Chose GaggleAMP
I have run some of the larger, massively scalable employee advocacy tools, which are not as easy to use, have less useful analytics, and are significantly more expensive.
Chose GaggleAMP
Hootsuite does a good job of planning and scheduling for social media as well as a decent analytics program. However, their usefulness stops there. Hootsuite does not have an integrated feature to automatically pull posts from your website or blog and they do not have a social …
Chose GaggleAMP
A former colleague suggested EveryoneSocial, but I think that GaggleAMP has more industry experience in terms of employee advocacy and social engagement. While it did appear somewhat easier to use, it didn't have all the features and attention to detail that GaggleAMP provided …
Chose GaggleAMP
I wasn't involved in the original consideration of GaggleAMP several years ago, but I am happy with them and have no reason to consider switching vendors at this time.
Chose GaggleAMP
GaggleAMP is perfect for disseminating social media content across a wide range of employees and sectors. GaggleAMP is not meant for a social media management publishing tool. I prefer to have my social media content already created and published on the specific platform and …
Chose GaggleAMP
We looked at the product that LinkedIn offers but it was way more expensive and didn’t have near the features.
Chose GaggleAMP
I haven't used the alternatives to GaggleAMP, it's in a very new category. Alternatives include: Smarp, PostBeyond, and Socialhp.

Chose Sociabble
Sociabble is the more premium and customizable version of Smarp. It offers significantly more customization, even if it isn't as 'turnkey' of a solution for a team. I would encourage anyone with a large team (100+ members) or the time/resources to commit to this effort to …

Likelihood to Recommend
GaggleAMP is well suited when you want to get timely local language content out to folks in other countries/regions, or content for a specific group/department. It is also well suited when you have multiple Gaggle content managers with multiple content calendars. It might be less appropriate if you want to hold multiple Social contests (gamification) with different rules, scopes, leaderboards, etc. for different groups/tags as there is only one leaderboard.

Something I really [like about Sociabble} is the ease of use of the tool, for the most part, and the information provided about the various features within [the software]. On the other hand, [I suggest] that Sociabble [should prove upon] the different [purviews] of admin and users. Sociabble [could be useful if there [were] different gradations of admin's [role in coordinating with] the user's [ability to modify] and edit posts and comments.

  • User-Friendly Layout: A layout and feel that will be very familiar to anyone who uses other social media channels, especially Pinterest.
  • Ease Of Use: Incredibly simple platform to connect your profiles with and begin using; while it has significant opportunity for customization and higher-level usage, the basic purpose and configuration of the platform is incredibly straight-forward.
  • Customization: There are a ton of customizable options and elements that Sociabble provides, compared to other products on the market.

Cons
  • Activity notification emails are sometimes late in reaching peoples' inboxes.
  • Sometimes activities just fail to work and an IT ticket is needed.
  • GaggleAMP has to explore more ways to get ahead of API issues.
  • Some pages on the new dashboard aren't as intuitive.
  • Activity notification emails could use some design work.
Read full review
  • Gamification is geared towards adding new users (and thus paid for seats for Sociabble), rather than incentives to promote specific campaigns by existing users.
  • Can’t measure engagement for a particular month/week.
  • I believe that the price can be revised and improved, not taking all the performance out of the software, just analyzing that it is great and that it can have more reach if the price is improved for interested parties with lower conditions.

Customer service has been good. It's easy to use. It's cost effective. It's a good way to expand your social presence and get your employees more vested in branding the company without spending a ton of money. There are bells and whistles that may be good for other users. I just haven't had the time to use them

Support Rating
Support for GaggleAMP is easily the best customer support I've experienced with any software tool. Our rep, Sam, is dedicated to our account (no bouncing around a call-center bullpen), and is highly proactive and eager to help us succeed. Most of our interactions have nothing to do with problems, but rather opportunities to optimize our use of the tool and set us up for greatest success. GaggleAMP sets a gold standard for customer support!

Hootsuite does a good job of planning and scheduling for social media as well as a decent analytics program. However, their usefulness stops there. Hootsuite does not have an integrated feature to automatically pull posts from your website or blog and they do not have a social advocacy section either.

Sociabble is the more premium and customizable version of Smarp. It offers significantly more customization, even if it isn't as 'turnkey' of a solution for a team. I would encourage anyone with a large team (100+ members) or the time/resources to commit to this effort to consider Sociabble, while I'd recommend Smarp for smaller teams or a company that doesn't have the time/bandwidth to dedicate resources to the management of the platform.

Rules can be applied to reward End-Users based on specific actions performed.

The Sociabble reward framework highlights initiatives, such as by offering Sociabble Trees where End-Users receive real trees as part of a reforestation project.

- Transversal recognition with Praises (Kudos) distribution among the workforce. This helps to break silos in the organization, thanking colleagues for their participation and efforts in the program, etc. 
- Bottom-up approach by opening up the platform for user-generated content. This challenges employees to share photos and videos of their participation at trade shows and events. Marketing teams can reuse this content generated on the platform to create campaigns.
