Brightidea vs. Qmarkets

I believe Brightidea is a great tool for any business where collaboration is encouraged and open innovation is a priority. It enables cross functional teams and audiences to share ideas and connect on topics they may not normally collaborate on

Incentivized

Qmarkets is suited for the collection, evaluation, and selection of ideas - the whole ideation process is managed

• Provides a canvas to create whatever is needed to engage the audience in the open innovation session. such as allowing video/picture inserts, custom design, document inserts, etc).
• Allows users the ability to easily share their ideas and/or comments, while also building on others ideas.
• Enabling an end to end experience for the user to offer ideas or share thoughts, allows voting and competition, prioritizes ideas based on popularity from audience, and provides the ability to track implementation/ROI of top ideas.

Incentivized

• Highly professional software.
• Adaptable to various processes and scopes.
• Excellent support.

• The backend project management portion could be easier to utilize and connect idea from inception to execution.
• In a large organization having multiple approvers and viewers of the prioritized ideas can be challenging.
• Would love to see a robust report and measurment tool that connects the full story of the idea.

Incentivized

• Reports are excellent but are more content-oriented than people-oriented, and for me as a consultant, the "people" info is important.

Intuitive and easy to set-up and use

The support I've received from them has never been anything less than accessible, compliant, and professional

Other competition products were evaluated but Qmarkets had products that were 100% fit for our customer's needs and the Qmarket team has excellent Tech team which we didn't see in the competition that we and our client evaluated. Also, the Q products are very flexible compared to others in the market.

• Within the 1st year we had over 20,000 unique users sign on and participate in an idea challenge.
• Significant cost savings opportunities identified, while also gaining client advocates and repeat business.
• Increase efficiency and effectiveness, and improve quality, while reducing cycle times.

Incentivized

• No Negative impact.
• The functionality and user operability of products has been very easy.
• ROI is yet to be seen as implementation is due in a weeks time.
