"First campaign with Sideways6 a roaring success"
5/5
What do you like best about Sideways 6?

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.

What do you dislike about Sideways 6?

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.

"Works out of the box with great support"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Sideways 6?

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.

What do you dislike about Sideways 6?

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.

"Excellent product from a friendly team"
4/5
What do you like best about Sideways 6?

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.

What do you dislike about Sideways 6?

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.

"Excellent ideas management tool and support"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Sideways 6?

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.

What do you dislike about Sideways 6?

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.
