Never underestimate the power of recognition. Years after I recognized a colleague, they still send me a message on the anniversary of that moment to say it continues to make their day.

Being a nurse, I know that oftentimes it's hard to keep coming back day after day. It often goes without recognition or gratitude, but Sunshine has given us the opportunity to empower our team and our leaders with the ability to recognize others. We're proud to have seen such high engagement from our team members submitting recognitions on the platform.

We selected Awardco after a focus group review. It was hands down unanimous. Everyone loved how clean, easy, and intuitive Awardco was, especially the ‘Who do you want to recognize?’ prompt right when you log in.

From the intitial implementation, the regular administration, and the support, Awardco has been a great option for our employees.

I've used Awardco at two different companies in two different industries—not only is the platform easy to navigate, it allows you to customize it to fit your employees' needs.

I was really looking for a user-friendly, up-to-speed, and easy-to-use program that can expand in different ways, and I found it with Awardco.

From the time that we implemented to six years later, we are still just as satisfied as we were on day one.

A quiet employee might never self-promote, but Awardco gives us the visibility to see their impact. We’ve literally had leaders say, ‘I had no idea!’ when reviewing this data.

I've been using Awardco for our Monthly Wellness Challenges for over a year. Each month, I create a themed EARN program, and participants are entered into a points-based drawing. Awardco has helped me build consistent programming, schedule ahead, and never worry about delays. The reporting tools capture participation and top performers, offering insights that have truly transformed our Wellness Program. Even our most tech-challenged employees use the platform with ease. We've received nothing but positive feedback from employees who had been asking for more recognition.

Change management was a concern when exploring new vendors. However, our leadership, HR, and associates have smoothly transitioned to Awardco, and they appreciate its straightforward and intuitive design, which surpasses the complexities of previous platforms.

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

One of the biggest things we were looking for was a platform that's easily accessible for all of our employees. We needed it to be simple and intuitive, and not take a lot of training.

Recognition is now a seamless part of our employee journey—from day one to major milestones.

So it's not just working out. And we have found that pictures tell a thousand words. So for example, we were doing something around, eat the colors of the rainbow and to send us in those pictures. And then that gets people more excited, and then they're logging their stuff, and then they're getting rewarded on Awardco. They love when that email comes out once a quarter. They're, like, ready. Like, did I get my points? How many points did I get?

Employees are awarded a certain amount of points every month to give out to their peers. We encourage people to recognize not just within their team, but across the company—anyone who goes above and beyond or makes your day a little easier.
