“When we first rolled it out, usage was at 25% or 30%. Now we’re averaging 85% of employees logging in and using it on a regular basis.”
“The support we get from ThoughtFarmer is phenomenal. Response times on help requests are great. We just wish all our vendors were that way.”
“ThoughtFarmer just seemed to fit the way we worked better.”
“We’ve come a long way in our cultural transformation over the past 3 years and Beacon continues to play a key role as one of our primary vehicles for providing transparent, timely, two-way communications. I still smile when I hear employees say ‘just check Beacon’ since you never would have heard someone say that before.”
"We’ve seen our employees get a lot more involved – whether they’re commenting on news posts, creating their own pages, or simply downloading content and filling out travel, HR, finance, or marketing forms. We really want to make Popsikel a one-stop-shop and we are making great progress there.”
“Before ThoughtFarmer we never knew if a news story was getting read, or appreciated. Now we have that information.”
“The goal is to eventually have each business unit oversee their own section and for more of our staff to feel comfortable and confident in posting their own content.”
"I’m immensely happy with this platform."
“We’re creating a place people want to work and ThoughtFarmer is central to it all.”
“ThoughtFarmer understood our needs right away, and it was obvious their platform would solve many organizational problems."
“It was as if we had been wandering in the desert for 10 long years and now finally found our tribe hanging out at this chill social intranet oasis asking, ‘What took you so long."
“The Insider has really opened up the doors for employees in departments that don’t often interact with each other for business. It really has worked out perfectly.”
“One of the benefits associated with the Placemaking intranet, the Portal, has been a dramatic increase in the frequency and quality of collaboration across our organization, a feat which was a challenge in the past due to a geographically distributed employee base and email saturation. The Portal evolved in a short time from a simple news posting board to a living community which supported the sharing of news, ideas and information. It allowed our critical roles, our Development and Construction Managers, to share innovations that had an immediate impact on the efficiency and quality of our developments. It allowed our employees to share personal information, strengthening relationships between team members who often worked miles apart. It communicated that our leaders trust and value our employee base, now the authors of our intranet, and promoted accountability. And perhaps most importantly, it stimulated dialogue that inspired focus on important initiatives such as environmental sustainability across our organization, innovation, empowerment, work-life balance, and the celebration of individual, team and organizational successes.”
“They’ve become a very strategic partner of ours. We talk to them almost daily.”
“We look forward to applying new features to our existing build, and achieving all our intranet goals. At the end of the day we just want to do cool things, and provide the latest and greatest to our community.”
