What do you like best about onHand?

What do you dislike about onHand?

Samsung phone keeps suggesting putting the app into deep sleep as it crashes regularly when open in the background.

When trying to track pledges with multiple actions to claim, the yellow window with "Time left to complete" and "Hold to track pledge" will often fail to load and can only be brought up by repeatedly closing and reopening from your actions, or in some cases stopping the app altogether and reloading - which impacts convenience of use.

What problems is onHand solving and how is that benefiting you?

onHand has helped me personally with incentivising consistency and accountability for everyday actions. This has had a great impact on my personal wellbeing in tracking actions which I might forget about or fail to prioritise which contribute significantly to my day to day. It has also made community volunteering and making a difference more accessible, reducing roadblocks between an appetite to help and contribute and actually making an impact. onHand also does a great job quanitfying the impact which day to day actions can have on the planet and living sustainably to reinforce motivation to create habits to make better choices.

What do you dislike about onHand?

I would love to have seen something about working parents in the 'Inclusivity Now' section - whether that be support options, videos about anti stereotyping Parents/carers who 'prioritise' careers over their families or 'mum guilt' etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about onHand?

I have been encouraged to be more active and try different things.

Before trying the app, I would never have considered drinking oat milk or buying a stranger a coffee in my local coffee shop (mostly because I don't frequent coffee shops: I don't have anything against strangers!)

Utilising a league system adds a sense of competition amongs colleagues. Reporting the number of trees planted on behalf of the company and the individual adds a sense of accomplishment.

Daily tasks encourage me to keep coming back to the app and checking off what I have done that day.

The app is easy to use and I consider the actions are grouped intuitively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about onHand?

Having a counter for remaining time is great but a "pledge reset" option would be nice. I have had some pledges I want to continue doing, but have realised I cannot achieve the pledge before the timer expires by tracking only once per day. I do not want to cancel the pledge, only to have to go looking for it to re-pledge, so I just let the timer expire at the end of the period. I think it would be less frustrating just to be able to reset my attempts to 0 and reset the timer when I realise I can no longer achieve the pledge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is onHand solving and how is that benefiting you?

I think the onHand app is encouraging the business to be more socially and environmentally responsible. This benefits employees like me from a wellbeing point of view. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about onHand?

We are OnHands first client/ user in New Zealand, and are vry pleased to be onboard. Volunteering with community projects and enviornmental activities. It's great to have local, hands on volunteer opportunities available - the environmental and social aspect is a key part of our business and helps with the company culture we are trying to develop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about onHand?

It would be nice if there was an infographic to view your companies trees (similar to Ecosia). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is onHand solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our CSR activities used to be very minimal, we have been working to develop a more robust offering with our teams to support communities better, and onhand enables us to do that in a meaningful way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about onHand?

It's a great app that allows you to expand the ways you think about doing good in the world. It's got a variety of tasks one can get involved in, and allows you to implement small adjustments to help yourself, your community and the planet. It's convenient and allows you to do good with so much ease, especially when it comes to locating volunteer opportunities near you. The app is simple to use and the reminders are great for motivation. The OnHand team are easy to contact to help support you when you need. I use it daily and feel like it's boosted my life. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about onHand?

There are some kinks to the app that could be worked out. For example, the actions refresh on the day of completion, giving you a small time frame to complete the task. For example 5 out of 7 days to complete 10K steps. Once completed, it refreshes then you have 6 days to complete the mission.

Another pain point we've found using the app is that with the remote calls, based on the system, if you call someone and talk to them but they don't require the companionship call anymore, you have to cancel the missio. Which is frustrating as you aren't rewarded for having tried. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is onHand solving and how is that benefiting you?

Allowing more volunteer opportunities for our remote team. Inspiring positive changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about onHand?

onHand has been a huge success at our agency since joining just over a month ago. Onboarding and integration was simple and very efficient, with incredibly helpful support from Ollie, Sophie and Grace on our journey so far. Our team have really engaged with the platform (which is very easy to navigate) and we are seeing people trying out more missions/actions as time goes on, with frequent points being added and an increase in the number of trees in our forest! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about onHand?

So far, I haven't seen anything to dislike about onHand! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is onHand solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is helping us to engage the team in being a part of our Social and Environmental progress, whilst also helping them to make small changes in behaviour.

It is encouraging people to take advantage of the volunteer days that we offer as a business.

It provides an easy way for us to monitor our progress in terms of hours volunteered, and environmental impact. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best about ONHand is that it is very user friendly. It has a nice list of items to choose from. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about onHand?

I wish adding volunteer programs I work with were easier. Example I work with the PTA at the school. But I am one of the main people. Therefore needed all of the information is not needed when I told myself accountable to do the time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is onHand solving and how is that benefiting you?

I think they are giving people reminders on common sense things such as, turning the water off when you brush your teeth. Rinsing dishes, washing in cold water, staying hydrated. The list is endless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very simple user friendly app that uses simple achievable CSR tasks as its action plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about onHand?

The requirement for daily updates on some tasks, this could be simplified to allow you to back date and update when you are available not daily as currently required on some missions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

How to track our CSR impact. Also to highlight the small changes that everyone can make in their own lives that are multiplied in to a much larger global benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
