Share, Collaborate, and Vote On Ideas

Give your company a permanent brainstorming session and empower employees with the opportunity to have their ideas heard and feel valued while making real impact. Employees can come up with new product ideas based on market trends, or find efficiencies in processes that will help grow the business. These ideas improve productivity, cut costs, and drive improvements in a short time period.

Give Employees and Guests The Freedom To Share Ideas

Ideas are a way for users to share ideas with the entire network to improve products or business processes. Other colleagues can then comment on a new idea to help a small idea grow into a well-designed process or refined product breakthrough. Ideas are given a title and description, and can be assigned to a particular project, group, department, and their respective guests or any opportunity. Attach any file to expand on the idea, and assign hashtags to allow users to follow its progress.

Capture Valuable Thought With Idea Campaigns

Idea campaigns are created to help users collect ideas focused around a particular problem or question. Colleagues can then reply to posts with relevant ideas, or vote for the ideas others have submitted and leave comments. Starting a campaign is easy, users select a new campaign, give it a title and description, assign campaign managers and start/end dates. Much like sharing ideas, campaigns can include image or document attachments, plus hashtags for followers.

Voting & Comments

As employees discuss and vote on great ideas, the best ideas bubble to the top. This gives visibility to everyone and provides a status on where ideas are in the life-cycle, and how likely it they are to be adopted. While an idea is is the ‘idea socialization’ phase, colleagues have the opportunity to provide comments to further refine and prioritize ideas.

Customize The Idea Life-Cycle

Organizations are given the control to customize how the idea life-cycle is managed, to meet their business needs. Configuring idea stages and evaluators before launching a campaign, helps align the idea management process with the goals of the organization.

Idea Leaderboards

Get a list of ideas and idea contributors who are topping the charts at the company. The ideas module has a section that features contributors by the number of ideas they have submitted, or a list of the top 10 most voted for idea submissions.

Idea Insights

Making use of dashboard widgets, users can keep up to date and follow along with the most recent, top voted, or most discussed ideas. This allows ideas to generate a healthy following and the engagement need to take an idea from theory to reality.

Additional Ideas and Campaigns Features

Patentable Ideas

Users can indicate if they believe their idea is patentable when they are submitting a new idea. This will create urgency for the company to review and take action if necessary.

Ideas On The Go

Users can create idea campaigns from the mobile app, or easily contribute to existing idea campaigns. This makes it easy for users to capture ideas and add unique thoughts or attachments from their mobile devices as they formulate on the go. Ideas can then be expanded or edited as needed from a mobile device or when a user returns to their desk.

Idea Management Committee

A group of users designated by Network Admins to review Ideas that are submitted. They determine if any next steps should occur or if the idea should be deferred. These users have the ability to change the status of each Idea submitted and have full visibility of the process.

Idea Lifecycle Status

Every idea goes through a status lifecycle as it moves from phase to phase. The management committee will acknowledge and mark ideas based on the status as it is being reviewed or implemented or necessary response if it is deferred or duplicate.

Sorting Ideas and Campaigns

Ideas and campaigns can be sorted by particular status or to only show those created by the user.
