Great Features & Excellent Tool for Connecting
Date: Apr 27 2022SummaryMy experience with this product has been excellent since the start of COVID and I would highly recommend it to any organization looking to celebrate milestones. This is far more engaging than passing a card around the office and far more discreet.
Positive-The gift card feature helps raise funds even if colleagues aren't on site.
-The board UI is super simple to navigate and I seldom ever have questions
-Colleagues love getting to write heartfelt messages and even goof around with funny picturesNegative-Wish there were more background options

-Gift card feature charge is reasonable but seems a little high
-When printing the board into a book or poster, the animated pictures get a little pixelated -

Good product but can be improved
Date: Aug 01 2022SummaryProduct is good, it works, however it can surely be improved in many ways. There should be a way to replicate past boards as it is and then customize the necessary bits each time.
PositiveNice background designs and access to tonnes of gifs and pictures to choose from. Pre-defined email templates and text suggestions are also good.
NegativeSetting up email list isn't very convenient. Last used email ids don't always populate properly.

More background designs should be added to the picture library. -

Easy to Celebrate
Date: Dec 10 2022SummaryGreat site, I highly recommend it! The option for setting a date and time is a life saver. You can add gifs and jpegs which is fun when you're using for a team.
PositiveI have been using Kudoboard for two years now for work celebrations and its a huge hit. It was especially helpful during Covid when everyone was WFH it added some fun with our teams.
I was so happy to have found the site. I was getting bored with other sites I was using and prices kept going up. I like that they offer a membership you can share it across teams so it’s cost friendly.NegativeI wish they had more options- they have added DEI which is wonderful, and having most of the holidays is great.

Great workplace tool
Date: Oct 11 2022SummaryOur team loves using Kudoboard. It has helped us stay connected while working in a hybrid environment (where each member of the team doesn't necessarily work in the office with every other member of our team).
PositiveKudoboard has been a great tool to create happy birthday pages for our hybrid team! It allows our team to feel more connected and takes away the difficulty of passing around a birthday card for each event.
We also love that you can schedule the date/time for the page to be sent. It really helps to take away one more step in the process, and you know that the page will always be sent at the correct date/time (and no one will forget to send it!).NegativeOur team has more than 10 people on it at certain points during the year but the free version only allows 10 posts. This isn't a true con though, as there are options to upgrade your experience (which will allow for more posts).

Great for Virtual Teams
Date: May 13 2022SummaryI use this for anniversary milestones and when people retire/leave. This has been great for my semi-virtual teams, when historically I would have used a greeting card that everyone needed to be on-site to use. Highly recommend.
PositivePlanned delivery helps with hectic schedules and delivering by a deadline (ex: retirement date). GIFs are a hoot to use. Found some neat anniversary backgrounds to use.
NegativeThe backgrounds could use some more help. Maybe additional backgrounds? Or when a design has a graphic (like the anniversary template that shows the anniversary number) could the posts not be placed over graphic.

Easy to use! Love it!
Date: Oct 19 2022SummaryI've used this 5 times for work and it's easy to send to everyone. It looks clean and I like the option that I can push to send it out and it'll remind me or automatically does it. The 24-hour reminder for others to sign is great and encouraging.
PositiveLove the different style backgrounds, and fonts and can add in creativity with the post - gifs, pics, etc. I like that you can send the invite out directly and only people who have the link can sign. I love the feature when the person receives it and opens it too - gives me peace of mind that it was seen.
NegativeI had no cons or issues with using this. Very straightforward.

The virtual version of the birthday card passed around the office
Date: Aug 29 2022SummaryWe love this product for sending team birthday cards to our teammates who are located all over the globe. It helps foster that community feel in a virtual workplace.
PositiveI really enjoy the ability to add GIFs to add personality to the card. It makes them much more fun to read and allows for everyone's personality to shine through. It's also super easy to share a board with other contributors.
NegativeWhen you add tiles it covers up the background. Would be nice to upload your own background. - Not really cons, just new features I'd like to see them add.

Great for large groups!
Date: Jun 18 2022SummaryI have enjoyed creating Kudoboards for my colleagues that have left my school site. I began creating them during the pandemic because it was convenient since we were working from home. But I've continued using it this year even though we are back in person. It is a welcome change from passing around cards for people to sign. A Kudoboard allows people to write longer messages that wouldn't fit in a card.
PositiveI work at a school with a large staff. I have sent out Kudoboard links for Retirements and staff leaving our school because of a promotion. It is easy to copy the Kudoboard link and email it to a large group of people. Creating Kudoboards is much easier than passing around a card for signing. People can also add pictures to their message.
NegativeI have had to send multiple reminders/emails to have people sign the Kudoboard. It may be because not everyone is diligent about checking their email.

Great for Office celebrations + Acknowlegement
