What do you like best about Sprout Social Employee Advocacy?

The concept and the pricing are both great. Having the app for the employees is also helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sprout Social Employee Advocacy?

The scoring is wrong. Sincerely. It's the total number of followers multiplied by the number of posts. Given the algorithms, there's no way these numbers are correct. Ex: We had an employee get her tweet retweeted by an account with a significant number of followers but she didn't get a bump. On top of that, there's no real way for users to contribute content. Top admins have to approve what is submitted but even that has to be in a certain category. Also, everything has to be done in the app. So if your employee can't like/share/comment on a post and get points. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sprout Social Employee Advocacy:

Ask yourself what you're truly looking for. Gamification or easy access to social posts? Bambu is more so beneficial for the latter at this point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
