Amazing discounts, but sometimes overlooked!
A great range of discounts if you bother to spend time searching for many well-known brands. Added bonus of the EAP service is also great. A good all-rounder no matter what generation of workforce you have!
PROSThe discounts are absolutely brilliant, from a user perspective. I particularly liked the free weekly coffee with Caffe Nero and birthday box - what a great treat!
CONSIt would be great if there was a feature to auto-promote amongst employees via email. They do have a marketing pack you can download and send out, but uptake is reliant on internal communications.

Perkbox Review
Being in the charity sector, it feels like a positive way of helping our staff feel valued where our salaries aren't incredibly high. We've also just signed up with HiBob whom I'm aware you've just integrated with which I hope will really help our employees continue to engage even further with Perkbox. I've always found the staff to be really helpful and engaging and quick to resolve any issues or queries we might have.
PROSVery user friendly, straightforward to use. Colour schemes are bright and engaging and promotion materials are consistent with the brand. Some key benefits are used by majority of the staff team such as free coffees, phone insurance, cinema tickets etc. The access to the counselling telephone support has also been a huge asset to our team given the nature of the work.
CONSOverall it seems only small percentage of the benefits available are being accessed by the wider team. After chatting with the team a lot of them feel the percentage (often less than 10%) doesn't always make it feel worthwhile to them. There are consistently excellent perks, and then lots of others that don't really get used at all.

Perkbox Review
I find that Perkbox is a really effective way of reaching out to our employees, especially as we employ people from across the country and rarely meet with them face to face. It feels good to be able to share with them great offers that will hopefully benefit them. I also believe that the ease of use is perfect because we employ people of varying levels of technological experience.
PROSSince migrating to v2 of the Perkbox platform, I have found the ease of use to be even better than it was before. I usually use Perkbox for cinema tickets, and it is always so simple to get the codes and benefit from the awesome savings. As an admin, I'm also impressed by the improvements to the reporting tools, and the dashboard is always easy to navigate to find what I'm looking for.
CONSThere's nothing that I can pick up on that represents what I don't like about the software.

Slightly Limited
For a smaller size team looking for comprehensive engagement with our staff, we felt the platform was relatively limited and slightly missed the mark for what we were trying to achieve. For a bigger budget it might sit well alongside an additional engagement platform
PROSThe software was easy to use The free benefits offered were regularly used by our team The phone based medical consultations were an interesting feature
CONSThere was no flexibility if you wanted to go outside what Perkbox had to offer. The vast majority of the perks required my team to spend money (and receive a small discount), so they didn't feel they were getting really rewarded.

Perkbox is a fantastic reward & recognition platform!
Perkbox is already positively impacting employee engagement and boosting overall staff morale.
PROSPerkbox is very easy to use, the format is user-friendly and it is attractively designed. The perks available are good, and the recognition feature is fantastic.
CONSIt would be nice to have more control over the administration of the software, being able to export reports of rewards given would be helpful.

Best benefit ever!
It has helped our internal culture of recognition. People feel more valued nowadays. They can't wait to pass their probation in order to get the free access They love the platform, they share their experience and they think it has been a great idea!

CONSThe system is super useful, easy to use and eye-catching!

Great reward software
We sent out a survey asking if our employees would prefer Perkbox or another rewards provider and Perkbox won by a landslide. I have had great service from each account manager who has been assigned to the account, and answers to my queries are speedy and comprehensive.
PROSVariety of perks, easy of use, good account managers
CONSLack of access for company administrators, would be good to have a few more high value or free perks

A nice bonus for rewarding employees or freelancers - but better options available
Perkbox is a handy tool for rewarding employees and freelancers with a range of freebies, discounts and benefits and is fairly straightforward to use. However, I am not sure that I would recommend it, and instead opt for manually rewarding members of your team.
PROSPerkbox is a handy service that allows you to setup perks, rewards and bonuses for members of your team, be it employees or freelancers. It allows them to cash in various rewards, from free food and drinks and entertainment discounts, to medical aid and support. It is a nice bonus to give to members of your team, though entirely optional. Setting up the accounts and rewards is very straightforward and using Perkbox's interface is clean and intuitive.
CONSWhat I like least about Perkbox isn't necessarily about the software or processes themselves - it's more about the idea of it. Preferably, I wouldn't offer what is essentially a random box of discounts and freebies as part of working with me - I would rather offer cash bonuses or extra paid leave, which would be simpler and easier to manage.

A trusted partner for reward and recognition
Ease of use, value for money, wide choice of freebies and discounts, and the support provided pre and post-launch
CONSHonestly, nothing! It works well, the platform is very stable, it does exactly what it promises and has been very well received into my business.
