"User-Friendly Peer Recognition with Helpful Mobile & Email Notifications"
What do you like best about Nectar?

Nectar is a very user-friendly platform. It not only walks you through the process of recognizing a peer, but it’s also laid out in a way that’s easy to navigate. I also appreciate the push notifications in the mobile app, along with the email notifications, which make it easy to stay on top of updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nectar?

Redeeming rewards only in whole amounts can be difficult at times. I feel like I’ve left points on the table because I didn’t have quite enough to redeem them when I wanted to. I also wish the points could carry over from year to year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Familiar Facebook- Easy to Use"
What do you like best about Nectar?

What do you dislike about Nectar?

The downside is that everyone can see who you give Nectar points to, and who you don’t give them to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Nectar of the Gods!"
What do you like best about Nectar?

Everything. The interface is easy to use and very intuitive. The shoutouts to be engaging with gifs/emojis help make it fun. Being able to see leaderboards is a great way to gamify the experience, also. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nectar?

I find the login process to be a bit clunky - this could be our own system, but often I have to authenticate and would prefer a remember me or something just to make dropping in/out quick. This is exceedingly nitpicking, so please keep that in mind. In general I do find the interface/user experience to be fantastic! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Recognition Across Global Teams"
What do you like best about Nectar?

It's really easy to use and a lovely way to make colleagues feel appreciated. It is especially good for international and remote teams as there are options for cashing in your points in all countries. I am in Portugal and I have colleagues in Italy, Northern Ireland, South Africa, Spain and England. It is great that we can all use this platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nectar?

In general Nectar is great but the 2FA every single time i log is a little annoying, it always thinks I am on a new device but I am never on a new device. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy Co-Worker Recognition with Seamless Microsoft Sign-In"
What do you like best about Nectar?

I like how easy it is to recognize my co-workers for their help by being able easily search for their name and how well it's integrated with Microsoft to make it an easy sign in experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nectar?

The biggest downside I've found is that points need cashed in closer to the beginning of the month. If you wait until the middle or end of the month to use them, you can get locked out and unable to cash in until the start of the next month. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for coworker shout-outs and wellness, but the login and setup could be simpler"
What do you like best about Nectar?

I love the ability to publicly thank my coworkers for all the help, teamwork, professionalism and guidance that they give me.

I like the focus on health.

LOVE our town SWAG. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nectar?

I wouldn't even have any idea how to log onto it and couldn't use it without the (very helpful) links.

I THINK I can add my 3-mile walks to work somehow...but haven't really had the time to play with it or to figure it out (yet). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
