Awardco vs. thanks!

Awardco has something for everyone. I have employees in a variety of age groups and some want to travel, some want a tangible item, and others feel like they don't really need/want anything so they choose a gift card so they can use it how and when they choose. Awardco allows that flexibility. Also, if the individual isn't ready to make a selection right away, they can save their points to use at a later time. If an individual would like to select an item larger than their award amount, they are not able to add dollars to their personal account, which may cause some frustration to an individual.

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

The interface is really easy to use. You just point and click and you're ready to go. I'm not on the side responsible for setting things up internally, so I'm not sure how challenging it is to integrate. But from an end user perspective it's easy to know how to navigate to the different pages.

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.

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.

No, it was a basic standard agreement with straightforward terms

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