"Recognize Makes Shoutouts Easy and Boosts Team Morale"
What do you like best about Recognize?

What I like best about Recognize is how easy it makes it to celebrate the people around me. I love being able to give a quick shoutout when someone goes above and beyond, it feels genuine and meaningful. It’s also really motivating to see the great work happening across the team and to know we’re all supporting each other. I really love this idea where you can say something to anyone in the organization about the good works or contribution. It really boost morale and make everyone inclusive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recognize?

Sometimes I forget to use Recognize when things get busy. I know it’s important, but in the middle of a hectic day, it can slip my mind. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Camille Escobar of Recognize

Thanks, Jerome! We’re glad it’s been helping boost morale and connection across your team. Even quick shoutouts make a big difference. Keep us posted if there’s anything we can do for you.

"Effortless Recognition that Boosts Team Morale"
What do you like best about Recognize?

I use Recognize to appreciate and reward team members for their contributions, and it helps make recognition visible across the organization. I love how it helps celebrate wins, reinforces positive behavior, and strengthens team morale without the hassle of manual tracking. A key feature I appreciate is the activity feed, where everyone’s recognitions show up, making achievements and shout-outs visible to the whole team. The setup was fairly straightforward too, and the integration with other tools in our workflow, like communication and HR platforms, makes it natural to celebrate wins without switching apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recognize?

One thing that could be improved in Recognize is how crowded the activity feed can get when multiple teams are active. It sometimes makes it harder to spot the most meaningful recognitions without scrolling. Better filtering or sorting in the activity feed would help surface the most relevant or impactful recognitions, especially in larger teams. This would make it easier to focus on meaningful moments instead of scrolling through everything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Camille Escobar of Recognize

We totally agree! There are the teams on the left to filter on your group, but we want to make the feed more meaningful by default this year. Thanks for the feedback.

"Diverse Recognition Categories with Seamless Setup"
What do you like best about Recognize?

I appreciate Recognize for allowing us to give recognition to those who are excelling or simply doing what they're supposed to, especially since people often only hear feedback when there's a need for correction. I like the diversity in the recognition categories, which cover areas such as teamwork, going above and beyond, being compassionate, and being there for others. It's great how Recognize enables us to acknowledge various efforts and contributions across different domains. I also really enjoy using the points system and the ability to comment on people when they're recognized by others, which acts as a social hub for additional support and appreciation. It's very user-friendly and easy to access, making the setup process smooth and easy to start using right away. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recognize?

I haven't found anything that doesn't work for me with Recognize. The only thing I think could be improved is maybe having different categories for recognizing people, like more related to social appreciation such as a good friend, care, an implementer, or someone there for mental health support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Camille Escobar of Recognize

Thanks, Marvin! We’re glad you’re enjoying the experience. More recognition categories would be a great addition; those can be customized by your company, so it might be worth sharing the idea with your admins. Let us know if there’s anything we can do for you.

"Recognizes Builds Community and Appreciation with Real-Time Recognition"
What do you like best about Recognize?

I think Recognizes an important tool in order to make employees feel more seen and appreciated on a personal level. This is even more true in the growing corporate atmospheres of this day and age. The interface allows people to be more expressive on what one of their fellow coworkers and others employees excel and and work hard to achieve. I think the ability to check and receive notifications through emails and the homepage on what people are recognizing you for is helpful. This increases a feeling of community granted the real time updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recognize?

I think that Recognize should have a panel or a quick link to your personal Recognize notes from others somewhere on the Stream tab without clicking your points bar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Camille Escobar of Recognize

Thanks for sharing! We’re glad it’s helping build community and appreciation. We’re planning to redesign the stream page this year and will definitely consider your feedback. Let us know if there’s anything we can do for you.

"A Convenient Portal for Sharing Colleague Appreciation"
What do you like best about Recognize?

It's nice to know when your colleagues appreciate the work you're doing. It isn't always easy to give that feedback on the spot or in person, so having a portal to do it after the fact at your own convenience helps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recognize?

At some point it feels a little meaningless to give that feedback for certain things... But I don't necessarily put that on the shoulders of the apparatus we're using. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Camille Escobar of Recognize

Thanks for sharing, Alex. We hope recognition continues to feel meaningful in your workplace. Let us know if there’s anything we can do.

"Customizable and Uplifting Way to Celebrate Coworkers"
What do you like best about Recognize?

I really appreciate how customizable and creative Recognize is when it comes to sharing appreciation with my coworkers. I also find it very easy to access all the features when recognizing people who have made a positive impact at work. It feels good to be acknowledged by coworkers and managers, even for the smallest contributions, and I try to use Recognize as often as possible to express my gratitude. Additionally, I enjoy being able to see the recognition others receive for their efforts, as it offers a great perspective on the ways people contribute beyond my usual collaborations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recognize?

I really don't have much negative feedback about Recognize. So far, I haven't come across anything I dislike about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Camille Escobar of Recognize

That’s fantastic, Tiffany! We’re so happy to hear how much you’re enjoying the platform. Keep us posted if there’s ever anything we can do for you.

"Recognize Makes Achievements Visible and Celebrates My Growth"
What do you like best about Recognize?

I like how Recognize allows others (and myself) to see the accomplishments I have made throughout the years. It made me feel good seeing my growth and knowing others appreciate my hard work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recognize?

I have heard that I am supposed to recover a tshirt, but have not received it yet. It would be really cool if there were options for incentives per badge earned. For example, you could pick from a tshirt, socks, extra %15 off banfield store, etc. But that’s just a random thought. I’m very appreciative of the tshirt I am supposed to receive. Lol Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Camille Escobar of Recognize

If you haven't received an item yet, contact our support, and we can look into it for you. Your second point is to give extra discounts in the store when you receive certain recognitions. This is a great idea we have considered, like additional access that can be unlocked. Great idea!

"Great Recognition Product!"
What do you like best about Recognize?

I love that this program was incorporated right into Teams. It made it very easy to use along with my daily duties that already exist. I really like that the app sends reminders for team members who have not received any recognition. It is also very easy to use and has great features. (like the ability to transfer your points to gift cards.) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recognize?

It was a little difficult in the beginning to figure out how to send the recognition. I would like to see a tab or button for easy access to that screen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Camille Escobar of Recognize

Thanks, Artavia! We’re glad it fits so smoothly into your daily workflow. If you ever need help getting started or navigating features, please don't hesitate to contact our support team at support@recognizeapp.com. We’re always happy to assist.
