    Love Kudoboards

    Date: Dec 21 2022
    Summary

    I have used kudoboards since 2019 and they are such a wonderful way to bring people together to show appreciation for others, no matter where they are. It is simple and quick and love the image/gif options to include. They are always appreciated and so meaningful to those that receive them. It is a wonderful virtual option for appreciation of others!

    Positive

    Brings people together virtually to show appreciation for others, no matter where they are. It is simple and quick and love the image/gif options to include. Easy to use. do not need an account to include a message.

    Negative

    I guess if i had to think of something, more background options. There are lots, but there have been times i have not found just the right image for the background to thank someone for their work, a professional but fun thank you.

    Needs more nicer themes

    Date: Oct 21 2022
    Summary

    Overall, it's a nice platform to recognize a team member for any celebration. I would recommend. Simple and easy to navigate.

    Positive

    It's easy to set up. Huge selection of gifs and pictures, I like being able to print it as well. I like the notifications as well.

    Negative

    You cannot edit after a day of submitting post, you cannot email in bulk, I tend to copy the url and send an email out. Also, have an easier way to thank the team after receiving it. I think currently I would have to add in the emails manually. More fonts, more nicer themes :)

    Love it!

    Date: Jul 18 2022
    Summary

    My team loves receiving them, it's a great way to show just a little extra appreciation and they are fun to do! I love using them to help build morale.

    Positive

    I love using Kudos boards for my team in helping celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, and other big milestones- it's a great way to keep my team connected.

    Negative

    I wish there was a way to link it up to my calendar or to put in dates/events to set up boards to go out automatically- I am a busy and forgetful person so sometimes I am late to get boards sent out for my team to sign. It would be great if there was a reminder system or something.

    Kudoboard for Groups

    Date: Sep 27 2022
    Summary

    Will be a great tool if we can overcome the access issues
    Otherwise it has been useful in our "virtual" office.

    Positive

    The idea of this is great, just frustrating when individuals have to add an access code multiple times to get in.

    Negative

    Multiple people get a message requiring a code to access the Kudoboard, but after entering the code they still cannot access.
    This has happened many times over the past few months and is extremely frustrating for users.

    Date: Sep 23 2022
    Summary

    Over all great concept to send for a group birthdays and other events. Thoughtfully thought out process for companies who use the hybrid work method.

    Positive

    It’s really good to use if you want to use it for a small team group or a large group. I love the fact you can send the link through an email and people can add in their own amount and message.

    Negative

    I wish there was better backgrounds to pick from for birthdays!

    My go-to for any work cards!

    Date: May 31 2022
    Summary

    I LOVE Kudoboard - again it is always my go to for any cards for work (and for personal life). I always tell other folks about it and ensure that is the go to way that my work will share cards for co-workers leaving, retiring, birthdays and everything in between.

    Positive

    I like how the board looks, that there is an option for a free board, its cheap for a larger board and all of the options for adding to the board. I find it easy to use, share with people to add, and easy for the recipient to access and enjoy.

    Negative

    Obviously would love not to pay any money, but I appreciate that their is a free option and cheap ways to get premium boards! No other cons though.

    Negative

    Maybe more features in design to make it more customized.

    Easy & Fun to use

    Date: Jun 24 2022
    Summary

    Since using Kudoboard, I have increased the frequency of sending out cards based on the simplicity of creating a card quickly. There are so many occasions, background patterns etc that make it fun to customize. I know these special deliveries put big smiles on the recipients and I will continue to use Kudoboard because of that.

    Positive

    I love how simple it is to set up a Kudoboard. I like that it is easy to send cards for any occasion, especially now that we are all working virtually. It is really nice to acknowledge colleagues for birthdays, new jobs, etc. And I like that there is a an option to collect money for a gift card all in the same place! I like that I can schedule delivery of the card so I don't need to worry about forgetting to send.

    Negative

    Truthfully, I don't have a con! There hasn't been any downsides to using Kudoboard

    Positive

    Ease of use and ability to involve multiple people easily regardless of location. The ability to connect with people and provide special recognition.

    Great for Birthdays and Work Anniversaries

    Date: Apr 22 2022
    Summary

    Overall I enjoy using Kudoboard for celebrating events with coworkers. I try to find backgrounds, images, or gifs that relate to the person for whom the board is being made, and it is fun to see what others choose as well.

    Positive

    Kudoboard allows for easily creating a place for recognizing coworkers' special events, like birthdays and work anniversaries. You can share the link directly with colleagues or send an email invite for others to collaborate. Scheduling the board to be sent is simple. It is fun to see how others interact with each other through the gifs and images shared for these events.

    Negative

    I did not see a way to search for backgrounds. A number of categories exist, but no easy way to search like there is for the gifs or images for posts.

    Summary

    Extremely happy with the product - cost is the same as a card and much faster to use and more special.

    Positive

    I use this a lot for our work team (which is geographically spread out) to recognize people when they are leaving the company and/or Birthdays, etc. It is extremely easy for even non-tech savvy people to use. The ability to add pictures, gifs, memes, etc. make it look really nice and more special than a paper card.

    Negative

    Nothing - everything works really well. I'd highly recommend this product.

    Date: May 26 2022
    Summary

    I love using Kudoboard! It's efficient at work and staff really respond as it's easy. And then the recipient is surprised to see how many people care.

    Positive

    The ease of sending a link to staff to wish someone well, congratulations and even sympathy. I enjoy the ability to load GIFs into the "card". The option to print the card.

    Negative

    I did trial the business plan, but did not like the limit of up to 50 colleagues. My boards vary audience so it 's not always the same 50 people.
