What do you like best about Kudoboard?

Easy navigation which is important since we use this platform on a weekly basis, Unlimited Features, Great Backgrounds and Images, Ease of Implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kudoboard?

I wish there was a way to have a full list of team members to pick from when scheduling out an email instead of using a previous list. I spend a good amount of time comparing emails and often find that when you select to pull over from the previous list, it does not always pull over every email that was previously entered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?

As of right now, it is solving us with birthday messages. In the future, I would like for it to be used for Anniversaries and team Shout outs on great work! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Kudoboard?

This is an easy way to recognize employees. It takes some time to setup on the front end but after it is setup, you do nothing. It auto delivers and our team loves it! I haven't had any issues where I need to contact customer support and I've been using it for about five months now. We use it primarily for birthdays but it is also good for other events as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kudoboard?

There isn't anything I strongly dislike about Kudoboard. There are things I wish it had though. I wish I could create a template where when I create a board, I can select the teams I want to invite to it and select who it is for within that team (kind of house an address list within it). I would love for it to auto send/ create things if I enter birthdays and anniversaries. Is it difficult for me to do these things manually though? No, absolutely not. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is showing some individualized recognition to our team members on our birthdays. Our team loves that they can leave their own messages, upload pictures, etc... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Kudoboard?

It is very easy to find the best card for the theme for the occasion being celebrated. The delivery option is user friendly and can schedule the card delivery with ease. Easy to set up account, review and revise items.

Quick customer response to issue or concerns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kudoboard?

the only dislike is the currency used for the gift or contribution portion. It is only in US dollars. Hopefully can have the option soon to choose the currency for the country you live in. Some people get antsy when they have to convert their contributons into another currency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?

it is helping to allevate the taks of buying cards and circulating for people to sign well wishes and for people to have the burden of collection funds for special occasion. In the office no one wants the responsiblity to chase after staff so Kudoboard helps to address that issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Kudoboard?

This is a great way to bring people together and recognize special occasions and accomplishments among staff or team members. It's a great vehicle to encourage people to share things they might not even remember to say out loud but that are so good for their co-workers to hear. The platform is so easy to use, both for the administrator and the participants - set up takes a few clicks and then you simply send a link and that's it. The options are extremely flexible and there are tons of choices for making unique boards. Can't recommend it enough! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kudoboard?

Literally nothing. I can't think of anything I would change. It is 100% fantastic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?

It simply makes it easier to communicate. No more sending someone out to purchase a card. No more passing it around surruptitiously in the office trying to get everyone's signatures (which is impossible these days because we all work remotely). No more remembering to purchase the gift card (or deciding WHICH gift card would be best). It just makes everything surrounding the important task of recognizing and lifting up your staff so much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm a manager in my division, so I am constantly juggling and prioritizing. Having the ease of use of a Kudoboard at my disposal allows me to be efficient without it being a burden on my task list. I work with amazing people, so showing my appreciation for this is very important. Kudoboard has awesome features that allow expression for numerous occasions. I use it about every other month because of its convenience. Whenever I have questions, they have an awesome customer support section with easily referenced information.

What do you dislike about Kudoboard?

It would be nice to buy a package of lite cards a year at a discounted rate vs individual cards. I would buy about 10 a year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Kudoboard?

Kudoboard is a clutter-free experience to recognize the people that mean so much to us. Compared to other sites, there are no ads or disruptions and the UI is very friendly to use. We use Kudoboards for birthday, work anniversaries, and other important life moments to show appreciation and recongize our talents- and it's great that Kudoboard has presets designs that fit those occasions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kudoboard?

I do wish there could be a free tier for smaller groups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?

Kudoboard has been extremely helpful in my efforts to maintain a strong work culture. My team is fully remote with employees all around the country, so it's crucial that we celebrate milestones and special occassions of each of the individual team members to show our appreciation and well wishes. And when it comes in a form of a visually pleasing virtual card filled with GIFs and memes, it almost always brighten the day for the recipient! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kudoboard?

I wish there was a music feature so as the recipient goes through all the posts, there's music playing in the background. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?

Kudoboard helped solve the problem of hybrid work. With not everyone in our teams being on site at the same time, it became harder to have people sign greeting cards or be present to give kudos to someone. Kudoboard totally solved that problem! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
