Awardco vs. Bonusly vs. Count.It

Awardco has something for everyone. I have employees in a variety of age groups and some want to travel, some want a tangible item, and others feel like they don't really need/want anything so they choose a gift card so they can use it how and when they choose. Awardco allows that flexibility. Also, if the individual isn't ready to make a selection right away, they can save their points to use at a later time. If an individual would like to select an item larger than their award amount, they are not able to add dollars to their personal account, which may cause some frustration to an individual.

Bonusly has provided us a formal space to post recognition. While face to face recognition still occurs, this is a place where staff can post publicly or privately, but a majority choose public. It has been incredibly popular since our implementation. Staff love the ability to earn time off through recognition. That customized redemption is our most popular reward.

If you are organizing a tech inclusive workout challenge this is your only option. All other methods require proprietary solutions that may exclude someone who doesn't have the tech or platform you are using

• Every employee has an account.
• There are multiple ways to use your points.
• All points are stored in one place & easy to find.

• Fosters a culture of appreciation for one another
• Allows for each staff to select reinforcers of meaning to them specifically
• Can help tomato sure celebratory dates aren’t forgotten (birthdays, work anniversaries)
• Increases employee engagement
• Connects distance employees and employees who don’t have a department team around them to remain engaged and connected to others
• Allows for specific hashtags that can be tied into company values, to reiterate core values of the organization.

• Track across multiple devices and platforms
• clearly provide rankings
• easy to connect to

• I would like the system to be able to send email notifications to more than the employee and the HR Manager. It would be great if we could include the manager and the GM as well. Now I just forward the message to the others.

Incentivized

• Moderation. The freedom to post anything for recognition can get out of hand depending on your tolerance/company culture. There are very little to no tools around better this.
• Bonusly has not done much in the way of adding features. Hard to call it a con but other similar platforms have extended into allowing more directed involvement from the organization. In other words: Bonusly is a little TOO hands-off in some ways.

Incentivized

• UX design could be slightly improved.
• More prompting

Excellent product, easy to implement and use, solid customer service, employees love it

It’s not super user friendly compared to other apps I have used in the past, and it also offers not as many partners. One feature that would improve it, would be connecting award bucks to a digital credit card. That way employees can spend it on what they want without having to get a visa gift card which is the current solution/ work around

Incentivized

Bonusly is easy to use and intuitive for anyone familiar with technology and using websites. There is a page where posts are made, and a page where rewards are redeemed. It is very straightforward.

Never an issue

I am giving a "middle of the road" rating of 5 because I don't have experience with Awardco support. I have never had to reach out to the support team for anything, so I don't have any substantial feedback in this particular area. The program is so easy to use, so I've never needed to contact the support team.

Incentivized

I never had any issues with support. It's especially nice to be able to add location-specific rewards.

We had a dedicated person and he went over everything we needed to know on how to operate the system. Lots of examples and test environment was used

Incentivized

It was very in depth and easy to understand. There was a dedicated person that was assigned to our account and that made it easier to move forward. The process was very easy to follow

Motivosity is hands down better. Easier for companies with employees in multiple countries, easier to spend the money you receive, easier to gift the money, easier to interact with and more user friendly. However, Motivosity is also more expensive and I find that cost is hard to swallow when you want to just invest the money into employees

Incentivized

the cost was [the] main factor for us. I think the platforms are very similar. Bonusly is one focused on just employee recognition which is great and concise. BlueBoard offers a lot more by way of experiences and gift-giving for recognition but on the pricier side.

Incentivized

They are all proprietary and only useful if someone you want to workout with has the same platform. As my friends and colleagues have all sorts of devices and platforms this hasn't been possible with those options. Count.It makes it possible.

No, it was a basic standard agreement with straightforward terms

This product was deployed across our entire organization from the start and replaced an old manual process

• When I set my annual budget, I know exactly how much my spend will be because I know how many individuals will receive recognition and what the price point is for that level of recognition. No surprises!
• Employee satisfaction soars with Awardco. I polled employees after a year and received excellent feedback.

Incentivized

• Employees put forth extra effort and take on additional responsibility.
• More creative ideas from employees to improve business processes and solve problems.

• Helps with community engagement
