What is Donut for Slack?
Donut is a well known app for Slack. It's mainly known for its random coffee feature to push people to meet in an organisation. It also provides a feature for birthday and work anniversary celebrations. However, today, we'd like to introduce you to a newer and better option: Billy, the birthday bot.What is Billy Birthday?
Created in 2023, Billy offers a modern solution for wishing birthdays with a human touch and a friendly yet professional tone. Unlike Donut, Billy prioritizes the personal touch over the robotic tone, making it the ideal choice for modern companies using Slack to communicate. By using Billy to wish birthdays, you can improve employee recognition and create a more engaging work environment. So, if you want to make your employees feel valued on their special day, choose Billy for an unforgettable birthday celebration!The problem of using Donut for Slack
Donut is now quite hard to configure and too expensive for most teams. While they grew a lot, the product became clunky and difficult to install, configure and maintain.
Billy is 6x cheaper (for 40 people, Billy costs $20 per month whereas $119 for Donut)
We believe that we provide a better service. We also propose a cheaper solution and a longer trial period. Billy's not just 2% cheaper, it is 6 times cheaper than Donut. Trial is not just longer, it's doubled.
Forget about the bot, meet the human touch
What you don't want to see is a bot posting an automated message. At the contrary, what you want to achieve is to see a warm and fun message that triggers team bonding and reactions. Try Billy.
It's not just a birthday app. Use Billy to build your company culture.
