Microsoft Viva Glint vs. TINYpulse

Glint is a really user friendly and visually appealing platform for survey recipients. They also have a great support team, who are helpful in answering our questions. Areas where Glint can improve is more on the admin side. If you only need to run your surveys a few times a year (which is what we do with our 360 & employee engagement surveys), it’s not going to be bad at all. For our exit interview process, we run them for every leaver and are running into difficulties with how to streamline how to upload the data in an efficient and non-time consuming way. I also think data reporting can be better & more user friendly.

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.

• Great way to create and send surveys.
• Easy to fill out when expecting 100s of responses.
• Effective at collating response for management teams to review.
• Ability to complete on mobile devices.

Incentivized

• Helps increase team camaraderie and rapport by celebrating wins and showing appreciation.
• Helps monitor any team issues by asking (anonymous) questions about company and team dynamics.
• Team members are able to safely provide feedback and make suggestions without concerns of awkwardness or friction.

Incentivized

• Management coaching to fix discovered problems.
• Individual responses to individual issues.
• Clear explanation of anonymity or who will end up reading the feedback.

Incentivized

• 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.

INCREDIBLY easy for the end-user. The only questions we had were around confidentiality/anonymity. We tried to further address these with other surveys by calling out and explaining how Glint worked. As an admin, it is also quite simple and easy to find answers when you don't have them.

Self explanatory and easy to use. Email notifications help to remind users what they have to do. Very simple and straightforward user interface.

The technical support has been on point from implementation through to when we were running on our own with our surveys. It's great to have People Science support but we did find that oftentimes we knew our organization better and should be speaking to leadership about these results instead of PS. It was great to throw lines out to them for trends, especially when it came to Covid, Return to Office, and Diversity.

I have not interacted with the support team.

We did a more traditional, once a year, easily forgotten tool before and used other survey tools. No consistency with how across these tools and we couldn't tie things back to overall engagement in the way we would have liked. Glint is easy to manage and keeps all of our "pigs in one pen".

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.

Easy to deploy, create and add accounts.

Incentivized

• Feeling more involved in company decisions.
• Getting feedback to management on critical problems.
• Having a place to vent in anonymity.

Incentivized

• 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.
