Thinking together about innovation made easy

Very affordable, intuitive tool that enables communication across departments and locations, with images and text supporting each other. A tool that is very convenient for all users ( the employee, the community manager, the client) to work with. Submitting an idea, evaluating and reading an idea, initiating interaction and getting the overview are all perfcet provided in the tool.

Pros:

It is the whole package of software flexibility and customer service through their customer success manager as this is a software as a service, lots of capabilities are offered. So almost everthing is possible but need to make sense in the context, so that translation of software capabilities and context knowledge is great with this offering.

Cons:

Some of the features were early stage and we were also experimenting with new workflows and innovation flows, challenging a little but this platform but again worked out very well, so small hick ups in some of output reports , but a company that learn fast.

State of the art, easy to use and highly customizable innovation platform

We use Yambla mainly to collect the best ideas and find the most fitting candidates for our innovation programs. All suiting candidates for our programs get access to the platform and can upload new ideas for the program or staff themselves on other existing teams. We can manage this whole process, can rate every idea and manually give feedback to every team. Through Yambla, we can integrate the candidates perfectly in our recruiting process. It is now in their hands - they can find their suiting team for the program and upload as many ideas as they want. This not just saves us a lot of time, it as well improves the quality of ideas and teams a lot.

Pros:

What I most like about the Yambla platform is the possibility to highly customize the platform for every event. We already used it for completely different purposes, but with the opportunity to choose every ideation process step manually for every occasion, we could create precisely the ideation/collaboration surrounding that has fit most to our needs. What also has have to be mentioned is the excellent customer support. Especially in the setup phase, we had to implement a lot of customized features, but the support always finished in time and with extra help.

Cons:

A few basic features like an integrated tutorial for new users are still missing (but I know that the team is already working on it).

Vendor Response

Hi Timon, Wow, we are blown away by your positive words! It's fantastic to hear that you've been able to leverage the flexibility of the platform to support your different program needs. Products that require tutorials are bad products! All jokes aside, some extra guidance for new users would be welcome, and we are working on making that happen. Stay tuned! Thanks again for your positive words and for writing such a detailed review.

Admin & User-Friendly Ideation Platform

Yambla allowed to take a bottom up approach to improving our business. Users have a voice with the product that might otherwise not be heard. We met with the management team monthly to review all the ideas submitted that also met certain support criteria. Those ideas we would implement. Tracking everything in Yambla was easy as well.

Pros:

Yambla is a great product and we looked at quite a few competitors before going with Yambla. We like the ease of use out-of-the-box, with minimum configuration required. We were up and running in a few days. With other products there was a lot of implementation time that was required, and the products just had too many options. It was almost like implementing something like SharePoint. All we wanted to do was track ideas. So Yambla fit perfectly for us. From an employee perspective, they like getting recognized for their ideas. Also, for every implemented idea, we pay them a small amount. Implementing Yambla has been a great success. Also, Yambla supports single-sign-on, so the users would be able to access the platform instantly.

Cons:

Nothing comes to mind. We never had any outages. Also the support team was excellent and would reach out to us promptly if I had questions.

Reasons for choosing Yambla

Implementation time. The other products tried to be everything at the same time and required a lot of setup with a large implementation effort. We wanted a product that tracked ideas for us. Nothing else. Yambla is great because we were up and running within a few days. All I had to do was customize a few out-of-the-box workflows to make it fit our business.

Hi Chris! Thank you so much for the positive review and for taking your time to write this up! When you are happy, so are we! Thanks again!

Among the ideas management tools, there is Yambla

Yambla is used in our company to amplify collaborative innovation, by encouraging employees, across all departments, to think about many challenges, both in terms of operational excellence and the development of new products and services. Through competitions, we mobilize employees, allowing them to give free rein to their creativity, while ensuring consistency with the desired strategic objectives.

Cons:

- Analytics may be too limited in some cases. - For a business administrator, Yambla must be "practiced" in order to be able to use it to its full potential; it is not always self-explanatory
