page.

I am with a different employer now days where training is not part of my job description. If I ever found myself doing E-Learning again, Bloomfire would be the first interface I would recommend.

Bloomfire is an easy-to-use platform for posting information and asking questions of my peers. It also has a user-friendly search capability. Yet like any other CMS, the secret to success rests in such items as the ability to use metadata to tag content or posts, and Bloomfire provides a wide range of options to make posting content and subsequently searching for it.

I have not needed to pose questions to the support team yet, as it is a very simple piece of software to use, however, its help documents and the bot ready to answer questions let me know I am in good hands. The help center could load a little quicker, but that's my only complaint.

- Easier to use - Easier to upload new information - Easier to search - Easier to share Bloomfire search-ability means much less work trying to organize and categorize documents. That means easier upload, which means more information gets stored there and used.

By consolidating the requests, project management, and proofing without features we didn't need like invoicing it was an easy fit for us. We were able to quickly develop a comprehensive workflow and the gains to efficiency were immediate. Pricing was competitive (at least at the time) and the implementation was very good as well.
