    Fantastic Idea

    Date: Dec 19 2022
    Summary

    A great platform with great features and much better than sending physical cards when staff are remote.

    Kudoboard Review

    Date: Jun 10 2022
    Summary

    I discovered Kudoboard during the pandemic about 2 years ago, It has been an excellent way to still celebrate people during challenging times.

    Positive

    I love this product. I have used it for retirement congratulations, birthdays, and baby congratulations for personal use and at work. It's an excellent way to allow people from all over to contribute.

    Negative

    Maybe a few more designs would be great, I see that a few have been added, but even more options would be great.

    I don't need to look for any other tool

    Date: Sep 12 2022
    Summary

    I'm going to use Kudoboard for every foreseeable message board, because it's never failed us. And I will keep recommending it to colleagues and friends, as I've done in the past.

    Positive

    What I love about Kudoboard is that it's extremely simple and quick, without tedious steps but still easy to customize to make unique every time. It takes 5 minutes to set up and share a new board. Great UX.

    Negative

    I can't really say I have any problems with the product. It does its job without getting in the way.

    Best Customer Service Ever!!!

    Date: May 26 2022
    Summary

    I am in the customer service industry and deal with issues daily. The team from Kudoboard was one of the best I have ever experienced. I wish I could hire them to support my business.

    I am a forever customer and advocate after the service and support they provided!

    Positive

    I subscribed to a higher-priced plan that I did not need. When I inquired and asked for help, the team followed up with a recommendation and helped me with the solution.

    Negative

    I selected a $99 Memorial Board. I did not realize I could have selected a lower-priced option that would satisfy my project.

    Kudoboard for teams

    Updated: Aug 01 2022
    Summary

    This is a great way to recognize birthdays for my team. Super easy to use and many features are free.

    Positive

    Really easy to use, lots of options. Love that it you buy boards and they do not have more signers that what is needed for a paid board that it does not charge you from your plan.

    Negative

    Only thing I wish it has was a way to notify you as you are approaching the limit for the free board. You don't want people to try and sign it and be given a message that they can not sign if it is full.

    Kudoboard Fan review

    Date: May 24 2022
    Summary

    Love Kudoboard and everyone that has received it has given such great feedback on it . Even when I create a board for someone seeing all the message , phots and GIFS just makes me smile and cheers me up.
    Such a great way of share greetings when you want to include others in the messages

    Positive

    Very easy to use and like one big card -Where people can upload pictures and gifs to it and share personal messages. As a board owner I can invite people to add to the board or copy link and send out to email addresses. I can set up the card to be delivered in on a certain day and time . It such fun thing to receive and may backgrounds to pick from ... I not tried it yet but something I will do is to down load it as poster/book.

    Negative

    not really experienced any cons to it yet so nothing to call out.

    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.

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

    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.

    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.

    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.
