Awardco vs. Sociabble

Awardco is a very well priced solution that allows for recognition, interactions and more. I think it’s well suited for small to mid sized companies who want to honour and recognize their coworkers but not put tons of bloat into a software to do so. It may be less appropriate if your company has employees in multiple countries or is over 200 people.

Something I really [like about Sociabble} is the ease of use of the tool, for the most part, and the information provided about the various features within [the software]. On the other hand, [I suggest] that Sociabble [should prove upon] the different [purviews] of admin and users. Sociabble [could be useful if there [were] different gradations of admin's [role in coordinating with] the user's [ability to modify] and edit posts and comments.

• User-Friendly Layout: A layout and feel that will be very familiar to anyone who uses other social media channels, especially Pinterest.
• Ease Of Use: Incredibly simple platform to connect your profiles with and begin using; while it has significant opportunity for customization and higher-level usage, the basic purpose and configuration of the platform is incredibly straight-forward.
• Customization: There are a ton of customizable options and elements that Sociabble provides, compared to other products on the market.

• I would like the system to be able to send email notifications to more than the employee and the HR Manager. It would be great if we could include the manager and the GM as well. Now I just forward the message to the others.

• Gamification is geared towards adding new users (and thus paid for seats for Sociabble), rather than incentives to promote specific campaigns by existing users.
• Can’t measure engagement for a particular month/week.
• I believe that the price can be revised and improved, not taking all the performance out of the software, just analyzing that it is great and that it can have more reach if the price is improved for interested parties with lower conditions.

Excellent product, easy to implement and use, solid customer service, employees love it

It’s not super user friendly compared to other apps I have used in the past, and it also offers not as many partners. One feature that would improve it, would be connecting award bucks to a digital credit card. That way employees can spend it on what they want without having to get a visa gift card which is the current solution/ work around

Never an issue

I am giving a "middle of the road" rating of 5 because I don't have experience with Awardco support. I have never had to reach out to the support team for anything, so I don't have any substantial feedback in this particular area. The program is so easy to use, so I've never needed to contact the support team.

As I professionally felt that this is going well and, as per my expectations, pretty much useful for me.

We had a dedicated person and he went over everything we needed to know on how to operate the system. Lots of examples and test environment was used

It was very in depth and easy to understand. There was a dedicated person that was assigned to our account and that made it easier to move forward. The process was very easy to follow

I have only used a few other award programs and selections have been extremely limited. There is nothing worse than receiving a catalog with 10-15 items to choose from and you don't really want any of the items. It is even worse when the company spends two to three times the cost on a gift that can be purchased elsewhere for much, much less. The employee has an idea how much something costs and as a result feels like the company didn't appreciate them by giving an inexpensive gift. Awardco gifts are dollar for dollar.

Sociabble is the more premium and customizable version of Smarp. It offers significantly more customization, even if it isn't as 'turnkey' of a solution for a team. I would encourage anyone with a large team (100+ members) or the time/resources to commit to this effort to consider Sociabble, while I'd recommend Smarp for smaller teams or a company that doesn't have the time/bandwidth to dedicate resources to the management of the platform.

This product was deployed across our entire organization from the start and replaced an old manual process

• We are a company that thrives on competition & rewards. Awardco has helped us simplify that rewards process, and it's much easier for us as we create competition prizes.
• Our employees are much more engaged in the competitions because they know they will win points that can be used on just about anything.
• Since we've started using Awardco we have hit record numbers in sales in a month.

• Currently, I feel positive towards reaching teams and sharing the Ideas
• ROI is a big thing that I can't comment on.
• Overall objectives, we are meeting at-least 65% what we are expecting, have to experience little more—as of know well going.
