    Great for recognition in a remote world

    Date: Sep 13 2022
    Summary

    Instead of passing the card around the office, Kudoboard is how we now celebrate the accomplishments and milestones for everyone on the team.

    Positive

    Kudoboards are super easy to create, and I absolutely love being able to pre-schedule delivery, so it arrives on time even if I'm out of the office.

    Negative

    Sometimes the .gif suggestions that come up are questionable, but I always manage to find something appropriate.

    Kudoboard has been a wonderful resource for our organization. It has provided an opportunity to connect and recognize people for their accomplishments, and is also utilized for special events (ie- birthday, retirement, get well).

    Positive

    I have always had a consistently good experience. I love that you are able to make personalized messages with ease and that it is pretty user friendly.

    Not able to customize backgrounds. It has limited backgrounds.

    Date: Jun 21 2022
    Summary

    Satisfied and will continue using! This has become my teams go-to for goodbye cards. It has never let me down!

    Positive

    A variety of card designs, gifs, and ease. It takes me only a minute or two to set up. Delivery is foolproof.

    Negative

    The fact that you have to pay to get more than just a few contributors but it’s still a low price.

    Love using this product. I believe my team enjoys it as well. I will continue to use Kudoboard to welcome new team members and to wish them happy birthday.

    Positive

    I love being able to create an interactive display for my whole team to contribute to! I also like that the recipient can post thank you's.

    Negative

    Not enough background, or fonts or titles. I'd also love to see other options for adding photos.

    Summary

    I really love it and keep using it and referring to friends. Easy way to get colleagues and friends to all post and include fun gifs.

    Positive

    Great way for colleagues to contribute and send a message to colleagues. Everyone can contribute. Notification when they open it.

    Negative

    No cons - great product. Sometimes I wish there were more backgrounds, or that we could change the background of the top banner.

    Really easy to use, I like the ability to schedule delivery. I like the option to copy the link to the board and send this on to the contributors.

    Positive

    Easy and fun the create. I like how you can schedule the sending of the item, and the ability to add your own images.

    Negative

    Nothing I can think of, perhaps having more than 10 items on the free board?!

    Kudoboard is a great way to Celebrate!

    Updated: Nov 16 2022
    Summary

    Our team members love being involved in celebrating each other via Kudoboard, when we all can't be together. Kudoboard is a terrific way to celebrate, family, friends and team members!

    Positive

    Kudoboard is easy to use and can involve lots of people near and far! I have recommended it to a friend who was at a loss during Covid how to celebrate an upcoming bridal shower when people weren't traveling. She loved the idea and used it!
    With people working remotely and hybrid schedules, it is a great way for our office to celebrate together.

    Negative

    There is nothing I didn't like about this product!

    Kudoboard is my Go To!

    Date: Dec 05 2022
    Summary

    I love Kudoboard and will continue using it with my remote team! It's user friendly and the designs are robust!

    Positive

    My team is now 100% remote! We used to pass birthday, anniversary, and other cards around in the office and sign but we can no longer do this. Kudoboard is my replacement for this and I use it for every team member's special day. The cards are easy to send, easy to collaborate one, and there are many design options. I love Kudoboard.

    Negative

    Would love to be able to send to more than 10 people on the 'free' option.

    Summary

    Great platform easy to use for the most part, like the capability to be able to set up early, and send at a later time.

    Positive

    A great tool to be able to send a shout out to coworkers on their special days or to simply have some acknowledgment!

    Negative

    Possibly some simplicity on the sending, or better saving features for past email addresses. Or an invite address book that stores all past emails that you can click on instead of typing up the email or names for them to come up.

    Date: Nov 08 2022
    Summary

    Great way to honor people for hard work!
    I love the great gifs that can be added to boost moral and create camaraderie.

    Positive

    You can apply funny Gifs.
    You can write funny stuff.
    Many people across the world and any organization can contribute.

    Negative

    A free board only allows 10 posts - which is fair but 12 posts would be ideal.

    I use Kudoboard to send my appreciation from my students to guest speakers. They love how easy it is to use and that they can add gifs. I like that I can add multiple recipients and can easily share a link to the Kudoboard so my students can add their messages.

    Positive

    Kudoboards are easy to collaborate on, send to multiple recipients and collaborators, and customize.

    East way to celebrate milestones virtually

    Date: Nov 18 2022
    Summary

    Overall Kudoboards have been our go to Virtual card system since we all began working from home. I highly recommend using this to build camaraderie and relationships in a work setting when not everyone is in the same location or the same office.

    Positive

    I like the variety of pictures that can be added to the Kudoboard by each participant. I appreciate that you can customize the background to fit the occasion (work anniversary, baby, wedding, birthday, etc).
    The free option is great for smaller work teams to use for recognition.

    Negative

    There is a cost to Kudoboards larger than 10 contributors. It would be nice if when you signed in with a particular company email, it could suggest using an established company premium plan if available.

    Great for Office Birthdays

    Date: Jun 01 2022
    Summary

    I was pleased to have found this as an option to send cards to co-workers. It is a struggle to find 'normal' activities for remote workers, and this has been a blessing. It is easier than sending around an actual card for people to sign!

    Positive

    Easy to use. Many options for backgrounds and images. Easy to personalize. Scheduling delivery of the Kudoboard is convenient and allows for one-time set up. Once you set up the Kudoboard and schedule delivery, the link goes out to whomever you enter in the email recipient list and your work is done! The website keeps a history of cards you have sent previously, which is a nice feature.

    Negative

    The backgrounds and gifs are cute and funny, but would prefer to have more professional, understated options as well.

    Date: Sep 22 2022
    Summary

    Overall, it works, and I've never needed support. The options, like the number of backgrounds, seem to grow every time I use Kudoboard.

    Positive

    Ease of use. Decent variety of background options. I like the ability to insert images, GIFs, video.

    Negative

    Kudoboard works for condolences too, but the name "Kudo" seems odd when sending to people.

    Kudoboard is a must have tool!!

    Date: Jul 25 2022
    Summary

    Overall, the best and easiest to use digital tool for collaborating on well wishes for any occasion. A great idea that provides a thoughtful and useful service. Thank you!

    Positive

    I love Kudoboard. I first learned about it about 5 or 6 years ago at an old job. When I got a new job, no one had heard about it and I introduced it to the team. Soon, it became the “go to” addition to any farewell or birthday celebration. And still is to this day.

    Negative

    During the early days of using it, there was no book option. I like the fact more options for hard copy items have been added.

    Excellent Resource

    Date: Jun 20 2022
    Summary

    My experience using Kudoboard has been positive. I used it for my Sister's 60th birthday during Covid, a coworkers baby shower, and I just used it for an Employee's retirement card. I am able to upgrade to allow for unlimited signatures or stick with the free option for smaller events. I'll continue using and suggesting Kudoboard to my friends and family and coworkers!

    Positive

    I love Kudoboard for both work-related and personal greeting cards. Its easy to use, lots of options (backgrounds, fonts, GIFs, etc) and makes for a really fun affordable card!

    Negative

    I can't think of a con....there are honestly no drawbacks to using this service that I have found!
