“Using the Firstup platform was a different approach. We wanted to have a social media approach to gain more engagement and keep employees coming back. Before we were quite corporate with an intranet. Now we have colleagues downloading the app and checking regularly and we are having fun with it. It was a mindset shift.”

“By having an enterprise-wide communications platform, we’re saving about $100,000 a year we would have spent on a Sharepoint developer. Then there’s the time savings for my team, because we’re not posting duplicative information in multiple places. There are tons of cost savings with the Firstup platform.”
