"It's our second year with Alaya. We are still looking for better ways to utilize the platform."
2.5/5
What do you like best about Benevity?

1. Customer support team (Guillaume Granelli) has been taking good care of us. We have monthly call for check in.

2. Challenges are good. Employees are encouraged to participate the challenge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Benevity?

1. Before Alaya's convergence to Benevity, we were unable to receive the donation receipt.

2. The platform does not handle certain types of donations well. We had several campaigns (Sketcher's Walk and Make-Wish Foundation event) where the employee wants donation directed to certain sub-group within the event. In order to properly benefit the sub-group, we had to donate via event's website. Those donations by-pass Alaya platform. In order to get the matching donations, we had to ask customer service to manually input the donation to platform.

3. We have employees volunteer at kids school or local events. We would like to keep truck of volunteer hours in Alaya platform to see the impact, but it is not easy for employee to log those hours in Alaya platform. Our employees are discouraged to log their volunteer hours in Alaya platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

2 things for me: 1. ease of finding the platform within our intranet, 2. not yet enabled for single sign on so another password to remember!

"Living our Purpose through Alaya"
5/5
What do you like best about Benevity?

The Alaya platform is the base of a company initiative called Guerbet Positive. This volunteer program allows employees to support important causes where employees would like to make a difference during working hours. This platform contributes to team-building activities, increases awareness of important causes in South Africa e.g., Food sustainability and contributes to the purpose of Guerbet. Not only is a charitable event a lot of fun but it also contributes to the employee's engagement at work. Participating in CSI project make employees feel proud to work for a company that want to make a difference through positive contributions to society. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Benevity?

I don't have any dislikes of the Alaya platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

easy to use and I love the challenges. I learn new things about my community and fellow colleagues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Benevity?

It is very US centric, I feel, and does not have as much for Canada in respect to community involvement/volunteering. It was difficult to coordinate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
