"Great recognition tool"

5/5

What do you like best about Workhuman Social Recognition?

The simplicity and ease of being able to recognise a colleague and the ability to promote a culture of inclusivity within my organisation is fantastic. The simple concept of being able to thank people that is then shared publicly is great for building a rewarding culture. The metrics generated make it easier to use and understand how the tool is being implemented by my team, and how far the reach goes into my organisation. The availability of the tool allows me to logon daily and easily integrate its use into my daily working life to see new rewards and thank yous, and allows me to connect with a wide variety of people in my organisation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workhuman Social Recognition?

I've not come across anything I don't like, as of yet. The system is well setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workhuman Social Recognition solving and how is that benefiting you?

It makes rewarding and recognition simplistic, by providing a forum in which people are encouraged to recognise and thank peers for good work and support. It promotes a culture where people feel empower to thank and reward others. It makes for an inclusive environment where people within the organisation feel valued.

"Being recognized for your hardwork goes a long way"

5/5

What do you like best about Workhuman Social Recognition?

Being recognized when you are working hard is amazing and goes a long way to prevent burnout Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workhuman Social Recognition?

As a Part-Time seasonal employee I feel that I only get part of the benefit and sometimes feel excluded from the other aspects of the platform that recognize full time employees, especially things like years of service. It would be great if seasonal workers could get their cumulative service time recognized despite working on and off. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workhuman Social Recognition solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being recognized for your hard work even though as a seasonal worker I don't feel like a "full member of the pack" so to speak. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Boosts Employee Morale, Minor Points Reduction"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Workhuman Social Recognition?

I like the new UI in Workhuman Social Recognition. I also appreciate recognizing people with points, which is something I value. Additionally, I like that they offer a variety of gift card options, including Amazon, Flipkart, and PVR, which makes redeeming rewards enjoyable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workhuman Social Recognition?

I don't like that the amount of points awarded for recognition has been reduced. Before, I could give awards that summed up to 1,260 points, but now the same level of awards only equals about a thousand points. This reduction has decreased the value of the gifts that people can receive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workhuman Social Recognition solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Workhuman Social Recognition to motivate my team by recognizing their efforts and awarding points they can use for gift cards, which encourages them to focus more on work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Engaging Platform with Great Rewards and Easy Colleague Recognition"

5/5

What do you like best about Workhuman Social Recognition?

The platform is great very engaging, there are many reward benefits to choose from. I love the fact that we can choose to appreciate our colleagues who work hard in the business and give them an incentive and to voice our opinions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workhuman Social Recognition?

There is nothing that I dislike about this platform. It is great that we have an app on google play store so we can download it and redeem our gift cards at any time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workhuman Social Recognition solving and how is that benefiting you?

It gives us a chance to award recognition to other colleagues but also to receive this too. It benefits the company overall as being rewarded incentives is an added benefit to continue to deliver excellent customer service at work and to help to add to the success of the business.

"Powerful Features That Boost Team Efficiency"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Workhuman Social Recognition?

One feature that has added significant value to my workflow is the intuitive drag‑and‑drop interface. I use it daily to organize tasks and restructure project timelines, and it consistently saves me several hours each week by removing the need for manual data adjustments.

Another aspect I rely on is the real‑time collaboration functionality. Being able to see updates from my team instantly—without needing to refresh or exchange multiple messages—has streamlined communication and reduced delays in decision‑making. An unexpected benefit has been the automated reminders and smart suggestions. At first, I didn’t think I needed them, but they’ve actually helped me catch overlooked items and stay more organized overall. These small prompts have noticeably improved how smoothly complex projects run. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workhuman Social Recognition?

One area that could be improved is the reporting module’s load time. When working with larger datasets, the reports often take several minutes to generate, which slows down analysis and interrupts the overall workflow. This delay makes it difficult to quickly validate data changes or compare results during fast‑paced project discussions.

Another challenge is the limited filtering options in the dashboard. For example, the current filters don’t allow for combining multiple custom fields, which forces me to export data and perform manual filtering outside the tool. This adds unnecessary steps and increases the chance of errors.

A potential improvement would be to introduce advanced filter logic (such as combining conditions with AND/OR operators) and optimize background processing so reports refresh more quickly. These enhancements would significantly streamline day‑to‑day usage and reduce manual work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workhuman Social Recognition solving and how is that benefiting you?

Before using this product, we struggled with keeping our project documentation consistent and up to date. Different teams stored information in separate tools, which often led to duplicated work and outdated references. This created delays whenever we needed to track progress or prepare reports for stakeholders.

After implementing the software, we were able to consolidate everything into a single, structured workspace. We struggled with scattered information and manual follow‑ups, but now we can centralize updates in real time, which has resulted in faster decision‑making and fewer communication gaps across teams. For example, tasks that previously took an hour to locate and verify can now be accessed in minutes.

One of the biggest measurable benefits has been time savings: we estimate that each team member saves 2–3 hours per week because they no longer need to reconcile multiple versions of documents. Additionally, the improved visibility has reduced duplicate work by roughly 20%, since teams can see each other's updates immediately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Boosts Workplace Morale with Easy Setup"

4/5

What do you like best about Workhuman Social Recognition?

I really like using Bravos because it feels encouraging whenever I receive a Bravo. It's always exciting to get a bravo; it makes me feel like I'm doing a good job and being seen and valued in the workplace. It’s also really easy to get started and create an account on Workhuman Social Recognition. I love how simple it is to find colleagues on the platform by just searching their name. That's super helpful, especially since I can also see what area they work in and who their manager is, ensuring I send my Bravo to the right person. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workhuman Social Recognition?

I don't really like that we have to put a title on our bravo. I think we should just be able to say the good things and not really have to come up with a title because that's where I struggle the most. I also feel like there could be more categories for recognition. We don't really engage with the point system in Bravo, so we don't get anything when we receive a Bravo. It just looks good, on our behalf. So we don't really do anything with the point system, so that's not really useful to us. Or, like, the diamonds, the different gems, that's not really useful to us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workhuman Social Recognition solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Workhuman Social Recognition to encourage colleagues and recognize good work, which boosts morale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy, Meaningful Rewards with Plenty of Gift Options"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Workhuman Social Recognition?

The upside to using the program is the ease of being able to reward colleagues for their hard work and dedication. With the many different categories to choose a gift from, it shows how valued someone is to their company. New companies for gift cards and products are added throughout the year for more varieties to choose from. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workhuman Social Recognition?

The downside of using the program is the limit that is placed on how much a colleague receives. Some colleagues top out very quickly, not being able to amass any more points throughout the year. On top of that, some of the gifts are very expensive and it would be hard to get that many points, especially with the points expiring after so long. Many companies may not give out this incentive daily with some allowing management to make changes to how much a recipient can receive based on their definition of being qualified for that amount. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workhuman Social Recognition solving and how is that benefiting you?

Can't think of anything at the moment Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Employee Recognition with Guided Celebrations"

4/5

What do you like best about Workhuman Social Recognition?

I use Workhuman Social Recognition for internal employee recognition. I like the questionnaire before logging a recognition that helps guide me on how much celebration to give my colleague. It allows me to categorize the effort involved in the achievement and determines the size of the reward based on the impact. This feature makes identifying the size of the reward easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workhuman Social Recognition?

I find it distracting when I'm encouraged to share a reward story like what I purchased with my recognition points, and these stories are shared among other recognition feedback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workhuman Social Recognition solving and how is that benefiting you?

Workhuman Social Recognition provides an easy way to congratulate colleagues and celebrate wins. The questionnaire guides me in identifying the effort and impact, helping determine the recognition size, making it easy to choose the reward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Recognition, Highly Recommended"

5/5

What do you like best about Workhuman Social Recognition?

I find Workhuman Social Recognition to be very user-friendly, which I appreciate a lot. It offers a wide range of options for recognizing other employees’ hard work or accomplishments, including special occasions like birthdays and anniversaries. What stands out is the variety of ways to redeem the points earned from recognition. There are different categories available that break down actions simply, making it easy to select exactly what I want to recognize someone for. The ease of use is further reinforced by how simple it was to register. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workhuman Social Recognition?

What problems is Workhuman Social Recognition solving and how is that benefiting you?

"The system Makes Colleague Recognition and Appreciation easy"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Workhuman Social Recognition?

It makes it easy to recognise and thank colleagues at work for their hard work, especially when it might otherwise go unnoticed or unappreciated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workhuman Social Recognition?

This isn’t really a fault with the system itself, but as someone who has used it only infrequently in the past, I find it difficult to navigate and even to locate in the first place. I also don’t fully understand the difference between the two text boxes that need to be filled in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workhuman Social Recognition solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps colleagues feel valued and appreciated after an event has taken place. It’s also useful because some colleagues don’t always realise what a great job they’re doing day to day, and this is a good way to recognise that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
