No need to send new team members a bunch of trainings about it. Also love how individualized the platform is\! > > **Cons**: Nectar doesn't cost much but my team loves using it so we do spend a good amount of money on rewards and challenges. That's a good and bad thing but it's up to us if we want to change this :) > > Everyone at Nectar has been amazing to work with. The set was easy and we have had a lot of fun with the platform\! ----- ### "I am not to sure what you mean by this" — 4.0/5 > **chris** | *March 12, 2026* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Interacting with co workers was pretty cool. There were also a lot of options for things to redeem on amazon > > **Cons**: not enough points to give out. It felt pointless to only give out anything less than 10 points, and because we were only allowed 50 points, I ran out pretty quick before the end of the month > > i enjoyed it, I was able to redeem a handful of cool things on amazon that i use to this day. It took a while to accumulate but it ended up being worth it ----- ### "Nice product, but small value" — 3.0/5 > **Emily** | *March 12, 2026* | Government Relations | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's nice to have positive feedback from your superiors about something specific, and it's great to have a little happy in return. > > **Cons**: The value of the gifts associated with feedback is so nominal, there is not a lot of incentive to use this program. ----- ### "Simple, Effective Platform for Everyday Recognition" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *December 8, 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Nectar has made peer recognition incredibly easy and visible across our organization. The interface is intuitive, so even new hires start using it on day one with almost no training. I like that points can be tied to our core values, which turns casual shout-outs into measurable culture wins. The reward catalog (especially the gift cards) gives people flexibility, and the ability to recognize teammates across departments has helped break down silos and boost collaboration. Customer support has also been responsive and helpful any time we’ve had questions. > > **Cons**: Reporting and analytics could be a bit deeper out of the box—especially around trends over time and team-level breakdowns. We’ve also had a few minor hiccups with delays on certain gift cards and redemptions, though they were resolved quickly. None of these are deal-breakers, but there’s room to level up the insights and fine-tune the reward experience. > > Overall, Nectar has been a strong value-add for our employee experience and engagement strategy. It gives managers and peers a low-friction way to recognize great work in real time, which has translated into higher morale and more cross-functional appreciation. Adoption has been high because the platform feels simple and modern rather than like “one more tool” we’re forcing on people. While there are a few areas where we’d love to see more advanced reporting and continued refinement of the rewards flow, Nectar has become a core part of how we reinforce our culture and celebrate wins across the team. ----- ### "MORE\! MORE\!\! MORE\!\!\!" — 5.0/5 > **Sophia** | *March 11, 2026* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Nectar gives an opportunity to be recognized and acknowledged by peers and management. It lets us rack up points and pick where we would like to spend out reward points. Such an awesome why to show appreciation for others, birthdays, holidays, just because\!\!\! > > **Cons**: The only con I can say, is that employees only have 50 points to give to others. 50 points only is $5.00. > > Truly is an absolute amazing way to show appreciation for others. Also an upside is a great way to have gift cards for holidays,birthdays and ubers :) ----- Page: 1 / 32\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/186557/perknow?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/186557/perknow) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
