I don't know how I survived without it!
The experience I have had with goHappy has been amazing! They have an incredible, fun team that communicates well and offers excellent service and follow up. The fact that I can get important information in the hands of every single employee with a few key strokes has been life changing from an HR perspective. Communication is one of the biggest challenges in any business. No matter what communication methods we tried in the past, someone always missed an important message. goHappy has been an invaluable tool to help bridge that gap. I can communicate with everyone instantaneously or I can send specific messages to targeted groups depending on the need. What a great tool!
PROSThe software is super easy to use, even for those of us that are not super tech savvy.
CONSI really don't have any cons. goHappy is constantly improving and adding features to their software.

Love goHappy!!
The full circle support staff are amazing! They never make you feel like you are a bother or that you are asking a "dumb" question!
PROSWe use the software for team communication. I love the ease of use and you don't have to be a "tech" person to figure it out. The support team, especially Nic, will drop everything to answer a question for us! They deliver what they promise!!
CONSThere really is nothing that I don't like about the software. We are pretty simplistic in our needs and goHappy suites us just fine!
Reasons for switching to goHappy
It was so complicated to use, pricing varied so much, the bill itself was difficult to figure out and trying to get help from someone was insanely time consuming and frustrating.
Vendor Response
Wow! Thanks for your review, Nancy! Our motto at goHappy is 'simple tools get used' and we so appreciate the confirmation on the ease of use. Our team has loved seeing all the different ways your organization has leveraged goHappy! Even some unique cases that we have been able to share with other clients! Thank you again for the kind words! ~Nick

Front Line Communication Made Easy
Communicating with 2500 restaurant employees is tough. GoHappy has given us the ability to communicate to our Snoozers in the format which works best for them!
PROSFirst, the people behind the product. They are passionate, kind, caring, smart, innovative and all around incredible humans. The team at GoHappy has truly become a partner to our business. Their customer service is superb! Second, we love how easy it is to use GoHappy. They have made communication with our front line workers easy. Their software plays an integral role in our engagement strategy.
CONSAll the things I would list here are being addressed in their upcoming release. Woo-hoo! Score one for their innovation and ability to grow and adapt. I guess if I had to add something here, it would be the inability to send PDF's as attachments.
Vendor Response
Thank you for such an awesome review Jeremy! And you will see in your inbox that I just sent you an email about the PDF because you can send a PDF document via a link so let's chat and get that set up for you! Thanks for being such a rockstar client Jeremy!

Just What We Needed
Our company has had an amazing experience with goHappy.
PROSgoHappy was just what our organization needed. Unlike other similar applications, there was no mobile app to download or any need to have our employees opt-in to utilize the service. goHappy is a simple-to-use, easy-to-adopt text messaging service. The application has zero learning curve, allowing us to get in and begin communicating with our employees immediately.
CONSThe company wishes the reporting was a bit more robust. We would also like to be able to manage surveys versus goHappy managing surveys and responses.
Reason for choosing goHappy
Ease of use.

Efficient and Reliable Communication
Overall, we highly recommend goHappy as a reliable and efficient text messaging platform for businesses. It has become a staple in our communication toolkit and has been instrumental in improving our overall communication efforts.
PROSgoHappy has proven to be a valuable asset to our communication strategy at work. The platform provides a convenient way to send short bursts of information to our employees from various departments, including HR, Safety, dispatchers, and even the CEO. One of the highlights of this service is its ability to integrate with our HRIS system, which automatically adds and removes employees as they are hired or terminated, saving us time and effort.
CONSThe only downside of the platform was the inability for employees to reply to messages. However, goHappy has recently introduced a new feature called Keywords, which allows us to set up automated responses to specific words, providing a solution to this issue.

The Product We've Been Searching For!
The GoHappyTeam has been amazing. I love their personalities and always feel so excited working when with them. I love the product and ease of use. This is the product we've been looking for!
PROSI love the customer support and how easy it is to use! No apps are needed to reach our frontline workers.
CONSI would love to have a branching system to drill down my selections like an org chart. Also automations and personalization tokens which I hear is coming in Aug. Also heard some keywords are coming so end user can get more info by texting keywords to our customized number. Very excited about that.
Reasons for switching to goHappy
Callfire required manual uploads.
Vendor Response
Thank you so much for the awesome review Heather! You all are such an awesome client and such a great example of how you can easily infuse "fun" into the culture with a simple text. Let's talk about your branching idea as I believe there is a way we could accommodate this now so I will add that to our next call agenda! Thanks again Heather!

Moved the Needle in Communication!
From the beginning of the free trial experience, we have had responsiveness and quality of our goHappy's customer support rep regarding any question or crazy idea we wanted to do with goHappy. Thanks, [sensitive content hidden] !
PROSReaching all of our associates quickly and communicating in several ways were just a few of our goals in accomplishing our move to goHappy!
CONSAccessing our survey results can be challenging. But I understand this is in the works to be an upgrade soon.
Reasons for switching to goHappy
We made the switch because of the ability to reach ALL of our associates accurately with our own information from our HCM system Also we could welcome our new hires with a quick text, and send birthday wishes to work anniversary greetings.

GoHappy Review
GoHappy has been the BEST addition to our overall business. We are cutting edge on technology, and this was such a simple, yet extremely effective tool we have added. It is very easy to use, employees love it, and it takes a huge amount of responsibility and pressure of our store managers to need to communicate so many details to all their staff (some they don't see on a daily basis, and passing along a note simply isn't effective). We use GoHappy especially for "triggered" messages for the new employee onboarding process: welcome, how to get set up on payroll, how to order uniforms, benefit eligibility, etc.
PROSEase of use, employees don't need to download an app, everyone gets text messages, great for employee engagement and understanding of new products/programs we offer to explain to the end-customer.
CONSSurvey results going into a Google Sheet instead of being emailed directly to us or a native report on the GoHappy website.

Gibsons loves GoHappy!
Able to reach 2000 EEs easily and effectively. Launched Engagement Survey with texting technology and had participation that exceeded expectations. The support and communication form GoHappy has been exceptional - they are committed to their product, their customers and connecting people.
PROSEase of implementation and customer support
CONSSelecting small groups of recipients by name (e.g. recognition) is a little clumsy, but there are improvements all the time!

goHappy is AWESOME!
It's so easy to use and setup. I love that we are able to communicate to our front line staff in the best way possible through text. Not only that but we can engage with them and celebrate anniversaries and birthdays. It also helps with our retention efforts as we have auto assigned new hire welcome messages as well as 30 and 90 days surveys.
CONSI don't have any cons to mention! If anything the ability to have an automatic signature would be great instead of having to always remember to say who the message is coming from.
Vendor Response
Zach - Thanks so much for taking the time to write a review! Your account might be one of the most fun to watch and see what types of awesome encouraging messages you send to your team :) The 'pinned' signature is such a great idea and will actually be included as a part of our next release in the coming months. Thanks again, and we look forward to continuing to power your frontline communications as you grow!

goHappy Takes Employee Communication to the NEXT LEVEL
From the very first call, our experience with goHappy as been fantastic. The support provided, training for use and regular check ins allow us to communicate with our goHappy team regularly and they are always fast to help with any hurdles that may come up.
PROSgoHappy is very user friendly and setting up a message to go out only takes minutes. Integrating the use of goHappy into our weekly communications helped us take the store level associate communication to a new level of consistency.
CONSWe use goHappy primarily for the informational and feel good stories. Communicating these out to our employees is very important to us and goHappy allows us to be consistent with those messages. We have been patiently waiting for predictive messaging to be rolled out so that we do not have to manually set up messages for items like birthdays, anniversaries and employment milestones.
