We were doing recognition even before we adopted this platform, but this platform made it so easy for our frontline leaders and middle managers to run the recognition program.

We used to give everyone a trophy at our annual event. Now, we reward true top performers. Awardco enables smarter, more meaningful recognition and spend.

Alera Group
Colleagues have to choose a value from The Collaborative Way when they recognize, making our recognition feed daily proof of why our values are so important. It’s such a powerfully positive place. Leaders are really taking notice—they want to see their teams at the top of the adoption leaderboard because they know the impact our values have on employee performance and retention.

Awardco has made employees' lives easier. Working outside in the elements with the customers can be tough, but being recognized, seen, heard, and valued makes it easier.

Awardco has taken the guesswork out of our culture—leadership knows they're not treating anyone unfairly or unconsciously showing favoritism. Recognition is a lot more consistent and frequent for everyone.
Nicole Blaschka
Director of Human Resources
ARUP Laboratories
Soon after our implementation we created a financial recognition program through Awardco for managers and supervisors to recognize their employees for extra efforts. Now our managers and supervisors have their own budgeted amount to use at their discretion to award their employees at any time, and they don't have to wait for approval to do so.

Talent Development Manager
The customer service experience has been exceptional, and the Awardco team has been more than willing to help us set up custom processes and programs, configure integrations, and set up our own custom swag shop.
