What do you like best about TruCentive?

TruCentive makes incentives quick and easy to deliver. Their team is super responsive, and the platform is wonderfully customizable and dynamic. I have been quite impressed how fast the team is to get back to me with any questions I've had during the implementation process. Another great thing about TruCentive is their early (and free) access to the platform so you can learn how to set up projects even during implementation so as to be ready to launch as fast as possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TruCentive?

I have found nothing to be dissatisfied with regarding TruCentive. They are responsive, the platform is great, their catalog of gift cards is expansive and everything is going well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We have a survey that has traditionally had a low response rate. We are looking to increase that response rate by providing an incentive for completion. The integration options offered by TruCentive fit our needs. Our response rate has increased. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Gonzalez of TruCentive

Hi Thomas, thank you so much for your thoughtful review of TruCentive! We are so glad we could help you with your survey incentives and we look forward to a rewarding partnership.

What do you like best about TruCentive?

When we were looking for a rock solid solution for fulfillment, I stumbled upon TruCentive... and I'm so glad I did. Seamless integration with SurveyMonkey means when we send out customer satisfaction surveys we don't have to worry about keeping track of respondents, making sure AP gets solid accounting, mailing out physical cards - none of that.. Although TruCentive makes their money per transaction, it's a small percentage - and is still much less than internal shipping and handling we'd have to pay otherwise. I highly recommend TruCentive! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TruCentive?

Interface takes a bit to get used to - especially when it comes to personalizing communication, But if you have questions or need help, they are quite responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We are an automotive finance company just beginning to scale up operations. As such, customer feedback is vital. We are small enough that I can still pivot when necessary - and open rates are abysmal without a carrot to dangle. TruCentive makes it easy to incentivize our surveys. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about TruCentive?

The system is very easy to use as the account administrator. The service I've received from the TruCentive staff has always been extremely timely, helpful and professional. Adding funds is relatively easy. They have helped us track our participant rewards much more comprehensively than with other systems we were using! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TruCentive?

When re-sending cards to participants, the sorting on the card listing goes back to the initial setting, not how I have sorted it. It makes it difficult to send out reminder emails to multiple participants. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

What do you like best about TruCentive?

The ability to choose digital reward codes. The support team has been amazing and super helpful supporting our unique configuration for our clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TruCentive?

There is not currently the option to combine multiple reward types into one project. Current setup requires individual projects per reward which makes it's manual to upload multiple lists per reward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It's allowing our customers options for physical and digital rewards. This makes it appealing to our variety in age groups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review! We are so glad you are enjoying the variety TruCentive has to offer!

What do you like best about TruCentive?

There are several upsides to using TrueCentive. Gift distribution is so easy, we are able to customize each message, unclaimed gifts are refunded to our account and the TrueCentive customer service is AMAZING!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TruCentive?

We have had some complaints from our non-tech-savy employees stating that is was hard to retrieve their gift cards. This was NOT a TrueCentive problem but an end user issue. Now that we have done several gift distributions, most of our employees have figured it our and things are running smoothly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

TrueCentive has solved the problem of distributing giftts to multiple locations and departments. It has also prevented people from misplacing a physical gift card. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about TruCentive?

TruCentive is a super easy platform to use and allows the employer to send recognition, gift cards, and other rewards to team members around the world in a few simple steps. The team at TruCentive is outstanding. They are responsive, helpful, friendly, and full of information. Getting started on the platform was easy as well. Albert Evans was really helpful and followed up with me consistently, even holding a 2nd demo meeting so that I could introduce the system to our Employee Resource Group. Also, I recently needed to turn a project around quickly and the team at TruCentive jumped right in to help me. Jim Meyer stayed late just to make sure I had everything I needed! I would recommend this platform to anyone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TruCentive?

I have not experienced a downside using TruCentive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The biggest problem I had was the ability to send gift cards or other types of recognition to employees outside of the USA. With TruCentive, I simply click on the countries I need, and I'm ready to go. It has solved a major headache for me! Also, the ability to mass send recognition is huge. Other platforms have required entering individuals one by one - very time consuming. With TruCentive, I upload a list, and it's done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Gonzalez of TruCentive

Hi Gina! Thank you so much for your thoughtful review, we are thrilled that TruCentive has streamlined your incentive delivery process! We look forward to working with you!

What do you like best about TruCentive?

TruCentive is a great partner for fulfilling incentives for research studies such as surveys, focus groups, and in-depth interviews. There is a small fee for each incentive, but if a respondent does not collect their incentive, the value is returned to your account for future use. The customer support is excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TruCentive?

The interface is not 100% intuitive, but customer support is available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The main problem TruCentive solves is the ease of distributing incentives to respondents. This lets me focus on analyzing the data! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about TruCentive?

TruCentive has an incredible customer service team that works with you to figure out what you need. Not only that, but the website evolves to make it easier to use. When we implemented TruCentive our incentives became much more tailored ot the invididual, and we can use the statistics to update what we offer. It was easy to use, and we can go in a couple times a month to make sure people are accepting the cards. You don't have to send one every day for birthdays or anniversaries, you can set them up together and forget about it. It is an easy to use platform that begins the day you start. We haven't had any issues, only more benefits come up. It's awesome to begin with TruCentive and even easier to keep it going! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TruCentive?

I wish there were more reporting capabilities. It would be interesting to pull reports showing which incentives people picked from previous years to compare. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It solves the problem of running out and picking up cards.

It also allows our employees to choose what they want instead of getting stuck with one specific card. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kate Gonzalez of TruCentive

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review! You actually can see what each recipient selected in the deliveries tab of your project but we love your suggestions for expanding the reports. If you have any questions about reports please don't hesitate to reach out to support@trucentive.com and we are happy to help.
