Awardco has definitely helped us do recognition even better. Recognizing someone you work with, even if you don’t see them every day, has been empowering.

Our eNPS soared from 38 in 2024 to 58 in 2025. That's unheard of and something I've never been a part of before. I think speaks to the really special culture that Awardco has built through recognition and through building a culture where people feel like they belong.

Prior to Awardco, the recognition process was manual and time-consuming. Everything was done through emails and spreadsheets, with physical delivery of plaques and gifts. Important milestones were sometimes missed, despite our best intentions.

The most impactful stat I’ve seen is that a recognition hits our platform every two seconds. It’s incredible—so much so that I sometimes worry our employees might mute the recognition channel because of all the activity. But that constant stream of appreciation shows just how engaged our people are every single day. The greatest benefit of using our own software is the culture of belonging it creates.

The Awardco platform is the exact solution we were looking for. I love that we've been able to customize the solution for multiple internal use cases that have come up since launch.

Automation is something that is really important for us—we try to automate as much as we can so that we can focus on what's important. And Awardco's automation and integrations have fit in perfectly.

Awardco has allowed people to recognize their coworkers in a public way, and we see it every day. Collaboration is in the DNA of Alera Group, and appreciation is absolutely central and core to effective collaboration.

Awardco is just so easy to use. At the beginning, our support rep would do everything for us, but I was able to quickly learn the platform and become more self-sufficient.

We launched our The Collaborative Way initiative with a half-day workshop for all colleagues, facilitated by internal Collaborative Way Champions that traveled from office to office. We would do these engaging workshops across the company, and leaders would ask us, ‘Now that colleagues have completed the workshop, how do we keep these principles front and center?’ While we developed other standalone follow-ups, it was only when we implemented Awardco that we truly felt like we had a compelling, daily solution to that question.

Tying recognition to our values and integrating with Slack created real cultural stickiness.

As I’ve transitioned contractors into full-time roles, I’ve used myKudos [Awardco] as an incentive to help them engage with PMG’s culture. It may take time to fully understand all the offerings, but seeing kudos in action helps new team members recognize the value of the platform.

Awardco helps employees share meaningful recognition and reduces the silos that occur with so many employees being remote.

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.

We're very deliberate in the culture that we built. It is a constant effort every day. We value integrity, innovation, and we have an awesome culture because of who we hire. We've got a huge team of really talented individuals. They need to know that they're looked up to, that what they do is impactful and it means a lot to those around them.
