Firstup vs. Broadcast Suite
Firstup
Email Blasts use a drag-and-drop email builder. All emails are responsive and pre-tested on over 60 different email clients and devices. Emails can be previewed, saved as drafts and scheduled to send anytime – no need to be at your computer or for it to be turned on.
Build and send custom newsletters in one message with configurable layouts.
Firstup
No need to replace your existing intranet. Instantly add personalization, notifications and A.I. learning with our native SharePoint web part (HTML standard plug-in for other intranets). No API or tech involvement necessary to add Broadcast Intranet Notifications & Personalization.
SharePoint is used as a content source only.
Mobile
Firstup
A native employee mobile app available for both iOS and Android. Includes your branding, personalized newsfeed, in-app notifications, universal content search, customizable links, A.I. learning plus many more mobile features. Priced separately so you don’t pay for something you don’t need.
Personalized newsfeed content based on pre-defined user attributes.
Microsoft Teams
Firstup
Deliver personalized news directly into Microsoft Teams for each employee by adding the Broadcast Teams app (included at no additional charge).
Integration requires custom software development for an additional charge.
Cross-Channel
Firstup
Broadcast’s intelligent content delivery (patent pending) allows communicators to publish content once and have it automatically delivered to Intranet, mobile and even email. Additionally, your channels are connected meaning your employees won’t see content they’ve already consumed on a different channel.
Publish to included communication channels from one platform. Channels do not include built-in A.I. learning or intelligence between channels.
Firstup
Broadcast Newsletters automatically curate content into a personalized digest for each employee. Using A.I., employees receive the required content they have yet to see plus what they’re interested in. Employees can pick the frequency, look and even language they’d like it delivered in. Automatically tested on 60+ different devices for you.
Build and send custom newsletters in one message with configurable layouts.
Audience Management
Firstup
Broadcast allows you to build dynamic segments (no IT required) based on any attribute (department, location, hire date, etc.) in your HRIS (Workday, PeopleSoft, SAP, ADP, etc.). Also supports integration with Active Directory and file uploads.
Supports existing distribution lists via custom integration with Microsoft Active Directory.
Content Management
Firstup
We all hate jumping back and forth between platforms to fix a title or update a resource. With Broadcast Content Manager, you can create, distribute, search, and edit your content in one location. Focus on maximizing your team’s content lifecycle and value, not just checking a box.
Publish to mobile app, newsletter and newsfeed through RSS feed. Employees can share curated company news.
Analytics
Firstup
Broadcast Insights includes the ability to create unlimited, customizable dashboards based on the KPIs that matter to you. All dashboards can be shared with your team and leadership. No additional charge for access to Insights. All metrics can be exported to Excel, CSV and accessed via API.
Predetermined external and internal dashboards and reports.
