It's time to switch from Vitality
Vitality ties wellness to insurance incentives. Woliba builds real culture — with recognition, coaching, surveys & daily engagement in one modern platform your employees actually want to use.
"Absolutely ZERO customer support. If you have an issue, you are completely on your own. Their phone number has nothing but ads — you listen for 5 minutes and get disconnected. No email. No chat. If I wasn't forced to use it by my employer I would avoid at all cost."

Here are five reasons Why HRs leave Vitality
Wellness programs should build culture — not just track insurance credits. Woliba helps HR teams create a real employee experience with wellbeing, engagement, recognition, AI-powered burnout alerts, and hands-on support.
"Wellness" tied to insurance — employees feel punished, not motivated
Vitality's core model is built around insurance incentives — earn points or pay more in premiums. This creates a compliance mindset, not a culture one. Employees participate out of financial obligation, not genuine engagement. When your wellness program feels like a checkbox for keeping health costs down, it breeds resentment, not wellbeing.
"Our company went under and Vitality immediately pulled the plug, taking hundreds of dollars in rewards from me while I was already struggling."
"Absolutely zero customer support" — you're completely on your own
Vitality has a G2 support rating of just 6.4/10. Users report no phone support (just ads that disconnect), no email, no chat. When employees or HR teams hit a problem — and they do — there is no one to call. For a platform tied to financial incentives, this is inexcusable.
"Absolutely ZERO customer support. If you have an issue, you are completely on your own. Their phone number has nothing but ads. You listen for at least 5 minutes and then get disconnected. No email. No chat."
Clunky, hard to navigate — employees give up before they start
Vitality's G2 Ease of Use score is just 7.0. Users across reviews describe features that are "clunky and hard to activate," a UI that's difficult to navigate, and a phone app that has fewer features than the desktop version. When your wellness platform requires a tutorial just to log a workout, participation plummets.
"Some of the features are tricky to use. It's not always clear how to earn points. The phone app has less features than the desktop website."
No recognition tools — wellness without culture
Vitality is an insurance-linked wellness platform — it tracks health metrics and rewards healthy behaviors. But it has no peer recognition, no manager shoutouts, no engagement surveys, and no coaching. When wellness lives in isolation from recognition and culture, employees treat it as a chore — not a benefit.
"Some aspects and earnable points are specifically linked to weight loss. I have coworkers who are reluctant to use the program because they don't want our district micromanaging their health information. It feels clinical — not motivating."
"Hidden costs can be an issue" — opaque pricing, complex claims
Vitality has no public pricing. HR teams must go through a demo just to get a quote. Users report hidden costs and difficult claims processes. For a platform tied to employee financial incentives, this lack of transparency is a significant red flag — both for HR budgets and employee trust.
"Hidden costs can be an issue, and some claims are difficult to process."

Frequently Asked Questions
Creating a work culture is a shared responsibility where every individual plays a vital role and it all starts with selecting the right solution. Allow Woliba to transform this into a reality.
How long does migration from Wellable take?
Switching wellness platforms shouldn’t cause your HR team a headache. We’ve seen companies migrate from Wellable in under 15 days — bringing over their challenge history, employee data, reward structures, and wellness program setup without missing a beat. Your dedicated Woliba CSM handles the entire transition, from data migration to employee communications to launching your first challenge, so your team feels zero disruption.
Does Woliba really only charge active users?
What's included in $2/user/month?
Everything. Wellness challenges, peer recognition, rewards engine, health resources, EAP access, social wall, gamification, analytics, and dedicated CSM support — all in one subscription at $2 per active user per month, starting from $100/month. There are no add-on fees for NOM-035 compliance or the recognition module. Compare that to Wellable at $4/user for wellness only, and the value gap is significant.
How is Woliba different from just a wellness app?
Wellness apps track habits. Woliba builds culture. The difference is the social layer — peer recognition, team challenges, a social wall that feels like a network your employees actually want to open. Husch Blackwell went from 46 posts to 438 on their social feed and from 55% to 90% challenge participation after switching from Wellable. That’s not a wellness app — that’s a culture engine.
What kind of support does Woliba provide?
Every Woliba customer — regardless of company size — gets a dedicated Customer Success Manager who proactively checks in, reviews program performance, and helps plan what’s next. This is not a ticket system. Your CSM knows your program, your participation trends, and your goals. Wellable customers on G2 specifically cited slow, reactive, templated support as a key frustration. That’s the opposite of the Woliba model.
Can we see Woliba before committing?
Absolutely. Book a free live demo and we’ll walk you through the platform using your real use case — your team size, your industry, your challenges. No generic slide decks. Pricing is shared on the first call, and there’s no commitment required. Most teams who see a demo make a decision within the same week.
Does Woliba work for remote/global teams?
Use the app in multiple languages so employees can easily understand and participate. Challenges and activities feel more accessible when everyone can engage in the language they’re most comfortable with.
