We've heard every objection in the book. Here's exactly what to say when your leadership team pushes back - with the evidence to back it up.
We already have Google Forms/Microsoft Forms for free. Why do we need to pay for something else?
Free survey tools collect responses, but that’s where they stop.
They have little to no anonymity architecture, no automated reminders, no real-time dashboards, and no AI analysis.
Every survey cycle means hours of manual work to produce a result that’s already out of date. The question isn’t whether we can collect feedback, it’s whether we can actually do anything useful with it. Right now, we can’t.
What's the ROI? How do we justify the cost?
The ROI question is actually easy to answer, because the cost of disengagement is measurable.
Replacing one employee costs on average £30,000.
If Stribe helps us retain even one person this year who would otherwise have left, it pays for itself many times over.
Research from Deloitte shows £5 return for every £1 invested in employee wellbeing.
At at average of *£3 per employee per month, Stribe is one of the lowest-risk investments we can make in our people.

We don't have time to learn and implement another HR tool right now.
That’s actually one of the reasons I chose Stribe.
Setup takes 10 minutes. It connects to the HR systems we already use, so there’s no manual data entry and no lengthy onboarding project.
Most HR teams are sending their first survey the same day they sign up. And because the platform automates the distribution reminders and analysis, it doesn’t add to the workload, it removes it.
The time argument is actually an argument for Stribe, not against it.
What if employees don't use it? We've tried surveys before and no one bothered.
Low participation is almost always a distribution or trust problem, not an engagement problem.
Stribe reaches employees via email, Slack, Teams, QR codes, and a mobile app, so they can respond in whatever way works for them. And because the anonymity is built into the architecture people actually trust it.
That’s why Stribe customers average an 86% response rate.
Is this really the right time? We've got a lot going on.
Times of change are exactly when employee feedback matters most.
When a lot is going on internally, that’s when people have the most to say, and when leaders most need to know how the team is really feeling.
Flying blind during a busy or uncertain period is when small problems quietly become big ones.
Stribe will give us the early warning signals we need to stay ahead of issues, not react to them after.
How do we know what employees tell us will be honest?
That’s exactly the problem with non-anonymous surveys, and it’s why Stribe’s anonymity commitment is different.
Stribe’s commitment to anonymity protects employees first and foremost, and creates an environment of trust and respect that ultimately ensures that Stribe is used to its full potential – allowing feedback that is honest, authentic and detailed.
Real people. Real results. Real change.
