## Reviews

### "Everyday is a Bonus Day with Workstars" — 5.0/5

> **Abhinav** | *05 June 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Worstars provides a great engagement to employees with its micro bonus points which can be converted into amazing rewards. I love the way we can recognize colleagues' efforts with it and reward them for the same.
> 
> **Cons**: It would be great if we can do more analysis on Workstars as it captures lot of details regarding employee work and achievements if companies use this data more efficiently it would be helpful in various decision marking processes.
> 
> Overall I love Workstars and every week I like giving rewards to all my friends who helped me in my work and more than that love to receive rewards in return. It's an amazing tool and every company must use it to engage their employees more in work that could reward with small gifts other than salary.

### "Great tool\!" — 4.0/5

> **cristina** | *24 March 2021* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Its really very easy and fast to use. Just look for the one you want to recognize + choose the topic + write some words + submit\! You do not need to spend many minutes to recognize your team members.
> 
> **Cons**: I am missing the possibility of search my team order by alphabetical order, for example. &#10;I would like also having optional the comments once you recognize someone (50 characters is not too much to fill, I know, but sometimes its not needed to dedicate some words to that one)&#10;Finally I am missing additional rewards, I have 5 or 10 but additional amounts as 20 or 25 should be considered. Maybe an option to write the amount manually would be nice to have.

### "Brilliant" — 5.0/5

> **ben** | *18 August 2022* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It has been a success for all employees, our shift has been crying out for something like this for years and since it has been implemented it has been a very useful tool.
> 
> **Cons**: I feel there is a lot of potential with the software, there is so much I feel could be added and there a few things that are clunky to use but, I dont see any other service working this well and easy to use. :)
> 
> A lot of morale boosts, alot of staff wanted a place to give their praise etc, our previous recognition software was very clunky and hard to use. This has helped the less technologically able bunch and the customisation of avatars is nice to see too its quirky.

### "Great tool for workplace appreciation" — 4.0/5

> **Kara** | *09 April 2021* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I really like how easy it is to train people to use this software, and it's a great tool for promoting goodwill across our organization. I am easily able to look up my teammates, tie my appreciation to a workplace value, and share my recognition with their manager.
> 
> **Cons**: I wish the data reporting was stronger in terms of aggregate data analysis. There is more I'd like to do with the data.
> 
> Great experience, great software, great company\!
