What is Kudos?

Kudos® is a platform for creating and managing recognition and engagement programs. It simplifies administration, increases participation, and provides actionable insights. Recognition is peer-to-peer or manager-led, with flexible points, multimedia, and values. Gamified targets and prompts encourage frequent use, while automated celebrations highlight key events. Awards, Nominations, and Incentives offer structured ways to reward achievements, backed by point-bank budgeting. Announcements keep teams informed with targeting, tracking, and pinning options. Analytics monitor recognition activity, program ROI, and trends. Kudos currently supports a variety of languages including English, French, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Czech, Greek, Japanese, Polish, and Portuguese.

What is Bonusly?

More than 3,400 organizations run their recognition programs on Bonusly. The premise is simple: appreciation works best when it comes from peers, happens often, and carries something tangible behind it. Anyone can recognize anyone. Each shoutout attaches points redeemable across a global catalog — gift cards, curated gifts, charitable giving, and cash out — so employees pick rewards they actually want. Reward funding uses purchasing-power-parity pricing, keeping costs transparent and rewards equitable as distributed teams grow. For HR and people leaders, Bizy is the AI recognition sidekick that tracks participation, flags where engagement is thinning, and produces exportable reporting without manual work. Bonusly lives inside the tools teams already use — Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Google Workspace — and syncs with BambooHR, Namely, ADP, UKG Pro, and Workday. Web and mobile apps keep remote and deskless employees included. Free to get started.
