"Excellent Way to Recognize Teammates"
5/5
What do you like best about Bonusly?

Bonusly makes it easy to recognize and appreciate coworkers for their contributions. The platform is simple to use, encourages a positive work culture, and the rewards system makes recognition more meaningful and engaging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bonusly?

There isn't much to dislike. If I had to mention one thing, it would be great to have an even wider variety of reward options and more ways to personalize the recognition experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great bonus & rewards tool for the entire team"
5/5
What do you like best about Bonusly?

It's very easy to use! The fact that everybody in the company can use it from top level management to new junior starters makes it very collaborative and helps us recognise and shout about people at all levels Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bonusly?

One possible downside to using Bonusly is that if you work for a fairly large company, each individual's pot needs to be sufficient so they have credits to last a full calendar month before they reset Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Such a wonderful motivator and way to show appreciation"
5/5
What do you like best about Bonusly?

Easy to use, tons of appropriate gif's to use to express emotion - much easier than trying to go out and get small gifts to show appreciation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bonusly?

Login can sometimes be finicky. The variation in gift card amounts of the retailers when cashing in Bonusly points - some start at 5 dollars and others 20 dollars. It would be nice if all gift cards started with at least 10 dollars Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great way to recognise colleagues and a great motivator for the team"
5/5
What do you like best about Bonusly?

Bonusly gives people a chance to recognise others in the company who may not be very visible outside of their teams - an example being our engineers. I also like that you need to specify at least one of our company values a person has exhibited when giving Bonusly points - it keeps our values at the forefront of everyone's minds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bonusly?

A way to pool unused points into a shared bucket to use if you use up all of your points would be great - I regularly run out of points as I have a big team and want to recognise them often, whereas others do not use all of their points. Alternatively, a way to transfer points to someone else to give.

Better analytics too - it only recognises you giving points per post, not per person within the post Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent tool for recognizing colleagues"
5/5
What do you like best about Bonusly?

The social feed feels more like a "work-friendly Instagram" than a corporate tool.

Features: The ability to add GIFs, images, and emojis makes the feed fun to read.

Add-on bonuses: Colleagues can "add on" to an existing recognition, which creates a compounding effect of appreciation for a specific project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bonusly?

The most common complaint from regular users is that they simply run out of points too quickly.

When you have a large team or a very collaborative week, you might run out of points by the 10th of the month.

Users feel "guilty" when they can't recognize a peer’s hard work because their "wallet" is empty, which can temporarily stall the momentum of a recognition culture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Bonusly?

They now offer items that you can buy directly without having to get a giftcard - it's cool! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bonusly?

There was a way to more easily see who I had recognized and who had recognized me. The information is still there, but it's a challgenge to find. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

4/5
What do you like best about Bonusly?

I like that Bonusly makes recognition easy, timely, and meaningful. It helps foster a culture of appreciation, boosts employee engagement, and encourages stronger collaboration across teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bonusly?

My main concern is that the value of Bonusly depends heavily on employee participation. If some teams engage more than others, recognition can be uneven. That said, when adopted consistently, it's a great tool for fostering appreciation and engagement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"team morale + extra money = win!"
5/5
What do you like best about Bonusly?

Being able to give Bonusly recognition to my team members has completely changed my mindset in the workplace. I am so much more aware of people making a positive impact and feel incentivized to make a post for them when I notice it. Plus it's so much fun posting those GIFs in the post! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bonusly?

One thing that is frustrating is the UI changes. Once you get used to something it can be hard to adapt to the new look/location of things when you're just trying to make a recognition post. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Employee Recognition"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Bonusly?

I like that it is extremely user friendly, even from an administrator standpoint. In addition, I love that it offers employees a benefit at no cost. Plus it recognizes employees that continually excel in their role whereas that recognition may have never gone noticed without Bonusly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bonusly?

The points increments. I wish they had more options, most gift cards are only increments of $5, $10, $25, $50, and $100. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great way to recognize peers"
5/5
What do you like best about Bonusly?

I love that we get to recognize people who make our work place great. It's wonderful to give rewards to peers every month in a way they can really appreciate. It helps us see what is going on in our workplace since we are all remote. And I really do enjoy the rewards--I use them constantly and it is a boost to get something tangible from your peers that you can enjoy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bonusly?

I run out of points too early each month without realizing there's something coming up I should save them for. :p Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
