Success Stories

Turn appreciation into ROI

Ampirical
Our client success representative helped us create a training and recording module for the platform to show employees how to use it properly. It’s rare to find a company willing to spend the time to ensure you’re properly equipped.
Ryan Zellner
Marketing & Corporate Communications Manager
As an employee on a mostly remote team, it’s tough to connect and show genuine appreciation for the people we work with every day. Awardo is an easy win for remote teams.

Shortly after implementation, we created a financial recognition program through Awardco, allowing managers and supervisors to reward their employees for going above and beyond. Now, our leaders have their own budgeted amounts to use at their discretion to recognize staff at any time, without needing prior approval.

You’re often on the road for your entire shift, and you might not interact with many other colleagues… So, being recognized helps you feel more connected to the team.

It’s a fast-paced environment. There’s a great rapport among the team, everyone gets along well, and we can joke about the stressful parts while also making sure to celebrate our big wins together.

Once [Microsoft] Teams became more accessible and we could use Awardco directly through that platform, everything changed. Recognition started happening in real time, right when great work was done, which made it feel truly authentic and helped strengthen our culture.

We wouldn’t have chosen Awardco if it weren’t so user-friendly. It’s clean, intuitive, and seamlessly integrates with Outlook and Teams—where our people already are.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How will we prove Awardco improves engagement, retention, or other business outcomes?

 

Awardco can help organizations establish a baseline, track program adoption, and monitor recognition activity alongside broader workforce metrics.

Depending on the organization’s goals, teams may evaluate measures such as engagement or eNPS results, recognition participation, login activity, points utilization, voluntary turnover, absenteeism, productivity, or administrative effort.

Awardco reporting can support the measurement process, but each organization should use its own baseline and business context to determine impact. Recognition activity alone does not guarantee a specific retention or engagement outcome.

‍

What results can a Software or Services company like ours realistically expect?
 

Results depend on the organization’s starting point, workforce, program design, manager participation, communications, and business objectives.

Software and Services organizations may use Awardco to support stronger employee engagement, more consistent recognition, improved manager participation, cultural alignment across teams, and a more efficient administration process.

The most useful evaluation compares Awardco’s potential impact with the organization’s current recognition activity, employee feedback, workforce metrics, and administrative workload. Relevant customer stories can provide examples, but no single benchmark applies to every organization.

How will Awardco engage remote, distributed, and global employees?
 

Awardco is designed to help organizations recognize employees who work remotely, across offices, in different countries, or at client and customer sites.

Depending on the organization’s configuration, employees can access recognition and rewards through mobile experiences, supported login methods, collaboration tools, email, and other communication channels. Programs and reward options can also be adapted for different countries, currencies, employee groups, and local requirements.

Adoption still depends on a thoughtful rollout, relevant programs, manager participation, and consistent communication across the workforce.

How do we get managers to participate consistently?
 

Awardco can help organizations make recognition easier for managers through simple workflows, configurable budgets, reminders, automated programs, and reporting on participation.

Leaders can use reporting to identify teams or managers with lower participation and target communications, training, or follow-up where needed. Organizations can also support recognition without requiring a monetary award for every interaction, depending on their program design.

Sustained manager participation depends on leadership expectations, enablement, workflow simplicity, and reinforcement over time.

Can we consolidate recognition, engagement, surveys, and other tools?
 

Awardco can bring recognition, rewards, engagement experiences, reporting, and related workflows together in one platform, depending on the products and programs an organization enables.

This may help reduce the number of disconnected employee experiences and simplify administration. Organizations can evaluate whether Awardco should replace, integrate with, or complement existing tools such as survey, engagement, collaboration, HRIS, or payroll systems.

The right consolidation strategy depends on the capabilities the organization already owns, the workflows it wants to preserve, and the level of integration required.

Recognition that pays for itself

Foster a culture of genuine appreciation for everyone and watch turnover and disengagement shrink.
