What do you like best about Matter?

what makes it incredibly easy to recognize and appreciate team members in a genuine and consistent way. the team integration is seamless, so giving kudos feels like a natural part of out daily communication. its helped foster a positive team culture where people feel seen and valued. We set up even automated celebrations for birthdays but also track engagement with analytics. is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Matter?

one thing I'd like to see improved is the customization of reward options - especially for global teams. the current catalog feels a bit limited in some regions. also, setting up certain automation could be more intuitive at first because it takes a bit of time to understand all the available features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Matter solving and how is that benefiting you?

before using matter, recognition in our time was kind of hit or miss people were doing great work, but it was not always acknowledged. since we started using matter, giving kudos has become part of our regular routine. and it is has med a real difference Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Matter?

Matter makes it incredibly easy to recognize and appreciate teammates. I love the coin system — it’s a fun and meaningful way to thank colleagues for their hard work. The integration with Slack is seamless; it only takes a few clicks to send kudos, which makes it feel natural to use regularly. Overall, the user experience is clean and intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Matter?

One improvement I'd love to see is a filter or tracker for kudos sent each week. Since there's a limited number of coins, it can be hard to remember who I’ve already recognized. Currently, I have to scroll back through the week’s messages to double-check, which can be a bit time-consuming. A simple filter to view my kudos history would make the platform even more user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Matter solving and how is that benefiting you?

Matter helps me regularly kudos my teammates and show appreciation, which might otherwise get lost in the day-to-day. It’s a lightweight yet impactful way to celebrate each other's efforts and contributions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Matter?

1. Easy to use - We have a special channel in slack called #kudos, and every Friday, we bang out quick kudos to the team on whatever we have delivered.

2. Feedback friday reminder is actually quite helpful. There are a couple of kudos every friday so used quite a bit.

3. Super easy to setup and integrate in Slack, and no cost as well. We have not looked back or faced any issues since we set it up the first 3 years ago.

4. The gifs are amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Matter?

1. I don't think we ever grasped the concept and point of coins. I think education for that, and translating into actual rewards is not something that's clearly communicated. Also, the rewards feel US centric. Our team is across multiple continents.

2. Never really gotten to see the analytics, and whenever I have seen it, they seem surface level.

3. Would be nice if the rewards were somehow integrated in the experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Matter solving and how is that benefiting you?

1. Recognition gets lost in busy channels. We should celebrate all our wins, no matter how small, to keep the morale up.

2. People generally forget to give feedback or say thanks, especially if they are just working alongside rather than a top-down relationship.

3. Sometimes, public recognition is also important to give everyone and leadership a view in what some employee is doing and achieving. Some folks just don't have the ability to showcase their work and impact and might need some help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Matter?

We've been using MatterApp as part of our internal team engagement and recognition strategy, and it's proven to be a simple yet powerful tool to promote a culture of appreciation and continuous feedback.

The integration with Slack is seamless and intuitive — team members can give kudos or constructive feedback in real time without disrupting their workflow. The use of badges and emojis adds a fun, gamified layer that encourages even the quieter team members to participate actively.

Its Ease of implementation, and good customer support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Matter?

Occasionally, the notifications can be a bit overwhelming in larger teams — a better customization of frequency would enhance the experience.

A mobile-first UX would make this even more accessible for teams working on the go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Matter solving and how is that benefiting you?

Matter is solving three core challenges for us:

Lack of consistent peer recognition

Before Matter, recognition was informal and sporadic. With its Slack integration, peer-to-peer appreciation is now embedded into our daily workflow, making recognition timely, visible, and more meaningful.

Low visibility into team contributions

Especially in cross-functional or remote teams, it’s easy for contributions to go unnoticed. Matter helps surface efforts that don’t always make it into performance reviews, improving morale and giving managers a more holistic view of team dynamics.

Gaps in feedback culture

Matter fosters a culture of continuous, lightweight feedback, helping individuals grow without waiting for quarterly reviews. This supports personal development and promotes psychological safety in the workplace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Matter?

Matter is incredibly easy to use and has a clean, intuitive interface that makes giving and receiving feedback simple and enjoyable. I especially appreciate how it encourages a culture of recognition and continuous improvement within teams. The integration with Slack makes it even more efficient for our daily workflow, and the customizable feedback templates are a huge plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Matter?

One downside is that the reporting features could be more robust. While it gives some visibility into feedback trends, I would like to see more advanced analytics and data export options for better tracking and performance evaluation. Occasionally, some users find the notifications overwhelming if not properly configured. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Matter solving and how is that benefiting you?

Matter is helping us address the lack of structured, timely feedback in our organization. Before using it, team members often felt unsure about their performance or recognition. Now, feedback is more frequent, specific, and constructive, which has led to improved morale and better communication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Matter?

I like the concept of sending kudos to co-workers as a recognition of their extraordinary achievements. It creates a stronger bond between me and my co-workers and fosters my workplace relationships. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Matter?

Nothing I can think of at this moment. But I'd say it would be even more ideal to see more retailers in Canada available for gift card redemption. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Matter solving and how is that benefiting you?

I work in an agency which allows employees to go fully remote, so for some of the co-workers that I am not working closely with, I only see them once to twice a year. I sometimes feel distant to most of the people in the company as my role doesn't require me to work with many teams. However, with Matter, I am given the opportunity to get in touch with co-workers that I am not close with by sending kudos to express my appreciation on their work, or celebrate their work anniversary or birthday. It helps me rebuild the connection with co-workers that we used to have when working on-site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Matter?

I love how seamlessly Matter integrates with Slack. Giving kudos is quick, fun, and actually encourages consistent recognition within the team. The customizable Feedback Friday reminders are a brilliant touch — they make recognition a habit rather than a chore. Also, the automatic reward delivery system (gift cards, donations, etc.) saves so much time and adds real value to employee shoutouts. It’s perfect for building culture in a remote or hybrid team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Matter?

The analytics dashboard could be a bit more detailed, especially when trying to track long-term engagement trends or value alignment. Also, while the customization options are solid, I’d love even more flexibility around branding and survey logic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Matter solving and how is that benefiting you?

Matter helps us keep our team connected and appreciated — especially in a remote environment where spontaneous recognition is harder to come by. It encourages a culture of gratitude and alignment with our company values. The automatic reward system and reminders have taken the pressure off managers to manually track and manage recognition. Plus, with the built-in surveys, we’re getting more consistent feedback and higher response rates than ever before, which helps us improve employee engagement and satisfaction.

Honestly, there isn’t really anything I dislike about the tool-it simply works as intended and fits perfectly into our workflow Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Matter solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a Project Manager, Matter solves the challenge of giving regular, meaningful feedback by integrating seamlessly with Slack, making recognition part of our daily workflow.

What do you like best about Matter?

Matter has helped with recognition at scale. It is an improved way for us to acknowledge each other by sending kudos and rewards. The features are great and easy to use. It doesn't interfere with my work, it has improved it. Receiving feedback during projects has changed the way we communicate at work and the motivation to perform better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Matter?

Matter is a new tool in our office and I don't have anything negative to share at this time, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Matter solving and how is that benefiting you?

I think that our biggest problem as a company was how we communicated and how we recognized each other for the things that we do. Working in a large company, it is hard to find a way to really communicate and share how thankful we are for the work that has been done. Matter has made a huge shift in communication and recognition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
