Why Thrive.App Stands Out

Thrive.App stands out as the leading alternative to Meta's Workplace for employee communication and engagement. With over 12 years of experience in deploying successful employee engagement and communication apps, Thrive.App has established itself as a trusted platform for companies of all sizes, from SMEs to large enterprise organisations. Our platform is currently used by over a quarter of a million employees worldwide, including clients such as Avis Budget Group, Air France KLM, NHS, ASDA, DPD, Biffa, Santos Brasil, and more.

One of the key reasons why Thrive.App stands out is its ability to provide a secure, engaging, and easy-to-use platform for employee communication. With Thrive.App, you can stay in control of the conversations across your organisation, ensuring that the right information reaches the right teams. Our platform offers complete flexibility to customise your employee app, allowing you to tailor it to your specific needs. You can also open up or restrict conversation channels, creating a guided experience for your teams.

Another standout feature of Thrive.App is its audience segmentation capabilities. With this feature, you can easily segment your audiences based on various criteria such as job role, location, department, and more. By doing so, you ensure that only relevant content and information are shared with your teams, boosting app engagement and usage rates to 90% or more.

Thrive.App is dedicated to putting customers at the heart of everything we do. We understand the importance of launching employee apps with success and driving ongoing engagement. With our tried and tested ways to boost engagement and usage, we can help former Workplace from Meta users transition seamlessly to Thrive.App and enhance their employee engagement strategies.

Testimonials

Don't just take our word for it. Here are some testimonials about Thrive.App:

"Thrive.App stood out for us as the partner of choice over others because of their commitment to continuously developing their platform and to a schedule that worked for us, which was an important factor in our decision-making process. Three years on and it certainly seems like we made the right decision. Thrive.App’s help centre for building content was invaluable. And when you teamed that up with Thrive.App’s knowledge, customer service and some great examples of their past successes that they were able to share, it made us feel really confident in creating our app, successfully launching it, and reaching record uptake thereafter.”

Helen Hawkins
Head of Communications at Biffa

"The advantage of working with the team was their experience of deploying similar apps in a very quick turnaround time, this gave us the opportunity to bring our ideas to life very quickly."
