> 
> **Pros**: The person can see your performance and your help another person recognized.
> 
> **Cons**: Are little number of cards to recognize, maybe more is interesting

### "BRAVO to Recognize\!" — 5.0/5

> **Teresa** | *19 November 2024* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love how easy it is to use the BRAVO platform.
> 
> **Cons**: The process to upload new employees is a bit wonky. Seems as though you should be able to add all new employees directly into the system and not have to upload a file.
> 
> My Experience has been really great with Recognize. Really like the BRAVO platform, the updates and the continual improvements.

### "TERRIBLE company" — 1.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *11 September 2018* | Performing Arts | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Functionality looks good, easy to use, and has a similarity to social media. Peer recognition capability is a good thing.
> 
> **Cons**: Their integrity is highly lacking.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;Recognize has no integrity. We were working with them and planning to use them when a superior platform came to our attention -- one that, for very little more cost, provided not only a peer recognition platform but also a performance review and feedback platform and an amazingly robust employee engagement survey platform. The peer recognition platform of the superior company is virtually identical to Recognize in functionality. However, we paid for Recognize, prior to hearing about the other platform. But when we informed Recognize that we had changed our mind, we got ZERO refund. Not even partial. The ONLY work Recognize had done was create our company's page. We hadn't even loaded our users' names. Literally no implementation occurred. And not only did they refuse any refund, even partial, they completely ignored my calls, letters, and emails. Seven or eight months later, their sales guy sends me an email asking if I'd like to see a new demo?? Um, no. It's safe to say not only will Recognize never get any business from me, no matter what company I'm with, but any time someone asks me about Recognize they will learn of Recognize's sleazy behavior. They made 100% profit on us and delivered literally nothing.

### "Recognizing the Recognize" — 5.0/5

> **Priscila** | *6 December 2024* | Utilities | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like how easy it is to use the tool. It's didactic and doesn't require training to use the recognition features.
> 
> **Cons**: There's nothing I don't like. The tool is easy to use and I haven't had any problems.
> 
> I have a good experience, I use the tool monthly to recognize work colleagues and I don't see any difficulties in using the tool.

### "Encouraging Greatness in Recognize" — 5.0/5

> **Jennifer** | *4 December 2024* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is very simple to use as a tool to acknowledge co-workers-teammates  for encouragement and excellent work.
> 
> **Cons**: Would love to give out more than 20 per month.  &#10;Food redemption start at $50 instead of $10 IE: Dunkin-Starbucks; BK
> 
> Smooth, concise and simple ... &#10;Wonderful feeling to recognize great work to my fellow co-workers.

The solution integrates with existing workplace tools to enhance company culture through structured recognition programs. The platform caters primarily to mid-size and large enterprises seeking to improve employee retention, strengthen workplace connections, and reinforce organizational values through systematic recognition initiatives.\n\nThe platform offers a comprehensive suite of features centered around employee acknowledgment and engagement. Its core functionality includes peer-to-peer and manager-to-employee recognition capabilities with customizable badges that align with company values. The system incorporates gamification elements such as points, leaderboards, and a social recognition feed that increases visibility across the organization. Recognize's automated workflows handle recurring recognition events including service anniversaries and birthdays, eliminating manual tracking.
