# Which recognition platforms connect with Slack, Microsoft Teams or HRIS systems so recognition actually happens where employees already work?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Which recognition platforms connect with Slack, Microsoft Teams, or HRIS systems so recognition actually happens where employees already work? Researching this in the <a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/employee-recognition">employee recognition software</a> category on G2, it's clear that integration depth varies a lot — some tools have a basic Slack notification while others are fully functional inside the messaging app without ever needing to open a separate tab.</p><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Here are some of the top-rated options that reviewers specifically mention for this:</p><ul>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/nectar/reviews"><strong>Nectar</strong></a> (G2 rating: 4.7 out of 5 stars, 8,562 reviews): Mid-market reviewers mention using Nectar directly inside Microsoft Teams for shoutouts, with recognition appearing in the Teams feed instantly. Does it also sync bidirectionally with your HRIS?</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/bonusly-bonusly/reviews"><strong>Bonusly</strong></a> (G2 rating: 4.7 out of 5 stars, 6,886 reviews): Strong presence in small business reviews for its Slack integration — employees give and receive recognition without ever leaving their main workspace. The HRIS connections (BambooHR, Workday, others) get called out for keeping user lists current automatically.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/awardco/reviews"><strong>Awardco</strong></a> (G2 rating: 4.9 out of 5 stars, 6,166 reviews): Reviewers frequently highlight Teams and Slack support alongside Amazon Business integration, which means employees can both recognize peers and redeem rewards within the platforms they already have open.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/matter-app/reviews"><strong>Matter</strong></a> (G2 rating: 4.7 out of 5 stars, 1,186 reviews): Built natively for Slack and Teams — this isn't a bolt-on integration. Recognition, rewards, and feedback all live inside the messaging environment by design.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/assembly-by-quantum-workplace/reviews"><strong>Assembly by Quantum Workplace</strong></a> (G2 rating: 4.8 out of 5 stars, 4,142 reviews): Shows up in reviews from HR administrators for its HRIS sync, which automates the onboarding/offboarding of users so the platform stays current without manual intervention.</li>
</ul><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Which of these have you actually used day-to-day inside Slack or Teams? Curious whether the integrations hold up when your messaging environment gets noisy.</p>

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);&quot;&gt;The distinction you draw between a basic notification and a fully native experience is the one I thing that matters. Recognition that makes people leave their workflow to complete it quietly dies off. Your closing point about noisy channels is real too; an integration that works in a quiet workspace can vanish in a busy one.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
