"Nectar Makes Recognition Meaningful and Reinforces Company Values"
What do you like best about Nectar?

I use Nectar as the primary mechanism to provide praise and feedback to my team and internal partners. The point-giving system enables me to provide something of substance in addition to the praise itself. The simple structure of the tool also prompts me to tap into our company values which reinforces the corporate perspective (while 'reminding' me of those values on a regular basis).

What do you dislike about Nectar?

I only wish that I had an inexhaustable amount of points to provide to my partners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Nectar Makes Recognition Effortless and Boosts Team Morale"
What do you like best about Nectar?

Nectar has allowed our team to recognize and encourage one another in a meaningful way easily. Its intuitive interface lets us send recognition or rewards with just a few clicks, making it a daily habit rather than something we forget. This has significantly boosted team morale by allowing us to quickly acknowledge wins, big or small, fostering a positive work environment.

The platform saves time compared to other methods, keeping everything organized in one place. I've experienced no major issues, and onboarding was smooth due to its user-friendly design. Additionally, it encourages engagement between teams that may not typically interact.

Overall, Nectar enhances our work culture, increases engagement, and incorporates recognition into our daily routine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nectar?

Reporting and analytics could be more robust. While you can see general activity, more detailed insights into engagement trends or impact over time would help better measure usage and past recognition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Meaningful Recognition Made Better with Rewards"
What do you like best about Nectar?

Nectar lets me give credit where credit is due within my own time frame, in a way that feels meaningful rather than haphazard. It publicly recognizes people while also offering strong incentives to go the extra mile. I was able to start recognizing people right away—there was no learning curve—and I have enough points to recognize plenty of people throughout the month. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nectar?

Nothing - only quality of life suggestions unless they're already there and I don't know about them - mainly being able to personalize my feed in a larger company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Nectar Makes Peer-to-Peer Recognition Easy and Enjoyable"
What do you like best about Nectar?

I love that points can be awarded peer-to-peer instead of only from supervisor to subordinate; it makes it possible for so many more people to receive well-deserved recognition. I’ve used similar rewards systems before, and Nectar is the best I’ve tried in terms of both accessibility and ease of use. The email reminders are helpful without being annoying, and scrolling through the feed is genuinely a joy.

The variety of awards is impressive - not just corporate logo swag but giftcards from retailers I would've considered niche. I like other thoughtful features such as the ability to convert your points into awardable points. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nectar?

Honestly, the only negative thing I can think of (and this is stretching) is that I wish they had a wider selection of GIFs to add to recognitions? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Quick, Meaningful Recognition with Nectar—Made Even Easier in Microsoft Teams"
What do you like best about Nectar?

Nectar is a great way to give a meaningful and buildable appreciation shout out, while anchoring core values. It's a quick and easy way to acknowledge your coworkers, keep your core values in front of you and have a little fun at the same time. The fact that it is integrated with Microsoft Teams helps save time and get those shoutouts delivered quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nectar?

Honestly, I can't think of anything I dislike about Nectar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to Give and Redeem Nectar Points, with Helpful Email Reminders"
What do you like best about Nectar?

The most helpful thing for me is the frequent email reminders to send nectar points to my colleagues. Without those reminders, I’d be much less engaged because I get busy at work. Nectar points are easy to assign on the giving end, and they’re just as easy to redeem on the receiving end. I recently redeemed mine for a $100 Visa card, and I used it right away to take my wife to lunch. There are all kinds of gift card options available, which makes it even better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nectar?

Sometimes I don’t remember how the points translate to $. I think it’s 1,000 points equal $100, but I don’t always have that conversion in mind. It would be nice if certain gift cards could occasionally be “on sale”—for example, 900 points could get you a $100 gift card for select options (similar to how credit card companies do it). Other than that, I can’t really think of anything I dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Coworker Recognition and Rewards Platform"
What do you like best about Nectar?

I like how we as coworkers can send points to each other, and i like the different things you can buy with the points. I feel that it is a great platform to bring in a work environment Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nectar?

I really dont dislike anything, but I will say just sometimes login in and forgetting your login in and the whole process to get access into nector is a bit difficult, having to call Hr. And one more thing is new hires always have trouble getting access when they first start having it seamless and easier for new hires, I think would help nector more Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy-to-Use Peer Recognition That Truly Boosts Team Culture"
What do you like best about Nectar?

Nectar is genuinely easy to use, which is probably why our team actually adopted it. It makes peer recognition feel natural rather than forced, and that ends up meaning a lot to people. I have noticed it bring out a bit of healthy competitiveness too, people push themselves more when their work is being acknowledged. Low effort to set up, real impact on team culture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nectar?

Not much to dislike. If anything, I would like to see more customization options down the road, but it is not something that has gotten in the way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Versatile Rewards and Options That Make Nectar Shine"
What do you like best about Nectar?

Nectar is fantastic for the versatility. You aren't confined to having to choose one certain kind of reward and there are choices for using e-gifts as well as physical gift cards, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nectar?

Truthfully, I don't have anything that I dislike about Nectar. I think our company has a setting that does restrict the exchange of Nectar points for rewards after a certain number have been redeemed, but I'm not sure if that is a Nectar setting or not. That would be the only thing! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
