How to read the Emotional Footprint
The Net Emotional Footprint measures high-level user sentiment towards particular product offerings. It aggregates emotional response ratings for various dimensions of the vendor-client relationship and product effectiveness, creating a powerful indicator of overall user feeling toward the vendor and product.
While purchasing decisions shouldn't be based on emotion, it's valuable to know what kind of emotional response the vendor you're considering elicits from their users.

Great recognition and encouragement platform

What differentiates Kudos from other similar products?
If I want to send a virtual high five, fist bump, or thank you shout out to a coworker or someone else at work, this is the finest tool I've used so far. It's wonderful and simple to use, and you can accumulate points toward incentives. Well, it's incredible that there are actually monetary prizes involved. It's not a lot, but it all adds up.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Variety in available choices is a plus. Like being able to publicly applaud my fellow social media users. Kudos is a great tool for executives and coworkers to publicly show appreciation for employees. Staff members can redeem their Kudos points for any gift card of their choosing. You can pick from a wide variety of possibilities.
What do you dislike most about this product?
One set of employees left nearly useless comments to increase their ratings and win prizes, demonstrating how quickly it devolved into a popularity game.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
From the perspective of upper management, a simple token of appreciation accompanied by some encouraging words will always stimulate workers to increase their output and make them feel valued. Individuals are often hesitant to publicly convey their gratitude, so Kudos is an excellent alternative.
Pros
- Reliable
- Effective Service
- Saves Time
- Fair
