Awardco vs. BRAVO!

Awardco is a very well priced solution that allows for recognition, interactions and more. I think it’s well suited for small to mid sized companies who want to honour and recognize their coworkers but not put tons of bloat into a software to do so. It may be less appropriate if your company has employees in multiple countries or is over 200 people.

Based on my experience, I have found BRAVO! to be a great tool for employee recognition in a variety of scenarios. BRAVO!'s flexibility in allowing team members to send GIFs and animations can create a fun and lively atmosphere in the workplace.

• Easy to use point system for understanding how much you have to spend on different items.
• Easy to use inventory system so you can explore different items and products that fit within your point values.

• Increases employee engagement
• Connects remote employees and those without department teams to stay engaged and connected
• Enables the use of hashtags tied to company values to reinforce core values of the organization

• 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

• BRAVO! points should be increased
• Rewards shop filters can be improved
• More custom rewards options should be added

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

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.

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

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

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.

Bonusly is also a recognition platform. On the other hand, bravo is more pocket friendly and has many more features than Bonusly.

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

• 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.

• An engaging platform that prioritizes people and recognizes teamwork
• Helped to maintain and develop a fantastic culture
