There is never a good time to switch to a new system, but I also know that employees were eager for something new. Awardco has given us incredible power and flexibility with our recognition programs because of the millions of options to choose from, and the ability for employees to choose their own rewards has been a game changer. We know what we’re getting, we know we’re getting the best price, and our employees couldn’t be happier.

Soon after our implementation we created a financial recognition program through Awardco for managers and supervisors to recognize their employees for extra efforts. Now our managers and supervisors have their own budgeted amount to use at their discretion to award their employees at any time, and they don’t have to wait for approval to do so.

I’ve been using Awardco for our Monthly Wellness Challenges for over a year. Each month, I create a themed EARN program, and participants are entered into a points-based drawing. Awardco has helped me build consistent programming, schedule ahead, and never worry about delays. The reporting tools capture participation and top performers, offering insights that have truly transformed our Wellness Program. Even our most tech-challenged employees use the platform with ease. We've received nothing but positive feedback from employees who had been asking for more recognition.

Previously every manager hand-wrote a message to their employees every six months thanking them for their hard work, and it was all tied in with the bonus distribution. It was very high-touch, very labor intensive, and we had the process down to a science. We liked the connections that formed between managers and employees as a result of this program, but after COVID-19 most of our workforce went remote. Our semi-annual tradition wasn’t possible any longer, nor was it feasible.

One of our employees needed their virtual gift card ASAP, but it had somehow gotten lost when it was sent, says Storey. I worked with Awardco and they immediately resolved the issue and I contacted the employee with their gift card. I didn’t know this at the time, but later found out that this employee needed that gift card to purchase something important: ‘I needed this gift card to get an urn for my Mom who had recently passed away. Thank you so much for getting this to me so quickly!’ Without Awardco’s exemplary service, we may not have been able to help this employee in time, relates Storey. And that’s typical of the service we enjoy with Awardco, whether that’s surrounding gift cards or the awards we offer through the platform.
