Kudos® vs. Reward Gateway Employee Engagement Platform (SmartHub)

It would be very appropriate to use some of its functionalities when an employee has finished his work and has reported it correctly. In this case, we proceed to rate and mark your work on the platform and then reward him.

Well suited to organizations looking to take a strategic approach to employee recognition, or for organizations with a lot of existing software platforms that they are looking to simplify (since you can navigate to them through the RG platform). Less well suited to organizations looking to build lots of custom functionality into a site

• I think Kudos could use some UI enhancements as it can be a bit much info at one time
• I believe Kudos could probably do a better job guiding administrators in setting up their organization kudos page/system to maximize its appearance and layout

• The SmartHub is a bit intimidating BUT end users don't really have to modify it unless they want to, I try not to and my account manager helps with changes.
• There are honestly no negatives, the platform is amazing

Generally, Kudos is super user friendly and anyone can use it even with little or no knowledge of computers. The user interface is fun, interesting with lots of emojis that can be customized to a user's emotions at a time. The redeeming of kudos and the various gifts and reward schemes all bring about lots of interest and fascination to working, especially when it's remote working.

The cost was much less and the value was far, far superior. They provided an all in one solution that the others could not. And their client service is incredible.

• It creates excitement and positive engagement within the staff creating a lively environment.
• It's easy to track the highest receivers and at the end of the year, these receivers are sieved and awarded accordingly.
