Khorus vs. Workhuman

Khorus just seemed like a waste of time and money. I'm not sure what it's well suited for, but there wasn't a way to objectively measure your tracking of goals. The visual was nice, but all the goals were so subjective and really not helpful. It's also quite possible that I had the wrong approach.

Besides rewards management, Workhuman is also useful in managing employee relations. Managers have a written log of thankyou notes, which can be presented as evidence in cases of grievances. The tool has a good list of vendors for employees to choose a variety of gift cards. It is easy to run reports. The interface is not very user friendly and employees need to refer to their training notes to navigate through the system

• I honestly found Khorus to be good for keeping a log of my goals.
• The software itself was easy to navigate
• It wasn't super buggy

• Globoforce makes the process of rewarding employees who do a great job easy for managers and leaders internationally
• Globoforce helped me write kind electronic thank-you notes that came through to their inboxes in great, simple formats
• Globoforce was great in showing clear options on what exactly I could use the eGift Card for from doing a great job on certain projects

Incentivized

• It seems like a glorified spreadsheet at times with a cleaner interface.
• The objectivity of goal tracking was absent.
• I don't see that Khorus serves certain teams very well, such as a customer support team. Our goals don't change very often and the ones that we do have are very tedious to log.

Incentivized

• Their customer support could be improved.

The company has an in-house customer support team. They can be reached by email or phone. The response time is good and I do not have anything negative to say about them. The good thing is that the hours of operation are 24/7 so one can reach them anytime with questions about reward management.

I much prefer Asana to Khorus. It's not only good at tracking but also a task manager. You can see that you are heading towards your goal in an objective approach, assuming that you laid out your project accordingly. Additionally, we use 15Five to get that extra insight as a manager to ask our team how they are doing and if they reached their goals, what's getting in the way, ect.

I think this is a comparable recognition platform.

• We ended up leaving Khorus and now use 15Five & Asana.
• I think Khorus is a good idea but wasn't quite there in execution.
• The initial creation of my goals was a good starting point for accomplishing them. I had to hash out the longterm solutions I was hoping to accomplish.

Incentivized

• Globoforce helped me provide a faster way to send a meaningful thank you note to my colleagues via email as opposed to mailing it and expensing the shipping for each note
