Spotsaas Editor’s POV

Kudos works best for organizations with 50+ employees where peer recognition drives engagement. Before shortlisting, verify that the platform's gift card catalog includes options relevant to your region—users in non-US markets have reported limited local redemption choices. Check whether your team will use points-based rewards or prefer direct recognition; Kudos ...Read more

"Kudos is great for co-workers and easy to navigate"

What do you like best about Kudos? I like that you can make others feel great with kudos and let them know how fantastic they're doing on their job. It allows employees to be rewarded and recognized for doing a good job at what they do. What do you dislike about Kudos? The navigation is fairly simple, but I would suggest maybe changing the way the kudos are distributed. The first time I used it it was a little confusing on where to click to give the kudos to others. Recommendations to ...

"Give your co-workers instant thanks!"

What do you like best about Kudos? I love how when someone helps you, you can instantly thank them for a job well done. In a world where we rush rush rush and never take the time to thank those who help us, it is lovely to have a quick to use website to give our thanks. What do you dislike about Kudos? Well, my company took away the giftcard rewards, and I miss those. I don't find anything about the site undesirable. I do not believe Kudos has an options in choosing what rewards the company ...

"Great for the TEAM! "

What do you like best about Kudos? I can send props to my co-workers, and give credit where credit is due! Such a great morale booster. Showing off my teams skills, and when they do great, has been the biggest reward. They're able to redeem their points for company items, and it gets others to want those items too! It's friendly competition, that's self rewarding in many ways. The team benefits from the "in-the-moment" recognition. It doesn't help to acknowledge someones handwork, a week ...

"Epic"

What do you like best about Kudos? I can privately give kudos . Refresh on number of kudos given per month and I am able to carry over. Vast kudos redemption options from leave days to gift cards.
