Excellent tool for communicating across the organziation. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Debbie C. | Library Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 21, 2018 **What do you like best about Jostle?** Very easy to use and everything staff need is in one place. A successful way to communicate across the district. And customer service is nice, friendly, and helpful. Plus they are always listening to input and improving the site. **What do you dislike about Jostle?** The one thing that could be improved is writing a blank article. It takes a little manipulation to format in the way I like but it's a minor inconvenience. Otherwise, there's not much I dislike. We don't use the library or file sharing because we use Google Suite. But we are looking into integration. **Recommendations to others considering Jostle:** Absolutely wonderful support. Cheerful people to work with who don't just leave you once you're set-up. They improve and upgrade on a regular basis that actually make sense and are useful. What a refreshing change. Jostle makes all the difference in our library's ability to share, communicate, and collaborate. **What problems is Jostle solving and how is that benefiting you?** Jostle has been a timesaver for communicating across the district. We have three locations and 34 employees...so not a large organization. But we use Jostle for most of our district-wide communication, sharing, and collaborating. We require that staff check it daily for updates and more and more staff are posting and sharing. Plus, it's easy to go back to see who has (or hasn't) read something and there's a permanent record of what has been posted. **Official Response from Brad Palmer:** > Wow, we've come a long way together since your earlier review way back in 2018. Thanks for providing this kind update. Adding Library deeply integrated with your Google Drive will be a huge win. It let's you organize your authoratative content out of the jumble of stuff that's likely in your Google Drive. And it comes with Ask a Question which uses AI to generate answers from that authoritative content. That's going to save time and reduce confusion for everyone! ### 2. People-First Platform That Boosts Communication, Connection, and Employee Engagement **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Chirag P. | Software Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 30, 2026 **What do you like best about Jostle?** I like that Jostle prioritizes people and workplace culture. Its focus on connecting employees, improving communication, and fostering engagement makes it a tool that supports both productivity and a positive employee experience. **What do you dislike about Jostle?** The biggest challenge is ensuring consistent employee engagement. Without active participation, the platform becomes less effective. It can also add to notification fatigue, and teams may still need separate tools for task management or more specialized collaboration. **What problems is Jostle solving and how is that benefiting you?** Jostle helps solve the challenge of keeping employees connected, informed, and engaged, especially in organizations where teams are distributed across different locations or departments. By centralizing company updates, recognition, and communication, it makes it easier to stay aligned and feel connected to the broader organization. For me, that means I spend less time searching for information, have better visibility into what's happening across the company, and feel more engaged with my colleagues and workplace culture. **Official Response from Brad Palmer:** > What a well considered review Chirag. Thanks! It sounds like adding Jostle Tasks can help you. It includes an API and is a Zapier endpoint. Please email us at support@jostle.me to schedule a call. We can also share some engagement best practices at the same time. ### 3. User-Friendly Platform for Team Communication **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Heidi K. | Office Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 22, 2026 **What do you like best about Jostle?** What I like best about Jostle is how clear and easy the platform is to use. The UI/UX is very user-friendly, which made it simple for the team to adopt, especially for new starters. The support and onboarding experience were also great. Ana, our Customer Success Manager, was always proactive, helpful, and regularly shared updates and tips to make the platform even easier to use. The system performed well, integrations were straightforward, and overall it provided good value for improving internal communication and employee engagement. It was also great to see ongoing updates and improvements to the functionality over time. **What do you dislike about Jostle?** There were no significant drawbacks with Jostle. The only challenge we experienced was driving consistent engagement and usage across all staff, which is more about internal adoption than the platform itself. **What problems is Jostle solving and how is that benefiting you?** Jostle helps solve the challenge of keeping internal communication centralised and accessible for all employees. It brings company updates, resources, and announcements into one place, which makes it easier for staff to stay informed and aligned. For us, this improved visibility and made onboarding new starters much smoother, as they had a clear, easy-to-navigate hub for information from day one. **Official Response from Brad Palmer:** > Thanks for the kind review Heidi. Yes, Ana's great! ### 4. Jostle Review User Experience **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ami G. | IT Systems Lead, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 28, 2025 **What do you like best about Jostle?** Jostle has landed well within our organisation. The platform is very user-friendly: its visual layout makes it easy to navigate and quickly find what you need. The platform's design and structure support our corporate vision, and the content libraries are straightforward to locate and use when uploading articles. Staff particularly appreciate the hints and tips that present themselves. Customer support has been positive as well, with quick response times and support analysts who are knowledgeable and intuitive. **What do you dislike about Jostle?** The overall experience has been very positive. **What problems is Jostle solving and how is that benefiting you?** Before we introduced Jostle we didn't have an intranet that supported staff collaboration. This platform now connects staff, we have user friendly libraries and news articles that keep staff well informed. We also have a staff directory which was missing previously. Staff feel more connected with Jostle. **Official Response from Brad Palmer:** > Thanks for the kind review Amy. It's great that the hints and tips are helping—I've shared your feedback with the team involved. Brad ### 5. Great intranet **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kimberley B. | Knowledge and Information Research Analyst, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 22, 2025 **What do you like best about Jostle?** There are many features which I think come in handy for our company on Jostle. It is great that we can share news items to not only reduce our email traffic but also make sure that communication does not get lost within emails. I particularly like the 'shout-out' feature, as we use this to thank colleagues or share a lovely review written by the client. I think the people function is fantastic for new starters, narrowing down who is in what team if you cannot remember names. I think Jostle is easy to use and is used daily in our organisation. **What do you dislike about Jostle?** As an organisation we do not really need our 'primary org units' within our profiles, this is something we use to distribute legal journals to particular groups of people. There isn't an option currently to take this away from profiles. **What problems is Jostle solving and how is that benefiting you?** Staff communication on technology changes, current awareness and even information about our annual staff conference - Jostle slows email traffic. Jostle is the one piece of technology that staff can use outside of their work laptop, this was extremely useful during COVID-19 in 2020 as managers could communicate with those who did not have their work laptop when we went into lockdown. **Official Response from Brad Palmer:** > Thanks so much for taking time to update your review Kimberley. Shout Outs are the best! Primary Org Unit are not be visible in User Profiles for people that don't have one. If you could please reach out to us at support@jostle.me we can help you sort this. ### 6. It goes from strength to strength **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Fiona K. | Executive Officer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 16, 2021 **What do you like best about Jostle?** Our organisations engagement with Jostle keeps growing. Its such an easy platform to use and these days no explanation needed when people are giving access to start using different areas - that's a first! I like that the Jostle team are always looking at ways of making things better and when they launch something new, it's easy to use, you are well informed that its coming and what it is and it just flows in with no issues. We have just never had a hiccup and its been quite a few years now. The News section is particularly important for us - it has not only become what used to be essentially our staff newsletter, it's where we post things about the business, where our MD can blog with the staff about what's happening and its all instantaneous and super easy for all the staff to use. Our auto activity feed with birthdays and anniversaries is great for instant feedback. Love it! **What do you dislike about Jostle?** I still haven't found a dislike. It keeps getting better and better. The longer it has stayed as our choice of how we share news and to store things in the library centrally for all staff, the more important it becomes and the more engagement we have with the platform. It wasn't hard to grow engagement from when we first implemented, but now it is just part of the way we communicate with our staff. **Recommendations to others considering Jostle:** The onboarding support that Jostle provides was excellent and its such an easy platform to use that our staff have just loved it and started contributing straight away. **What problems is Jostle solving and how is that benefiting you?** In an organisation that is country-wide, has matrix management, over 20 offices, and runs under one management system, it can be tricky to get all your staff engaged and make them feel like they are all part of one team. We launched the new site a couple of weeks ago and staff were onto it straight away. The ability for staff to interact with the site themselves will be great for our culture and the different ways we can communicate with staff through the activity feed, News and Discussions will only lead to better communication throughout the organisation. **Official Response from Brad Palmer:** > Thanks for your detailed review Fiona. "It just flows", love that. ### 7. Easy to Use with a Clear, Well-Organised Interface **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Peter H. | IT Director, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 25, 2026 **What do you like best about Jostle?** Our organisation has adopted it successfully, largely because it’s easy to use and offers a clear, well-organised interface that makes navigation straightforward. **What do you dislike about Jostle?** The formatting options when creating a new article feel limited, and the text blocks can be cumbersome to use. **What problems is Jostle solving and how is that benefiting you?** We had struggled to find the right intranet platform, as many options were overly complex and limited in functionality. Jostle provides exactly what we need. **Official Response from Brad Palmer:** > Peter thanks for taking time to provide this feedback. Simple with all the features you need, that's indeed what we are trying to achieve. Our design team would like to learn more from your experience with the Text Block. Could you please reach out to them at product@jostle.me? ### 8. Easy to Customize, Affordable Company-Wide Facebook with Smooth SharePoint Integration **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kelly H. | Merchandise Associate, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 25, 2026 **What do you like best about Jostle?** I love how easy it is to use and customize. It feels like an affordable, company-wide Facebook, and it integrates smoothly with our SharePoint system. **What do you dislike about Jostle?** Sometimes, uploading items to the library takes a bit longer than expected. **What problems is Jostle solving and how is that benefiting you?** Communication within our small company, with a mix of remote and in-office employees, was difficult before we started using Jostle. Now it’s streamlined and much easier to manage. **Official Response from Brad Palmer:** > I love it when we help customers sort their SharePoint challenges. Thanks for the 5 stars Kelly. Brad ### 9. Versatile Platform for Team Engagement and Seamless Communication **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ben I. | Head of Communications, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 27, 2025 **What do you like best about Jostle?** I love the variety that it offers from news posts, to quick discussions, places to get to know the team better or link off to other areas of the organisation quickly. **What do you dislike about Jostle?** It would be good to have a setting where you can have fixed notifications on some items. To explain.. we have a staff team where we are sharing a variety of content. Some content is very important whereas other content is fun and light hearted. The danger is that the staff team can go into their settings and change their preferences so that don't get notified. This means they may miss key content. I would love to be able to to have a feature where we could set notifications for important content that cannot be turned off by the staff member so that we know they are receiving the content. **What problems is Jostle solving and how is that benefiting you?** It's bringing the team more together through discussions, fun, engagement, and celebration. We used to just have a weekly email, but this is far more interactive and team morale has gone up because of it. **Official Response from Brad Palmer:** > We appreciate your review Ben. We do have two ways to solve the notification problem you cite: 1. Notify: This emails and sends a phone notification to everyone that can see the item, in a way that they cannot opt out of. 2. @mentions. Reach out to me at brad@jostle.me and I'll show you these in action. ### 10. Empowers Intranet Communication Seamlessly **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Bennett S. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 07, 2026 **What do you like best about Jostle?** I love using Jostle for our company intranet. It helps us share our internal communications, org charts, and library documentation. I like the People page and find the org chart and bios really interactive and helpful. They assist employees in navigating and learning the company's structure, while the bios help ease the awkwardness of meeting someone for the first time in a meeting. Plus, the initial setup was easy, and I have no complaints at all—love it. **What do you dislike about Jostle?** nothin! **What problems is Jostle solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use Jostle for sharing internal communications, org charts, and library documentation. The interactive org chart and bios help employees navigate company structure, and ease small talk in meetings. **Official Response from Brad Palmer:** > Your "navigate the organization" perspective is an important one that often gets overlooked. Thanks for sharing that!
