### "Didn’t know I needed this until I tried"

August 12, 2021

5.0

Pros

Love the thoughtful prompts and focus areas on a vast yet really detailed list of skills. Having these at the finger tips of our team members makes it very easy for anyone and everyone to give and seek feedback.

Cons

Nothing in particular, they are just getting started and would love to see them keep up the pace they are on.

### "Matter Matters"

May 30, 2024

4.0

Pros

Matter makes it easy to recognise my peers and reward great work and spread positivity in the team.

Cons

In Slack not the biggest fan of having to leave the modal in the Kudos channel we have (as a project manager quite often I have to give recognition to whole project teams and like to check I've referenced everybody who was involved)

### "Great for employee recognition, birthdays and anniversaries!"

June 7, 2024

5.0

Pros

We used Matter for around a year and it was great for our employee recognition - giving the team a chance to shout out about their colleagues and praise each other for the work they have done. Also, we found it really useful when announcing birthdays and anniversaries, setting reminders for the team to respond to. The choice of vouchers was also great!

Cons

There weren't many cons for us, we were happy with the product however managed to find an alternative platform that had similar rewards therefore, we cancelled our contract this year. The engagement did drop after a little while so would've been nice to have something to keep the team engaged!

### "Gamify employee recognition and engagement!"

May 29, 2024

5.0

Pros

It gamifies the recognition of employees and gives us a metric to strive for in an entertaining way. It allows us to give kudos to each other, management, etc and vice versa in an environment conducive for allowing culture to grow organically since we all know it can't be simply built with words and directives from leadership.

Cons

Nothing comes to mind that I don't specifically like and I've not run into any issues to speak of.

It has been great i love that you are able to say nice things about another person and them being recognized by peers

Pros

I loved the recognition that you receive and others are able to also see the comments as well as our bosses. Sometimes things are left unrecognized so its nice to have someone put your good deeds

Cons

I actually dont have anything i do not like.

### "How Matter works for us!"

March 1, 2024

5.0

Matter bot is fun to use and very engaging. You gt notified when someone posts in the channel and I always find myself reading all of the feedback.

Pros

I really enjoy the ability to give back to my colleagues even when it's something small. helps bring all of the hard work to light and everyone can get their recognition.

Cons

some of the themes can be repetitive but its not a big issue.

### "It's the little things that Matter."

May 29, 2024

5.0

It's a lovely complement to our day to day and makes me smile.

Pros

Its super easy to use, both when giving Kudos to my peers and receiving feedback myself. I like the Friday gifs that are used to hype everyone up. The reminders help to put some space and thought around gratitude. That always lights me up and makes my spirit happy.

Cons

Nothing really, there's really nothing to not like.

### "Matter Review"

August 12, 2021

5.0

It's a nicely intuitive tool but just isn't game changing enough yet to be worked into our OKRs in the company. If you could set it to trigger celebrations when an individual or a department hit an objective that would be amazing.

Pros

Easy to use and clearly displays the feedback. The designs of the templates are nice and it's quick and relatively hassle free to get setup.

Cons

There's only two options to provide feedback, so it only makes it possible to use in some scenarios. The feedback isn't customisable so it ends up being fatiguing seeing the same feedback templates over and over. It's also not customisable with brand. You can't screenshot what a specific person has done, if it's a development task you're praising, for example.

### "Show Your Colleagues Your Appreciation!"

May 24, 2024

5.0

Pros

This platform allows us to show our appreciation to our co-worker and management staff for all the little things they do to help us do our jobs brilliantly!

Cons

Sometimes the reminders are too much, when you're having a hectic day and don't have time to stop and read them! Other than that, I find it useful!

### "Matter matters "

June 3, 2024

5.0

Pros

What I enjoy most about Matter is that it allows me to have weekly engagement with my co-workers and also allows me to give out "coins" or appreciation for their work. Coins can then be traded for real money so I think it always makes an impact when someone gives me some of their limited coin allowance.

Cons

The only thing I think could be improved is some more fun pre-made kudos templates. Although I know we have the ability to make our own which is also great!

### "Great product, poor integration into my routine"

August 12, 2021

3.0

Pros

\- Feedback outside of traditional performance reviews is important

Cons

\- Matter's features do not entice me to return back to the product after feedback is given. It's easy to forget about it - Difficult to get my colleagues onboarded in mass

Thank you for your feedback, David. We recently launched Matter for Teams along with our Slack integration in July. This should make feedback giving more sticky. We encourage you to give Matter another spin with your team!

### "Nothing but good things to say"

March 11, 2024

5.0

Pros

A lot of companies don't do a good job of highlighting the accomplishments and hard work of its individuals. Matter makes doing so easy. The weekly recognition between peers and higher-ups is fast and fun, while giving people the validation they deserve.

Cons

Nope, I truly have nothing negative to say about my experience.

### "Take your feedback with you"

August 25, 2021

5.0

Pros

I simply loved it. Simple and effective, allowed creating tailored questions easily. What I liked the most, is the fact that I could take my feedback "with me" when I switched jobs, as the tool was not bounded to a particular company, my profile was just for me. I believe the fact that every company I worked for had its own feedback tool, yet I still ended up using matter speaks a lot.

Cons

I didn't like that other people do not have a profile on Matter, I had to invite my colleagues and every time explain what matter is, as I was using the free version. I would love to work at a company that embedded the tool within its structures.

Matter was started with the premise that professional feedback should be bottoms up and carried from one job to another. I'll be sure to pass on your feedback to our product team.
