What ourcustomers say

When employees feel seen and appreciated, they’re more engaged and engagement drives performance. Using Awardco helps leaders and managers recognize impact in real time and that momentum drives continued and lasting success.
Monica Gunderson
Talent Management Lead
PMG
Since joining, I’ve found myKudos [Awardco] posts to be a great way to learn what others are doing across the agency. I’ve even picked up ideas from shoutouts that I’ve been able to implement on my own accounts. It’s more than recognition—it’s a source of inspiration.

Awardco filled a huge need for us to bring recognition and incentives across our international organization. We saw a huge upswing in employee engagement and recognition with its adoption.
Ryan F.
HR Training Specialist
We recently pulled an in-platform report to check on usage, and then we reached out to people individually to improve adoption—especially managers. Since then, engagement has been significantly higher, and our culture of recognition is growing—even our executives are recognizing.
Hannah Fagan

When we set up a demo, the customer service representative made us feel like a client already. He made us feel valued, and he was patient with us through the process. The service we received from the Awardco team far and away exceeded our expectations and really sold us on your company.
