Solving Key Frontline Challenges
){kind=icon}
IT-Dependent Setup and Management with Viva Engage
Viva Engage requires IT involvement for setup, group permissions, and ongoing support — making content updates slow and cumbersome. Flip’s intuitive admin controls empower HR and Comms teams to manage content and users directly without relying on IT.

Not Designed for Frontline Workers
Viva Engage is optimised for office-based employees with limited features for mobile, frontline staff. Flip’s Mobile-First Design ensures instant updates, alerts, and notifications reach all employees — even those without corporate email addresses.

Complex Navigation on Mobile Devices
Viva Engage’s integrations with Teams and SharePoint make navigating multiple platforms difficult for frontline employees. Flip offers a One-App Experience where employees access everything they need in a single, easy-to-use platform.

Email Requirement for User Access
Viva Engage requires an email address for account creation, limiting access for frontline staff. Flip’s BYOD Support enables fast employee sign-up without requiring company email accounts — ensuring faster adoption and improved communication.

No Offline Access for Frontline Staff
Viva Engage struggles with offline functionality, making it difficult for employees without constant connectivity to stay informed. Flip’s Offline Mode allows employees to access key information and updates even without internet access.
