We're a startup and we've been using Applauz for a few weeks right now. Overall, it's great. Setup was straightforward, there's a bunch of tools and new features have been added since I first installed it. Love it!

I wish I had to pay for it. Just kidding.

Fun to use, but didn't find it to be overly useful for us!

3.0 6 years ago

Comments: It gave us interesting ideas, we enjoyed using the software just didn't really fit with out operations.

Pros:

It's got an excellent user interface and UX design, so it's super easy to jump right in and start using Applauz for your employee recognition programs.

Cons:

It's not a knock on the software, but I just didn't find it brought that much value to us as an organization. We went back to our own "old-school" methods of recognizing our employees!

Comments: We are very pleased and after extensive research with many companies I feel we made the best choice we love it!

Pros:

It’s so easy and it encourages staff engagement to notice each other and the good things happening in our agency not just frontline but behind the scenes.

Cons:

I really can’t say. If I speak for the agency we have a few people that struggle with technology so they’d have comments about it being online Also on the recognition part the comment space need to allow for more space
