What do you like best about Matter?

Matter helped us to show employee appreciation, not just through the love shown by others, but also with financial inventives. Usage for our company has been at around 65% weekly, and the feedback from the team has been exceptional. We used to just use a simple Jotform and call them "Zaps" but there was no upside to using it, and it was extremely time consuming to have to read them manually to everyone monthly. All in all it was a good investment, especially since our team is on the road most of the time, they're able to communicate and share appreciation in a public forum, allowing everyone to get to know each other a bit better while also being rewarded. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Matter?

It's a bit pricey, but still market average. It didn't integrate with Google chat, which is our primary resource for office communications so we had to add Slack primarily for Matter, but that's it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It solved the lack of communication and usage of our previous appreciation workflow that was rarely used. It helped with employee recognition, as managers use it to give shout outs when KPI's are hit, and when stellar service or goals are provided and reached. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Matter?

The most helpful part of Matter is that it encourages positive feedback from peers. Sometimes when we think about employee engagement we think in terms of top-down, that it should be coming from managers, but I think peer feedback is just as (if not more) meaningful. I love that the coins add up towards real gift cards that employees can use however they wish. I love that the integration with Slack is seemless! Approving gift card requests is so easy! I love how easy it is to keep track of everyone's birthdays and work anniversaries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Matter?

No downsides to using Matter that I can think of. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Matter has been a great tool for our company's culture, specifically our people operations team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It allows everyone to give and receive positive feedback, celebrate goals and achievements, and recognize good performance.

This fosters a positive and motivating workplace culture, promoting growth and collaboration among team members. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Matter?

sometimes you may forget about somebody or completely omit somebody due to not going above and beyond, this can affect negatively those underperforming.

Sometimes you feel obligated to give Kudos, even when somebody is not deserving because of this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Matter?

One of Matter's standout features is its intuitive and clean interface. Whether you’re tech-savvy or not, navigating the app feels effortless. The design prioritizes simplicity, so users can quickly jump into giving and receiving feedback without the frustration of a complicated setup or overwhelming options. I enjoy the integration with Slack and the ease with which you can celebrate team wins, birthdays and work anniversaries.

It supports people using it frequently and I like the reminders and that it doesn't take long to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Matter?

The range of apps it integrates with is still limited and growing but this would be the only drawback for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Often you get too busy in the workweek to stop and give thanks to all the people who support or do a really good job in the company, this makes employee recognition simple, fast and seamless with the workday as it integrates to Slack which is where we do most of our communication. It also allows you to see what people are appreciative on in the team and highlight stand out team players. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Matter?

I love the Kudos function, and how well it integrates into Teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Matter?

Their storefront to spend the coins is not easily customizable. I would love to see a more customer facing store, where I can personalize the coin spending to maximize my own brand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The ability for employees to very easily send a Kudos to another employee is FANTASTIC. It really boosts employee morale, and allows employees to feel connected to each other. It really showcases how easy it is to improve someones day, by doing something as small as thanking them for holding the door when your hands were full. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Matter?

In the last four years we have doubled our number of full time staff and have been recently struggling with communication and visibility between departments, despite our staff working closely together. Matter has put kudos in the hands of individual staff, giving them each the power to make a difference in our culture. This has also increased visibility of the great things our part-time staff do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Matter?

Matter often kicks off Monday messages on national holidays. It would be nice if I could click a box to default these messages to the next day. I find we get much less engagement when these messages are posted on work holidays; many of us still work these, but many are away and staff are cognisant of when they post and who gets a notification. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We had a morale problem; everyone was working in a vacuum. Big things got shared but the little thanks bring people joy day to day. An educator might share that the accountant dynamically improved a daily excel schedule, which saves her time. Someone had a spider in their office, and someone jumped in to help. Managers can highlight important behind-the-scenes projects that staff are working on. It's been great. I love seeing the positivity ring through Slack, and its great to actively see the cheerleaders of our organization stepping in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

3. To be feel a winner as always, Matter make me feels like a champion it motivates me to excel further.

It is very user friendly and I tend to make my own custom Kudos which I enjoy.

There's nothing I can say to dislike Matter. As what I have experience as an Freelancer it is a flawless platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'am working on a work from home setup. Working alone and no one appreciating or cheering will create burnout. But Matter solve this colleagues are able to express there gratitude using this platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Matter?

The implementation was ALMOST the easiest thing in the world, honestly if it would work with G chat it would be, but we have a MDM on all of our devices, so I was able to send slack, setup a channel for our company, and implement Matter all within a few days. The recoginition, the kudos that our team gets to use, and they can't be stacked so everyone gets a set amount weekly, makes it super easy. We made a very large increase in retention, and we did do a lot, but Matter definitely helped. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Matter?

The lack of G chat implementation. That's about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Employee recognition, the diverse culture, the lack of daily offce visits, and the need for management to be able to recognize employees often, that's how it benefits us. People feel seen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The easy to use UI and the integration with Slack is what I liked the most about Matter Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Matter?

There are some downsides of Matter Bot on Slack like lack of some explicit options that may help in cases where the user doesn't want to notify the folks to whom others the user has appreciated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Whenever someone helps some other person on the team, we use it as a medium to appreciate or provide feedback to them in the form of Matter Coins which can be redeemed. This helps us engage and thank the helping hands. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Matter?

It's been great for our fully remote company- its easy to use and fun to make custom kudos. I like that it gets people interacting kind of "off topic" while at work. If we could do gif options or have the custom part of kudos upload area be a bit larger that would be cool too1 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Matter?

Wish we could see what we have given for Kudos - like a history. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Just building engagement- for a fully remote company, that can be a challenge. This gets us sort of gathered in one spot at least on Fridays. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
