Health track - and rewards!

Health track - and rewards!

Pros

Easy to use and intuitive. Big fan of apps like Optimity that don't require daily login for them to do their job and Optimity is one of them. Great integrations. Clean design.

Cons

No major gripes about Optimity. Only desire would be for more health metrics but this would be more of a nice to have.

The customer service people were really nice and helpful as our contract sunsetted. Appreciated the referral to Google and the time they took to answer my questions.

Pros

I loved Optimizely. So easy to set up a test and watch it run!

Cons

Well, I started using it a while back. Loved it. But, we eventually were forced to upgrade and it became way out of our ballpark. Too bad. Good tool if you can afford irt.

Although it is a great tool to keep you fit and help you exercise, the app is not the best

Reviewed on 2018/01/15

Pros

There are many great things about optimity. I think it is great to have an app and check off things you do on a daily basis. I think it is also great to learn new activities that I can take away on a daily basis and use regularly in my life. I like that there are tips as well that I can take further and do my research on, that helps me eat better, sleep better and practice different forms on meditation. I have learnt how important it is to exercise and eat better after this app which again is very important.

Cons

Although there are many great things about this app, there are also a few negative things as well. This app can be quite hard to navigate. For example, when you want to get your points it takes a few weeks or months to actually get the tangible item. That is the least of it. The picture portion of the app is not the best either, I don't think there really is a point in it. Maybe we should substitute the picture portion with something else, I do like the survey aspect of it, but I think something else should be added to get more points and an education form. Like pop quizzes?

Exercise motivation

Exercise motivation

Pros

The fact that I can break the goal list in to chunks rather than one session makes optimity more accessible

Cons

The current lack of rewards, I believe it was to switch to a monthly subscription service that allowed earning more rewards but this has not happened yet

Awareness of some activities that could improve overall health, that may not have been known before. Accountability for water intake / step count.

Pros

The software is user friendly, and easy to understand. People enjoy the tasks, and the rewards, though have asked for varied rewards.

Cons

The tasks seem to repeat frequently, so some of our users have become bored of the app / program and only complete the tasks for the points / cash out.

Good health resource

Reviewed on 2021/01/18

Pros

I gave a small rating for this software because I haven't used it very long. But so far I enjoy having a way to hold myself accountable for a daily step goal. I also feel the quizzes and information that goes with them is very useful and helpful.

Cons

I like least about this software, the earning and rewards. The amount of diamonds/points earn is acceptable back the fact that they can only be used for raffles instead of for sure rewards is disappointing.

Pros

I like the fun ways the app motivates me to be more active, the connectivity options, and the rewards!

Cons

I find it hard to keep up with at times because of the huge number of activities. Also, doing some of the activities at my desk isn't always possible without garnering unwanted attention in an open workplace.

Great concept, poor execution

Reviewed on 2018/01/18

Pros

I like the idea of promoting good behavior in employees and coworkers. Optimity makes it easier to start good habits and stick with them.

Cons

I don't love the reward structure, it is difficult to accumulate enough rewards to redeem for anything of value. Also, do not like that a health app promotes constant phone checking.

Pros

Optimity is great. it helps improve yourself on the basis of the scientific principles of “rewarding behaviour “. and it has broad range of activities to help us in various aspects of our lives, from sleep, to mood, physical health including weight. the user interface is absolutely beautiful and the app just works without crashes etc. available on the web and mobile devices, whiich comes very handy when you’re on the fly. and last but not the least, is compatible with my microsoft band (and a long list of other health monitoring tools of the sort)

Cons

easy to cheat, means easy to just not carry activity and still get the reward
requires pictures at times which is just an extra headache
rewards are region locked to canada, some to usa.

Pros

The ability to set reminders to complete activities in order to ensure that you are staying active throughout the day. The thought of instant gratification is amazing. Getting points for staying active is amazing considering that the points will allow you to redeem for a gift card.

Cons

There is no reminder that you can set to remind you to drink enough water throughout the day.

More Social than Serious

Reviewed on 2018/04/19

Pros

This app is great for beginners or those who may be trying to get back on track with their fitness regimen. It does remind you to move around and drink more water throughout the day, but it really doesn't stand out. IMO, it is more of a socializing fitness app than a serious one.

Cons

This app is buggy at times and freezes a lot on the Android platform. It also drains your battery, Android and Apple.
