Awardco vs. Reachdesk

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.

It is well suited for employees that are sending products, samples, gift cards, or swag to customers, prospects, or partners constantly. It helps speed up and streamline that process a considerable amount. This helps with brand recognition, onboarding new partners, and keeping customers happy! This has helped my company increase sales activity and increase business as well.

• 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.

• Clunky campaign in my experience
• Unintuitive interface, in my opinion
• Bad warehousing in my experience

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.

I have only used a few other award programs and selections have been extremely limited. There is nothing worse than receiving a catalog with 10-15 items to choose from and you don't really want any of the items. It is even worse when the company spends two to three times the cost on a gift that can be purchased elsewhere for much, much less. The employee has an idea how much something costs and as a result feels like the company didn't appreciate them by giving an inexpensive gift. Awardco gifts are dollar for dollar.

We selected Reachdesk because from a capability standpoint, they were very similar but Reachdesk had much better pricing.

• We are a company that thrives on competition & rewards. Awardco has helped us simplify that rewards process, and it's much easier for us as we create competition prizes.
• Our employees are much more engaged in the competitions because they know they will win points that can be used on just about anything.
• Since we've started using Awardco we have hit record numbers in sales in a month.

• Significantly increased pipeline and huge ROI
• Allowed us to scale ABM rapidly
