How do you position yourself against your competitors?

Here at Motivosity, we know that company SWAG and gift cards are cool, but ultimately NOT what gets employees excited about work!

What do you like best about Motivosity?

Motivosity is a great way to encourage coworkers to give each other gifts, thank eachother, and recognize the each other for the work they do. The platform has given me a way to tangibly thank and appreciate my coworkers much more than I otherwise would along with giving them a small amount of money as a gift. Receiving thanks from coworkers has also been incredibly nice as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Motivosity?

I can't think of many downsides of motivosity, if I had to pick one, I would say that I would like a larger amount of money to give to people each month, 5 dollars does not go very far when I have several employees I want to thank for their work, but I realise that increasing the amount of money each employee can give in a large company might be difficult financially.

Motivosity helps me thank and appreciate my coworkers more Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Stephen Jolley of Motivosity

Thanks for positive insight! We hope to earn a couple more stars in the future. Great insight on the budget for giving and I'd recommend admins using our leveling adjustments for people leaders or added spot recognition budget. Thanks for being active in recognizing your team.

What do you like best about Motivosity?

I love that Motivosity allows me to recognize my co-workers at key times when they really pull through for me or my team. It's simple and quick and creates an environment of appreciation. One of the best employee morale services I've experienced.

I also love that we can fund it to give to employees for special things such as holidays. Sometimes the logistics of buying a bunch of gifts cards can be a nightmare and Motivosity makes it so easy and ensures the employees receive it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Motivosity?

I think the UI has come a long way, but I'd love to see more technological improvements and features so it continues to stay an up-to-date social site and new, creative ways of saying thanks Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Provides a great way to say thanks, when just a chat "thank you" doesn't seem to be enough Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Motivosity?

I love that Motivosity allows you to quickly add a thank you and send funds to colleagues. The search field to add their name quickly is an added bonus when wanting to send a quick thank you but also being able to add a note of extra gratitude. Motivosity is easy to use and it's nice to see who you have thanked on your own team and see the highlights. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Motivosity?

Having pop ups each time about wanting to review/snooze something every time I log in can be annoying- but you are able to snooze for 30 days at a time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Helps to thank coworkers and people in other depts quickly and at the time of appreciation instead of having to wait for another opportunity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Motivosity?

I think one of the best things about Motivosity is how it fosters a culture of appreciation and recognition within teams. By making it easy for colleagues to give and receive recognition, it helps build stronger connections, boosts morale, and encourages a positive work environment. It’s great to see a tool that prioritizes celebrating achievements and reinforcing a supportive workplace culture! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Motivosity?

Complexity in Customization: Some users find it challenging to fully customize recognition programs or integrate the platform seamlessly with other tools.

Cost Considerations: For smaller organizations, the cost of the platform might be a concern, particularly if they are budget-conscious.

User Engagement: Achieving consistent and meaningful engagement can be difficult if the platform isn't actively used or if recognition isn't integrated into daily workflows.

Limited Analytics: Some users feel that the analytics and reporting features could be more robust to better measure the impact of recognition programs.

These are areas where improvements could potentially enhance the overall experience and effectiveness of the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Lack of Recognition: Many employees feel undervalued if their efforts and achievements go unnoticed. Motivosity makes it easy for team members to give and receive recognition, ensuring that contributions are acknowledged and celebrated.

Building a Positive Culture: Creating a positive and supportive work environment can be challenging. By encouraging regular feedback and appreciation, Motivosity helps foster a culture of mutual respect and encouragement.

Improving Employee Engagement: Engaged employees are more productive and committed. Motivosity enhances engagement by making recognition a regular part of the workplace experience, which can lead to higher job satisfaction and retention.

Tracking and Measuring Impact: It can be difficult to quantify the impact of recognition programs. Motivosity provides analytics and insights that help organizations track the effectiveness of their recognition efforts and understand their impact on employee morale and performance.

Encouraging Peer-to-Peer Interaction: Traditional recognition methods often come from management only. Motivosity facilitates peer-to-peer recognition, promoting a more inclusive and collaborative environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Motivosity?

Motivosity's interface is incredibly user-friendly and visually appealing. The ease of navigation allows all team members, regardless of their technical proficiency, to engage actively with the platform. Recognizing and rewarding peers is straightforward and fun, promoting widespread use and interaction.

One of Motivosity's greatest strengths is its emphasis on peer-to-peer recognition. This feature empowers every employee to acknowledge their colleagues' contributions, fostering a culture of appreciation and collaboration. The ability to give "Motivosity $" and share positive feedback publicly has significantly boosted morale within our organization.

The customizable rewards system is another highlight. The diverse range of rewards ensures that there is something motivating for everyone. This flexibility keeps the recognition program fresh and exciting.

The real-time feedback and analytics provided by Motivosity are invaluable. The platform offers detailed insights into recognition trends, employee engagement levels, and overall morale. These metrics help us identify areas needing attention, enabling us to make data-driven decisions to improve our workplace culture continuously.

In conclusion, Motivosity is a transformative recognition platform that has improved our workplace culture. Its user-friendly interface, emphasis on peer recognition, customizable rewards, real-time insights, seamless integration, and exceptional support make it an outstanding tool for any organization. I highly recommend Motivosity to any company seeking to foster a more engaged, motivated, and appreciative team, while looking forward to seeing more customization options in future updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Motivosity?

While Motivosity excels in many areas, there is room for improvement in its ability to customize accsss or viewing of organizations by location or department. As our company is spread across multiple locations and departments, having more granular customization options would enhance our ability to tailor recognition programs to specific groups. This feature would help us address unique cultural and operational needs more effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It has transformed the way our team approaches recognition and employee engagement. This platform stands out as a top-notch solution for fostering a positive and motivating workplace culture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Motivosity?

User-friendly app that can be used on cell phones for employees who work out in our Manufacturing plant. It works well for our Spanish-speaking employees.

Our employees love the Thanks Matter debit card they can use anywhere at any time or they can use their Motivosity Bucks to buy gift cards.

The Quarterly Engagement Survey is very helpful to get a pulse on employee satisfaction.

Pricing is reasonable, not the lowest out there but not the highest.

There are many different options to recognize employees that are tied to our employee values.

Employees get a small budget per month to appreciate their peers which they enjoy giving.

There are many options to recognize including "Just Because", Spotlight awards, and Achievement Awards.

The reporting options are expansive and insightful.

I like that we can make company Announcements and it sends a push notification to each employee. We announce employee events, promotions, and new hires just to name a few!

Employees can share a highlight such as a new baby or marriage.

Implementation was simple and took less than a day.

Customer support has been great, but I rarely need it.

The app is used several times a day, 80% of our employees are using the app at least twice a month or more.

We integrate with Teams which was nice, it shows notifications directly in Notifications for Teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Motivosity?

It would be nice if they could integrate into HRIS systems, but I am confident it will get there eventually. We will renew again with them for next year. This will be our 3rd year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Motivosity ensures that everyone is getting recognized on their birthday and anniversaries which has saved me days, even weeks of time.

It reminds managers that they need to recognize all their employees, fairly. That no one is forgotten.

Employee satisfaction improved with the implementation of Motivosity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Stephen Jolley of Motivosity

We're delighted to hear that Motivosity has had such a positive impact on your organization, from improving employee satisfaction to streamlining recognition for birthdays and anniversaries. We're pleased that our app has been well-received by your employees and that the integration with Teams has been beneficial. We appreciate your feedback on HRIS integration and will certainly take it into consideration for future enhancements. Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to continuing to meet your employee engagement needs.

What do you like best about Motivosity?

The ability to reward my coworkers with real money and to recognize their accomplishments or to thank them for assistance that they have given. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Motivosity?

There's nothing to dislike -- it is very simple to use both from the computer or from a mobile device and there are a wide range of rewards to choose from. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Motivosity:

This is a great product for building company morale and encouraging a spirit of helpfulness. It is extremely easy to use and makes rewarding your peers and coworkers fun! The rewards are wonderful -- from Vanilla Visa gift cards to other store gift cards (Amazon, iTunes, Best Buy etc.). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We are using this to solve the issue that verbal Kudos were nice, but don't have as much weight as a financial or gift reward. Our team adopted this immediately and really enjoy giving one another kudos and motivosity! We have also been using the ability to send Motivosity rewards to our Partners to thank them or give them gifts for birthdays or anniversaries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Stephen Jolley of Motivosity

Thanks so much for sharing. Love the effort using Motivosity to assist with external gifting along with your internal programs. We take pride helping build unity, positivity, and connection through workplace gratitude. We appreciate the positive review.
