    Date: Jan 31 2023
    Summary

    We always use it for birthdays and celebrations and it's easy to share it with other teams and send it to the interested people.

    Easy collaborative digital cards

    Date: Sep 18 2023
    Summary

    In this hybrid work age, it's important to find ways to stay connected. We use Kudoboards in lieu of signed cards at the office and it's a great way for everyone to participate and connect with each other.

    Positive

    Fun gifs and photos to add to the messages, easy set up and scheduling, easy to share with others, competitive pricing to physical cards but way easier to get everyone to sign this one.

    Negative

    I don't have anything to add to the cons section right now.

    Love Kudoboard to Connect Remote Employees

    Date: Sep 08 2023
    Summary

    We use Kudoboard to celebrate our employees' birthdays. We have employees nationwide and most are working remotely so this is a way for everyone to wish someone a happy birthday or celebrate an accomplishment, new baby or anything else we might want to acknowledge. The system is very easy to use for both the creators and the contributors. And there are great GIF's to add to the messages to make them more fun.

    GIF's are great but keep adding new ones. More backgrounds would be great too. It would be nice to be able to schedule a deadline and then a separate delivery time for the recipient.

    Great for the workplace!

    Date: Jul 06 2023
    Summary

    Good. It's a great product to use in the workplace in place of the super large cards that had to be physically circulated around the office and excluded employees at other sites.

    Positive

    I like that it's super easy to set up, our workforce can access it from all sites and locations and we can customise our additions with gifs, images and memes.

    Negative

    I'd like to be able to customise the board more. Change the header colour as well as the background to suit the recipient. I'd also like more diverse backgrounds to suit different hemispheres and cultures, not just US.

    Summary

    Highly recommend this product. Our team uses it to send digital birthday notes. The option of being able to print out the Kudoboard is great!

    Positive

    Great Use for Team Appreciation

    Updated: Aug 10 2023
    Summary

    Overall kudoboard is fantastic. The team loves using kudoboard and we even have our other companies using it as well. It serves the purpose of company entertainment, achievement, and kindness.

    Positive

    Kudoboard is great for teams that enjoy company culture. It is a nice way to allow team members to share notes or messages for special occasions that just add a little more to a persons day. It unites the team!

    Negative

    I would say the background choices could use a little bit of an upgrade. I do create mine as customs, but it would be nice to not have to create them and have some decent celebration choices.

    Very easy and efficient

    Updated: Feb 16 2023
    Summary

    Overall, I have no major complaints and would definitely recommend Kudoboard. It gets the job done with minimal effort required which makes life much easier.

    Positive

    I really like Kudoboard as it is very easy to set up a Kudoboard, it is very straight forward and also very easy to distribute. I use it at work for staff birthdays. I really appreciate them.

    Negative

    The only aspect I don't like is that the free board has a maximum number of people who can sign it, but recently I have not been using Kudoboard for big groups of people so have not been affected directly thankfully.

    Easy way to send greetings and get the whole team to collaborate. Like that it remembers my contacts so I don't have to ask them each time.

    Negative

    Kudoboard Review

    Date: Apr 07 2023
    Summary

    I'm very happy with the Kudoboard experience. I have had the opportunity to create and send several Kudoboards. It has been very well received by the team. I appreciate the ease of engagement made possible by the Kudoboard system.

    Positive

    The ease of collaboration is excellent. Since working remotely it has been difficult to find a system that works as well as the Kudoboard to bring a team together for celebrations, support and engagement.
    The ability for the senders to receive a note from the recipient is fantastic! it makes it easy to send a note of thanks. This feature is very much appreciated.

    Negative

    It would be a great to have the opportunity to customize the background. However, this would be an added feature that does not take away from how great the Kudoboard operates.
