## Reviews

### "A Great Product" — 4.0/5

> **Kimberley** | *16 March 2021* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Regular introductions with like-minded individuals&#10;The ability to control how often I received introductions
> 
> **Cons**: Messaging can be challenging.  Usually we take our conversations offline.
> 
> I have used Ten Thousand Coffees to stay connected with colleagues, and to connect my students with alumni and other professionals.  As a user, I love the introductions as I have now connected with people that I may not have had the opportunity to connect with otherwise.  As an administrator I regularly received positive feedback from our students.

### "Excellent platform to scale and support development programs\!" — 5.0/5

> **Fatima** | *27 August 2024* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The platform is easy to navigate, data is thorough and readily accessible, and the team is highly collaborative and supportive. Leveraging 10KC has made it possible for us to scale and manage our enterprise-wide mentorship and networking program that would otherwise require a full team to manually develop, implement, support and manage. The content that 10KC provides is also incredibly helpful and can be curated to support our program goals without the heavy lift of developing all development content to guide participants.
> 
> **Cons**: The technology automates messages and reminders to participants - which I LOVE - but I wish we could customize the messages' "sender" information so that it appears to come from someone within our organization. I think it would help employees make a faster connection when they receive communications and would reinforce our internal branding.

### "Greta customer service\!\!" — 3.0/5

> **Reagan** | *15 December 2023* | Professional Training & Coaching | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Customer service - the team we are working with to implement is very organized and helpful.&#10;Various functionality&#10;accommodating to our requests
> 
> **Cons**: administrative to use if dont have integrations&#10;too many email notifications
> 
> has had an overall positive impact on our organization

### "10KC: A must-have software for professional growth and development" — 5.0/5

> **Okey** | *15 December 2022* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: 10KC exceeded my expectations regarding value for participants; the software eliminated guess work that are commonly associated with professional mentorship and networking.
> 
> **Cons**: I cannot think of what I like least about 10KC at this time.
> 
> Our expectations for using 10KC have been exceeded well beyond what we originally imagined. Networking and mentorship are two of very few top professional growth and development activities, but they can be very time-consuming and bit of hit-or-miss. 10KC successfully eliminates the barriers to excellent networking and mentorship experience. 10KC also includes several other added benefits - such as office hours, scheduling meetings, etc.

### "A great networking platform for those looking to become a mentor or seeking a mentor in a new field" — 4.0/5

> **Rachael** | *8 February 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: My favourite feature of 10KC is that it is a networking program focus on mentoring that can help to match you with beneficial connections from both a mentor and mentee perspective.
> 
> **Cons**: Cultivating connections and mentorship relationships was not as effortless and streamlined as hoped but that could have also been specific to the institution I was a part of and using 10KC with.
> 
> Overall a positive experiencing to help facilitate connections for being a mentor as well as finding a mentor. 10KC's ability to match you with appropriate mentorship opportunities is my favourite feature and what has been most helpful. Also really like the fact that 10KC is specifically a social networking platform for cultivating mentorships whereas no other platforms (even LinkedIn) offer a similar service.
