“Since I was Founding CEO at Jive Software over a decade ago, community software has been focused solely on ‘engagement’ as the primary driver. In this era, however, community must drive business goals – to be an aspirin, not a vitamin,” said Dave Hersh, CEO. “By focusing on target vertical needs instead of ‘one size fits all’ community, we are able to connect the dots between engagement and business outcomes.”

Mobilize got its start powering digital movements, which required the ability to achieve fast, clear and focused milestones through local groups and global conversations. It’s the only online community platform that activates people around shared purpose, which is why it’s well suited for use cases such as distributed sales organizations, non-profits, professional networks and associations.
“As a manufacturer with a network of retailers served by sales reps, we needed to find a 21st-century solution to reach more people, in more places, more often,” said Bob Muenkel, Vice President Retail Engagement, Resident Home. “We chose Mobilize after researching several options. They offered the best suite of functionality, design and access to help us achieve best-in-class sales and training support in real-time at an affordable price.”
