Bonusly Pros and Cons

Bonusly causes a chain reaction of engagement - one recognition turns into multiple reactions, add-on recognition, and positive conversation amongst teams and colleagues.

Bonusly is simple to use and easy to integrate into Slack for ideal visibility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The frequency of use varies significantly from month to month and recognition credits often go to waste. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that Bonusly gives employees a free option to acknowledge their peers and thank them for their work and positive impact. Even if the actual $ value is not that much, it still feels good to be acknowledged when you receive 20 points for work well done. It's also nice you can let your received points add up throughout the year and redeem a gift card at the end. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can never find a good way to easily view my history of who I've given to. I'd like to see myself only. Sometimes I forget if I've given bonusly or something already or not, or would also like to see if I recognized som eone recently so sould potentially recognize someone else instead, or vice-versa.

I like how easy to use Bonusly is: you can use the Slack integration or the website. Introducing this tool in our teams gave more visibility to some people's work that sometimes it is not that visible or go unnotice. Also having a monthly frequency when it comes to the points helps team members to highlight aspects of the work that those specific teams have been doing during those days (easy tracking of the wins of our teams). Moreover, I think the rewards catalogue is really on point and we have a pretty nice variety. Eventually, the fact that you can add gifs/images made everything funnier and it can help developing a healthier team atmosphere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some rewards are too expensive (I personally think EA games should be cheaper). And I want to highlight that some people tend to recognise others via Bonusly-only and forget about doing that in person and via other methods. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Bonusly empowers managers by providing tools to track progress, align team goals, and facilitate feedback. This makes it easier for managers to support individual growth and ensure everyone is aligned with company values and objectives. The ability to automate milestones and provide rewards not only reduces administrative burdens but also ensures that important moments aren’t missed. Overall, Bonusly stands out for its ability to motivate teams, celebrate successes, and build a positive, engaged work culture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Bonusly emphasizes visibility and tracking of progress, it may not fully capture the nuance of individual performance and personal growth outside of the system’s framework. This could feel a bit transactional, lacking in other aspects that can truly inspire and motivate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Bonusly is very motivational because we feel rewarded when doing good thing to co-workers and it helps me to strive more to make my job perfect. Also, it is very easy to claim the vouchers and to use it because all the participating shops are very useful in my daily life. The Bonusly system is also very simple to implement and integrate in the team, we just have to give each other points to make them feel that we are grateful. The customer service is also very convenient, they are very helpful and will reach out very timely if out team is experiencing any issues. Bonusly is a platform that we use in our everyday life, we sometimes use the points in our team dinners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I dislike about Bonusly is the give-able points is expiring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best part I like about Bonusly is we can give points very easily to our team mates, colleagues and one can redeem them at a different number of shopping platforms, pharmacies, online food deliveries, and donations, we can convert the points into amounts using some international platforms. Customer Support is also very prompt. I use it very frequently 10 days once to encourage my colleagues. Implementation is also straightforward, and both app and desktop versions are available. Integrating with other software is also very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only dislike I have at present is when it comes to redemption for smaller amounts of points it is not giving an option at some of the well used shopping platform like AMAZON. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that I get to thank my colleagues who help me out or give a shot out to someone I see going above and beyond in a meaningful way that produces real rewards for them in terms of gift cards they can cash out. My company loves that we can add GIFs to our messages to make it more fun Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the downside to bonusly is that its easy to game. Work buddies can easily conspire to just gift eachother all their bonuslys and cashout each month. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As an employee, it provides a location where I can give our company visibility to some of the great work being performed day to day that would otherwise go un noticed or unrecognized. It also provides a central place for management and HR to provide benefit payouts that makese it easy to track for financial purposes where we would previously had manually purchased and recorded gift cards. The integration of emojis and GIFs makes the posts fun and often pulls in others to join in the celebration, and it shows even the small shout outs can create a big change in employee morale just to know their efforts are recognized and rewarded even if in small doses. It lends itself to the platform being used more frequently and making sure employees end the month having used their monthly allowance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are some limitations and features we would love to see expanded, but those are feature enhancements more than they are issues with the platform itself. It would be great to include some gamification features that further engage employees and perhaps make some fun internal competitions, but at it's core it's a pretty solid product for what we needed.

Me agrada tener la aplicacion para hacer comentarios o felicitaciones a mis compañeros de trabajo. Recibir reconocimiento por parte de mis compañeros tambien es muy agradable, lo uso todos los meses, es facil redimir mis puntos, usualmente siempre los redimo en amazon donde encuentro productos que necesito. Rara vez he tenido que usar soporte al cliente debido a que es muy intuitivo y rapido.

Es facil implementarlo en la cotidionidad y facil de integrar tambien. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No creo que este sobre el control de bonusly, pero me gustaria poder entregar mas puntos al mes para poder dividerlos con todos mis compañeros con notas de agradecimiento!. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Bonus.ly keeps our team connected through simple, effective recognition. The tool was easy to implement and is straightforward to navigate. Our team uses it frequently, making recognition a part of our daily routine. The customer support is dependable and helpful. The numerous features and easy integration add extra value to our work environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The reporting features are fairly basic. They offer enough insight to track our progress, but more detailed analytics might help us understand trends even better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
