We didn't want or need a bunch of bells and whistles. We needed an efficient platform that would empower the recognition and reward programs we wanted to run. Awardco has worked so well—and continues to work so well.

Awardco bridges the gap by giving us a platform to build each other up. There are centers that are really far from each other that can now feel connected to everybody else because we can share the great things that we're doing.

Thanks to Christi and the Awardco Center of Excellence, we now have a strong thought partner that shares new and different strategies to help us further elevate the Americare recognition experience. We have tested the market, and this collaborative consultation and creative problem solving from recognition practitioners differentiates Awardco. In practice, it has built our confidence that we have business partners who are sincerely invested in helping us take recognition from being a perk to a powerful strategic driver that delivers tangible impact.

We use recognition as a tool to motivate and encourage our employees—everyone knows Awardco because we actively use it for any and all incentives for employees.

Our job was to solve the continuous problem of helping staff feel connected—to each other and to the organization.

We wanted to make recognition easy and exciting for our blue collar workers to participate in, and Awardco's capabilities have made that possible.

We were really worried that clinical staff wouldn't be able to log in, being away from their desks. But that hasn't been an issue. Our emergency department senior director, for example, uses it right on the spot. We've seen a strong showing from our clinical departments.

The onboarding process was very encouraging. We weren't given the program and told to figure it out on our own—we've had someone to lean on the entire time, someone who helped us navigate this big, company-wide change.
