Reviews of Applauz Recognition

Full features and easy to use, I can't believe Applauz is free
Pros:
The system is easy to use, and customer support is just amazing. The interface is also easy enough to use that I understood how to use the tools in minutes.
Cons:
it is necessary to prepare the HR team before implementing such a system, it is a big change that should not be underestimated.
Great platform for peer recognition and employee engagement
Comments: My experience with Applauz has been amazing. I have been able to obtain some great merch from our company, got some gift cards that purchased a brand-new Ninja for my kitchen, had some beautiful things said about me, and shared many kind words about my peers. Overall this is a great platform for peer recognition.
Pros:
I love that we can but internal company merch but also have the opportunity to buy other items in the Applauz store such as gift cards and even trips! The buy points feature is awesome if we need to top off our purchases too. The options are really endless with what we can do and im so happy our company chose to partner with Applauz!
Cons:
i kinda wish i didnt get daily emails for reminding me to recognize someone at 7pm and then again at 8am of who was recognized. Essentially 2x a day is quite a bit.
Fun to use, but didn't find it to be overly useful for us!
Comments: It gave us interesting ideas, we enjoyed using the software just didn't really fit with out operations.
Pros:
It's got an excellent user interface and UX design, so it's super easy to jump right in and start using Applauz for your employee recognition programs.
Cons:
It's not a knock on the software, but I just didn't find it brought that much value to us as an organization. We went back to our own "old-school" methods of recognizing our employees!
Recommended
Pros:
its focus on creating a culture of appreciation within teams. The platform makes it super easy to recognize and celebrate achievements, both big and small, which fosters a positive and motivating work environment.
Cons:
is that the customization options for rewards could be a bit more flexible. While the platform offers great features for recognizing achievements, I think expanding the variety of rewards or allowing for more personalization in the recognition process would enhance the experience even further.
what I love about applauz
Comments: I love it all together as we can recognize others for many different things such as helping, there for one another but you can also use it as a tool just to say good morning how is your day as our teams are spread apart so we can communicate even with other not in our district but that are part of the team over all
Pros:
I like that it gives us a chance to give recognition to others on the team.
Cons:
I've not found anything that i do not like about applauz

Round of Applause for Applauz
Comments: When we started using Applauz we expected to recognize agents for their attendance and quality scores. Applauz quickly became more than a recognition platform, it became part of our culture. Our staff welcomes each other every morning, they give each other high fives, show gratitude towards their peers and celebrate their own achievements.
Pros:
It is easy to use, employees love receiving Badges and points for different things and being able to exchange them for goods. It's a great tool to recognize employees for their achievements, and attendance.
Cons:
There's nothing I consider a con about Applauz.
Innovative recognition program
Comments: Applauz is the perfect way to give and receive recognition. I like the ability to recognize others via this platform. Being able to recognize others or be recognized by others and then being able to use the points for things I need is fantastic.
Pros:
I like the ability to use points the way I think is best for me.
Cons:
The catalogue of items to purchase with points could be slightly more organized but overall this is a very minor issue.
Excellent Service
Comments: I have had a very good experience with Applauz every time that I have ordered something. They are very fast at getting the items out also. Great plan to be part of.
Pros:
They have so many items to pick from and the quality of the items are great. They offer high end gifts to pick from. Great ideas.
Cons:
I don't have anything that I don't like about this program. I am very happy with everything and would highly recommend it to other companies.
Easy incentives for good work
Comments: Applauz is great because it allows the company to constantly offer incentives for good work without the hassle of having to come up with a plan for bonuses etc. Ive gotten a bunch of free meals just for doing work that I was already going to do anyway. Definitely encourages me to do extra whenever I can for the added incentive.
Pros:
Allows for extra incentives for work we are already doing.
Cons:
I haven't quite figured out the value changes between tiers for the gift card redemptions.
A good recognition software
Comments:
The website is well-designed and makes it easy to recognize and identify colleagues
A reliable recognition software that accurately identifies individuals and ensures easy colleague recognition.
Pros:
There’s nothing to complain about; everything is running smoothly.
Cons:
the marketplace maybe can have better filter
Applauz review

I like receiving points that I can purchase pretty much anything I want, including a wide range of gift cards.

I wish that the gift cards would show up a little quicker.
Applauz is great!
Comments: So far, it has been great for me. I have been able to recognize my agents and also redeem many badges and points for hundreds of dollars in Amazon gift cards.
Pros:
I like how easy it is to earn and redeem rewards and having a platform to recognize my peers for their good work.
Cons:
I do not like the limited post reactions available.
