FAQs

What is the best app for a company step challenge?

For most companies, WeMove offers the best balance: self-service setup in 5 minutes, transparent pricing from $2/user, and 80%+ participation. Unlike enterprise solutions that require demos and annual contracts, WeMove lets you start today.

Why do enterprise wellness platforms have low adoption?

Complexity kills adoption. Enterprise tools are built for procurement, not employees. They require training and have confusing interfaces. WeMove is built for users—join in 2 minutes, steps sync automatically, gamification keeps engagement high.

How much should we pay for a step challenge platform?

Expect $2-5/user/month for self-service platforms. Enterprise solutions charge $8-15/user plus $5K-50K implementation. For 100 employees: WeMove = ~$200/mo. Enterprise = $800-1,500/mo plus $10K+ setup. The ROI rarely justifies enterprise pricing.

Do we need to schedule a demo to try WeMove?

No. WeMove is fully self-service. Sign up, invite your team, launch a challenge—all in 5 minutes. No sales calls, no procurement process. You can always contact support, but it's not required.
