Kudos Reviews

being able to give praise to fellow employees.

My wife uses Kudos at her work place but there is no way for me to send her messages or awards. I know its only for in-company use.

I like how quickly and easily I can generate kudos to send recognition for good performance

The application is a little slow when scrolling down to review older kudos posts

Working for a manufacturing company this is a way that the admin, sales, customer service staff can recognise others from different departments that make sure a difference in our day and the way we do our jobs. We may not work closely in the same department or vicinity but we can still acknowledge the efforts of anyone within the business and this is a great way of bringing the departments together.

I love everything about it - it's a great morale booster and bridges the gap between production and sales / customer service.

Easy to redeem and cash out to my account. Easy to use the credit card for shopping.I feel that my superior and my clicks thanks me very much for all hard work I'm doing when receive a Kudos. I am appreciative and love the Kudos very much. You make my day Kudos!. Thank You.

I don't see any difficulties to use the Kudos so far.

The ability to recognize and be recognized for achievements within the company and your closer team

Sometimes hard to see total points you have when first opening the page

It's very easy to use. You can reward your colleagues in a few seconds, and simply bring happiness to their day. It makes you be more helpful because you can be rewarded for it.The greatest thing is my points value is doubled twice a year and it's fantastic.

The only downside is that claiming Kudos is a taxable event.

Kudos has been a great way for peers in the office to recognize one another. It has helped the office become closer.

It would be nice to receive the gift card not only via e-mail but to have it recorded in the app or website as well.

I love at there is a point tier to the level of appreciation. it take the guessing game out of how much you want to give person you are grateful for.

I feel that the value of the amount of Kudos could be a little more

It's structured like a social feed and very easy to use. Minimal training required and implementation and customization was very simple. Powerful tool for increasing employee engagement and building a culture of recognition.

I wish it supported GIF files and had a way to set up points activities that users could claim, but other than that it's great!

The product is easy to use for our managers and employees alike. It affords first line managers and non-manager employees an avenue to provide recognition to the employees that deserve it. It has really helped boost moral and improve employee incentive.

We historically used an SFTP site to download the employee data set and this has presented some issues that we are hoping to resolve by establishing API's. However the security requirements of the healthcare industry has made this transition problematic. We are working through them.

The ease and transparency that Kudos provides in allowing us to recognise employees' effort and contribution, fits perfectly within our culture of recognition and reward in a timely manner. Allows all our members of our team to appreciate each other. We have now been using for three years and it hasn't lost its momentum. We use as a tool to send announcements, newsletters, share corporate event photos - which brings our team back to the site which reinvigorates further use. Our team use the app at lunch breaks to send and like each other Kudos.

As we use pages for newsletters some more options around graphics would be great.

Ever since I started using Kudos, I have been recommending it to everyone I know in HR at other companies, for very simple reasons- it makes recognition instant and easy, the value attached to the recognition in terms of rewards offered is employee centric, and it can be used on-the-go if you download the app. I am thoroughly impressed by the overall product and love that I can view not only my recognition, and the recognition I give others, but also the recognition received by others! It's an important tool in identifying those gems within the organization who go above and beyond, and it helps in understanding what the strengths of our people are- if we recognise people by including a category of recognition. We are also allowed to vet the kudo's given by someone to someone else. I love that I can still give recognition to others even if I have not been part of the reason for the recognition, but if I know that the receiver is a person who regularly behaves in the manner being recognised for!

In terms of the app- I think it can be made to be a bit more intuitive. I don't have a lot of criticism here as I truly do love the kudo's software- I just think the app could be spruced up a bit.

Great customer service, fairly easy to use, metrics are available, some flexibility with how the site looks, the App is awesome,

Just some suggestions.
1) An easier way for users to provide feedback about Kudos or our Excellence Award that is ran through Kudos.
2) Provide Administrators the ability to generate quick generic email communication for our organization (emails could be edited). Admin generated emails could offer information/statistics about giving people recognition and/or use links to landing pages on the Kudos website to drive users to known functionality.
3) Integrate personality tests into the site to help the users better understand what they are looking for in communication and how they communicate with others.
4) Provide a Company Employee Suggestion function.

This software encourages employee engagement to the next level and does so in the most positive manner. Recognizing peers for accomplishments as well as thanking them for assistance is really neat!

I feel like that Kudos could improve with some of the UI. It can be difficult to search for specific people sometimes when giving Kudos.

Another thing is when attaching a photo to an award and then changing the amount removes the photograph. Very minor inconvenience -

What I love about Kudos the most is that there are so many options to cash in for your gift card. You name a place, and there's a gift card for it on there. I love it. It is fast and friendly! Its a great way for employees to interact with other employees. Money is one of the best incentives a company can give and with Kudos you're able to spend it however you like. When I have my own business I will be sure to use Kudos and nothing else!

I don't like how you can't see what everyone says about a person unless you see it scrolling. I'd like it even better if we were given the option to click on someones name and then you could see all of the Kudos posted.

I have been using kudos app for a while now and must say its one the best apps for employee recognition and rewards. It has beautiful interface with nice colour combinations. User dashboard is very simple and easy to navigate. You can recognise your colleagues anywhere at anytime at your own convenience. Has a lot of emojis to make your recognition more interesting. Great security features as well. Thank you

Sometimes srolling down to view previous comments from individual colleagues is very cumbersome. Especially when you have received a lot of general messages. I think separating the group messages from the individual ones will be of great help. Aside that I think the app is simple and easy to use.
