Getting a “thank you” from a coworker in a public feed feels more authentic and less political than top-down praise. Because it’s low pressure, it comes across more like a game than a competition. The tangible point system also adds value and creates a fun sense of progress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When managers require a set number of “shout-outs” each week, recognition starts to feel performative and loses its meaning. The same thing happens when rewards demand an unrealistically high number of points, or when the catalog is packed with items that aren’t actually useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how quick and easy it is to give points to people and recognize them, and also how quickly I can receive recognition. The platform judges based on the task to help determine how much should be given or received. It's super simple to use because it was already integrated into my benefit account, which was linked with my work email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The reward system can sometimes feel too rigid or structured since you can't select a specific amount of applause points. It would be good if you could add a custom amount. I would like to see a wider range of reward values and more flexibility to adjust rewards based on the impact of contribution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s a quick, easy way to recognise fellow employees and encourage positive work habits. It’s also motivating to see that others value my contributions. Redemption is simple, and I use it often for digital gift cards, which are emailed to me within a few minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Searching for items can sometimes bring up completely unrelated results. I’ve noticed this most with gift cards, where I soemtimes end up having to browse through categories just to find the one I want.

For digital gift cards, it would be helpful to receive an image of the card that can be scanned, rather than only a code that has to be typed into the terminal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really enjoy giving my peers the recognition they deserve with Workhuman Social Recognition. It's great to be able to give a small gesture and some points that they can use towards rewards or gift cards. It's really a great program. I also enjoy receiving recognition for the people I have helped. It means a lot to me and makes me feel like I have made a bigger impact. It’s easy to use and has been beneficial for giving recognition for things that may sometimes be overlooked or not as 'big', and it's a great way for me to personally recognize someone who's been helping me.

I like Workhuman Social Recognition for its ability to make my team feel celebrated for their hard work and achievements. It offers a surprisingly large variety of rewards to choose from, which means people can actually select how they are rewarded instead of being stuck with something they don't like. This makes the reward feel valued. It's really easy and straightforward to nominate someone, and it makes my team excited about being recognized, making them feel truly valued. Additionally, it's very easy to set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The AI agent within Workhuman Social is really helpful. It supports us when writing a message by helping refine it and improve the overall wording. When I recognize someone, it automatically gives me a stat about their retention and what their mindset is after receiving it. It also makes it very easy to give rewards.

The award recommendations are sometimes not accurate. For example, even when someone has done exceptional work, it may suggest AMBER, even though the agent actually deserved CORAL. This is the only feature that I feel might need some improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can easily see when people are having anniversaries, and it’s been very simple to add people to my list as well. Overall, it makes it easy for me to keep track without any hassle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I didn’t like was that I didn’t already have people loaded into my account. I had to stop and think about who I interact with, and then add them one by one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how Workhuman Social Recognition promotes a culture of appreciation and employee engagement within our organization. It allows for real-time, peer-to-peer recognition, making appreciation visible, timely, and meaningful across the organization. This creates a culture where employees feel valued and acknowledged constantly. The social feed is great for creating a sense of community, keeping everyone informed about achievements. Rewards integration adds motivation by pairing recognition with meaningful rewards. The platform is easy to adopt on all devices, including laptops, phones, and tablets. I also value the data and insights it provides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

recognition fatigue from frequent posts on social feed, and customization limitations with a need for more flexibility in customizing recognitions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. What I like most about Workhuman is that it’s a social recognition platform that feels easy to adopt and inspiring in today’s social media–influenced world.

2. For an organization with global operations and employees, the Workhuman platform is a great initiative to bring everyone into one place for recognition and to celebrate together.

3. I also appreciate the flexibility to recognize anyone in the organization, which makes it more encouraging for competent individuals.

4. There is a wide variety of products to choose from when redeeming rewards.

5. Its many features—such as the awards feed, email reminders for work anniversaries, the approval process for rewards, the inclusion advisor, reward privacy settings, and various recognition metrics for people managers—are very advantageous and support the overall recognition process.

6. Best part is Workhuman is continuously evolving and adapting to latest technologies (AI, etc) and adding new features regularly. This is encouraging and develop a great platform for recognition and collaboration in the company Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would not say dislike, but some improvements can be made by adding more country-specific gift vouchers in the catalogue for redeeming rewards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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.

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.
