Props to Ten Thousand Coffees (10KC)
Pros:
I appreciate 10KC for the ease with which I'm able to connect with mentors/mentees on a monthly basis. The pre-populated connection prompts make it easy for me to make that first connection.
Cons:
There aren't any negatives that prevent me from using 10KC as it suits my needs to connect with other people. If I could change one thing I would want the opportunity to customize my own profile to show more of my personality with the ability to change the colour scheme or addition of other media.

Thanks Chérisse for your 5-star review and detailed feedback! We appreciate your suggestion to create a more customized profile to showcase your personality. We'll let our team know and we'll circle back to this review once we have an update!
Alternatives Considered:
Excellent platform to scale and support development programs!
Pros:
The platform is easy to navigate, data is thorough and readily accessible, and the team is highly collaborative and supportive. Leveraging 10KC has made it possible for us to scale and manage our enterprise-wide mentorship and networking program that would otherwise require a full team to manually develop, implement, support and manage. The content that 10KC provides is also incredibly helpful and can be curated to support our program goals without the heavy lift of developing all development content to guide participants.
Cons:
The technology automates messages and reminders to participants - which I LOVE - but I wish we could customize the messages' "sender" information so that it appears to come from someone within our organization. I think it would help employees make a faster connection when they receive communications and would reinforce our internal branding.
A great networking platform for those looking to become a mentor or seeking a mentor in a new field
Comments: Overall a positive experiencing to help facilitate connections for being a mentor as well as finding a mentor. 10KC's ability to match you with appropriate mentorship opportunities is my favourite feature and what has been most helpful. Also really like the fact that 10KC is specifically a social networking platform for cultivating mentorships whereas no other platforms (even LinkedIn) offer a similar service.
Pros:
My favourite feature of 10KC is that it is a networking program focus on mentoring that can help to match you with beneficial connections from both a mentor and mentee perspective.
Cons:
Cultivating connections and mentorship relationships was not as effortless and streamlined as hoped but that could have also been specific to the institution I was a part of and using 10KC with.
