### "Bonusly is rocking it!!"

April 1, 2019

4.0

Bonusly was so easy to learn, we were all on within 5 minutes time. It's a great opportunity for us to let our teammates know how much we really care about them and to highlight our awesomeness when we do something wonderful for our clients. I'm so grateful my leaders found this program.

Pros

Bonusly is super easy to use. I love being able to add on a GIF and I super love being able to redeem tokens for more tokens so I can keep giving.

Cons

Nothing so far. This program is super easy to use. It did take me a minute to figure out how to give a few less or a few more tokens but I caught on real fast.

May 18, 2021

5.0

I used Bonusly at a previous company and am trying to have my new company adopt the tool. It was so great and an extra incentive the company treated you to

Pros

The way to reward your hardworking employees, co-workers and peers The ability to reap rewards and treat yourself to something

Cons

Limited options at times to turn your points into gift cards but they expanded over time and have great options and offerings

I like the granularity that is possible. The customization and the ease of use.

Hi Ronald! Thanks for taking the time to leave us feedback about Bonusly. It's great to read that you like to use Bonusly to recognize your teammates! Ah, we believe adding company values as hashtags helps build visibility towards those values and leave it up to the admins to decide which values to add. That being said, I'd suggest reaching out to your admins to open a dialogue regarding adding more values as hashtags. Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience with us.

February 24, 2020

5.0

Pros

I love giving my teammates a pat on the back for the selfless things that they do. Also, it surfaces members contributions that I may not be aware of.

Cons

The gifs are small to read. It would be nice to have a search by individual.

### "Remote Project Manager "

September 7, 2022

4.0

Pros

I enjoy it - it's nice to be able to give appreciation for colleagues as a fully remote project manager. It is also a small but useful incentive to help motivate the team to collaborate.

Cons

The choices for hashtags were too few - I wanted to give a gift to my colleague for her birthday but there was no way to skip the hashtag. This also makes the reporting feature inaccurate. The portfolio of rewards was also a little sparse and some of the organizations advertised for donations promoted political positions.

### "Great for workplace morale"

February 13, 2019

5.0

It really helps with day to day interaction. Making people feel appreciated, and happy to help others. Of course, they already feel this way, but it's a nice reminder to let others know that they're valued.

Pros

It lets you interact with your coworkers on a more fun, and personal level. It's so much better than a "thank you for your help" email.

Cons

Sometimes I don't get emails when I've been given points, and I can't figure out in settings how to fix this problem.

Transparent appreciation, it helps establish a health culture.

Pros

The appreciation aspect of it. Giving the ability to our employees to recognize their fellow co workers is the biggest benefit of the platform.

Pros

Bonusly allows coworkers to recognize and celebrate each other's achievements and provide morale boosting rewards that everyone in the company can see.

Website is not always the easiest to navigate. It would be nice if users could search on the rewards page to locate a specific company as opposed to randomly searching through each subsection. Also would be nice to be able to find your individual page easier.
