Fair is fair
Strengths on each side, said plainly
Where Wellable is strong
- Breadth beyond steps: 40-plus challenge types across physical, mental, financial and social wellbeing, 2,500-plus classes and 250-plus live weekly breaks.
- HRIS import, SSO and a gift-card catalogue of 800-plus brands in 55-plus countries.
- A pricing page with an organisation-size selector, a feature matrix and a billing FAQ.
Where Sociana is weaker
- SAML single sign-on. Sociana does not offer this today.
- Challenge types beyond steps (sleep, nutrition, financial). Sociana does not offer this today.
- Direct Fitbit, Garmin or Strava sync. Sociana does not offer this today.
- HRIS, SSO and gift-card marketplace for rewards. Sociana does not offer this today.
- Pricing figures published on the vendor site. "From" prices per package on the pricing page
- Pure webinars, venue sourcing and dues-based membership management are not what Sociana is for.
Where Sociana differs
- Sociana can be bought for a 30-day campaign without a 25-user minimum or one-year contract, and runs inside a branded programme app.
- Sociana's unified leaderboard mixes steps with polls, games, attendance and scans, with a venue reward store redeemed by staff QR.
- Sociana does not claim sleep, nutrition or financial challenges, class libraries, biometrics or direct Fitbit and Garmin sync, which Wellable covers.
Pricing and India
What it costs, and how it bills
- Wellable pricing
- Published in US dollars per user per month on a standard one-year contract with a 25-user minimum: Essentials 4.00 dollars (100 dollars a month at 25 users) and Pro 6.00 dollars (150 dollars a month); per-user pricing falls as headcount rises, and Enterprise is custom. Spouse access, biometrics, SSO and LSA are extra. (source, checked 24 Oct 2026)
- Sociana pricing
- Rupee quotes with GST, per occasion or annual programme. See the packages.
- India presence
- Rupee billing: not verified · WhatsApp: not verified · US dollar pricing and a US-style contract; we found no rupee billing, GST invoicing or WhatsApp channel as of 19 Oct 2026.
“Not listed” means we could not find it on the vendor’s pages that day, not that it does not exist. “Not verified” means the row was not checked page by page, so we make no claim either way.
FAQ
Sociana vs Wellable: questions
When is Wellable the better choice than Sociana?
Choose Wellable for year-round wellbeing with sleep, nutrition, mental and financial challenges, 2,500-plus classes, HRIS import and a gift-card catalogue, on a one-year contract. Choose Sociana for a time-boxed step campaign inside a branded app, with no minimum or annual commitment.
Why do organisers look for a Wellable alternative?
The sourced reasons are contract shape: a standard one-year term, a 25-user minimum and a one-time implementation fee, with SSO, spouse access and biometrics extra. The product is also an HR tool outside the event. Wellable claims 91 percent of inquiries resolved within an hour (vendor-reported).
How does Wellable pricing compare with Sociana?
Wellable lists Essentials at 4 dollars and Pro at 6 dollars per user per month (100 and 150 dollars a month at the 25-user minimum) on a one-year contract. Sociana quotes per campaign in rupees with GST, including the branded app, delivery and rewards. A 30-day campaign for 500 people and a yearly licence are different purchases.
Does Sociana offer the same challenge breadth as Wellable?
No. Sociana covers step and activity challenges, streaks, team targets, journeys and a unified leaderboard. It does not offer sleep, nutrition, mental or financial challenges, content libraries, coaching, biometrics or HRIS sync, where Wellable is the stronger choice.
Can both be used together?
Yes. A company can keep Wellable for year-round wellbeing and run a branded 30-day expedition in Sociana for a leadership meet or annual day. Export step results from Sociana to your HR platform for rewards; there is no direct sync between the two.
