PropFuel is a Game Changer
PropFuel makes it so incredibly easy for team members to recognize each other. Instead of asking "is this good deed by my colleague worthy of an e-mail" they can "prop" their teammates quickly and easily. This type of consistent recognition improves morale and encourages an atmosphere of mutual support. Combine this feature, which is used multiple times every day, with the "check in" capabilities and you have a powerful tool that is a combination of suggestion program, employee recognition program and silo buster. PropFuel fills a gigantic hole in corporate culture with something so easy to implement and use. It's been fantastic in a dispersed team like ours but I also see the application for any company regardless of their employees stay remote or not.
PROSPropFuel was simple to set up and get running. It is also easy to use: no special training, no downtime to learn anything complicated. The ease of use made it a powerful tool for us right away.
CONSPropFuel is constantly improving the product -- from an easy integration into Slack to better reporting. There isn't any one area where I see a major deficiency in the software. The biggest challenge is keeping the program fresh so employees stay engaged using it effectively.
Vendor Response
Michael, our friend! Thank you for the kind review! We're happy that PropFuel is working to keep your team connected no matter where you are. If you need new ideas for engagement, you know we're always here to help!

Must Have Software for Membership Upgrades
Propfuel has paid for itself 10x over with the automation it can apply to member engagement and upgrades. In just one month we were able to identify over 200 members that wanted to upgrade to a paid subscription just by asking the simple question, “Would you like to upgrade?” I never realized that our members wanted simple, straight forward communication vs the daunting, long emails. It’s an amazing supplemental form of marketing to pair with our educational content. Did I mention we increased our webinar registrations by 830% with Propfuel? Again, by simply giving them information and allowing our members to let us know by a click of a button if they’d like to attend or receive the recording. I’m a raving fan and the team is wonderful to work with. Choosing to use Propfuel for any member-based business, and even SaaS model with unengaged customers is the way to go.
CONSNo dislikes! Honestly, the software is hyper compatible due to available API integrations, and solves our immediate pain points.

Whitney: thank you for the amazing review! We love having you on board and are so thrilled to hear of your successes! Keep them coming!

A more engaging way to communicate with our members
PropFuel gives our association a new way to communicate with our members beyond the traditional email which typically only provides information. With PropFuel, we can engage our members and give them an opportunity to provide feedback while still providing important information. Their feedback allows us to customize our follow-up with them and better meet their needs.
CONSWe wish there was an option to select multiple answers for multiple choice questions rather than a single selection only. Also, some of the text formatting, e.g. on landing pages, can be a little wonky; we sometimes have to play around with it a bit to get the look we want.
Vendor Response
Brad, thank you for the review! We're always working on new features. And as you know, you can always reach out to us if there's a formatting issue and we'll try to make it happen!

Great for member feedback and internal teambuilding
As an association that values member feedback and suggestions, Propfuel facilitates an easy and simple solution to get answers. This is a two-fold because with Propfuel we also are able to easily recognize and get to know our internal staff by sending out "get-to-know-you" type of questions, or by sending "props" which is so important for developing team culture.
PROSPropfuel is very simple to use and has plenty of options and functions that we can add for an easier user experience. I really appreciate that we can do simple polling, quick feedback responses, or in-depth work-flows as well. The interface is great to customize and Propfuel is very easy to integrate into our everyday uses.
CONSThe only thing that I dislike about Propfuel (which I do not think is their fault) is that sometimes we have experienced that some members receive their notifications in the spam folder, but Propfuel has given us instructions on how to help our members combat this, and I really feel that it's just with certain people's high security systems. Overall Propfuel is great and the benefits definitely overshadows any negative things about the platform.
Vendor Response
Elizabeth, thank you so much for the review! We love that you're using PropFuel for member engagement as well as internally. Can't wait to see what you do next!

ARVC Feedback
Overall its a great product. its easy to use, easy to setup, and the customer service is stellar. I love that the PropFuel team is always working to make improvements and is constantly deploying new features and keeping up with the needs of their clients.
PROSI love the ease of use for the customer. The fact that they can respond to questions right from their email, and not have to click a link is great and, in my opinion, leads to a higher response rate.
CONSWhile the integration has come a LONG way since I started using Prop Fuel, I wish it was fully embedded in Fonteva (SalesForce). This may not ever be possible since its not a SalesForce product but there are still elements of tracking and knowing who has received what that is missing from our database.
Reason for choosing PropFuel
I was not involved in this process, so I cannot say.

Would recommend PropFuel to anyone!
Overall a great experience! We are very happy with PropFuel.
PROSHow user friendly the software is and how it integrates seamlessly with our association management software. The PropFuel automations have saved us so much time and resources.
CONSI would not say that there's anything I specifically dislike about the software, but it just took a little practice and time learning how to successfully set up a campaign. However, the PropFuel team was always available whenever my team and I needed extra assistance.
Reason for choosing PropFuel
I was not on the team who decided to purchase PropFuel for our company, so I am not sure what other products were considered.

Versatile Heavy Hitter to Engage Your Audiences
Rarely does a product come along with which you are completely satisfied. PropFuel has exceeded our expectations across multiple yardsticks and is a valuable tool to help us achieve our association's objectives. The customer service we've experienced is truly phenomenal, and there is a users' group that meets regularly to share ideas and expertise which has sparked our imagination on many more ways we can make the most of PropFuel.
PROSPropFuel is an amazingly versatile product that operates on the premise, of "Ask, Answer, Act." Ask your audience a question, allow them to answer it, and then act on their response with more information, help and support to create a satisfying, engaging interaction. The ways you can use this to create a conversation with your constituents is limited only by your imagination. We are new to the product, but thus far have used it in a membership renewal campaign (achieving 3.25% over last year's results); a member profile update outreach effort; and currently in a new member engagement campaign. We have ideas for many other ways to make good use of its capabilities, including as a certification study tool, a volunteer experience conversation starter, a resource education vehicle and more. We have been thoroughly satisfied with PropFuel and are eager to find even more applications for this engagement booster.
CONSThe only thing I can say here is that PropFuel has the capability to operate in a fairly sophisticated way and can be configured to be very tightly customized to your needs. Thus, there is a bit of a learning curve to get up to speed, on par with other tools that go beyond the basics. However, PropFuel's [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN], is 100% committed to helping customers achieve great success and spends (yes, continues to spend) time with us personally and patiently assisting us in configuring our campaigns.

Teena, thank you for the glowing review! We love your versatile use of PropFuel across the member lifecycle, and in such a short time. Can't wait to see what you come up with next!

Good Product
It is a great engagement tool and we have successfully implemented many new processes in the office because of it. Everyone in the office now has a voice which they did not have before, it allows for them to express their opinions in a way that doesn't leave them vulnerable and also allows management to see patterns among concerns or ideas.
PROSI like the fact that feedback can come through anonymously ensuring that no one is afraid to state what they really think .
CONSI think for the prop page it would be cool to socialize a little bit more by allowing photos or emojis to be shared. We display the props in our office and I think it would be a fun feature to have pictures of past volunteering events or things of that nature display when props are given about them.

Great Engagement Tool
We have had a tremendous open and response rate with this tool compared to the emails we were previously sending. It has helped us connect more with our members and we hope to see that improve retention when it comes time for these members to renew their membership.
PROSThis was the easiest software to set up and start using immediately. The customer support and training was excellent and anytime I have a question, I get an immediate response. One of the things that I like best is that they listen to feedback from their customers/users and add new features/functions all the time based on input from customers.
CONSFor the most part, the software has majority of the functions that we need. There are a few functions that could be streamlined (example, the embed check-in), but once you learn how to do it, it is fairly simple.

What a great tool for driving engagement!
PropFuel is a great tool for driving member engagement. The campaigns we've sent have gotten great open and engagement rates and our members seem to really engage with it. It integrates with all our other systems so we can easily import and export the data we send and receive.
CONSLearning the tool definitely takes some time and practice but once you figure it out, launching campaigns is a breeze. And they have a great support team to help with the onboarding and integration processes. There are a lot of cool features and functionality which can be overwhelming, but we're taking it one step at a time and it seems to be working for us.

PropFuel for Membership Campaigns and so much more...
We have mostly used it so far to engage lapsed members regarding their membership status. It has been very successful in getting a response and getting them to renew. Although we send a ton of communications via email and mail, many members still say they didn't know their membership lapsed. PropFuel has helped us cut through the clutter.
PROSThis software is very user friendly and intuitive. It's a powerful tool that can be used in tons of ways, so I like that sky is the limit as far as it's uses. The biggest pro has been the customer service that goes along with the product and helping us to use it effectively.
CONSThe only thing that I haven't liked is not being able to personalize within the message of a campaign although I do believe that is a feature that is being developed. We have not yet integrated with our CRM but that is due to our IT process, so I'm not sure yet how that will go.

Don't hesitate to go forward with Propfuel.
1. Implementation was smooth, easy to understand and we were up and running in weeks. The platform it's self is organized and structured. 2. Our first campaign generated more success than any email we have sent in the past. We were able to segment, target, and really listen to our members. It has transformed how we market. 3. Results, that you can see immediately. The investment we made in propfuel paid for its self within the first 30 days because our first 2 surveys were overwhelmingly successful. Propfuel is a great marketing tool and I can't say enough about it.

It is early days for us but we really appreciated the on-boarding and the way PropFuel takes the time to get to know us and our association. They feel like a partner, they continue to accompany us as we create our first campaigns and their experience and suggestions are invaluable.
PROSEase of use, the resources available to users, clean & clear interface. The ability to integrate with our AMS and write back updated information and the integration was set up entirely by PropFuel - couldn't have been simpler for us.
