Employee experience today is fragmented, frustrating and not designed for the new world of work. As organizations worldwide adapt to a fundamental shift in how and where we work, here is a summary of the challenges we hear from prospective customers every day.
Difficult to share company-wide news & updates
- Not all employees have emails
- Messages get lost among hundreds of other emails
- No way to embed video or make it visually appealing
- No way to create engagement (comments, likes)
- No consolidated view of past news and updates
- No way to track views, request signatures or acknowledgements


Information & company resources are hard to find
- Company information is spread over multiple tools and systems
- Content is hard to update so it doesn't get updated
- No way to track what employees are looking for
- No automation and governance to ensure periodic reviews
- No built-in support for multiple languages to support a global employee-base
Finding employees based on expertise, location & other important fields is impossible
- There is no central employee directory and many offices have their own in spreadsheets
- Employee directory has incomplete or outdated information
- Company directory is not available while mobile or remote
- Company organization chart is always out of date
- No way to see recent hires or work anniversaries


Too many emails & meetings leave no time for work
- Email is not quick enough to have a good conversation
- Reply all to large group mails causes flooding of inboxes
- Email creates pockets of black holes and a closed company culture
- Getting responses and resolving issues over email takes forever
- Too many status meetings just to keep everyone on the same page
No centralized knowledge base to reference
- Information is spread across many tools making it time-consuming to find
- It is hard to tell what information is current and what is outdated
- There is no concept of content ranking, popularity, authority
- There is no mechanism for content to be periodically reviewed for accuracy
- There is no way to request or learn about the new information


Outdated systems don't allow mobile & remote access
- Very few things we need are accessible from mobile
- Even if something is accessible, the user experience is outdated
- Not being able to do things while mobile makes everything slow
Employee training & onboarding is difficult
- New employee onboarding is inefficient and involves a lot of steps
- Every time a new employee joins we have to start from scratch
- There is not a good place to encourage continuous learning
- Training required for compliance with laws and company policies is hard to maintain and track


Manual paper-pushing makes everything move too slow
- Too many paper forms to fill out for everyday workflows
- Getting approvals for things takes forever
- Reliance on email for approvals slows the business to a crawl
- We can’t find who is in and who is out of the office
Too many tools and they cost too much to license & support
- Licensing costs for various tools add up quickly
- Seems like many of the tools do similar things causing confusion
- There are a lot of inefficiencies as we keep duplicating work from one tool to another
- Supporting, training, and upgrading users on all these tools take over
- Our company data is all over the place creating security risks
- User experience across tools is all over the map


There is no one place that we can call our company’s digital home
- We have to check 10 different tools to just get started with my day
- We constantly have to log in and switch between different apps and tabs
- HR and IT keep getting phone calls asking the same questions, over and over
- No one place brings everything together
- Lack of a central company app leaves employees feeling disorganized
Hard to communicate & collaborate with my project team
- There is no centralized project site for the project team to work together
- Projects frequently fall behind because of missed communication
- Seeing all the conversations about a project requires going through endless email chains
- We had a hard time keeping clients and partners on track with their to-do items
- We tried everything from email, spreadsheets, Asana, Trello, Slack, Jira, MS projects, Monday, nothing worked well


Employee engagement and alignment with the company is lacking
- There is no way to recognize colleagues for going above & beyond
- We don’t seem to have a culture of celebrating team success
- Our employee surveys have nothing to do with my role at the company
- We don’t celebrate holidays and personal milestones as a company or a team
These workplace problems have a large negative impact on business
