### "Qarrot, No Stick"

September 27, 2018

5.0

Pros

The site app is quick, the support is impressively fast, the staff are keen to evaluate and implement ideas, pricing is sharp

Cons

Limited integration with other services such as Slack, etc. However, I know they're working on this as of the date of this review. Limited number of badge icons - again, I know this is something they're working on so take it with a grain of salt!

### "Innovated Way to Engage & Recognize Others"

October 1, 2025

5.0

Pros

Employees are able to give recognition for their team members and others they collaborate with o achieve the best possible solutions for their clients and projects they are working on. This then allows the awards to be cashed in for things they want from the available offerings.

Cons

I do not have any cons for . All my experience with Qarrot thus far has been very positive and engaging.

### "Maybe it's me..."

April 24, 2019

3.0

To reiterate, I know this doesn't really reflect on the designers and creators of , so this isn't really a fair criticism and it's certainly not directed at the people behind it. As I said, I think it's a good idea - on paper. Unfortunately it's the average user that either treats it or turns it into something it wasn't really meant for. Or better yet, they misuse the system in a way that's not really intended. (recognising friends for example). Overall, I personally do not use it given how quickly it became something to do "just because", if the average user used it properly and gave recognitions for people that do genuinely go above and beyond or what not, then I would follow suit. Because hard work does need reward in some way, especially for those that deserve it. Still a good idea however, just not with some of the mind-set people have on my floor, from my experience anyway.

Pros

I certainly like the intention behind it, I will always vouch and support something that is designed to encourage reward and recognition within a working environment.

Cons

I'm not really a fan of the social media element it's taken with the social feed and email notifications, perhaps these can be turned off somewhere but they very quickly got annoying. In all honesty, it got to the point where I set up a rule in my outlook to move any emails from to my deleted folder, even recognitions, because they started flooding my inbox with everyone recognising each other. My main criticism is possibly a bit harsh, as it's not really anything to do with the intention, design or even the implementation behind it all, but I don't think it has much staying power. What I mean specifically, is that things like Qarrot soon turn into a popularity contest or something that people do because it's expected of them or they're asked to do it by management. We are already seeing here at Honda that people are 'recognising' friends over genuine colleagues, where they're both giving 'jokey' awards for not getting points in their Fantasy Football League, or for doing their day to day job. You know, something that would have been the minimum expectation of them before Qarrot was about. People are now being rewarded/recognised for doing their normal Job it seems. ("Thanks for sending over those forms in a timely manner" - is something you might see and think, isn't that expected of you anyway?) More in the next box.

### "Game changer"

October 1, 2025

5.0

It has been great. The staff/employees really feel appreciated when they can turn that appreciation into money.

Pros

Easy recognition that is reinforcement based. As an ABA professional, having tangible reinforcement for the staff is a game changer.

Cons

Nothing. The interface is easy to use, has lots of gift card options, and lets you shout out groups or individuals.

### "We love Qarrots!"

October 20, 2025

5.0

I am really enjoying the redeemable gifts cards; the challenge to rack up points; it's like a race sometimes. Very fun!

Pros

I like the fact that we can acknowledge our team players and reward them for their great effort; redeemable gift cards.

Cons

The one thing I like least about qarrots is that not enough giving points monthly. We have so many people to acknowledge for their hard work.

Thanks so much for your review! The amount of giving points you receive each month is determined by your program administrators, so you’re always welcome to share this feedback with them if you’d like to see the budget increased. In the meantime, you can definitely continue celebrating your teammates even after your points run out. Sending a message and a badge is a great way to recognize hard work and keep the positivity going! Thanks again for using Qarrot! 🥕

### "Qarrot makes rewards a breeze."

October 20, 2025

5.0

Login is usually easy and redeeming points is easy and fun! It's like Christmas multiple times a year!

Pros

So easy to use. I've never had to use Customer Service yet. There are so many gift cards to choose from and it's easy to add your own.

Cons

Login changed and I followed the steps to get that taken care of, but then each time after, it still wants me to reset and that is SUPER frustrating, since I've already done it.

Thank you for sharing your feedback! We recently updated our authentication system to enhance account security. If you’ve already reset your password once since this change, you shouldn’t be asked to do it again. If you’re still being prompted every time you log in, that’s definitely not expected. Please reach out to our Support team so we can quickly look into your account and get this resolved for you: help@qarrot.com Thank you again for your patience and for being a Qarrot user! 🥕💚

October 1, 2025

5.0

Amazing. I appreciate being able to save points without losing them. I love being able to see my fellow co workers get positive feedback from customers. The app is easy to use and I appreciate the notifications

Pros

I have a variety of choices to chose from with the rewards and I am able to give multiple techs recognition in 1 quote

Cons

Our profile pictures are small. There isn't too much I dislike about . I am very happy with Qarrot and appreciate that I have control with my rewards.

### "Definitely Recommend for Employee Recognition"

October 2, 2025

5.0

Pros

Fantastic customer support! Employees appreciate the ability to choose which vendors to get a GC for and there's very little learning curve involved.

Cons

Sometime difficult to create the custom reporting that our company requires. Otherwise, this has been a true time saver.

October 15, 2025

5.0

Positive and easy experience. Very simple to get gift cards, save up and spend points. I would highly recommend.

I enjoy the gift card feature the most. It is the most useful and rewarding for myself and other staff members.

There have been some errors occasionally when trying to finalize gift cards but have been since fixed.

### "Add more options"

December 13, 2024

5.0

Excellent - only wish we could choose our own amounts.

Pros

Its amazing how we can earn Qarrots toward Paid Days Off.

Cons

That we cannot just choose our own amounts (up to our limits of course) to give to someone. After my coworkers husband passed I wanted to give her my full 200 allotted but I had to do it in numerous increments as there is no way for me to choose 200.

### "Overall Great Product"

April 22, 2024

5.0

Pros

I love that it is customizable to adapt to our smaller organization. I also enjoy the automation of our employee birthdays and anniversaries. helps us as an organization stay connected to each other even though we have branches spread across 4 different communities. I also enjoy that we can customize the rewards to include small business within our communities.

Cons

I wish there was a page similar to a marketplace. We have branches spread out over 4 communities and a wide variety or employees in different stages of life. It would just be another way to connect employees and help each other out.

### "review of Qarrot"

April 24, 2019

5.0

Fantastic. Every time we've had an issue I feel the team has gone above and beyond to help us out or to make things right. Even if we find a small bug they fix it right away they follow up with us to tell us it has been corrected. Excellent service!

Pros

The end user experience. If you want to reward someone for doing a good job, they are not limited by what gift card you can find at the local store. Being able to customize rewards with comply logos is amazing.

Cons

Because you have so many options, it is difficult for some of our team leads to create campaigns. No matter how many times we try to walk people though something they seem to get lost. Also, the hard close on a campaign is a little difficult to work around. We have to end our campaigns a few days after they really end to give the employee enough time to enter in all their data.

### "Excellent idea"

April 17, 2019

5.0

I have had a good experience with so far, I have had the pleasure of being rewarded and recognised by fellow colleagues which always puts a smile on my face and it is nice to know that you can show people how much you appreciate their help and effort in the workplace.

Pros

the ability to easily recognise and reward colleagues. also being able to manoeuvre around the application with ease very well designed and a great idea

Cons

there's not much that needs to be fixed as it has been very successful. I think it would however be nice to add more rewards and expand on the types of badges.

August 28, 2019

5.0

Great software which can be deployed in a small, medium or large business.

Pros

Fast, effective and easy to use. There's no complication and it's very straightforward.

Cons

To purchase vouchers there is an additional cost for the card itself. This is not a software issue and more a services issue.

Thanks for the feedback, Car! To make logging in easier, you save your username and password in your web browser (when on a computer) or use the 'Autofill password' feature on iPhone (go into Settings, then Passwords & Accounts). Hope this is helpful.

April 29, 2019

4.0

Once the employees are invested and excited about the program they really jump at the opportunity to earn rewards.

Pros

It's easy to navigate the software for both administration and employees. The feed allows for easy communication across the entire nationwide team.

Cons

The most difficult part is just re-entering data that could auto populate or be stored for another use.

Boost your team's performance with and manage their work through it!

Pros

It is very easy and simple to use - it integrates your teammates together well. It has many many interesting options!
