    Office Must Have!

    Date: Aug 26 2022
    Summary

    Great product! This has been clutch for us as we transitioned from office to work from home. Keep it up!

    Positive

    In the world of remote work, Kudoboard is perfect for birthdays, celebrating promotions, etc. Always puts a smile on the recipient’s face.

    Negative

    No cons that I can think of. More gifs or funny photos to choose from would be great.

    Easy way to recognize the team in today's world!

    Date: Nov 09 2022
    Summary

    Simple, easy to use product that allows recognition in today's digital world. Good investment for leadership.

    Positive

    Easy login via SAML and ability to customize the board. Pulling in GIFs make it a fun surprise especially for any team jokes, etc.

    Negative

    There can be a lot of Kudoboards flying around at once so people can ignore but overall this is a culture thing vs product feedback.

    Would like to see automation of boards based on dates plugged into the system.

    Kudoboard Brings Joy

    Date: May 12 2022
    Summary

    I love the ease of creating a Kudoboard and that can send to people for many reasons. I like how there is no limit to the number of individuals who can sign a Kudoboard and that can send a board to many people at once.

    Positive

    The different categories of picture you can pick from. I like how easy it is when a Kudoboard is sent from someone else to log in and post a message to the Kudoboard.

    Negative

    Some of the button functions like scheduling board delivery are not readily apparent of what intended for. Navigating when you create a Kudoboard is a little difficult. Also I would like to see more GIFs to pick from.

    Complimenting just got easier with WFH

    Date: Aug 16 2022
    Summary

    It was fun and a colorful way to express our wishes and gratitude online within a closed group. Loving it!

    Positive

    It is simple and easy to use, has great range of features for customizing the background and even to add gif/ pictures. Helps to preserve the memory for our loved ones. We have used it multiple times for farewell and birthday wishes especially during the pandemic when we could not meet and greet in person.

    Negative

    Very less entries per board (only 10).
    Mandatory sign up for adding message (to have an account to create a board makes sense but even to add message do we need to create an account?)

    Good product but could have more free features!

    Date: Nov 25 2022
    Summary

    Great for what it does! Again, could have more free features and more background to choose from, which are its main drawbacks.

    Positive

    Ease of use! also fun to use for either friends or coworkers. people don't need much of a tutorial to work the site.

    Negative

    Only 10 free signatures allowed - would be great if there could be 15-20 allowed for free.

    Kudoboard is fun

    Date: Aug 26 2022
    Summary

    I have enjoyed being able to send fun boards to coworkers to recognize their birthdays and anniversaries.

    Positive

    The site is very easy to use. It is a simple and fun way to recognize people. I like that you can add text, images, or simple GIFs. It is easy to set deadlines and invite others to join.

    Negative

    The search for GIFs returns a small number so it can require some creative searching at times.

    Date: Jul 11 2022
    Summary

    Good. I think that the best use cases for me and my team are for goodbyes. Otherwise I do not think that we would use them regularly.

    Positive

    I like that it’s easy for users to contribute. I can send private or public links out. People like the gifs.

    Negative

    Limitations and tiers of amounts of contribution. If I am paying for it it should be unlimited.

    Kudoboard Review

    Date: Oct 24 2022
    Summary

    I would recommend this product to others. It is a great way to celebrate someone's accomplishments and show them they are valued.

    Positive

    Ease of use, ability to customize how the board is sent and to whom it is sent. easy ability to add in Gifs and videos.

    Negative

    Sometimes it is hard to know everyone to send the board to since you may not know everyone they have interacted with. I also think it would be cool if there was a slack integration.

    Easy to use. Fun to find GIFs to use. Easy way to bring a smile to my teammates. It could not be easier to use and distribute.

    Positive

    Easy to send a meaningful and fun message and involve the whole team. Love that you can schedule the delivery so that you can make it and then not have to worry about going back in later to deliver it. The staff thinks these are so fun.

    Negative

    I have no complaints about this product. It offers a fun and easy way to recognize people.

    Helps Create a Better Work Environment

    Date: Nov 07 2022
    Summary

    Overall good experience except for the limitations on how many people can post. I use this product for team birthdays and congratulatory events.

    Positive

    The product is easy to use. It is straightforward for all team members to use, there is a good selection of GIFs to choose from.

    Negative

    Limit to number of people who can post without the premium version. I believe when I used to use it before there was no limit. So I started using it for that reason. Could use more background options.

    Great for Collaborative thank you cards

    Date: Apr 11 2022
    Summary

    It is very easy to use and the person receiving it feels appreciated too. Also, it does not look or feel half-hearted in the perspective of giving and receiving.

    Positive

    Some of the pros are that everyone can write in their own time, the delivery can be scheduled, and the use of gifs.

    Negative

    There are not much cons using Kudoboard, but if there is one con it is that it is expensive for a e-card.

    Great virtual card!

    Date: Sep 13 2022
    Summary

    Fantastic! I have created over 20 kudoboards, there is a reason I keep coming back! It is super easy to use and the interface is very intuitive.

    Positive

    I love the ease with which you can customize the Kudoboard and ask for contributions. You can simply copy the link and others can add GIFs, pictures or messages rapidly. The feature of programming a delivery time is fantastic as well and takes the stress out of planning.

    Negative

    Really, there is nothing I didn’t like about it! I do wish that we could have 20 contributors on the free version or a corporate, or team annual fee would be amazing.

    Great for Company Birthdays!

    Date: Dec 13 2022
    Summary

    I love Kudoboard. I had never used it until this year, and seeing how user-friendly it is, and how people in my department responded so well to using it (and enjoyed receiving a board on their own birthday!), we decided it was well worth it to get the annual subscription.

    Positive

    Kudoboard has provided the easiest way to wish everyone in our department of 30 people a Happy Birthday! Gone are the days of hunting everyone down to sign a paper card. With so many now working remotely, this is hands-down the best!

    Negative

    Not Kudoboard's fault, but my company has blocked the images/gifs being used. I'm working on getting that fixed, but I have had to add a personal note to each recipient to open their board on a device not on the company VPN.

    Date: Dec 13 2022
    Summary

    I use it a lot for Thank Yous and Birthday Greetings.

    Positive

    It's very user friendly and customizable to the recipient's personality.

    Negative

    I am a free Trial user - so my items are limited to 10 comments which I really do not have complaints. Other than that, there's none that I can think of for right now.
