Blink vs. Workvivo: The clear choice for engaging every employee
Choosing between Blink and Workvivo? Blink delivers faster adoption, more integrations, and an experience your entire workforce will actually use — whether they’re at a desk, on the floor, or in the field.
Seamless, mobile-first access
Blink’s Hub with native single sign-on gives every employee — frontline or desk-based — 1-tap access to payslips, schedules, HR tools, and more. No multi-step navigation or wasted clicks, just instant access from anywhere. Workvivo’s intranet-style setup requires more digging, which slows adoption.
Effortless for admins to manage
Drag-and-drop content into the Hub, delegate uploads to Ops or HR managers, post on behalf of aliases, and refresh branding easily. Blink is built for speed and simplicity, so admins spend less time solving “where do I find this?” and more time on strategic work.
Proven adoption strategies
Blink specializes in driving adoption for distributed & frontline workforces —groups often left behind by intranet-style tools. Our manager-led activation playbooks and hands-on rollout support ensure every employee actually uses the platform, not just office staff.
Analytics that drive business outcomes
We don’t just track logins. Blink’s Customer Success team partners with you to turn analytics into action—helping improve onboarding, reduce turnover, increase self-service, and boost engagement where it matters most.
Customizable to your culture
From colors and logos to seasonal themes, Blink can be fully branded to feel like your own. This level of customization builds employee trust, strengthens culture, and drives long-term adoption.

FAQs: Blink vs Workvivo
Why do organizations switch from Unily to Blink?
Organizations switch from Unily to Blink because Blink is modern, simple, and mobile-first — fast to deploy, easy for comms teams to manage, and designed for the entire workforce, not just office-based employees. Unily functions like a legacy intranet — complex, slow to deploy, and difficult for employees to adopt. Companies find that Unily’s complexity and long rollouts create barriers to adoption, while Blink drives engagement from day one.
How is Blink better for mobile adoption than Unily?
Blink was built mobile-first, achieving 90–98% adoption across enterprises with desk-based and frontline employees. Employees use it multiple times a day to access tools and updates. Unily’s intranet-centric design makes its mobile app heavier and less intuitive, limiting employee engagement.
Does Blink support employees who don't have corporate email addresses?
Yes. Blink includes native authentication with secure one-time passcodes, so employees without email can still log in. This ensures 100% of the workforce is connected — something Unily requires extra steps or external providers to achieve.
