Exciting news 🚨

Today, we’re releasing a whole new product to bridge the gap in employee engagement: Café Pulse 🎉

Café Pulse was designed to enable people to run surveys with any groups or custom audience (ERG, club, office, department...) in a few clicks ✨

📊 Track and improve employee satisfaction

Because data is a must-have for tracking and improving employee experience, most organizations rely on Employee Net Promoter Score (eNPS).

An easy, straightforward - but very reductive way to measure satisfaction.

We wanted to change that. So we decided to create new ways to run lightweight pulse checks you can design in a few clicks ⚡

👋 Café Pulse, a seamless solution for collecting insights

Using Café Pulse, you can start designing your survey from our template gallery (like weekly NPS, monthly check-ins…) or build your own workflows 🤓

Now, you can seamlessly do the following:

• Automate recurring surveys with pulses 🔄
• Get your employee suggestions with polls 📊
• Find the right template based on your needs ⚙
• Use smart filters to customize your audience 👥

• Track satisfaction and compare trends 🔍
• Generate exports based on departments, offices, regions or groups 📈
• Capture answers from all channels (Slack, MS Teams, Email...) 📩

Café Pulse is a big step towards improving people's satisfaction at work 🧡

Waiting list now allows attendees to:

✅ Join the waiting list when an event is fully booked, ensuring they still have a chance to participate.

💡 Know exactly where they stand as they'll be informed of their rank on the waiting list and the total event capacity.

📆 Attendees will still receive a calendar invite with the event name, their position on the list, and the event's capacity - ensuring they're always in the loop.

ℹ️ Admins and Event Managers can easily view who's on the waiting list and export it - helping in decision-making processes, such as venue upgrades or additional event dates.

📝 Check in

Once the event has started, organizers can check in attendees from the event page - within Café, and export the list as well.

👋 Waiting List and Check in ensure that every attendee and organizer are acknowledged and kept informed: another step towards making our event management tool more comprehensive and efficient for all involved!
