It's a built-in way to say thanks every year.

Engagement is a buzzword for a reason—because engaged employees are productive, happy employees. But it’s not just about business outcomes, engaged employees actually drive better outcomes from top to bottom.

Awardco has helped us make recognition more worthwhile by improving employee morale and showing them that we care—recognition is more meaningful, so it's become more valuable to our employees.

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.

I love the customisation of the platform and the constant innovation. There are constant evolutions and enhancements being released to keep our solution cutting edge.

There are so many [reward] options, and everyone is already used to Amazon and knows what they can get. In the past, we had a catalogue of items, and it didn't feel like it would fit with our new demographic.

I really appreciate how myKudos [Awardco] offers different ‘classifications’ of shoutouts, so no matter how someone went above and beyond, there’s a way to recognise it. We work with some incredible people, and it’s important to celebrate them however we can.

We're present in pretty much every continent in the world, and there's no limitation to our recognition system. We see recognitions from Brazil to the US, from Japan to China, from South Africa to France, and everyone is engaged.

The ability to customise the platform and call it 'MyKUDOS' made it feel like a true extension of our brand and culture.

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.

Previously every manager hand-wrote a message to their employees every six months thanking them for their hard work, and it was all tied in with the bonus distribution. It was very high-touch, very labour intensive, and we had the process down to a science. We liked the connections that formed between managers and employees as a result of this programme, but after COVID-19 most of our workforce went remote. Our semi-annual tradition wasn't possible any longer, nor was it feasible.

I could rave to millions of people that I think this should be the platform of choice.

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

I love how simple Awardco is to use, both the main platform and the admin side, with how many reporting features it has to offer.
