## Reviews

### "A great platform with all of the basic functionality that a new ideation strategy needs." — 5.0/5

> **Bob** | *2 November 2017* | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Great customer support and communication from the IdeaDrop team. Software is simple and easy to use.
> 
> **Cons**: Some of the filtering tools are a bit clumsy, but the team there is working diligently to upgrade them and I forsee some great changes in that department in the near future (bumping up my easy of use and functionality ratings in doing so\!)
> 
> Excellent engagement with employees, participation by team members and superb quality of discussions and ideas created as a result of implementation.

### "Idea Drop has transformed the way we collect and action ideas across our business" — 5.0/5

> **Simon** | *6 September 2016* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Fast to onboard team members; very low training costs; highly intuitive design and user experience. The mobile apps are a big plus for us too as a number of our team members are rarely at their desk. Particularly like the status tool, which enables us to align our workflow with ideas and keep everyone in tune with what we're doing with the ideas they share. Cloaking is popular too  enabling staff to hide their identities when sharing ideas.
> 
> **Cons**: Would love to see wider integrations with other elements of our tech stack such as Slack and Office 365.
> 
> We quickly saw the benefits of Idea Drop as teams throughout the business began collaborating, communicating and sharing ideas in ways we hadn't seen before with our existing tech stack. Idea Drop's fresh interface and intuitive social features made it quick to onboard our teams and we now rely on it to capture, enrich and action new ideas across the business on an ongoing basis.

### "Microgaming" — 4.0/5

> **Roxanne** | *10 July 2019* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use and fit for purpose. Optimized for mobile. The score system is great
> 
> **Cons**: There are a few restrictions on reports, manually having to request monthly innovation score reports.  Branding is restricted. Doesn't allow you to upload videos. You don't get notified every time a new idea comes through unless you follow that person, difficult with on a huge scale.
> 
> Positive experience and the staff are really helpful even after post launch. Turnaround on issues is resolved in good time

### "Mechanism" — 4.0/5

> **John** | *20 June 2021* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Design and customer service representative
> 
> **Cons**: Takes far to long to get things accompanied
> 
> Amazed

### "Great team and product.  Worked hard to engage with us and win our trust." — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *31 October 2017* | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The solution is intuitive, well presented and can be picked up easily by users.  We are currently in the pilot phase and found that all of our team could very quickly familiarise themselves with IdeaDrop.  They were able to contribute ideas and discussion points very quickly.
> 
> **Cons**: Cost of additional Consulting services could be more competitive.  We would be keen to engage if the price was lower.
> 
> Ability to gather ideas and opinions from a wide range of our user communities.  Being able to 'cloak' ideas means that some of our more reluctant users can contribute without feeling too exposed.
