    It was good overall. Easy to set up and easy to copy link and send to people so they can also contribute.

    When setting it up, people have stated that they did not realize it accepted donations though I set up the option.

    Easy to use & effective

    Date: Mar 14 2025
    Summary

    Kudoboard is perfect for all purposes for remote work companies! The option to add a gift card or collect contributions toward one is a nice touch.

    Kudoboard makes it easy to recognize my colleagues! It's quick enough that folks will still take time to post a kudo, and there's plenty of options for customization.

    Negative

    I wish there were even more options for the background!

    Easy way to send well wishes to colleagues

    Date: Jun 05 2025
    Summary

    Overall, a good resource to easily send well wishes, condolences, kudos, etc to colleagues. Especially helpful for entirely remote workplaces.

    Positive

    I like that it's easily shareable and easy to send to the recipient. It's not terribly expensive, which is good because I work for a small organization with limited funds for things like this.

    Negative

    I wish there was a middle option between the 20 / 50 post allowance

    Date: Feb 06 2025

    Date: Mar 11 2025
    Summary

    Love using this for company cards for employee announcements. The cost is on par with a physical card and less waste.

    Positive

    Super easy to set up and send out to the signers. Like that I can just copy a link to an email rather than entering every single email.

    Negative

    Would like more up to date designs. Be able to change fonts per user. It is nice to see others add their personality.

    Very good

    Date: Dec 23 2025
    Summary

    It is very convenient and easy to use for staff. However, not sure why the prices went up. I recently bought a pkg of 5 and it is more than 50$ CND. I will be looking at other options for staff.

    Positive

    This is very easy and convenient to use for staff. We use it for staff, and it is an easy way for everyone once to sign.

    Negative

    This is becoming expensive to almost 10$ per card CND, more than a physical card.

    Life Saver

    Updated: Feb 08 2025
    Summary

    I've used the Kudoboard many times and I definitely would recommend it to everyone. It has been used for personal and workforce.

    Positive

    When you may have forgotten and important date the Kudoboard is a lifesaver. The board covers every important date you may have along with great designs.

    Negative

    Sometimes it's a little difficult to access what you need. Instructions should be more clear.

    a MUST HAVE in the workplace

    Date: Oct 17 2025
    Summary

    Great way to get cards signed by many in the office - and fast!! It really helps streamline the process of everyone signing a goodbye card or a congrats card in the office. The old way took soooo long and this way is just magic.

    Positive

    Kudoboard replaces the greeting card in the office. It makes it easy for the admin to set up the board, and email it to everyone. You get notifications when people sign it and can track and add/edit it anytime you need to. This is a GENIUS invention and we use it a LOT at Medtronic. Thank you Kudoboard!

    Negative

    There are no cons!! There are no cons! There are NO CONS!
