Great tool for celebrating the little things that make us humans **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Burn O. | VP of Training, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 15, 2022 **What do you like best about Kudoboard?** Kudoboard is very easy to use and intuitively user-friendly. **What do you dislike about Kudoboard?** No real downsides. I wish there was a way to automate a reminder mechanism using a batch upload of birthdays and anniversaries **What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?** Because we are such a disparate team across different locations, Kudoboard is a great connector to keep us all connected and celebrate life's little wins ### 2. Super fun and collaborative. It is the thought that truly counts :) **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Emily C. | Marketing Intern, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 01, 2022 **What do you like best about Kudoboard?** Kudoboard is such a fun collaborative experience to spread joy around the office **What do you dislike about Kudoboard?** I feel there are no flaws, especially the free version. Maybe try expanding on the gifs or designs a tad more to be more neutral. **Recommendations to others considering Kudoboard:** The free version is so easy to use and you get a reasonable amount of access to things.. just try it out! **What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?** We have remote workers, so in the event that someone needs a little more recognition and a keepsake, we use kudoboard. It's fun to see these things in your inbox and boosts morale. ### 3. Kudoboard is a good way to help team celebrate birthdays and milestones **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Darya C. | Director, Language Services, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 27, 2022 **What do you like best about Kudoboard?** It's great for small teams - free up to 10 posts! **What do you dislike about Kudoboard?** Limited backgrounds and GIFs are not often internationally themed, so not as good for international teams. Cost - options of under 10 posts for free and then 10-100 at cost, there should be a middle option of, say 10 to 50 at a lower price. Otherwise, you're paying a premium for slightly over a dozen posts, for example. **What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?** Ability to celebrate birthdays and milestones within a global virtual team. ### 4. Kudos for Kudoboard **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Mary W. | P, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 31, 2022 **What do you like best about Kudoboard?** It is very easy to start a new kudoboard. I really like the ability to add pictures that you have available and videos from YouTube. I also love the different backgrounds. **What do you dislike about Kudoboard?** Obviously, I don't like having to pay to have a board with more than 10 posts, but it is pretty darn cheap. If I were to buy a card for my colleague, it would cost that much and then I have to follow where that card goes for signatures- and what a pain all that is and no ability to add pictures or video! Sometimes the background images are so large you can't really see them once people post... **Recommendations to others considering Kudoboard:** Be creative when you use this- most people love to be told they are doing a great job- and this can be used for so many more celebrations! **What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?** Kudoboards help keep us in touch with everyone while we work virtually- we are able to wish our colleagues happy birthday or farewell or any other message. ### 5.

Efficient and Fun for Corporate Celebrations **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Lidia S. | Administrative Support Assistant, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 10, 2022 **What do you like best about Kudoboard?** The best thing about the Kudoboard is that it is such an efficient way to celebrate coworkers. It is simple, requires minimal initial effort, and makes participating very easy for the technologically challenged. **What do you dislike about Kudoboard?** Unfortunately, the cost is an issue for me. It's unfortunate that the cost is in US dollars and the cost truly adds up when you work on a large team with several birthdays, retirements and celebrations. I wish there was an in-between rate for signatures of 25 or so versus the jump from 10 being free to 100 being eight dollars USD. **Recommendations to others considering Kudoboard:** My only recommendation is to be prepared to spend a little more money when creating Kudoboard's, but ultimately the trade-off is worth it. **What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?** Kudoboard's most significant success is being able to save you time. As an administrator, time is integral to performing my job, and I can certainly appreciate this platform for solving my issue of not having enough hours in the day. ### 24. Love using Kudoboard for almost any occasion at work! **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nasya H. | Associate Project Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 28, 2022 **What do you like best about Kudoboard?** So many options for birthdays, welcomes, promotions, even farewells and "get better's"! Much more fun than plain white "group cards" and super easy to use. **What do you dislike about Kudoboard?** I wish there were either more price options based on the number of posts (1-10, 11-30, etc), or a bit more signatures allowed for the free boards. Most times I only need up to 20-25 spaces but still need to pay the same price as I would for 100. **What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?** Being able to schedule a delivery in advance allows for my team to sign at their best convenience up until the delivery time and minimally interferes with work as I do not need to worry about manually delivering or sending reminders. Also promotes a positive, fun work culture ### 25. Excellent **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Environmental Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 20, 2022 **What do you like best about Kudoboard?** We've mostly used Kudoboard for recognition and farewell cards for staff. We love it - it's visually appealing, great interface, easy to administer and contribute, love the follow up and delivery options and all the settings and options and graphics. **What do you dislike about Kudoboard?** It'd be good if the gift card could be available in other denominations, not just USD. Everything else about Kudoboard is excellent - it's so easy to use and so visually appealing. **What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?** Recognition and farewelling team members in different states, virtually. ### 26.

I can create a kudoboard in 3 minutes. **What do you dislike about Kudoboard?** The only downside is that I think there could be more gifs or more funny gifs to select. I don't have time to pull gifs from other sources. **What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?** Virtual celebrations and making each employee feel valued, like part of the team. ### 28. Kudoboards are great! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Health, Wellness and Fitness | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 06, 2022 **What do you like best about Kudoboard?** I like that I can easily obtain messages from multiple people to send wishes to team members.

For example, the same birthday ones can get overused. **What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?** We really did not have a way to consistently recognize birthdays outside of the traditional signing a card. Not everyone wants to create their own video message. Engagement teams can efficiently reach employees quickly. ### 30. Fun and Personal Touch **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 13, 2022 **What do you like best about Kudoboard?** Love the ability to add gifs!

I live that one can insert photos and GIFs to make the messages even more colourful. **What do you dislike about Kudoboard?** Well, the free version is only limited to 10 people hence many people can not write at once unless they subscribe to the premium versions that allows many people. **Recommendations to others considering Kudoboard:** It is a great platform to use. **What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?** As an HR practitioner, when staff leave the organization, there is the need to have staff share memorable moments with staff that can be shared during the staff farewell party, the kudoboard has been instrumental in my department. ### 32. easy to use, great for group goodbyes/birthdays/etc **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Andrea K. | Senior Video Producer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 24, 2022 **What do you like best about Kudoboard?** free up to a certain number of people, easy to use and send around, display/presentation looks great **What do you dislike about Kudoboard?** doesnt save/remember past emails/contact info -- we have to write in fresh/new emails/contacts every time **What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?** allows multiple peopllel to sign a digital card seamlessly; instead of multiple emails going around -- its all in one place and you can save it and view it anytime you want ### 33.

(1 Kudoboard with up to 10 entries is free) It is so simple to set up and use, easy to share so others can contribute and ease to send as you can schedule delivery so you don't need to remember to go back in and send manually yourself! Also lots of choice on designs to personalise for the recipient and occasion. Also eco friendly - we started using Kudoboards as birthday cards while everyone was working from home during the pandemic, but I don't think we'll ever go back to paper cards now - Kuoboards are much more efficient and eco friendly. **What do you dislike about Kudoboard?** Max 10 entries free - could do with 15 or 20 entries free really, but I know this is available on the paid version. **Recommendations to others considering Kudoboard:** I would definitely recommend the use of Kudoboard for send group cards (e.g. for birthdays, leaving colleagues, other occasions). I am unsure what else Kudoboard could be used for. **What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?** Easy to send group birthday cards - simple to set up and use, easy to share so others can contribute and ease to send as you can schedule delivery so you don't need to remember to go back in and send manually yourself! More personalisation than a standard paper birthday card - choice of background, font and pictures or gifs to personalise for the recipient and occasion. More eco friendly - we started using Kudoboards as birthday cards while everyone was working from home during the pandemic, but I don't think we'll ever go back to paper cards now - Kuoboards are much more efficient and eco friendly. ### 37.

It is free if you have under 10 collaborators/posts - it works perfectly for our team of 8. You can invite collaborators via email or link, and you can also control when the board is delivered. It is very easy to use!! **What do you dislike about Kudoboard?** You select the background but sometimes the background is difficult to view once posts are on! I'm not sure the solution to this - but maybe if you scrolled the background could become more easily visible. **What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?** This is great for internal team engagement and appreciation! This could be used for external partners as well!! ### 38.

It's easy for older folks to use as well. ### 44.

It was a great way to show our appreciation in the office for members of our team who are virtual. **What do you dislike about Kudoboard?** The only downside I could think of is that you need to pay for a larger board if you'd like to have more than 10 posts.

Love Kudo **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Environmental Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 21, 2022 **What do you like best about Kudoboard?** I like that it is electronic. So everyone can sign the card on their own time and not have to wait for someone else to pass it along.

Such an easy and convenient service. **What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?** I am able to send cards to people who are not in the office and able to get people to sign the cards who do not come to the office.

Great for remote work! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Shay W. | Project Coordinator, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 18, 2021 **What do you like best about Kudoboard?** I love Kudoboard. Its even better than buying a hard copy card. I can have everyone on my team sign the card no matter of location. The gif and image prompts make the card fun rather than just a boring signature. **What do you dislike about Kudoboard?** No real downside to using Kudoboard. I believe it is worth the $5.99 for each card. If there were were an ad version to use it for free, I may consider it. **Recommendations to others considering Kudoboard:** It's worth the $5.99. I use this for work, but can see how this would be fun for family or clubs to use too. **What problems is Kudoboard solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are using Kudoboard to acknowledge celebrations with our team. It boosts company morale, which is really helpful in this difficult time. ## Kudoboard Discussions - [Is Kudoboard safe?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/is-kudoboard-safe) - 1 comment, 1 upvote - [Do you anticipate offering a board for signatures under 100?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/do-you-anticipate-offering-a-board-for-signatures-under-100) - 1 comment, 1 upvote - [Is there a way to customize your own background / upload a photo for it?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/is-there-a-way-to-customize-your-own-background-upload-a-photo-for-it) - 2 comments, 1 upvote - [What is the best way to print a kudoboard into a book?
