Amazing product, great results
Awesome. Found a mentor within a really short time period, they still mentor me now and have delivered massive value!
Pros
I was able to connect with a new mentor super quick, and new mentees. The product is clear, effective and easy to use and links you up with great matches for your goals.
Cons
Nothing that I can think of, it works exactly how I needed it to.
Reasons for Switching to PushFar
Other apps seem to be filled with sales people trying to make connections ans solve problems for a fee. Pushfar is legitimate mentoring and is free to use.

Perfect for Mentoring - Highly Recommended!
I've had a superb experience. The whole team are always extremely dedicated to ensuring our mentoring success and always provide us with additional innovative ways to make sure our mentoring programmes work.
Pros
PushFar's platform is extremely easy to use and allows me to manage my own mentoring relationships and report on our entire organisation's mentoring quickly and effectively. If anyone is looking to run a mentoring programme, they need PushFar. Not only is it fantastic at matching people together but it also is immensely effective at ensuring our mentoring pairs are engaged and stay on track with mentoring activities.
Cons
Nothing! It serves the purpose we need and whenever we've had suggested or requested additional features, PushFar have delivered them quickly and effectively.
Reasons for Choosing PushFar
Cost effective, smooth and fast user experience, brilliant support, and continual development of additional features we didn't know we needed but love whenever they're released!

The best way to push your career!
Using this platform over the years I have significantly improved my career. Since I have joined the platform since early beginnings I had the honor to work with PushFar [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] as a mentor.[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] is super professional, always willing to help, approachable (even he is very busy), and kind. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] supported me with giving career advice that help me make a great progress over the time. I believe that having a mentor is one of the most important things for having a successful career.
Pros
- easy to use - connecting with people all over the world working in the same industry as I do - knowledge and experience exchange - motivation and support - great mentors
Cons
I didn't have any difficulties with using software, user experience is great done and it's easy to navigate.

Why was this not done before?!
My experience so far has been excellent. I'm looking to introduce it across the business, when the time is right. Meanwhile I've used it for my own professional development and already recommended it to individuals seeking a personal mentor outside the business. Pushfar are open to feedback and seem to work collaboratively with their audience and key advisers to continue to improve the system. Its a competitively priced platform and the benefits within an organisation to enhance talent and leadership development programmes is sizeable.
Pros
Its a simple yet effective platform. Powerful in that it can connect so many people actively seeking to mentor or be a mentee - so the experience starts as a positive one straight away. Its easy to set yourself up and I found a mentor quickly. The platform continues to improve but the functionality for the purpose is there and can only continue to get better.
Cons
Initial navigation to setting up the meeting/goals but this has already improved.

Beauty in it's simplicity...
We've opened ourselves up to more diversity of thought - allowing colleagues around the globe to connect with others around the globe to enhance their skills and abilities.
Pros
Simple, effective, easy to use, broader appeal so it's not just a mentoring programme. Integration into our HRIS allowed us to open our population up to so much more through mentoring. It allowed us to open our colleagues up to a diverse network of people, not just in our own business, but externally as well. Global reach and utterly amazing.
Cons
As with any new technologies, there's always a couple of little teething issues. The team at PushFar are amazing and sorted them.
Reasons for Choosing PushFar
We chose PushFar as it's beautifully simple and allows so much more then mentoring!

Superb Enabler
From our initial engagement we found the experience as made as easy as possible by the Pushfar team. At every step they helped us understand the workings of the system and which would suit our aspirations best.
Pros
The software was simple to set up and easy to learn how to use. We were up for running within a few weeks of contacting the Pushfar team and the experience was seamless and smooth.
Cons
We’ve not come across aspects that have been a problem so far; it’s very adaptive and easy to scale.
Reasons for Choosing PushFar
The Pushfar team were by far the most knowledgable and flexible. They understood the scope we wanted and how to help us build a platform that delivered for our members and supporters.

Virtual the "New" name of the game!
I am responsible for mentoring colleagues and am also responsible for training staff and I have found it very useful, especially in these "virtual" times.
Pros
It is well laid out, functional and easy to navigate through the relevant features
Cons
I honestly could not find any aspect of the software which I did not like. I have used other platforms and I have found that PushFar is superior.

One Stop Mentoring Shop
[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] and the team at PushFar are so helpful, no request is too much. They have been on hand to guide us through the entire setup of our mentoring platform, answering all questions and helping our users get onto the system. I could not endorse this product anymore than I already have. It is literally everything that we need.
Pros
- Easy to use - Super quick to sign up - Instant customer service responses - Completely customisable - Really good profile prompts
Cons
There is nothing so far that I do not like, it really does tick all of the boxes.

Fantastic Platform to Run Mentoring Schemes
PushFar offers us a great way to manage and run mentoring schemes, which we used to do in a very limited way. Being able to run mentoring efficiently and see direct value is great. The platform is extremely easy to navigate and understand and I would highly recommend it.
Pros
PushFar is extremely easy to use, while offering a comprehensive and extensive list of features to help our employees manage their mentoring relationships, and management to see what is happening. Great onboarding experience (took less than a week from contract to our first mentor matches), and very innovative feature releases.
Cons
Nothing yet. Any features lacking are always quickly added by their team.

Mentor
I have gained some mentees and I have been approached too.
Pros
Having retired from working with people throughout my life career, I wanted to give something back. I am so pleased to have found Push Far which gives me access to people looking for Mentors and Mentees looking for Mentors. I have had people contact me and I have contacted others offering help. The system is easy to use. I particularly like the messaging system and the diary reminders which link to my own calendar.
Cons
Nothing - the software is excellent. I like the way it works for me.

Can't recommend PushFar enough!!
Pros
The product is super easy to use and was very easy to implement. As the administrator, I found the backend of the system very easy to navigate. There is an extensive guide of how-to videos which are helpful, however, the system is so intuitive, I didn't need them. Really straightforward, does the job and does it well.
Cons
Nothing! Everything is so easy to use, and for any customisation we needed, [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] and his team were able to help very promptly.

An awesome tool for coaching/mentoring
Im connecting with new people and giving and getting help. It's also great way to push myself to achieve certain goals so I'm grateful it exists.
Pros
Pushfar is great in terms of User Interface. Very easy to use and very intuitive. Everything is where it should be and the gamification elements keep both mentors and mentees engaged.
Cons
I'd like to have less notifications come into my mailbox but I'm sure the team have thought about this and I just need to change a setting or something

Quantifies the abstract value of mentorship
The PushFar team are so great to work with and setup for our team was a breeze! We've made connections across our portfolio companies that likely wouldn't have emerged without PushFar. Thanks :)
Pros
It quantifies the value and productivity of mentorship automatically, which was extremely difficult when we had our teams setting up these schemes manually. Very easy to monitor who's engaged on both sides. Requires relatively little input/effort from employees to be valuable.
Cons
I suppose the UI could be improved in a few areas but it hasn't been a problem for us, you'll get a hang of the platform quickly.

Great mentoring tool
The team at PushFar were great to work with - thumbs up from me.
Pros
It's a great tool - I haven't used something like this before and it's great how easy it is to find a mentor to work with.
Cons
Whilst the tool works well, I think the look and feel could be a bit slicker.

Great Product
We were manually implementing various mentor schemes internally and this has made our job far easier. And cut down the time to match and pair massively.
Pros
Great access to company employees and relevant matching. The open-source directory also gives you access to experts outside of the company to provide different perspectives.
Cons
More access to global experts outside the company
