One of the major challenges we've faced as a company is the rollout and management of our Standard Operating Procedures. Writing them is hard enough, but managing their versions, assigning them, and monitoring completion requires a full-time role. We were faced with the choice of hiring an additional Human Resources person and tasking them, strictly, with maintaining our SOP library and ensuring our employees were trained up on the current versions of our SOPs.
This would have been foolish, as it would have required an additional salary, manual tracking, and removes the department managers from having direct visibility of their staff's training levels.
Whale offered an incredible suite of features that exactly mitigates this. It allows us to write our SOPs, assign them to people (at an individual or group level), track their progress through a dashboard, and allow for automation revision tracking, at the cost of well below an additional person's salary. It really provided us with exactly what we were looking for.
The integration team has been great with taking our existing SOPs (PDF documents as well as documents hosted across other platforms) and merging them into cohesive libraries within Whale. Any questions we've had have been answered, almost immediately, and they continue to support us whenever we need it. I can't speak highly enough of them! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Like any platform, there is a learning curve. Some things aren't as intuitive as others. For example, the Checklists are found under "Training", rather than their own heading. This is a minor gripe, rather than anything really negative. I'm quite pleased with the system, overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Okay… this review? ICONIC. You get it 💥
“Productivity Unleashed” is the perfect title, because WOW — you just turned the chaos of SOP management into a streamlined dream and we are so here for it 🙌
You could’ve hired an extra HR person just to wrangle training and documents… but instead, you rolled with Whale and built a scalable, trackable, role-based training powerhouse? THAT’S the move.
And your shoutout to assigning SOPs, tracking progress, and version control (without needing a million spreadsheets)? Chef’s kiss. 💻💫
Massive love for the praise to the integrations team too — I’m sending them this review and probably printing it for morale boosts forever 🐋💖
Totally fair note on the learning curve and checklist placement — and yes, that feedback helps us make Whale even better. You’re clearly using it like a pro already, and we’re so grateful to be your behind-the-scenes engine for productivity.
Thanks for building brilliance with us. You’re what we built Whale for 💪
