The three kinds

What employee advocacy software is

Employee advocacy software helps a company get its people to post on their own social profiles, and shows whether they do. Every product on the market is one of three kinds, and they ask very different things of each person.

KindWhat each person doesFails whenExamples
Tracking only, nothing to installNothing. Their public profile is read once a dayYou need it to write, queue or attribute postsGroowth
AI writing tool with team featuresSign in, connect LinkedIn, write or approve draftsThe team is not on LinkedIn, or stops signing inSupergrow, Taplio
Advocacy platform with a content libraryJoin the platform, connect accounts, share from the libraryPeople stop opening it, and reshares get little engagementEveryoneSocial, Sociabble, Vulse

Examples are described by what each vendor says it is built for. Prices and plans change: check each vendor's own site.

Tracking only, nothing to install

A board that reads each person's public profile every day and counts their posts against a goal, so you see who posts without asking anyone to adopt a tool.

AI writing tool with team features

A LinkedIn writing assistant that drafts posts in each person's voice and schedules them, with team plans that add approvals and a leaderboard.

Advocacy platform with a content library

A platform where marketing curates approved posts and employees reshare them, with points, leaderboards and reporting on reach and clicks.

Method

How the picker scores

  1. Each job you tick is scored from 0 to 3 for each kind: 3 when the kind is built for it, 0 when it cannot do it at all.
  2. The fit is the points earned out of the points possible, then adjusted for what you said people will accept. A platform measures only the people who adopted it, so nothing to install halves the score of the kinds that need a login.
  3. Writing tools of this kind are LinkedIn first, so other networks lower their score. Quote based platforms lose ground under five people, and per seat tools past a hundred.
  4. Ties go to the kind that asks the least of each person. The ranking is computed in your browser. When you ask for it, your answers are counted with no cookie and nothing that names you, so we know the tool is used.
Questions

Asked often

What is the #1 employee advocacy software?

None is number one for every team. A company that wants employees to reshare approved posts needs a platform with a content library. A team that wants each person to write their own posts needs a writing tool. A team that only needs to see who posts, without asking anyone to install anything, needs tracking. The picker on this page ranks the three for your answers.

How much does employee advocacy software cost?

Platforms built around a content library, such as EveryoneSocial and Sociabble, quote on request, usually per user and per year. Writing tools list their prices per seat on their own pages. Groowth is free for 3 tracked profiles, then Pro $19, Team $49, Agency $99 a month. Check each vendor's current pricing before you compare.

Is Groowth an employee advocacy platform?

No. Groowth has no content library, no scheduler and no writing assistant, and it never shows reach or leads. It tracks the public LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube profiles of your team every day: followers, posts and posting goals, with nothing to connect or install. Teams use it to run a program without a platform, or to measure one that a platform runs.
