For more information, check out our help article: Exploring the Manager Portal.

     

    Slack Integration

To learn more about how the Slack Integration can be added for your company, see our article: Recognize Slack Integration

     

    Mobile App User Experience Enhancements

     

     

    Your users may have also noticed some cool new updates to the flow for sending recognition on mobile! It’s now much more intuitive, allowing users to first choose who they are recognizing, and then provide details for the recognition. To check out the changes firsthand, download our mobile app, or check out the Mobile section in our article: How to Send a Recognition.

     

    Announcement Enhancements

  • Managed Catalogs and Deferred Rewards

    November 17, 2023

    Managed Catalogs

     

     

    Managed Catalogs enable and add all available Rewards for a chosen currency automatically, with point variants already pre-configured. This takes the heavy lifting off of the business owners to create catalogs themselves and can be especially helpful in cases where you are working with multiple currencies where Rewards setup is more complex. Managed Catalogs is now available for our Mid-Market package and above customers! Click here for more information on how Managed Catalogs work.

     

    Deferred Rewards

     

     

    Mid-Market package and above customers can also now access additional third-party Provider-Fulfilled Rewards that have a fulfillment wait time, meaning they are not delivered instantly. Any Reward with a fulfillment wait time will be labeled within your catalogs as shown above, and any Rewards that are instant will be marked as such. Users can click on a Reward from within the catalog to view more specific details for a Reward’s fulfillment timeframe within the terms and conditions for the Reward. Click here for more information on Rewards Fulfillment.

    https://cms-assets.recognizeapp.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/01155723/Screenshot-2023-06-01-at-10.45.11.jpg

    Recognize’s custom role permissions system has been serving customers for years. It allows companies to assign tasks, badges, rewards, and more to specific staff members. The only problem is how to create the custom roles. This isn’t that hard for companies that use Workday, as they can set up custom role syncing with the sFTP spreadsheet user sync. For everyone else, it is honestly a pain.

    No longer! Recognize has launched dynamic roles for Mid-Market and Enterprise customers. Now direct report manager, job title, country, department, and more can be automatically pulled as roles! This is massive as now you can assign a job title to a badge.

    Find it in the Roles section of the Company Admin.

    The page that people visit when receiving an email notification or when clicking on a Recognition has received its first major update in five years. The meta-information on consolidated, the conversation is made to be front and center, and more options have been included.

    Badges

    Click on a badge and it now takes you to a page showing you all the recognitions just for that badge. The recipients include their avatar and if it is to one person the name is larger.

    Comments

    Comments are now centered and right below the Recognition message to make starting a conversation more accessible.

    Recipients

    If there are several recipients, the recipient box has a max height and will allow the user to scroll through. This way the recognition message isn’t lost below the recipients.

    Teams

    Teams are now listed on the side panel, along with other controls. They are clickable to visit the team page.
