    Recognition and Reward Platform Facilitates Peer Appreciation in Remote Workplaces

    4.0

    Matter has been a great way to recognize and reward peers for their efforts at work. I love that the team is able to get rewards for excelling at their job. It gives the team a reason to go out of their way to help other employees and offers an outlet to express words of affirmation when saying it face to face is not always an option.

It's very easy to use in terms of giving feedback and then being able to use your matter coins to get gift cards. I love that it's customizable for the team and we can center the feedback around our core values. Being able to send private kudos is also beneficial for when someone really makes a difference in a more personal way. Another great thing is how easily integratabtle it is with slack which is what our team is using on a daily basis.
