## Reviews

### "Planbox, an incredibly customizable and robust platform." — 5.0/5

> **Nicolas** | *12 March 2018* | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Platform is robust, no downtime during our first challenge.&#10;Platform is incredidly customizable, we can adjust pretty much what we want.&#10;Access to people at Planbox is easy and fast.&#10;Intengration between our corporate systems and Planbox has been done quite easily.
> 
> **Cons**: Configuring the platform for our first challenge has been a bit more challenging than we thought it would be but we made it through thanks to good support staff availability.&#13;&#10;There's some many things we can customize that some features could gain from being pre-configured.

### "Great journey so far" — 4.0/5

> **Arne** | *5 January 2017* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: High level of intuitivity, just the right level of functional volume.&#13;&#10;Great search engine and similarity checks between ideas.
> 
> **Cons**: Configurabitilty from customer side could be improved. Many interesting configuration changes need to be done by supplier (to keep changes for updates or due to missing gui).&#13;&#10;Integration with other translation engines beyond google would be helpful.
> 
> Based on a very detailed requirements specification, we realized a very quick implementation of HYPE Enterprise at CLAAS, also including specialized modifications and configurations to the software.&#13;&#10;We are running Hype Enterprise now for one year, with very good feedback from our colleagues. By a user survey, we received the answer that the functionality and intuitivity of the software is very well appreciated. Very few bugs have been reported yet.&#13;&#10;On the change management side, the benefits of Hype Enterprise facilitate the change in colleagues mind set. However, there is a lot of effort needed, to keep the process running. Our best experiences yet, we received by campaigns closely linked to planned and existing product development projects. The ideas in these campaigns are well appreciated and often realized or at least lead us to new patents.&#13;&#10;A bigger roll-out of the system is planned in this year - let's see where our journey will lead us...

### "Hype really supports & contributes to our new program" — 4.0/5

> **Nina** | *5 January 2017* | Medical Devices | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of use and the possible complexity of the ranking system/campaigns.
> 
> **Cons**: The unclarity of the backend in some cases...it's hard to find what I'm looking for some time. Also, the limit of licenses is annoying for us; I'd wish for a different pricing model.
> 
> The software and also the consulting of Hype really support us with implementing and pushing our new innovation process. It's really great too especially join the attached network behind Hype (i.e. Inno-Managers Forum). We could benefit from listening to and imitating some methods/measures from other companies and Hype itself.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;The software is always under development and constantly improved. Criticism or questions are always welcome and we feel supported in what we need from the software although we're a rather small company.

### "A customizable, robust platform  boasting an user-friendly intuitive design." — 5.0/5

> **Lynne** | *9 November 2017*
> 
> **Pros**: What sets Planbox apart from others is:&#13;&#10;Focus on collaboration (offering a multitude of customizable features/tools) &#13;&#10;Automatic workflow (promotes collaboration, advocates transparency, minimizes administrative burden).&#13;&#10;Idea evaluation (efficiently view/communicate the stacking and ranking of ideas.&#13;&#10;Extensive reporting engine (customizable reporting, analytics, dashboards)
> 
> **Cons**: There is no perfect platform/software on the market that optimally performs 100% of the time .   When  performance issues occur, Planbox has a dedicated support team that provides immediate support to effectively and efficiently resolve the issue.  Additionally, Planbox provides a method to submit suggestions/ideas for features, enhancements, and/or tools, which are reviewed on a consistent basis for consideration.   You couldn't ask more of company who is willing to listen to ("hear") its customer's voice; and take actionable measures to improve their product/offering.

### "Planbox allows us to help centralize our innovation intelligence to make the best decisions" — 5.0/5

> **Fred** | *30 November 2017* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We leverage Planbox which brings innovation management to the next level by putting intelligence right at the decision points that are critical to developing breakthrough ideas. We have a very positive experience using Planbox and we have achieved tremendous ROI.  We needed a highly structured process of innovation to succeed and Planbox allowed us to do this inside the solution and deliver on our needs.
> 
> **Cons**: We go out to the business units, discern their needs, validate their needs and work to provide solutions to them that are innovative, Planbox allows us to work with specific experts and improve our ability to make better business decisions aligned with our strategy.
> 
> Managing innovation, grouping innovation categories, centralizing innovation, managing collaboration and developing Innovation Pipeline and portfolio reports. &#13;&#10;To trigger innovation, we have to look outside of the company. Already there are cunning startups that have looked at each part of the supply chain of the insurance industry and disrupted them. The way they are changing the game is transformational. We, as an industry, can no longer ignore these active threats
