## Reviews

### "Great Tool for Employee Recognition" — 5.0/5

> **Alex** | *3 November 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that Guusto allows me to recognize the members of my team doing a great job. Organizations and higher-ups don't always have the best visibility on the day-to-day operations of a company, but those day-to-day operations are a huge determining factor in the success of the business. Guusto allows me to recognize my team members and ensure that they know that they are valued and appreciated.
> 
> **Cons**: I think the merchant selection could be improved. Having more options is always a good thing, and will allow for a more widespread appreciation of recognition. If the gift being received can only be redeemed at merchants that someone isn't very interested in, they might not appreciate the gift as much as if it were available to be redeemed somewhere they really enjoy.
> 
> Very positive. I love being able to recognize team members and make sure they know they're appreciated. It's nice to know I can provide a morale boost for my team members.

### "A fantastic experience with a wonderful product" — 5.0/5

> **Lori-Ann** | *29 January 2026* | Capital Markets | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The site is easy to use, there is a wide range of gift cards (sometimes making it tough to choose), it is easy to recognize my colleagues and takes no time to send recognition.
> 
> **Cons**: I would like to see the reporting tools be a little more robust, I find that the reports included in the base package to be lacking/
> 
> It has been great\! From the first meeting before implementation I felt as though the system would be easy to use and that I would be able to do most of what I need to do without asking for help.

### "Appreciation" — 5.0/5

> **Muhammad Ali** | *15 December 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Customer support and value for money &#10;Exceptional Ease of Use: The platform is incredibly intuitive and user-friendly, both for managers sending rewards and for employees redeeming them. Sending a gift takes no time at all, and recipients can claim their reward effortlessly, often without needing to create a separate account.
> 
> **Cons**: Detailed Analytics for Peer-to-Peer Recognition: Guusto does a great job of tracking gift redemptions and usage. However, having more granular, filterable data specifically on who is giving Shoutouts (peer-to-peer recognition) and which teams are most actively participating would be beneficial for measuring cultural impact.
> 
> Amazing to use.My overall experience with Guusto has been overwhelmingly positive, and it has proven to be a highly effective and modern solution for employee recognition. It successfully avoids the common pitfalls of traditional points-based systems by focusing on flexibility and ease of use.

> 
> **Pros**: Gusto is very easy to set up and use, it is also a great value. Customer support is very good, employees love it.
> 
> **Cons**: There really wasn;t much to dislike due to the amount of use my company had at the time, It was also easy to suspend it when we needed it.
> 
> Overall a very positive experience with ease of use, value, customer support was also very easy to contact and use.

The platform streamlines rewards, automates milestone celebrations, empowers managers with dedicated budgets, and facilitates peer-to-peer recognition programs. Unlike traditional recognition tools that primarily serve office employees, Guusto has been specifically developed to include frontline workers in industries such as healthcare, retail, hospitality, manufacturing, and financial services through multiple delivery methods including web, mobile app, QR codes, SMS, TV display, and print options.\n\nThe platform offers a flexible rewards system that moves beyond conventional plaques and pins, allowing recipients to choose from hundreds of different gift cards from around the world, branded company merchandise, charity donations, and custom rewards. Guusto implements a non-points-based system, eliminating the need to create accounts or pay for all employees to launch a program. Organizations can begin with a single-user account sending unlimited rewards, then progress to automating milestones and providing managers with budgets before eventually implementing a full peer-to-peer recognition program. The system features powerful budget controls that enable multiple programs to run in parallel with different budgets and administrators, while setting spending limits for shared cost centers.\n\nGuusto incorporates social impact into its core functionality through a partnership with the One Drop Foundation, donating one day of access to clean water for every gift sent through the platform. The system is designed to maximize recognition budgets by charging subscription fees only for users who can send recognition, such as managers, with no setup fees, hidden markups, or shipping costs. Unclaimed gifts are credited back to the organization, ensuring that the full value of recognition spending reaches employees. The platform also offers comprehensive analytics and reporting capabilities to track program effectiveness and measure the impact of recognition initiatives on employee engagement and retention.","image":"https://gdm-catalog-fmapi-prod.imgix.net/ProductScreenshot/3c0002b3-5f96-400d-b12a-70efb9abd139.png","url":"https://www.getapp.co.uk/software/127547/guusto","@type":"SoftwareApplication","@id":"https://www.getapp.co.uk/software/127547/guusto#software","applicationCategory":"BusinessApplication","publisher":{"@id":"https://www.getapp.co.uk/#organization"},"aggregateRating":{"@type":"AggregateRating","bestRating":5,"ratingCount":3399,"ratingValue":4.9},"offers":{"price":"4.8","@type":"Offer","priceCurrency":"USD"},"operatingSystem":"Cloud, Android, Platform ios, Platform ipad"},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"name":"Home","position":1,"item":"/","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Customer Loyalty Software","position":2,"item":"/directory/204/customer-loyalty/software","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Guusto","position":3,"item":"/software/127547/guusto","@type":"ListItem"}],"@id":"https://www.getapp.co.uk/software/127547/guusto#breadcrumblist"}]}
