Kudoboard Reviews

We'll continue to use Kudoboard in our company for sending cards due to its simplicity. The cards are always well received too.

We use Kudoboard now that our team all work virtually. It takes less than a minute to set up a new card; it emails the card our for you to those who you want to contribute; sends reminders to contributors with one click, and again just one click to have the card delivered to the recipient.

Main pro: so easy to use!

Only downside is that we are based in the UK, so have to pay a currency transaction fee. Nevermind.

Overall very satisfied with the digital greeting card - see my comments above under pros - very good solution as we are all moving toward more digital solutions.

We are a global team and with KUDO it is so easy to send greetings and wishes from around the globe to around the globe and everybody can participate easily and can submit individual memories, greetings, photos, videos etc. - it's so easy, also to deliver - we also pinned some print out in our office area.

No cons - just pros.
Would appreciate some more fancy background options.

I like using them and wish they would have more promo offers for users to continue using. An unlimited package would be ideal.

Very convenient and easy to use for all contributors. The platform looks very nice and users really like seeing all the other posts.

It is on the higher end compared to other websites that offers greetings.

Fantastic website.
Use it consistently at work.
Very nice idea to give kudos.
Love it at work. We use it for ever.

Love how easy it is to use.
Many backgrounds.
Confetti is a major plus.
Ease of using site.
Easy emails.

Limited to 10 posts on free version.
Limited backgrounds.

A very positive experience. We created 5 different cards for teachers to say thank you or if they were leaving. Extremely hard and time consuming to try to get parents to sign an actual card these days so perfect in a post pandemic world ;)

I love the fact you can choose a message and a background.
That you can send the link to all the other participants.
That people can add a photo and a message.
That you can schedule send.

Can't think of anything that is a con. Could maybe have the option to use own background but I'm just trying to fill space.

We have used them all year for staff birthdays and it’s worked well. We are able to send it on their birthday.

We use it at work instead of typical cards which are hard to pass around. Some of our staff work remotely and it’s easy to include them.

I wish we could add more people to post on the board even if it’s the free board.

I really enjoy using Kudoboard, and I recommend it to friends for their companies. I think it's really friendly and easy to use, I really like the scheduled delivery option - this makes sure everyone gets theirs on time without me needing to remember to send it!

The different themes and styles, it's not just for birthdays but can be used to celebrate other things too. It really encourages managers to think about celebrating the smaller wins as well as the larger ones and big anniversaries. Being able to link and include gifs is great for those who don't always know what to say.
So much easier than a physical card, and better for the environment too!!

Nothing that I can think of! It might be good to be able to re-arrange the board to put a picture of the recipient in the centre, but that might already be possible!

I love using this and will continue to do so. Always great responses from employees. Definitely a morale booster.

Kudoboard has allowed the staff to come together for special days and each one feels very appreciated from the generosity. Taking a moment out of your day to wish someone well really makes people feel loved and this has allowed staff to do so. Birthdays are wonderful, each and every employee loves receiving their Kudoboard!

Only up to 10 signers for free, but we have 12 employees. So it's not worth the fee for our business, so some people get left out on occasion to sign the card.

It's been great using Kudoboard. It adds an element of collaboration and celebration across distant offices that we were lacking. I like that there's a lot of variety and customization in what you can post.

It's easy to use and a fun way to celebrate virtually. It reliably sends the board just when schedule. I like that you can add your own content or search from a wide variety.

Some of the features for modifying the boards aren't where you'd expect them. It usually takes me a couple tries to find the "Schedule Delivery" option.

I like that you can add your own backdrop, but I wish there were some sort of parameters listed around size/quality of photo so it turns out better. Or the option to zoom in/out and drag/drop the photo around.

It's really easy to use and fun way to personalize greetings for people. It is used widely on our campus for various events!

I love that it is collaborative with folks who are not physically in the office. We can all contribute to birthday cards without having to sign them. Plus being able to.

I would like something in between the free feature and the $5.99 model that would be suitable for offices of 15-20 folks.

Overall very good and useful product. See pros and cons above. in summary - very easy to create and use greetings, attractive designs, love the "schedule send" feature. Cons are just that there could be a few more enhancements.

Easy to use! Quick and not a lot of clicks to make a message. Easy to share with a group via simple link. I've never done it, but I think there is a way to download and save, which would be a nice memento - maybe when it is sent it should automatically also send the recipient a pdf file of the card or something... Great that you can schedule sending.

Wish there was some way to customize backgrounds or that backgrounds changed more often. Wish the free version were just a bit more generous.

It is a great, fun, and easy way to spread joy within our company. Everyone has fun posting messages and even more receiving a Kudoboard.

Setting up: easy
Collaborating: easy
Connection with company's database (colleague's email): convenient
Alerts: convenient
Recent invite list: super convenient

Diversity of gifs, images, backgrounds: could be better
Reminder email 24 hours before scheduled delivery: limited (could be less e.g.: 8 hours, 1 hour).

I love using Kudoboard to set up boards to spread joy for special events, recognize hard work and I love how easy it is to share amongst the team, schedule delivery dates and much more!

Boards are so easy to create, and there are a range of ways to put your own flare to make it personable. Boards are easy to share and invite others to participate.

Log in can be a bit of a hiccup at times. But other than having to login over and over and verify my membership, I have no other concerns.

I found this during COVID and wish I'd had it before. We've always struggled with getting people to return a card when passed around the office or to have a card with enough room for everyone to sign. Kudoboard is PERFECT for large offices in that everyone can sign it easily (and even at once and after it's sent!), access it quickly (via email!), and even personalize it beyond a mere signature without using up all the space in a paper card. Plus, you can add fun memes, pictures, and videos! The backgrounds are easy to find and apply - and there are a lot of cute, occasion-appropriate styles from which to choose! This really is a wonderful platform and I am going to use it again and again for birthdays, retirements, congratulations, and anything else we may need. It's also great for family to do when we all live states (and even countries!) away!! A cousin is getting married next year and this is definitely on our list - it'll be a beautiful, inexpensive way for all of us to send our love together. :D I can't say enough positive things about Kudoboard!

- Easy to access
- Easy to use
- great backgrounds from which to choose
- able to upload pictures, memes, and videos to enhance the card
- able to get a multitude of people from many different places to all sign a card easily and efficiently
- scheduling the card to send at a certain time makes it easy to set up and forget about it
- Allowing posts after the card is sent is an awesome way to ensure everyone gets a chance to sign!

I truly can't think of many cons, but it might be nice for the creator to do the following:
- upload a personalized background
- see who made a post and forgot to sign it
However, there may be the ability to do so and I just haven't explored enough to see if I can!

Great tool for sending cards and recognizing life events in the current virtual environment we live in.

Great way to get team members to add their individual messages to e-greeting cards. Easy to use and can customize as needed.

It is sometimes a bit limiting with available animated images and card templates.

I have been using Kudoboard and will continue doing so. It's a great tool that enables anyone to create a simple but effective digital group board for a special occasion.

Easy to use, many useful settings, you sit back and watch the birthday boys and girls get their greetings.

Could offer more backgrounds. Suggestion: option to blur the background.

Overall I like it. It is a nice way to recognize people and I like the addition of adding a gift card which I have done for my employees in the past. It has a simple interface that is very easy to use; uncomplicated. Is it possible to add a single background sound/song (welcome to the myspace generation) that could play to set the mood/tone?

I really like the gif options. There are a lot of options. I also enjoy being able to schedule delivery.

I wish that we could schedule delivery on the half hour and not just the hour as an option. Also, I find that when I am just working off my laptop (versus attached to an external monitor) the screens are more difficult to maneuver when scheduling delivery; it cuts off the calendar option until I log back into an external monitor. I'm not sure if it is my settings or the system though so I'm noting it here. Would love some additional design options though for work anniversaries, welcomes and people leaving only because those seem to be the ones we use most.

Overall I feel like there could be cheaper ways to do this but it is convenient and everyone easily understands how to use it.

It's easy to create group greetings and I like the ability to add GIFs. Easier than going and buying a physical card for lots of people to sign.

It's expensive for what you actually get and could be a lot cheaper. No option to purchase in alternative currencies which leads to bank charges in the UK.

My overall experience with Kudoboard is great but, if the accessibility of outsiders to sign Kudoboard links is a possibility that would be the icing on the cake so to speak.

I love the ease of creating a Kudoboard with the settings options that are plentiful to choose from as a background as well as the functionality of the delivery of the Kudoboard to the receiver. I like the personal notes that are provided in the settings as well as being able to upload pictures to the add to the Kudoboard.

I do not like that sharing a Kudoboard link with outsiders to add or sign is not possible since, the Kudoboard access is only for the users on the account. If there is a way that the link can be shared with outsiders to sign it would be beneficial. Our company wants to have the ability to have others sign Kudoboards without the party being part of the account as a user.

We all love Kudoboard and highly recommend it to everyone!

Friendly user.... straightforward to navigate. Having Kudoboard during the pandemic was the best way to wish everyone on any occasion and location around the globe. It brought joy to everyone. We ALL love Kudoboard!

If they can bring the icon or make it more visible the date, delivery, and email of the person you're sending the greetings would really help.
