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.

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

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.

Awardco is such a great business partner for us… They really got in, learned about our culture before saying we’re a right fit, and I gave them a lot of credit for that.

Awardco brought our recognition programs into the 21st century.

We appreciate the user-friendly interface and the ample functionality of the platform, which has enabled us to better recognize team members as well as better support end users.

Feeling seen and feeling valued… That's one thing that keeps me going every day. We all try to strive for the best and try to help one another. We have a great management system here and everybody is seen and heard.

Seventy-five percent of our employees are out in the field, so how do we get them excited and engaged? The safety programmes really got them energised. They had the opportunity to earn a lot of points, but they also received meaningful recognition. I was really impressed by how much our login engagement increased over time.

Modern recognition with Awardco has created an ecosystem of appreciation. What we've found, as employees have recognised each other, is that they're motivated long term. Employees want to enjoy their work and be successful, and if we recognise them for their success, they'll know they're doing a great job and can improve every single day.

Our investment to leverage the Centre of Excellence team at Awardco was the best decision we made. Katie didn’t just advise, she partnered. She brought deep healthcare expertise and helped us translate what recognition should feel like for clinicians into something that actually works for a deskless, clinical workforce. With her leadership, we built our Awardco instance as a true virtual haven: a values-based recognition experience designed with and for our teams, easily accessible, and directly tied to our mission. The result is an always-on programme that makes it easy to celebrate the moments that matter — strengthening connection, belonging, and pride across the organisation.

High Flyer has given us a framework to consistently and meaningfully acknowledge employees, boosting morale and reinforcing the behaviours that drive success. Recognition now feels natural and embedded in our culture.

We've given our employees something they never had before: the power to choose their own rewards. And if that wasn't enough, we save money because the products aren't marked up! Awardco truly brought our recognition programmes into the 21st century.

I love being able to see the full feed of the entire university… before Awardco, I had no idea what was happening in other departments. Being able to see what’s happening across the university really helps you feel more connected.

The product that we're putting out is a lot of fun, but it is not easy to do what we do every single week. People are working really, really hard, and if they feel like just another cog in the machine, that can get disheartening really quickly. Taking that extra time to show appreciation for above-and-beyond effort is really important and reinforces good relationships.

We have an on-the-spot recognition programme where leaders can immediately recognise a CRP for demonstrating safe behaviour. That recognition is visible across the organisation, which motivates others to do the same. Instead of focusing on what went wrong, we’ve shifted our culture to spotlight what’s being done right—and that’s encouraged everyone to follow that path.
