It is operated by companies with high numbers of employees to build a better business, through the ideas generated by the users themselves, and then be executed by this body, it is a mutual help company-staff, since they offer their ideas the company pays them and the corporation ends up benefiting in a higher way due to their high expectations, what I like most is that this server connects to the Yammer platform, to obtain, manage and analyze ideas without requiring a learning from a software to our workers.

This management of employee opinion ideas is highly expensive, denying access to small companies because they cannot meet the monthly payment due, and even mid-category companies, making it a problem, since it does not present as many tools as Other cheaper software that have the same functionality and offer a greater amount of help, does not have automation in generating opinions for the realization of any future project.

I use a laptop and find the text is really small and difficult to read - could the font size be increased? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
one tool to pull data from different yammer groups to simplify my searches and report all in one easy manageable area. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The setup could be easier and more intuitive, challenges and other words do not appropriately define the characteristics of their purpose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In the project of set up idea management platform for global business services centres we valued the product for being cloud based solution that enables structuring gathered information and its management. Communication feature with ability to predefine notification templates to users to standardise response types, and scheduling notifications to engage and remind employees on the campaign.

Basic product lacked extended KPI measures on platform users (if reviews are run in a timely manner, where are the bottlenecks). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love the way that Sideways allows the team to manage the ideas through the stages, and statuses from end to end.
I also think that it is great that the Sideways team are always actively willing to listen to suggestions for improving the system and processes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As with all online systems there can be delays and timing issues at time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The interaction with customers from the team is excellent, whenever I had a question I could ask the live chat or email our customer success manager, and they would ensure to get to the bottom of any questions we had. I love the stages that you can set up to move submitted posts through to work like a pipeline and to more easily manage the flow of ideas through to review and outcomes. This also makes it possible to use Sideways6 as a presentation tool in terms of the dashboard to update stakeholders on the successes of the campaign. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The interface can be a bit boring to navigate, but is ultimately sleek and minimalistic - it does the job it is required to do. Sometimes I wish it had a few more gamification badges perhaps, and the number of clicks for certain actions can mean some processes are a little long. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like its simplicity and versatility. If you're a small comms team, Sideways 6 is like having an extra member, helping you with internal social. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The preview mode for scheduled posts could be better. The site doesn't seem to remember my login credentials, so I find myself having to type them in multiple times each day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's streamlined and largely intuitive - crisply designed and presented. Simplifies a process that would be laborious using older methods and encourages participation/collaborations across the organisation. And the human team behind it are enthusiastic, friendly and sharp. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Perhaps the interface could be simplified still further (for amateurs like me)? There were times when I was trying to do the right thing but in the wrong panel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sideways 6 provides powerful content management for Yammer groups and challenges that helps you keep track of ideas, whereas using Yammer itself may mean those great ideas could get lost.
The platform user interface is simple to understand and easy on the eye...always useful for if you're going to be looking at it for a long time!
Best of all is the relationship we've developed with the team at Sideways 6. They've always been on hand to support with any issues or questions we may have, and have been hugely receptive to feedback on how the platform could be developed to suit our ever-demanding needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Occasionally the system can lag / run slowly. We're aware this could be linked to the amount of data we're putting through it at any one time, however, and as above the team have always been on hand to support where needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Product is easy to use, makes capturing ideas from people all around the business simple and easy to review. Attentive staff who make sure they cater for individual needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing to note. Anything that we have required to change has been done so very quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The introduction of Sideways 6 in my company enabled a new way of working, allowing the whole organisation (globally) to quickly and easily share their ideas throughout our business. What appealed to us was the focus on the key three pillars of our organisation: ideation, insights and innovation. We're a consultancy based on London, UK and our clients depend on us to be their creative arm; Sideways 6 allows us to become more profitable, by sharing ideas for new projects, new ideas around the office, new ideas within the industry, in one central location. It also helps our organisation be more engaged with our employees; peoples voices are actually heard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We were concious about implementing the solution and thought to ourselves, it is enough? The success of the implementation is measured by converting ideas into actionable movements and how effectively a persons voice is heard. Perhaps our only dislike is the lack of analytical features supporting the application. However, we have regular contact with the team at Sideways 6 and the account managers say they this is part of a next release. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
