November 16, 2021

Pros

We use for survey and to collect our employees opinion, tough, and experience while working on our organization. They can sent it while their identity is fully anonymous and thus resulting everyone can voicing their opinion freely.

Cons

I have no problem that i face while working with this platform. All of the data that are sent by our employees are safely stored on the platform, and the report for the survey forms is very detailed.

### "Decent experience with a good range of features"

March 16, 2018

3.0

Pros

It is nice to have a performance management and a rewards and recognition system all in one platform. The Outlook plugin is nice too.

Cons

It would be nice to have some additional export functionality and some more flexibility. It is a pretty modern platform but still pretty narrowly focused into their way of doing things.

### " WorkTango makes the workplace a better place "

September 25, 2025

5.0

My experience has been amazing. I have been enjoying the sweet messages alongside with the perks of being able to buy things i want for doing a good job and being recognized by teammates for it. I LOVE IT

Pros

The opportunity to celebrate others achievements/ birthdays and anniversaries and hope to make their day better :)

Cons

I don't particularly dislike anything about it. I just wish i had more points to send to teammates and maybe to be able to cash it out directly to your bank account.

### "Wonderful Rewards & Recognition Platform!"

July 25, 2025

5.0

support is always responsive and able to to help with a quick resolution of anything that arises. I have been using WorkTango as an admin and end user for 3+ years now and it is a core component of our rewards and recognition program.

Pros

is easy to use for both admin and the end user. It allows us to streamline a rewards and recognition platform across the business - and across all four countries of which we have operations in. The ability to cash in Points Earned for a variety of gift cards and/or merchandise makes is appealing to all using.

Cons

As an admin, it would be beneficial to streamline the reports available within the dashboards for both admin and the managers on user side.

### "Go WorkTango! "

September 26, 2025

5.0

I use it every day- I get my rewards for walking in the morning, filling up my water cup and for getting up to stretch and take frequent breaks from sitting all day. I also use the "high five" option so that I can share the love and give away some points!!

Pros

I love how you can give a coworker kudos anytime!! And as an added bonus you can also score a few extra points for yourself!!! It is a great morale booster for all! I have actually saved enough to pay for half of laptop using gift card I earned!

Cons

I have to be honest in that there isn't anything that Work Tango can change about it - it works great and I have nothing to mention in the con column! I would love to be able to have more points to give away

### "Boosting Engagement and Recognition"

September 25, 2025

5.0

My overall experience with has been very positive. It effectively motivates staff, fosters a culture of recognition, and makes rewarding contributions simple and visible. The variety of rewards and the way it highlights great work adds an extra incentive for staff, making it a valuable tool for building engagement and team morale.

Pros

is a fantastic tool for incentivizing performance and fostering a positive work environment. It effectively highlights and recognizes staff for their excellent contributions; an extra carrot at the end of the stick for a hard day’s work, with a wide variety of rewards to redeem. Truly valuable for any team.

Cons

Because points expire at the end of the quarter, it often turns into a quarter-end bonanza with staff rewarding each other.If there were more incentives for staff to give out points throughout the year that would help mitigate this.

### "Inredible experience"

September 25, 2025

5.0

It seems like a pretty good tool to improve recognition culture, make people feel seen and valued, and to measure and listen to what employees think. It’s not perfect, especially if your company needs very specialized reports or if you’re looking for ultra-fast rewards, but in my experience, the benefits far outweigh the drawbacks

Pros

I really like how easy it is to send shout-outs to coworkers, whether it’s for something small or an important achievement. It creates an environment where people feel valued because it’s public, everyone can see what you’re recognizing.

Cons

They should make rewards more accessible (fewer points required, more variety of prizes). Sometimes there are too many notifications or emails, which makes it a bit noisy. Also, they give very few points to distribute, and often it’s not enough to spread out over three months.

### "Points That Actually Pay Off - My WorkTango Experience"

September 25, 2025

5.0

makes recognition meaningful by letting us earn points for real activities, which we can easily redeem for rewards like products or cash—making it much more engaging than other platforms. Instead of just giving kudos, WorkTango motivates our team to participate and celebrate each other's wins all year long

Pros

I love how gives us actual activities we can complete throughout the year, and the points system is straightforward - I've already exchanged mine for some cool products and even cash, which makes it way more engaging than other platforms I've used.

Cons

I like how is right now. And honestly can't think of anything I dislike about it right now.

### "A user-friendly platform that boosts engagement, recognition, and workplace culture"

September 29, 2025

5.0

Overall, my experience with has been very positive. The platform makes it easy to gather feedback, recognize team members, and stay connected to the overall employee experience. I appreciated how intuitive it was to use and how it encouraged engagement and recognition across teams. While there are some areas that could be improved, such as offering more advanced customization and smoother integrations, the overall impact on culture and communication was very strong. It’s a tool I found valuable and would recommend

Pros

I really liked ’s focus on employee engagement and feedback. The platform makes it easy for employees to feel heard, which I think is essential for a healthy workplace.

Cons

The platform had so many features that it could feel overwhelming at first. A more guided onboarding experience would help new users

### "PROPS Review -Highly Recommended"

September 29, 2025

5.0

I love that it helps give incentive to work harder and great way to thank colleagues for coverage while out on PTO

Pros

Able to reward colleagues with points for achievements and for covering. It also helps display talents

Cons

There are a limited number of points that we are able to give away to coworkers; great for a small team but larger teams should have more points to give a away.

### "Worktango contributes to a positive workplace"

December 28, 2025

4.0

My experience was overall positive. This would likely be a 5 star review if not for the "use it or lose it" points.

Pros

There is a very good and diverse selection of rewards to choose from in this easy to use platform. Definitely adds to the overall positivity of the work environment!

Cons

The biggest, and potentially the only real, complaint about is the way you lose points on a quarterly basis if you do not use them.

### "Positive Way to Stay Connected to Coworkers "

February 28, 2025

4.0

my job started using to keep our in office and remote employees connected. I loved that I could thank a coworker for helping me or just recognize a job well done by sending a message and some points that turn into money to use towards rewards like gift cards. We are staying connected in a positive way with the help of WorkTango. I feel as if it is good for company morale as well.

Pros

This is a great way for a company with a mix of in office and remotes employees to stay connected.

Cons

I wish the points were worth more. It can take some time to get enough to redeem.

Easy to use and a great way to be able to give employees away of being recognized for their great work.
