    Awesome

    Date: Sep 18 2024
    Summary

    I love it and we use it every time we have an occasion at work (farewells, giving birth, getting married, travelling etc.)

    Positive

    I like the idea and the whole thing..digital, adjustable background depending on the reason for the card, GIFs (add your own or search), how the creator of a card can adjust the arrangement, etc.

    Negative

    Price is a bit too much for the lowest number of people. Maybe introduce a cheaper version for up to 10 ppl?
    Plus needs more backgrounds for each option or the ability to upload our own background that would be great.

    Easy Peasy Collaboration

    Date: Sep 18 2024
    Summary

    Great platform that I haven't seen before, easy to use and automate, easy to collab with other teams and easy to share with the people that are being celebrated!

    Positive

    I love that you are able to schedule the boards from sending it to people to fill it out, to sharing it with the person thats being celebrated.

    Negative

    I wish there was a way to automate the dates when to send the boards, vs doing it manually.

    Having more variety for the board themes.

    Best e-Card Application - Useful for all Holidays and Events

    Date: Dec 05 2024
    Summary

    I come back to Kudoboard for everything work-related: a retirement, a layoff, a coworker's birthday, etc. It's the first place I go to when my virtual team is saying goodbye, congratulations, etc. to others in the workplace.

    Positive

    Everything about Kudoboard is easy - setup, sharing, adding gifts (money), reviewing/modifying and sending. I like how you can customize the layout on the fly by grabbing and moving content around. It's also fun to be able to upload your own images/gifs. You can set the background and choose different animations, such as hearts falling down the screen. You can share through the application, or copy/paste the link and send to others. There are different pricing plans, depending on the number of signees you're expecting. You can always upgrade if you need more people to sign.

    Negative

    The only thing I could say is the lack of backgrounds/animations. I chose a board for saying Farewell. The one option provided falling hearts. That wasn't appropriate for a coworker leaving. I didn't find anything else suitable, so I just removed it altogether.

    Positive

    Summary

    Kudoboard is a great site & offers great features. I've found it to be very user-friendly. All in all, love it!

    Positive

    I've used Kudoboard a handful of times now to get birthday greetings out to executives I support. I love how it brings all the greetings & love from fellow colleagues into one surprise virtual greeting card. I love the choices of GIF's, the themes to choose from, all of the things. I've found the site to be very user-friendly. All in all, loving it.

    Negative

    I liked it better when I was able to send them for free, or at least less than the $7 or whatever the charge is now. Lol.

    Celebrating our most valuable assets!

    Date: Mar 12 2024
    Summary

    We have explored other ways every year to celebrate our individuals on their anniversaries and welcome our incoming new associates. Each time we keep coming back to Kudoboard is our best solution.

    Positive

    This has been a huge morale booster post-Covid as it allows our teams to still celebrate anniversaries of their co-workers and often friends. The once office celebrations are now done online and in a more memorable way where associates have printed them off or gone back to and referenced at another time.

    Negative

    It would be great to have the ability to load in our entire associate staff and their anniversary dates. From there have it auto send an email to all staff members whose anniversary it isn't seven days prior encouraging them to post a message / gif on that individual's page.

    Kudoboard for everyone

    Date: Apr 01 2024
    Summary

    Overall, the ease of using Kudoboard makes it enjoyable for everyone.
    will recommend this to other people.

    Positive

    Kudoboard is a platform that has been an excellent way to express our appreciation for our colleagues, our team is spread out to different countries so having one channel for everyone to collaborate is really nice. we can also customize it to represent the likings of the person who will receive the board.

    Negative

    Sometime i forgot to set when the board will be delivered, I hope there will be a feature in the future to have this as an required field of at least a prompt so that we won't forget.

    Date: Dec 26 2024
    Summary

    i love being able to use Kudoboard as an accessible way to celebrate and share wins with a global workforce. I think there's an opportunity to venture into the video collection versions of these too, maybe an integration or collaboration with Canva to be able to differently edit, etc.

    Positive

    Easy to setup and archive the boards when using or after i had completed, liked the ability to drag posts around

    Negative

    i don't love the interface it feels very "cartoonish" or "cliparty" and I would love to see a more modernized design.
