Why Choose
YOOBIC is the Opterus alternative driving real-time operational excellence and scalability for growing enterprises, while drastically improving the frontline employee working experience.
Finally, one unified mobile app for retail communication, task management, and microlearning that both leaders and frontline teams enjoy using.
It takes two Opterus apps to achieve what YOOBIC can master in one.
YOOBIC is one unified app that seamlessly integrates all frontline communication and task management needs. Opterus will offer you two apps — OPSCENTER and Holler — to do something similar. Which means you’ll have the challenge of driving adoption twice.
Complex organizations and businesses that want to scale need a robust Frontline Digital Workplace solution — not more point solutions. That’s why they choose YOOBIC.

francesca’s chose YOOBIC
YOOBIC’s task management tools have been really great for visibility and accountability at the boutique level, the district level, and at the Home Office level — because we can see all the tasks, who completed them, and when they completed them. As a District Leader, you can see the completion rates from your teams, and then, at the Home Office level, we can see that and drill down into the details if we need it.”
Sarah Brown – Director Of Field Training & Guest Experience, Francesca’s
Here is how Francesca’s transformed their frontline team experience with YOOBIC.
Associate-friendly task management, right in the flow of work
- YOOBIC digitizes tasks for frontline teams — everything from checklists and standard operating procedures to promotional and visual merchandising execution. Assign and track action plans, and automate pass/fail scores. Easily receive and resolve requests from your frontline teams (maintenance, equipment, damages, etc.) through a virtual helpdesk. And gain visibility into task execution and potential bottlenecks with real-time analytics.
- “Outdated” is how former Opterus users describe the OPSCENTER interface. They said it lacks functionality for managers to assign and track tasks effectively. And it’s not optimized for mobile, so store teams struggle to access their tasks when on the floor.
Optimized site visits, inspections & audits
- Digitize all your visit, audit, and inspection checklists with YOOBIC. Effectively score inspections, assign action plans to fix compliance issues, track completion, and share automated reports with managers and relevant stakeholders — all right inside the app.
- Opterus’ audit tool is seriously lacking in functionality. It operates more like a basic paper checklist, with ineffective scoring and no real-time analytics.
Unified communications, a highly engaging user experience
- YOOBIC’s advanced audience management features let you quickly target communications to specific audiences, foster team engagement through a two-way feedback loop, build camaraderie with our Communities tool, and speak from HQ to frontline teams with one unified voice. YOOBIC’s social media-like interface and gamified features drive fast, frequent usage. Both frontline teams and leaders find it easy and enjoyable. Just one reason YOOBIC has a 90% adoption rate.
- Opterus users must switch between OPSCENTER and Holler to communicate — a user experience previous customers described as confusing and “cumbersome.” They noted that OPSCENTER’s design is not user-friendly, content formatting is extremely limited, and the lack of an autosave function often leads to lost work.
Advanced, yet approachable, analytics & actionable AI-powered insights
- With YOOBIC’s automated and role-based dashboards, no-code customizations, and Power BI integration — HQ teams get real-time visibility into execution and performance, without the overwhelm. Predictive AI technology identifies recurring issues and root causes. And the ability to correlate with external KPIs means you can accurately attribute store operational activities to performance.
- Former Opterus users say the reporting dashboard in OPSCENTER isn’t user-friendly, with data filtering and organization especially lacking. Functionally, it couldn’t give them the KPIs, metrics, and actionable analysis they need.
Easy, versatile content creation & gamification for better training
- YOOBIC’s AI authoring tool rapidly turns existing content into personalized courses, micro-learning, and quizzes using no-code creation and templates. Its advanced multi-language translation aids global L&D program deployment. Gamification features like battles, badges, and leaderboards, coupled with rewards, keep frontline teams engaged, providing insights through integrated analytics. YOOBIC also integrates with other LMS platforms, enhancing your existing LMS without replacing it.
- Opterus doesn’t do learning. Just the ability to source existing knowledge via a search function that previous users say is outdated and unreliable. (With YOOBIC’s AI-powered NEO Assistant, frontline employees can ask a question and access knowledge instantly — no manual searching required.)
Dedicated customer support, forever
-
- Every YOOBIC customer has the support of a dedicated Account Manager and Customer Success Manager who are always ready to help troubleshoot issues, strategize workflows, accept feedback, and celebrate your wins. Plus, access to YOOBIC’s 24/7 Help Center for self-serve support. One customer said, “YOOBIC has our best interests at heart!” We’re inclined to agree with them.
- Opterus’ customer support gets good reviews. We’re both committed to helping our customers and it shows.
Deploy one reliable, flexible, and scalable solution
Your store teams shouldn’t have to struggle with legacy tools that don’t make sense anymore, and maybe haven’t for a long time.
There’s a reason YOOBIC is the preferred choice of global enterprises: It was built for the challenges of modern frontline workers — bridging the gap between workforce orchestration, execution, and employee experience.
- 350+ customers worldwide
- 90%+ program adoption rate
- 95%+ renewal rate
- 30 Senior Strategic Advisors and a vibrant Customer Community with active user groups
“Working with YOOBIC as a partner has been one of the best experiences… I don’t think I’ve heard a ‘no” yet… Every step of the way we’ve had somebody that’s been an expert and has been there to help us do exactly what we need to do.”
