Chose Microsoft Viva Goals (discontinued)
Microsoft Viva comes with Teams. The Monday board is helpful too, but I just like Microsoft Viva better
Chose Microsoft Viva Goals (discontinued)
Ally was preferred over the alternatives due to the following:
  • Quick turnaround by reps
  • Detailed product demo
Chose Microsoft Viva Goals (discontinued)
Again, Ally ranks very high and this is because they continuously work towards improving their software, platform and solutions. I believe that they have been very innovative and are adding important layers to help keep an OKR program culture relevant and beneficial to its …

Chose Zoho Wiki
I was using Google drive for maintaining documents, but it was hard to find right document at right time.
Chose Zoho Wiki
Confluence features were limited with the free version and our organization wasn't in a position to invest in a knowledge sharing platform, hence Zoho Wiki came in handy as it saved us on the extra cost which we could not initially afford. Also as we were already using other …

I believe Ally.io to be one of the best OKR software tools available and it can be deployed easily to small, medium, large enterprises. The tool is easily scalable and its implementation can be deployed without necessarily having a pilot test. I can not find scenarios where it would not be appropriate.

Great for teams and organizations with lots of content and material. It allows teams to have one central place to go and access the latest info. Definitely a more scalable solution for teams looking for a more robust enterprise solution than standard folder sharing. SMB org will be better suited for a more economical shared folder solution like Dropbox or Google Drive. If you want to house new hire documentation or manuals/training programs for a larger org this is a great tool.

Pros
  • The default state of transparency. This helps in reinforcing the superpower of OKRs. In Ally.io, the default mode of any objective created is public (unless stated otherwise). This helps people across the organization to understand where and how the organization is progressing.
  • The above feature of transparency is also reinforced by the feature of creating dependencies. This allows for people to understand the parties involved in achieving a particular goal and creates accountability. It is clearly understood which party has not contributed enough and RCA can be done on the same.
  • It allows for integrating with a host of other tools such that the check-in process can be automated. This allows for reducing the effort of managers in terms of updating multiple tools.
  • The dashboarding feature has helped us in reducing effort spent in creating presentations for retros, planning, and demos
  • Ally.io's customer success team is among the best that I have worked it. Always ready to help, proactive, and up for the next challenge. They take the success of their customers extremely seriously. Kudos to the team for this attitude.

Confluence features were limited with the free version and our organization wasn't in a position to invest in a knowledge sharing platform, hence Zoho Wiki came in handy as it saved us on the extra cost which we could not initially afford. Also as we were already using other Zoho products which Atlassian was not offering, therefore Zoho Wiki was considered the best alternative.

Return on Investment
  • AI co-pilot makes it easier to be more direct and less "wordy"
  • Teams is a great program and I like how it's seamless and more advanced when you want to convert a file type.
  • Tasks section is great way to keep track of lists that I constantly forget. Now I just use my computer to keep track of my "to-do list"

  • I feel that due to ZOHO wiki my team started documenting more and more things.
  • Because of knowledge available from previous projects, it definitely increased efficiency of team.
  • At first I felt like it is taking more time for documenting things, but after some time it started paying me back.
