Motivosity is motivating! I enjoy this program

It has been eye opening for me to see the kinds of things people recognize as something to thank someone for. The little things we do really matter to people. I personally have appreciated the little thank yous and I have heard several other express their joy over knowing they are appreciated!

Functionality

Pros:

The best part about Motivosity, which is probably obvious, is the ability to thank your coworkers, leaders, subordinates, those in dotted line relationships, etc. for a wide variety of things with or without the Bucks. It seems safe to use- as far getting gift cards it seemed really secure. I had no issues.

Cons:

I feel like Motivosity is set up in a familiar social media way so it was easy to navigate and use I think. But the challenge really is getting people to use it. I mean some people just don't do social media or don't understand it. I am sure the worst part for me is really not having a lot of Bucks to give to my team. I understand that is more of a company budget thing but I am really overall happy with it.

Strengthening Connections in a Remote Workplace

Pros:

As a fully remote team, Motivosity has given us a virtual space to recognize one another and connect over shared interests. It’s a fun, dynamic way to keep positivity flowing throughout the organization and makes celebrating both small and big wins effortless.

Cons:

We haven't had any negative experiences. Spaces was a really great addition to the platform and made it stand out from other options. Surveys would be a nice feature to add.

Reasons for choosing Motivosity

Terryberry has a phenomenal wellness section, but it was outside of our price range. If we had more budget, since we are a wellness compnay, we probably would have selected Terryberry Bonusly was very similar to Motivosity, but the UI wasnt as attractive. Pricing was about the same. And the spaces section was also a plus with Motivosity

Motivosity helps cultivate a culture of positivity

All of our employees actively use Motivosity to foster a culture of appreciation and recognition. Each team member receives a monthly monetary allowance specifically designated for rewarding their peers. The majority of employees consistently distribute their allocations, contributing to a vibrant and supportive environment. Engagement on the platform is strong, with employees regularly recognizing one another’s contributions and celebrating successes.

Pros:

Motivosity helps us cultivate a culture of positivity by keeping our team engaged, energized, and connected. We especially appreciate the automatic monthly allocation of funds, which makes it easy for employees to recognize and reward one another.

Cons:

The only drawback I experienced was that Motivosity didn’t initially integrate with our employee portal, Paylocity. However, this has since been addressed with the addition of a Teams app

Reasons for choosing Motivosity

The functionality of Motivosity exceeded that of Paylocity's platform, even though it was integrated with our payroll system.

Pros:

Motivosity has significantly improved our employee engagement. We are consistently seeing staff appreciate each other and share their success stories.

Reasons for choosing Motivosity

When analyzing the various features for each program, Motivosity seemed to check the most boxes while also being customizable and within budget.

Motovosity for the win!

I love being able to interact and praise coworkers. Especially if they are not directly in my office. It's a wonderful tool to help keep everyone connected on what is happening in the company, who does what, who is moving up, who learned what. What teams and entities are up too. etc.

I had my doubts at first, but Motivosity has had a meaningful impact at my company.

When I heard from our HR team that we'd be rolling out Motivosity, I had some serious doubts about it. The idea of thanking coworkers with a $1 "tip" here and there seemed gimmicky at best and borderline insulting at worse. However, after using it for over 2 years, I'm happy to admit I was wrong. They've somehow built a platform that doesn't feel weird to use at all, and actually succeeds in remind you to give thanks. (My own rewards have basically funded my casual video game habit as well.)

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

Motivosity helps remind me to pause and take time to thank and recognize people on my team (and other teams) for going above and beyond. The rewards system is a clever way of gamifying recognition too.

Cons:

I'd have to get very nit-picky to identify any true cons with the platform, but I do wish there were more creative options for attachments when making a post. You're essentially limited to the stock GIF search it provides, which is typically lacking in options. You can bring in your own file attachments instead, but that's extra work for something that should be quick.

I appreciate being able to easily give a shout out to someone, no matter their location in our building. It really changes the way people act toward one another in the most positive way. Positivity has always been my approach in life and this easily facilitates that in the work place!

Nothing. It’s great….I really wouldn’t change a thing! I love that we can look up by school, by state, by person.
