Idea Management Software

Both Wazoku solutions, Idea Management and Idea Spotlight, are web-based idea software that helps businesses of all sizes to uncover, filter and prioritise the best ideas. Because inspiration can come from anywhere, our software enables everyone within a business create, share and evaluate ideas with an equal voice.

Idea management software enables the structured capture and evaluation of ideas within an organisation. The benefit for companies of any size lies in the ability to select and refine ideas that offer the greatest potential business value. Companies that manage this process effectively enjoy increased revenue and a more engaged, productive workforce.

Idea management software allows you to generate ideas as part of dedicated innovation campaigns, or through continuous idea capture, or both.

Wazoku Idea Spotlight and Idea Box are idea management tools that help you to discover the best ideas within your business through the use of peer-driven review, collaboration and smart organisational routing. Idea Box is ideal for small businesses who want to access a version if idea software that will allow them to receive basic feedback whereas Idea Spotlight provides a unique ‘Recommendation Engine’ that learns about the structure of your organisation and matches the right influencers, experts and decision-makers to the right ideas. Unlike most idea software, you can use Idea Spotlight for both focused idea generation campaigns and ongoing capture.

Transparent, collaborative process

All too often idea management software simply provides an online version of the traditional office suggestion box. Ideas go in, a designated person or team read through the suggestions, and a few are selected for further development. Unfortunately this type of system leaves no room for wider collaboration and employees are often unaware of the outcome of their idea.

The best idea management software provides a more transparent and democratic process. Those that also encourage collaboration offer even greater value, as they tend to deliver more complete ideas, resulting in quicker implementation and broader employee buy-in.

Idea Box and Idea Spotlight not only makes the idea management process completely transparent, democratic and social, it also allows you to reward those who suggest and develop new ideas. And our Enterprise solutions allow you to take that even further to white label and customise the software to your personal business needs.

Software is not enough

Simply providing the right tools to capture and sort ideas is not enough to sustain an ongoing innovation programme. Companies considering idea management software need to think about ways to initially encourage employee involvement and develop a culture of innovation over time.

At Wazoku, we don’t just give you software. We offer a full suite of services to make sure that idea management is understood and embraced across your organisation. We’ll help you to understand the barriers to innovation and how to overcome them, as well as provide methods to encourage adoption, reward innovators and measure the value of your investment.
