What differentiates Applauz Recognition from other similar products?

Not very knowledgeable of what other companies are doing. What I do know is applauz.me helped us understand that our employees craved more recognition form their managers, and applauz.me helped us delver exactly that.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Each manager has their own style, and for some giving public praise isnt part of their DNA. With the reminders and the dashboards, these managers now have a tool to guide them and allow them to say something thoughtful. Employees are responding very well to the appreciation they are receiving!

What do you dislike most about this product?

There should be pre-built templates in the perks marketplace, coming up with ideas wasnt natural for us.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

If you are scoring low on sentiment of appreciation or recognition in your annual survey, applauz.me can help you get better at it.
