Achievers Reviews & Product Details

Achievers is embedded within our company, GM, and it's been working with us for more than 5 years. Over this time, it has helped us to promote a culture of recognizing the help we receive from others and encouraging people to do their best in their work, as we can let them know that their work is key to achieving the business results.

Something I don’t understand very well about Achievers is the way it’s permanently set up for fast and easy recognition of other people. That sounds good in theory, but I still really wonder why I can’t have a full window displaying the content of the recognition I want to create. I know this is intended to be easy to use and fast to do, but sometimes I really want to take the time to write something to a special friend or coworker in the company. So, why does it not have an option to actually make a full screen display for the writing of a recognition? Just as an option, but maintaining the main fast setup. This is something I dislike, to not have the option to take time and focus on writing a recognition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Achievers no doubt make employee recognition easy and employees can easily appreciate colleagues for their extraordinary work and provide spotlight. The overall platform is quite encouraging and the use of the platform is quite easy which makes recognition easier with or without the spotlight points. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like the redemption program completely because if you want to extract the Amazon gift card or other gift card it takes an extra 10-15% of your total amount. Also, merchandise options are limited and may or may not be useful to you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Achievers provides a incredibly seamless way to celebrate and acknowledge coworkers' efforts. Sending a quick shout-out to team members for their hard work and ongoing support is completely effortless. On top of that, the reward points system adds a great incentive, giving employees the freedom to trade points for gift cards and merchandise. It does a fantastic job of driving motivation, strengthening cross-team collaboration, and establishing a highly encouraging company culture. Ultimately, the system is intuitive and ensures employees feel truly valued. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My main frustration was that several of the marketplace rewards require an excessive amount of points, meaning the payout doesn't always match the effort put into earning them. The interface can also feel cluttered, and finding a specific gift card or item often requires unnecessary digging due to the lack of clean navigation. Additionally, notifications can become quite repetitive, and if the platform is overused, the recognition can start to feel forced rather than genuinely meaningful. A more streamlined search layout and better item valuations would vastly improve the overall experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Achievers is that it makes recognizing and appreciating colleagues easy. I can give a quick shout-out to team members for their hard work and support. I also like the reward points system, which allows employees to redeem points for gift cards and other rewards. It helps motivate employees, improves teamwork, and creates a positive work environment. Overall, Achievers is easy to use and makes employees feel valued and appreciated.

One thing I don’t like about Achievers is that some rewards require a lot of points, and the options available aren’t always worth the points you earn. The platform can also feel a bit cluttered at times, and it could be easier to find specific rewards without having to dig around. Notifications can become repetitive, and recognition can start to feel less meaningful when it happens too frequently. Overall, the platform is useful, but better navigation and more worthwhile reward options would make the experience stronger. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how Achievers makes employee recognition simple, meaningful, and engaging. It promotes peer-to-peer appreciation, rewards employees for their contributions, and supports a positive workplace culture. Being able to tie recognition to tangible rewards also helps employees feel valued and motivated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One potential drawback is that the platform can feel overwhelming at first, given the number of features and reward options available. The rewards marketplace may also have limited appeal depending on regional availability. In addition, some employees may place more value on genuine appreciation than on points-based recognition.

I like that Achievers makes it easy to recognize coworkers for their contributions and accomplishments. It provides a simple way to show appreciation, celebrate successes, and highlight the work people are doing across the organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is not much I dislike, but the rewards selection and redemption options could be improved. The most popular item being Amazon gift cards costing more than others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Achievers is our recognition platform. It's easy to use and managed. Our employees really like the ability to use the platform to recognize performance and provide small rewards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't think we've run into any issue with the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform makes peer-to-peer recognition simple and immediate. I like that I can send a meaningful "thank you" tied to company values in just a few clicks, and the recipient gets points they can actually redeem for rewards they care about. The reward catalog is broad (gift cards, merchandise, experiences), and the social newsfeed makes recognition visible across the team, which reinforces a positive culture. The mobile app and Slack/Teams integrations also make it easy to recognise colleagues without breaking workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The user interface can feel a bit cluttered at times, and navigating the reward catalog could be smoother — search and filtering aren't always intuitive. Points redemption sometimes has delays, and certain rewards show as available but are out of stock at checkout. Reporting and analytics for admins are useful but could offer more customisation. Occasional notification overload (emails for every recognition) is another small annoyance, though it is configurable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the fact that I am able to recognize people for their collaborations and that everyone in the organization is able to view and Boost the recognition. This allows people to not only receive points for different products, but it also allows people from other departments to see the positive work that each individual contributes to ensure the organization runs smoothly.

This may be something with my organization specifically, but I hate that I am only about to recognize two people each month, so I am not able to boost other recognitions. I wish there was Recognition pool and a Boost pool of points to pull from. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how Achievers allows managers to boost a recognition, giving you points that can be exchanged for actual things like computers, headphones, or gift cards. It's like getting another form of financial recognition outside of your salary. It makes me want to do my job better. Also, the initial setup was pretty good and pretty easy, making it smooth for everyone to get onboarded and recognized in their new roles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I feel like sometimes the notification doesn't remind you when, for example, someone else is having their birthday or something like that. So I feel like that could be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
