### "Kudos are a game changer for a healthier work culture"

March 1, 2024

4.0

I've been a kudos reciever and giver during the last year and a half, and it's a nice way to feel appreciated by your team, to help them feel special because of the connection that Home office lacks. Putting those feelings into words and turning it into a kind of social stream that's commentable and with the ability to add reactions from slack is a very good add-on to everyday work life

Pros

Giving Kudos help us encourage a culture of recognition in all our collaborators, we have a Feedback Friday instituted, to help everyone recognize a specific type of kudo to their peers

Cons

It doesn't have a lot of options, kudos is a very simple functionality, maybe adding diversity on additional stuff apart from the kudos types, that only change color and an icon, it could help

January 14, 2025

5.0

Pros

It is a fun way to celebrate your team when they do something amazing

Cons

i think we should be able to get more coins - but understand that is not a matter issue - but those who run it - so nothing major to dislike

### "Highly Recommend for Remote companies "

December 12, 2024

5.0

10/10 I love the transparency it gives my company to see how i'm having an impact on it's success and gives me the platform to showcase other coworkers who are going above and beyond in their job.

Pros

It helps remote workers build relationships with other departments and coworkers.

Cons

No complaints, or improvements on my side needed, the only additional feature is to add which departments or tangible results have made an impact, but I think the showcasing nature and free form shoutout is the best way to acknowledge progress made.

### "Overall Awesome Experience with Matter!"

December 12, 2024

5.0

I love how easy it is to use, and the ability to send coins with kudos is a great touch, it makes showing appreciation more fun. The gifs are definitely a highlight too. Plus, the automation is flawless, everything just works smoothly. It’s a really enjoyable app all around!

Pros

What I liked most about Matter is the ability to send coins along with kudos! It's such a great way to show appreciation while also earning coins. It makes the experience feel more rewarding and fun!

Cons

Honestly, I liked pretty much everything, especially the gifs! Can't really think of anything I disliked!

### "Overall positive experience"

December 17, 2024

4.0

Overall our experience has been positive. We like the incentives it rewards our employees with, and overall think it's a good idea. It's a bit underutilized at times in our environment, but I think that's a more personal issue rather than an issue with the product.

Pros

It does help with employee happiness and productivity by incentivizing people with free gifts for a job well done/anniversaries and birthdays.

Cons

Tends to get a bit underutilized in our environment; "Feedback Friday" gets missed a lot simply because we tend to be too busy to get around to it.

### "A Great Way to Recognize Colleagues"

December 17, 2024

5.0

I've really enjoyed it, so far. The fact it can be integrated with messaging apps like Slack is super convenient.

Pros

It's very easy to provide colleagues with immediate feedback

Cons

Redeeming points doesn't take them out of your "earned" total, which can be confusing to know how many you currently have to redeem. You basically have to take the two totals and subtract the second from the first.

### "Great Redemption System"

December 12, 2024

4.0

Overall positive and easy to use platform.

Pros

I like the amount of giftcards available for redemption. I also like the flexibility of splitting up the rewards and not having to use the full bank at once.

Cons

I wish "cents" could be used, for example 94pts = $9.40, rather than rounding to the nearest dollar.
