Benevity Employee Groups vs Equitabl

Benevity Employee Groups is a web platform for employees to discover, join, create and manage employee-led groups. Organizations can arrange groups and subgroups by location, region or business unit. Budget tools cover fund distribution, forecasting, spending requests and real-time visibility. ERG leaders can coordinate events and RSVPs; employees can search events and add them to calendars. Leaders and administrators can share links and documents, while members can use discussion forums, surveys, polls, quizzes and posts with media or documents. Built-in reports cover group activity, membership changes and popular workforce topics. The product integrates with Benevity's giving, volunteering and micro-actions solutions. Pricing is custom-scoped and quoted to each organization; the Employee Groups plan has no listed price, and there is no free plan. Benevity says it issues SOC 1 Type II and SOC 2 Type II reports and undergoes annual independent evaluations of internal controls. The company describes its Enterprise Impact Platform as designed for large global enterprises, typically with thousands of employees and complex compliance requirements.
