Comments and comment threading

The world of social media has created a conversation culture, where we’re all used to adding comments to deepen conversations, add our opinion and express our emotions about the stories we read. 

Comments on things like blogs and social media posts allow discussions to happen while encouraging engagement between two or more people.

How it works

Employees can add comments to the bottom of a blog post or on a particular recognition moment on the social recognition wall.

Comment threading is essential to allow people to easily follow the structure of the conversations happening. Employees can quickly add in their thoughts to a particular thread, allowing for viewers to engage in the conversation and follow it from start to finish.

Threading provides a great user experience, where people don’t have to search through a bunch of comments. 

Employees can add text or even emojis to comments, too.

How can comments be used by employers?

Employers can use comments on their platform to interact with employees and build a community within their platform. 

By allowing comments, employers begin to create a two-way dialogue and therefore an open and honest, transparent culture; one of the foundational blocks of the Engagement Bridge.

What control do administrators have over the comments?

Encouraging open and honest communication is a great way to discover how your employees are really feeling. However, if employers do see an inappropriate comment made by an employee, they can use the {COMMENT ADMIN} permission to delete comments instantly.
