Jostle Pros and Cons

It's a toss-up between ease of use and the care taken to onboard and integrate the teams. I test drove a few different intranet systems, and Jostle came out by far the best with its slick design, intuitive processes, and the care taken by Jostle staff to make the journey as seamless as possible, as well as the price.

Honestly, nothing so far. I can't think of any. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

First and foremost, the Jostle platform is intuitive and easy to use. Our organization's employee demographic spans from the silent generation to gen z so simplicity has been critical to our successful implementation. Moving from an antiquated proprietary intranet was a paradigm shift and Jostle made it easy.

Their Product team and Support team are responsive and encourage suggestions for continuous improvements and enhancements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Truly the only negative I can think of is more of a pet peeve--inconsistency of obtaining search results. In some instances, you need to hit <enter> while other times you need to click the magnifying glass icon and still other times quick search results start popping up as you type.

Jostle has transformed how our remote workforce connects, making it easy and enjoyable to stay updated on company news, celebrate milestones like work anniversaries and birthdays, and ensure no updates or events get lost in the shuffle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes bulk uploading to the library can be slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its a great way to stay connected to teammates all across the org - to see what's happening and to celebrate one another! It's also a great place to house shared links and documents used org-wide. Very user-friendly! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There have been occasional techincal difficulties with photos. And I do wish there was a quicker way to search/find certain content - like searching past articles by key words/people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how Jostle brings together a widely dispersed organization and fosters a sense of community. It enables users to connect with colleagues in a way that other communication platforms, like newsletters, often can’t.

I also love how Jostle is easy to learn. Once trained on the platform, it becomes an easy tool to naviagate. I love the features it provides, like the Library feature, where you can just grab what you need out of the library and go. Every feature is designed to be useful.

While our company's organization has utilized Jostle more in the past 6 months than ever before, I still wish that more people, such as front office managers, utilized the platform more often. It's difficult to push people to log on sometimes, especially when it's not necessarily required of them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ability to keep everyone informed across shifts, discussion categories, information resources, polls for feedback, aniiversary and birthday reminders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I honestly can't think of any negatives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Automatic alerts, helpful articles, easy to find apps that I use often Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think that you should be able to post multiple images / videos Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our team enjoys sharing their experiences, building connections, and feeling acknowledged. We are committed to improving diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) within our organization. Jostle, a platform that fosters a sense of community and belonging, is helping us achieve this goal by bringing together cross-functional teams. We are grateful for this valuable resource and the positive impact it has made on our team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our company has been using Jostle as a platform for a while now, but we have noticed that our retail teams are not using it as much as we would like them to. In fact, only 20% of our retail staff are currently using the platform. We have been trying to provide them with resources to help them connect with the platform, but unfortunately, it has not been very effective so far. One of the main issues is that they do not have a work email address, and they are hesitant to use their personal email for work-related matters.

Also, it would be great if editors could add news stories from their mobile devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The onboarding with the Jostle staff was smooth and easy. We launched in January and are seeing 90% engagement from staff. The implementation was easy. We've added lots of reference documents to our library and engage them with agency-wide news on our News page. Staff enjoy the people view as a way to get to know each other. The Teams view is invaluable for onboarding new staff. I'm so glad we chose this platform for our intranet. The Jostle team is open to suggestions for new features and is always improving.

There is not a way currently to export the org charts from Teams except as a Visio file. We've requested a solution for this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We used Jostle as Infranet to engage our employees with posts, etc. Very user friendly and great way to keep everyone informed of events. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Can't create news posts on mobile, nothing else. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
