We know that choosing the right software can be a big decision. That's why we want to share why many leading organizations and government teams choose and trust Jambo as their preferred stakeholder engagement software.
What is stakeholder engagement software, and how do you choose one?
Stakeholder engagement software helps you centralize and manage relationships with the individuals and groups that are important to your organization or may be affected by your projects.
Stakeholder engagement software streamlines logging communications, tracking engagement activities, and generating reports on stakeholder engagement. It also allows you to review engagement efforts at the organizational and project levels, enabling you to identify what's working well and where improvements are needed.
When choosing stakeholder engagement software, it's important to consider these key factors:
- Ease of use: How intuitive is the software? Can your team start using it effectively with minimal training, or will extensive onboarding be required?
- Security: Does the platform provide robust security measures to protect sensitive stakeholder data?
- Compliance: Does the software facilitate compliance by supporting your reporting and regulatory requirements?
- Feature alignment: Are the features and tools tailored to your organization's workflows and strategic goals?
- Support: Is reliable customer support available, ideally with expertise in stakeholder engagement, to assist when needed?
If you manage stakeholder engagement projects, here's why we believe Jambo meets and exceeds these key factors.

Why choose Jambo over Borealis, Simply Stakeholders, Consultation Manager, or Tractivity?
There are many stakeholder engagement software options available on the market, making it challenging to determine which is the best fit for your project. Among the most well-known are Jambo, Borealis, and Simply Stakeholders. However, other software solutions offer comparable features, like Consultation Manager (an Australian-based platform) and Tractivity (focused on the UK market).
Borealis
Borealis is a stakeholder management software primarily used in industries such as mining and energy, where managing issues, complaints, and land access are critical concerns. It provides numerous add-on features and specialized modules aimed at enhancing social performance. Borealis is a good choice for large organizations with big budgets managing complex projects requiring rigorous risk management, detailed reporting, and comprehensive audit records.

Simply Stakeholders
Simply Stakeholders is stakeholder management software with a strong Australian client base. It offers standard features that help engagement teams manage and track stakeholder relationships, interactions, and sentiment. However, if your project demands advanced reporting and data analysis capabilities, Simply Stakeholders may fall short in these areas.
