"Brings Teams Closer Together, Celebrating Everyone"

4/5

What do you like best about Recognize?

I like that it is a way to bring the teams we work in closer together and that we celebrate each person! It is easy to use when needed and easy to implement into work life. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recognize?

I would say a downside to Recognize might be having to log in and out every so often in order to see notifications fully however this is just a general downside to most website emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It helps solve the business problem of recognition for employees hard work and dedication. Sometimes it can go by unseen but with Recognize its easier to be able to appreciate someone and let them know how important they are to the team, letting them know their work doesn't go by Unrecognized.

"Recognition That Rocks… With Room to Grow"

5/5

What do you like best about Recognize?

I like that Recognize makes it easy to acknowledge and celebrate the contributions of my colleagues. It creates a positive and motivating work environment and helps build stronger team connections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recognize?

One area for improvement is that sometimes it can feel like recognition is limited to certain teams or projects. Expanding opportunities for everyone to be recognized consistently would make it even more impactful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"This platform makes me as employee better and it's putting always a smile to my face."

"Simplicity that Facilitates Daily Life"

4/5

What do you like best about Recognize?

Simplicity in describing motivations and making notes. Quick responses for everyone and views. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recognize?

little punctuation to divide, because sometimes many are deserving but such limitation prevents us from managing better, whether in quantity or limited to 2 points per recognition Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Solve the engagement problem, which enhances the generation of identification and connection with the involved project, because for me, it has become a motivational agent to apply in improvements, as positive feedback shows us that we are getting it right, and when we do not achieve recognition, it motivates us to seek improvements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thanks, Ronaldo! We’re glad you’re enjoying how simple and motivating it is. Just a note, the points and limits are managed by your company admin, but we appreciate you sharing your perspective. Keep us posted if there’s anything more we can do for you.

"Review of Recognize app"

5/5

What do you like best about Recognize?

It is a very easy-to-navigate application and it really helps colleagues know when you are grateful for their support and a job well done. I use it at least once a month, and the rewards can be exchanged without any issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recognize?

I would add more places to exchange the reward, but in general the app is easy to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Camille Escobar of Recognize

edit

Thanks, Carolina! There’s a wide selection of rewards available, though what you see can depend on what’s been made available by your company. We appreciate the feedback, and feel free to keep us posted if there’s anything we can do for you.

"Professional and friendly"

5/5

What do you like best about Recognize?

Ease of use, the platform is extremely easy to use and navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recognize?

I wish that you could not only allow the recognition go to the manager/people leader but also select others to see who you're recognizing and the message you input. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Using this platform has made it much easier to recognize people for their accomplishments. Before, my shout‑outs were only seen by the individual or their manager and weren’t stored anywhere the broader company could view or revisit. Recognize gives us a centralized, visible place for all kudos, creating a single source of truth for employee recognition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Camille Escobar of Recognize

Thanks for sharing! Glad to hear it’s been boosting morale. Recognitions can be viewed in the company stream/feed unless they’re marked as private. Let us know if there’s anything we can do for you.

"Great Employee Recognition Idea, But Points Value Feels Too Low"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Recognize?

I think its a unique incentive for employees to better appreciate what we do for one another. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recognize?

$1 per point is really low and obviously takes forever to ever amount to anything. You should implement a policy where the employer is required to match our points. We're all underpaid and unhappy and Recognize is very much a very small bandage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Camille Escobar of Recognize

edit

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! The point-to-dollar value can vary, but $1 per point is actually one of the highest ratios available. The overall impact often depends on how points are distributed, and we appreciate you highlighting this. Let us know if there’s anything we can do for you.
