    Nectar is great if you are looking to add ways to recognize individuals, grow culture, and get people to connect. If you have a culture where people are already recognizing each other then Nectar might be redundant. However, if you want to add to or replace daily or monthly management recognition, then Nectar is a great place to start.

    It is definitely very well suited for cases like how my company uses it (which is a platform to celebrate colleagues and peers within the company, public or privately—depending on your choice). It feels good to write a review on someone I care about and want to celebrate. Maybe it would be less appropriate if the reviews were to be mandatorily public, but I don't know if that even exists.

    • In my experience, current prepaid cards for cash and his platform has the worst support and compatibility for Mexico establishments and commerce hance it is limited the use for Mexico.
    • I think there are too many steps to submit an award
    • In my opinion, we need to refresh and offer more products and services compatible to redeem credit earn on platform

    The system is straightforward to use. Only a few steps need to be completed to recognize someone for their hard work or contribution. However, a couple of areas need work: 1) A way to request points for recognition. Currently there is no way to do this 2) A way to easily send a recognition to anyone in the company.

    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 do not think there is any negative impact. We had a homegrown rewards management tool. It was useful in communicating with employees.
    • It was difficult to run reports in the past and we had to maintain accounts with different vendors. It was difficult as we could only work with a limited number of companies to obtain gift cards.
