What it really isMicrosoft Viva Glint: an employee survey and feedback product (formerly LinkedIn Glint) sold as part of Microsoft Viva.
Our takeViva Glint is Microsoft's employee listening tool.
HR teams build surveys from customizable templates for engagement, onboarding, exit, diversity and inclusion, change management and 360s, then read results as trends, heat maps and benchmarks. Copilot in Viva Glint summarizes large volumes of comments, and managers get guided presentations to discuss results with their teams. It costs $2.00 per user per month on an annual commitment, with a 50-seat minimum, and you buy it through a Microsoft representative.
Why we rate itGlint covers the full survey cycle in one place: templates for every stage of employment, benchmarks, AI summaries of comments and tools that help managers act on their team's results.
For companies already on Microsoft 365 enterprise plans, it is added to an existing subscription.
The catchThe 50-seat minimum, annual commitment and purchase through a Microsoft representative put it out of reach for small teams.
We found no free trial. Combining survey results with behavioral data needs a separate Viva Insights license.

Trade-offs

Friction report

Trade-offs to know before signing up.

  1. Time to value
    Slow: you buy through a Microsoft representative, then set up survey programs; Microsoft partners offer deployment help.
  2. Scale breakpoint
    Cost grows per user; the Insights and Pulse features need the $6 bundle or the $12 Viva Suite.
  3. Walled garden
    Moderate: results can be exported and shared from the Glint app, but the product is sold and run inside Microsoft Viva and Microsoft 365.
Still a fit?
