Kudos really helps to build team morale. I love seeing everyone call each other out for the great work their doing, and I think that kind of feedback makes people work harder. Sometimes teams can be a very segmented. With kudos, you can easily see what other teams are working on, fostering an atmosphere of engagement and communication.
Pros
Your hard work turns into cold, hard, cash!
I like that you can choose from kudos-branded or company-branded rewards!
I like that you can choose to send your kudos privately or publicly.
I like that you can endorse a kudos someone else has sent.
I like that you get kudos on your birthday!
I like that you can't send all your kudos to one person, forcing you to spread it out.
Cons
I wish unused kudos could roll over to the next month.
I wish adding giphs to a post was easier.
I wish that clicking the +K button actually added additional kudos.
I wish there were more Canadian-specific Kudos rewards.
I would like to get a reminder email towards the end of each month, reminding me to use up the last of my kudos.

Fun system for employee recognition and rewards
Reviewed on 05/02/2023
Positive.
Positive.
Pros
It's great to have an easy way for everyone on a team to recognize each other, offering both public praise and meaningful monetary value through gift cards. It encourages everyone to think at least once a month about how they appreciate their colleagues, and makes people feel appreciated. Warm fuzzies on both sides.
Cons
The public display of rewards giving seems backwards — at a glance, the giver looks like the recipient, and vice versa. Also, it would be nice if it were easy to see how many points a colleague has given you, in addition to the written praise that goes along with the points. Why not put that points number in the email notification? Also, more "select qualities" are needed beyond the ones that are offered — you know, the things like "accountability" and "bold innovation." I often don't find relevant words in there, so I end up choosing random words that aren't quite right.

My experience with kudos is awesome!
Pros
Making your staff feel connected and appreciated is easy with kudos.
Cons
Using the Kudos platform for your team really has no drawbacks in my opinion, however, that may be because I don't personally cover the cost of the service. I'm only speaking from the "user's perspective," and from that vantage point, Kudos is a fantastic tool for fostering culture.

Fun, Collaborative and Memorable how I can give my colleague a recognition publicly, or privately. We can exchange messages and fun chats on comment section, and it creates trust between me and my supervisor as we can break the communication gap that we had. It was an amazing experience.
Pros
What I like the most is how the software is easy and comfortable to use, you can open it in mobile or laptop. This gives us a chance to say thank you in a fun way to a colleague and letting them know that their effort and help is not wasted and being recognized. Sound simple but this can be an inspiration to them to use in everyday transaction.
Cons
I am looking to more design of Emoji, other than that I really like everything about it.
