Pros
Butterfly is easy to use with a fantastic support team and has made a huge difference at our company.
I like the 1 to 10 scale and how it changes colors. The color differential between questions are nice as well and it makes it easier to interpret.
I don't need a Phd in HR to understand the data, and my team really appreciate the user experience. I've been using it with slack, which makes it super easy to spread out the messages to my team.
Cons
A bit redundant which is a bit annoying sometimes.
I have so much turnover lately that I am having a hard time keeping up with adding and deleting employees.
Otherwise, it's either "pretend all is going well" or "I complain but nothing happens.
