Rypple is easy to use and has a great workflow
“It’s easy to use and has a great workflow. In fact, it has to be easy to use because the point is for non-Gen Y’ers to embrace more feedback for Gen Y’ers. Rypple’s tag line of ‘a little feedback goes a long way’ is the heart and soul of their software. Make feedback simple to improve the workplace and the work lives of Gen Y’ers who want it.”

Six lessons to learn from Rypple
“Rypple is as remarkable for what it doesn’t do as it is for what it does do. It doesn’t constrain people to a set of pre-defined questions, nor does it determine who should give you feedback or when you receive it… By leaving the tool so open, the Rypple folks left room for users to use the product in ways they couldn’t have imagined, such as using it to survey customers or to take an anonymous vote on something.”
April Dunford, RocketWatcher.com
-
Rypple is brilliant!
“Rypple is brilliant! Your introductory documentation is among the best I have ever seen and you seem to really understand (and are reactive to) the needs of your users. Great Job!”

Gen Ys love Rypple
“My first reaction, I admit, was a little skeptical (okay, maybe even negative) — as you know, I’m a Boomer. My gut was saying “Ugh — why would I want to subject myself to that?” (Interpretation – to being “judged” multiple times a day). And the anonymous part felt really threatening. The only thing worse than being continually judged is being continually judged anonymously. But the Ys at the conference were loving the service — already sending out requests for feedback after their presentations. And, as I thought about it, I recognize that my initial reaction was a classic Boomer view — rooted in judgment and assessment — while they were busy learning.”
Tammy Erickson, Harvard Business Blog

Rypple provides a quick, on-demand method to help workers improve their performance
“Rypple’s digital interface lets it foster open and honest responses that might not be given face to face: feedback can be given anonymously, only to be viewed by the person who requested it….. For offices that use it responsibly and accept criticisms made, Rypple provides a quick, on-demand method to help workers improve their performance.”
Stas Zlobinski contributing to Springwise

Rypple is awesome
“The product is awesome, I think your team really has something. I’m impressed with Rypple; feedback is something everyone wants but there is a definite lack of infrastructure for it to happen off-the-cuff, and most importantly, quickly.”
