### "The Confidence & Security of Anonymous Feedback"

September 24, 2024

5.0

Thanks to Wrenly, I've successfully brought up many grave issues with my organization, and in doing so brought it to the appropriate leaders' attention, leading to actual changes and resolutions

Pros

As someone anxious about confrontations and addressing leadership, but also passionate about pointing out issues and presenting solutions, Wrenly has been an excellent aid for me to broach topics from a place of comfort and security, that I might otherwise be too intimidated to immediately present directly.

Cons

Nothing really, I can't think of any way I would improve it.

### "Vori Health - Wrenly Review"

February 12, 2024

5.0

Pros

Wrenly is an excellent tool that greatly allows us to receive anonymous feedback from our team members so that we can get everyone's true thoughts and feelings on anything that is on their minds.

Cons

The settings & navigation of the settings can cause quite a bit of confusion. Sometimes it can be difficult to find certain things or remember where things are within all the options of the system

### "Easy and impactful way to celebrate someone!"

August 23, 2024

5.0

I really appreciated the nice graphic layout and options for color and customization. The boatf was quick to set up and I encountered no problems while using it. I will definitely be using wrenly again in the future. The recipient was moved to tears while reading everyones comments and he has shared he went back and reread the messages.

Pros

Wrenly gave me a quick and accesible way for many people to contribute to a celebration board. Everyone i sent the link to was able to effortlessly submit their poat and attach their images. Many of the people i sent the link to created cutom images to attach and it made the board feel so special and unique.

Cons

I had no issues with wrenly at all. It would be fun if there was a way to add an animation that pops up before it shows the board that you could customize with the recipients name, what the celebration is about etc.

September 3, 2024

4.0

Very satisfied with the product. Used it to collect get well wishes for a coworker. The recipient was very happy to receive the gift and was able to print it out. Wrenly offered most of the core functionality that one might need for free, so it was a great choice for a gift.

Pros

Free with most of the core functionality as other competitors

Cons

Layout could be improved in terms of the background wallpaper and the way the tiles are organized.

Pros

The ability to create surveys and push them out with ease is outstanding! My grandmother could use it.

Cons

### "Loving Wrenly"

February 8, 2024

5.0

My encounter with Wrenly has been overwhelmingly positive. We eagerly anticipate how Wrenly's services will facilitate employee connectivity as our company continues to expand.

Pros

The convenience of having a comprehensive package tailored to meet all our requirements is remarkable. \[sensitive content hidden\] exceptional attention to detail made working with him a truly amazing experience.

Cons

I cannot find a single fault with Wrenly! All I have are positive remarks to share.

Reason for choosing Wrenly

We selected Wrenly for two equally significant reasons. Firstly, the array of features it offers stood out to us. Secondly, \[sensitive content hidden\] dedication to his company and his assurance that Wrenly could fulfill all our requirements provided us with confidence in our decision. Choosing to partner with him and Wrenly was undoubtedly the right investment for our company's culture.

### "My Experience with Wrenly "

August 19, 2024

5.0

Find it through googling and it was a pretty simple and easy thing to set up. Very efficent and to the point. I liked the experience and think this is a long term product that desrves to stick around.

Pros

I liked how intuiative the products were. I could see a few different applications and it was very straight forward to know what and where I had to do things.

Cons

I do think some of the costs were a bit much for some casual useage. Some lower quicker cost options would probably drive up useage for temporary or trail experiences. Not the biggest deal though.

Good! Easy to use, very intuitive, and best of all its freeeee

Pros

It's free, there's no limit on the boards. I used to use kudoboard but it's not free.

Cons

You can't move the cards around. Our board had a really long poem and it just made everything look very uneven.

January 20, 2026

5.0

Quickly, you can find all the emotions and groups in one place. The most important thing is that it integrates with Slack, since you don't have to leave one app to find another and make reviews.

Pros

Easy to write and publish. I just published it, and I really liked that I can add several people to one review; it saves me time and allows me to thank several people at the same time.

Cons

mmm more emojis. I was advertising, but they should leave more options to choose from when I finish a review.

### "Best Feedback & Recognition Tool Out There!"

February 9, 2024

5.0

It’s been amazing! It has boosted our company culture, increased the opportunity to provide appreciation, and real time information sharing (suggestion box or pulse surveys) without a concern of retaliation if the information, issue, or recommendation is not an easy one to share. It also helps provide great monthly reports to look at the people data differently. Very helpful as you didn't know it was necessary until you have it! The leadership loves seeing how the team is doing, the connections made by recognizing each other and the value we can show how we appreciate them. It's great to see any concerns in real time as well as being able to address them right away. The tool allows us to communicate with them even though they are anonymous and to see we care and want to make positive changes immediately.

Pros

It’s so amazing this app works directly through Slack. Creating ease for our team as this is our main method of communication. We love the incoming feedback questions that change weekly, the ability to recognize anyone within seconds, and that this tool can provide the ability to remain anonymous if they feel it is needed to share information with us. I also really love the culture score to better see how the team is doing in different areas. It really aids in learning how to improve and support your employees.

Cons

I haven’t experienced anything negative with Wrenly. Any time I need assistance or am not sure how to navigate something, their support team swoops in to assist!

### "Wrenly helps drive positive remote culture "

February 9, 2024

5.0

Pros

am delighted to share my experience with Wrenly, an exceptional AI employee engagement tool that played a pivotal role in transforming our company's remote culture. From the outset, Ali Khan, co-founder of Wrenly, demonstrated unwavering support by addressing product inquiries, assisting with setup, and regularly checking in on our progress, offering valuable recommendations. Following a significant divestiture that resulted in a 60% reduction in headcount, our company faced the imperative to rejuvenate our remote culture. Collaborating closely with our committee, we redefined our company values and leveraged Wrenly's shoutouts feature to encourage colleagues to recognize each other's alignment with these values. This proved instrumental in fostering a positive atmosphere after a major organizational shift. In the aftermath of these changes, employee psychological safety took a hit, with many hesitant to voice concerns due to fears of retaliation. Wrenly came to our rescue by facilitating the creation of an anonymous feedback channel. This confidential avenue allowed employees to submit feedback directly to HR, enabling us to address concerns and rebuild trust within the organization. Wrenly has seamlessly integrated into our employee culture, becoming a cornerstone in our efforts to sustain positive changes. Biweekly usage for quick feedback surveys ensures a continuous pulse on employee sentiments, reinforcing our dedication to ensuring every voice is heard. Thanks to Wrenly, we have successfully orchestrated a remarkable turnaround in our company culture, emphasizing transparency, recognition, and continuous improvement.

Cons

Reporting features are more limited. We incorporated the shoutout feature into a monthly drawing we do for employees. The canned report is limited in its ability to generate the output of data in a simple report.

March 7, 2024

4.0

Good rollout without any issues. Operating the admin side of the tool is very easy and makes viewing results much more efficient. No complaints so far.

Pros

I mostly like that it is integrated into Slack and the admin portal is very flexible and easy to use. The reporting and data outputs are simple as well meaning you can tailor surveys and questions to drill further into insights taken from the data.

Cons

Nothing so far, a great customer experience and smooth rollout. I can imagine there would be different challenges when rolling out across a large organisation.

### "Great for Collaborative Recognition Boards"

September 9, 2024

5.0

It was easy to use, and the free version suited us well for what we needed. It was easy to collaborate on the project as a team, while also keeping it a secret from the person we were surprising. I would continue to use this service over services like kudosboard.

Pros

We had a staff member leaving, and they didn't want to do a going away event. We had used kudosboard in the past with students, so I wanted to do something similar for them. Wrenly provided a free option for us to add in our own images, videos and words of encouragement. I love that we could create a recognition board for free.

Cons

I don't know that there were any cons with the way we were using it. It allowed us to all collaborate together and add our own messages. While the free version worked for what we needed, it would be challenging to get approval for a paid subscription, because we have internal platforms for some of the features.

### "Amazing Customer Service and FREE to Use!"

September 25, 2024

5.0

Amazing customer service! I was struggling with accidental posts and the inability to edit or delete them, and I kept having to create new boards. Thankfully, I got in touch with the customer service team, and they were very quick to solve my problem. Honestly, their customer service has made me loyal.

Pros

This is literally just as great as Kudoboard, except it's FREE. It's hard to convince a workplace to pay for a service (like Kudoboard) a happy birthday, but it really goes a long way for collegiate support and morale. This is the perfect solution to keep it free and accessible, allowing people to celebrate, offer sympathy, and more to their colleagues without needing to pay their own way to make it happen. It also doesn't have any ridiculous advertisements and annoying pop ups like other "free" sites include.

Cons

At the beginning, there were issues with people not being able to edit their post. After connecting with the customer service folks, they were able to help solve all the issues (and I believe this is already fixed permanently on the systems end).

### "Fun, intuitive, and chalk-full of cool features!"

September 12, 2024

5.0

Super easy to use, actually fun and enjoyable, aligned perfectly with my usual style of communication, and vastly simplifies the process of expressing yourself. Best of all, practically limitless.

Pros

The "Create Meme" function was an immediate WOW, YES PLEASE moment for me, that I've never seen on any similar platforms before. As an avid meme connoisseur surrounded by avid meme consumers (along with the fact that memes sometimes convey messages much better than text or gifs), I immediately knew that I would be able to express myself fully, no matter what the occasion.

Cons

Frankly, I've found nothing troublesome so far.

Switched from

[Kudoboard](https://www.capterra.com/p/182991/Kudoboard/)
