Considered Both Products
LumApps
Chose LumApps
It overall stacked up incredibly against all its competitors. Its customer service, simple to use format, and ease of implementation were hard to beat. We got up and running in about 6-8 months and it was right on schedule for implementation. It's feature set was smaller …
Chose LumApps
Our organization selected LumApps for its customizability, integrations with the Google suite, Slack, etc., in addition to the customizable meta-data that would allow for a unique user experience for our global teams so that users in the Latin American region, for example, …
Chose LumApps
Because we're on Google Workspace, it just made sense to use LumApps. We also use AODocs, and they all work together very well.
Chose LumApps
LumApps formatting an end-user views look much better, but Drupal is much easier to use.
Chose LumApps
We looked at several, but our parent company was using LumApps and it made the most sense to stick with them.
Chose LumApps
I was not part of the selection process. We do have teams that are using Sharepoint due to the fact that their teams use MS Teams heavily to share and collaborate. Some teams find it easier to simply build out Sharepoint pages because their Teams content already lives on …
Chose LumApps
It was not flexible enough for us and the granularity of permissions doesn’t attend us. Its a good tool but for simple sharing content.
Chose LumApps
LumApps is more fit for purpose for a collaborative intranet. Lots of features related to internal communications. However, some of the tools provided are not intuitive for people who have experience with other CMS platforms. The setup is a bit challenging, and will likely …
Chose LumApps
Sharepoint is also fairly easy to use for content creators. Sharepoint has been around for a very long time and is a powerful enterprise tool when it is well implemented, but implementation is critical to ensure that both the brand experience and usability for content owners …
Chose LumApps
LumApps certainly outperforms some of these platforms on the enterprise level due to their partnership with employee management services like Okta. That said, the content management aspect becomes more difficult because the management process feels very manual and rigid. Bulk …
Chose LumApps
LumApps is so much easier to use. With Sharepoint, you probably need a developer due to its complexity. You don't need that at all with LumApps. Marketing and HR professionals can easily learn it. It is best to lean on LumApps or a partner to build out a few templates to get …
Chose LumApps
Microsoft SharePoint, Microsoft Teams and SAP Jam
Chose LumApps
LumApps offers organizations both a data push and a data pull option. Controlling page viewership by the audience sets this tool apart from many other communication options. When organizations put in the appropriate design time effort to leverage LumApps' feature set, their …
Chose LumApps
We did not formally compare these platforms. I have worked on them with other clients.
Chose LumApps
Simpplr was the closest but we didn't think they could scale.
Chose LumApps
Google Sites is not meant to be an intranet, we were using it well beyond its intention, but it was free (and we use G Suite for everything else). We demoed Jive and Facebook for Business, but neither sufficed for an intranet that also needed to be a repository for documents, …
Chose LumApps
We previously used apps like Coda and Lessonly for user-generated content that we shared on our internal communication channels.

Coda and Google Docs work well for frequent collaboration. Lessonly works well for engaging learning content. We added in LumApps to manage content …
Chose LumApps
LumApps works with SharePoint and provides a much easier and more intuitive user interface. It is fairly simple to learn the basics, although plan to spend more time to really dive into all that it can offer and become an expert in the product. They seem very entuned to the …
Chose LumApps
We used Jive previously. From a capability standpoint, Jive was very strong. It could do a lot, and it did it mostly well. However, Jive was purchased and the company that bought them ruined the product. We would have severe downtime (sometimes for multiple days), and support …
Chose LumApps
I was not part of the team on product selection at that time.
Workleap
Chose Workleap
Workleap Officevibe is a fully featured product designed with a specific purpose; this makes it much easier to use for eNPS surveys and dashboards than SurveyMonkey and/or Power BI for analytics dashboards. Leaders can make it much more manageable. Also, Officevibe has quality …
Chose Workleap
Officevibe is a simple system that provides the opportunity to prepare for employee reviews and get a temperature of my team. Out of the other options, I like Officevibe for its easy interface, low/no cost, and automatically sequenced questions.
Chose Workleap
The only good and bad thing about Officevibe is that it's laser-focussed. It only does employee engagement. If you want a do-it-all tool, there are many alternatives. But if you want to nail employee engagement on the head and go deep, I highly recommend Officevibe.
Chose Workleap
While both of these products are geared towards office much larger than mine, Officevibe is priced by user so I was able to scale it down to fit us and is much more affordable than 15Five. They didn't have the ability to scale it down so the cost was very prohibitive for us. …
Chose Workleap
I didn't try anything else - Officevibe came across my desk and I went with it. I'm not sure what other options there are out there, but I'm sure there are a few. It's probably worth giving them a look, but if you're looking to keep your finger on the pulse of your company …

Likelihood to Recommend
LumApps is THE employee experience platform! With its customizable meta-data, I was able to create over 700 pieces of content to deploy a regionalized user experience for our global sales and customer success teams. No longer were employees inundated with content that did not apply to their region or market. With LumApps’ best in class functionality, the integrations that our organization uses, such as Google and Slack were easily integrated within LumApps to create a seamless user experience for a global audience.

If you don't have an employee engagement and performance platform, Workleap Officevibe will nicely fill that space; it would be best suited to small to medium organizations where there is already conversation to support team engagement, and anonymous surveys are helpful. The one-on-one feature and goals are also useful for proactively and positively engaging the workforce.

Usability
As I said before, LumApps platform is not intuitive at all, people have a lot of trouble using the tool, the curve to learn is too high, mainly the style part, is so confusing what I am adjusting there, is the outside of the widget? What does the padding do, what does the margin does.

Officevibe's user interface for end users is straightforward and well-designed; it looks nice and intuitive. We did have confusion about the brand, with some new employees thinking they were spam emails. Also, the manager's view and getting access to the right visibility can be confusing unless well administrated internally.

Question and bug support are very helpful and quick. About the feature requests, we don’t have much visibility of the features that we suggested, or If they are going to implement some solutions or not.

It overall stacked up incredibly against all its competitors. Its customer service, simple to use format, and ease of implementation were hard to beat. We got up and running in about 6-8 months and it was right on schedule for implementation. It's feature set was smaller then it's competitors but even at first glance it was much easier to use for the amount customization it contained. We considered factors when purchasing like ease of use, adaptability, and look/feel overall as a product. No product came close to LumApps on these features.

They didn't have the ability to scale it down so the cost was very prohibitive for us. I can add users as we grow and remove them if necessary so it's always going to stay affordable

Return on Investment
  • It is starting to reduce our reliance on email, and the overall volume of email.
  • It has created a smoother induction process for new starters because it is a central place where all employees can go for the core information and resources they need to stay informed and do their job.

  • I love seeing the eNPS. It is a quick reference point to see where our employees approval line lies.
  • The executive team gets a deeper look at the feelings of employees to see if problems are brewing.
