"manager and team lead role based user feedback"

4/5

What do you like best about Workstars?

the ability to:

- recognize my teams and other company members efforts and contributions

- review other managers/users feedback to members and comment on the same, e.g. give likes or verbal comments

- incentivize special efforts of the teams with perks and financial reward

- the support from the team in case of questions or issues was usually fast and effective Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workstars?

- seeing weekly or monthly summarize of my teams engagement would be helpful to keep track over incremental recognitions given; I currently export at the end of the month these summary values to excel to keep track of them; this would make the integration into team reporting or team goals easier

- similar is valid for the team network function, which only gives the current snapshot, however, it would be nice to see a slider implemented to slide on a weekly basis to see change in the teams structure.

- the ability to give perks outside of my team too, as I can currently only give perks to my direct reports, but not to members outside of my team *they can only receive financial rewards)

- with respect of 'ease of use', the main functionality to give recongition and see others is easy to use, however, functionalities like 'cross team' or 'financial' or not intuitive and I still struggle to understand the value they bring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workstars solving and how is that benefiting you?

Major benefit is that it is a mean for me to track recognition within my team in context of our teams "Gallup Action planning" as part of an overall engagement strategy to improve recognition.

It allows me to track team members, and the teams total engagements with respect to recognition.

As a manager it also allows me a small budget to allocate to team members as part of special recognition for outstanding work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
