Top 20 employee engagement software platforms to power your organization

Employee engagement software platforms make big promises — and the best ones actually follow through. They help shape the behaviors that drive results while making work feel a little more human.

Bringing recognition, rewards, and real-time insights together in one platform makes it easier to boost productivity, retain top talent, and build a culture people want to stick with. And with 41% of employees citing engagement and culture as reasons for leaving, it’s more than a “nice to have” — it’s your retention strategy in action.

Of course, with so many platforms on the market, picking one can feel like a full-time job. Let’s find one that works for your people.

What is an employee engagement platform?

An employee engagement platform helps organizations build a more connected, motivated workforce. These tools make it easier to recognize great work, gather feedback, and reinforce company culture — all while boosting satisfaction, productivity, and retention. The goal? A workplace where people feel appreciated and aligned, and where engagement is measured and actively improved.

Top 20 employee engagement software platforms

With so many options out there, knowing where to start can be overwhelming. That’s why we’ve rounded up 20 standout platforms that are helping companies turn engagement into action — whether through recognition, rewards, feedback, or connection.

Let’s take a closer look.

1. Achievers

G2 rating: 4.7/5

Strengths:

Achievers is an employee engagement software platform built to embed recognition into the everyday, empowering employees to feel seen, heard, and appreciated at every stage of their journey. Backed by research from the Achievers Workforce Institute, the platform connects recognition to measurable outcomes — driving more than twice the recognition frequency and five times the impact on engagement, retention, and productivity compared to other vendors.

Built for global scale, Achievers combines the sophistication of enterprise HR software with the simplicity people actually want to use. It integrates seamlessly with workplace tools like Microsoft Teams, Slack, and Workday so recognition can happen in real time, in the flow of work.

With built-in analytics, ROI reporting, and always-on customer support, Achievers helps organizations connect culture with performance — giving every employee a consistent and meaningful experience that feels personal, equitable, and easy to sustain.

Best for:

Large, global organizations that want a complete engagement platform that builds culture, drives performance, and delivers measurable business impact at scale.

Key software features:

• Social (non-monetary) recognition
• Points-based (monetary) recognition
• Expansive rewards marketplace
• HRIS/HCM integration
• Pre-built workplace app integrations
• Open API integration
• Always-on chatbot for employee feedback
• Digital feedback toolkit of polls, quizzes, surveys, and forms
• Digital employee connection tools
• Custom celebration and service anniversary cards
• Mobile and desktop platforms

Weakness:

Achievers is built for global and complex organizations, so its advanced capabilities may exceed the needs of smaller teams.

“What I appreciate most about Achievers is their innovative approach to employee recognition and engagement. I find that their platform’s user-friendly design, along with its customizable recognition programs and insightful data analytics, truly helps create a positive workplace culture. It’s a great way to motivate employees and reinforce company values in a meaningful way.” — Bianca J., Team Leader, via G2

2. Workday

G2 rating: 4.1/5

Strengths:

Workday is an enterprise software platform that combines HR, finance, and planning tools in one system. It supports core functions such as payroll, benefits, workforce planning, and analytics, making it a solid choice for large organizations that want to centralize operations. While employee recognition and engagement are not its main focus, Workday includes tools that support the employee experience through personalized workflows and AI-driven insights.

Best for:

Enterprises seeking a single platform that manages HR, finance, and planning while providing tools to support employee experience and performance.

Key features:

• Unified HCM, payroll, and benefits management
• People analytics and workforce planning
• Talent development and learning tools
• Personalized employee journeys and task automation
• Continuous listening via Workday Peakon Employee Voice

Weakness:

The platform’s broad scope and complexity may be more than what smaller or recognition-focused teams are looking for.

“Workday did work well across a very large organization for needs like Payroll, Benefits Tracking, Benefits Enrollment, Performance Reviews and more. It’s best fit for very large or complex organizations, and organizationally, is pretty prohibitive from smaller/mid sized companies from truly adapting and taking advantage.” Nolan, Strategic Growth Manager, via Capterra

3. BambooHR

G2 rating: 4.4/5

Strengths:

BambooHR is a user-friendly HR platform built with small to mid-sized businesses in mind. It covers the full employee lifecycle — from hiring and onboarding to performance tracking and employee feedback — all in a single, streamlined system. Where it stands out is in its simplicity and approachability: it’s easy to get up and running, and it doesn’t require a large HR team to see value.

Best for:

Small to mid-sized organizations seeking an HR platform that supports core people management and engagement functions.

Key features:

• Applicant tracking and onboarding workflows
• Time-off tracking and employee self-service
• Performance management and employee feedback tools
• eNPS and well-being surveys with built-in analysis
• Centralized employee communications and engagement dashboards

Weakness:

While it’s strong on ease-of-use, its engagement capabilities may feel more lightweight compared to platforms built specifically around recognition.

“Looking ahead, I’m confident that BambooHR will continue to be an integral part of our HR operations, making even the smallest tasks easier. I appreciate how BambooHR is always open to feedback and consistently rolls out updates and improvements. Every time I receive a product update email, I’m excited because I know it means another fabulous enhancement is on the way—one that not only makes my job easier but also positively impacts the entire organization.” — Melissa E., Director of HR, via G2

4. Workleap

G2 rating: 4.4/5

Strengths:

Workleap is an employee experience platform that brings engagement, feedback, recognition, and performance tools together in one place. Built around Officevibe, it helps teams stay connected through customizable surveys, peer recognition cards, and guided 1-on-1s. Its recent performance management updates — including AI-powered review summaries — make it easier for managers to understand feedback and take action on employee input.

Best for:

Organizations looking for a platform that supports continuous feedback, recognition, and performance conversations.

Key features:

• Employee surveys and engagement insights
• Recognition and feedback tools
• Performance management and OKR tracking
• AI-generated performance summaries and feedback analysis
• Anonymous feedback channels with manager response guidance

Weakness:

Workleap’s focus on day-to-day engagement may not meet the advanced data and reporting needs of large or complex enterprises.

“Overall we have found this to be a really useful tool for analysing and capturing specific metrics about how the team is doing along with specific tools to make your team more productive. It facilitates difficult conversations with anonymous feedback which even in a small team where it is obvious who has made the comment is still useful.” — Jonathan, Director, via Capterra

---

5. SurveyMonkey

G2 rating: 4.4/5

Strengths:

SurveyMonkey helps organizations collect insights quickly with straightforward, easy-to-use survey tools. It supports a wide range of survey types, from engagement and satisfaction surveys to custom research projects. Teams can use expert-written templates or build their own forms and distribute them through multiple channels, including email and web links.

Organizations that want a flexible, user-friendly platform for collecting and analyzing feedback across teams or audiences.

Key features:

• Customizable surveys with built-in templates
• Real-time analytics and reporting
• Multiple distribution channels, including email and web
• Email, link, and embedded survey distribution
• Integrations with Google Sheets, Tableau, and more

Weakness:

While SurveyMonkey offers strong survey and analytics capabilities, it may not provide the deeper engagement or recognition features available in more comprehensive employee experience platforms.

“For a novice, this is an amazing resource, though it can become challenging if experience in modeling is low. Thus, you need both a higher-level paid solution as well as the knowledge (or perhaps support provided through the platform) to really build complex surveys that can generate accurate and deeply insightful results.” — Gabriel, Marketing and Advertising, via Software Advice

6. Vantage Circle

G2 rating: 4.7/5

Strengths:

Vantage Circle offers a large suite of employee engagement tools, combining rewards, recognition, wellness, and feedback into one AI-powered platform. With modules like Vantage Fit and Vantage Pulse, it enables HR teams to promote well-being, gather continuous insights, and reinforce positive behaviors at scale. The platform is built for global reach, supporting multiple languages and integrating with leading HRIS systems.

Key features:

• AI-powered recognition and behavioral reinforcement
• Wellness challenges through Vantage Fit
• Continuous feedback with Vantage Pulse
• Global rewards catalog with gifting and perks
• Real-time engagement analytics and dashboards

Weakness:

While each product is strong on its own, organizations may find that stitching together recognition, feedback, and follow-through requires more coordination, especially when compared to platforms with a fully unified experience.

“My experience with Vantage Circle has been overall excellent. The platform functions with exceptional user friendliness while maintaining flawless operational performance without any technical issues. The system enables users to convert their earned points into vouchers. easily which delivers actual benefits.” — IT Security and Risk Management review via Gartner

7. WorkTango

G2 rating: 4.7/5

Strengths:

WorkTango offers an integrated employee experience platform that combines recognition, rewards, and employee feedback with performance tools like goal tracking and surveys. Its AI-powered dashboards help managers identify trends, act on employee sentiment, and automate milestone celebrations — from service anniversaries to birthdays.

Best for:

Organizations looking for an integrated solution that combines recognition, feedback, and performance tools in a single platform.

Key features:

• Automated recognition and reward system
• Unlimited pulse and lifecycle surveys
• AI-powered sentiment and trend analysis
• Goal setting and performance enablement tools
• Role-based dashboards and recommended action plans

Weakness:

While the platform brings multiple capabilities together, its experience may feel more feature-led than culture-led for organizations seeking deeper emotional resonance and long-term behavior change.

“WorkTango makes it easy to recognize coworkers, as well as see who has been recognized within the organization. I like that it’s interactive and I can high-five any recognization. I use it multiple times per week to check my points and to see who has been recognized. The way it integrates with our company calendar to show birthdays and work anniversaries is also a plus.” — Blake B., Compliance Analyst, via G2

8. Lattice

G2 rating: 4.7/5

Strengths:

Lattice is an employee success platform that connects performance management, engagement, compensation, and analytics in one system. It helps organizations manage reviews, goal setting, and OKRs while providing tools for employee development, feedback, and recognition.

Best for:

Organizations that want to manage performance, engagement, and core HR processes in one platform.

• AI-powered analysis with suggested actions and key driver insights
• eNPS and lifecycle feedback tools from onboarding to exit
• Collaborative action planning to close the loop with managers
• Benchmarks and reporting decks to contextualize results and share with leadership

Weakness:

While Lattice offers a robust suite of tools, its focus leans more toward performance management than deep, behavior-shaping recognition.

“I appreciate Lattice’s intuitive user interface, ongoing AI-driven optimizations, and responsive support team. Their openness to product feedback demonstrates a strong customer focus. I’ve also found their webinars and published content on HR trends to be valuable resources that enable me to be a more strategic partner to the business.” — Eric S., Senior Manager, via G2

9. Matter

G2 rating: 4.6/5

Strengths:

Matter offers lightweight recognition and engagement tools that work directly within Slack and Microsoft Teams. It makes it easy for employees to give kudos, celebrate milestones, and share quick feedback without leaving their regular workflow. Customizable templates, automated celebrations, and built-in rewards help encourage everyday appreciation and connection among team members.

Best for:

Teams that want a simple, in-the-flow recognition tool to boost appreciation and engagement within Slack or Microsoft Teams.

Key features:

• Kudos and custom recognition templates built around company values
• Integrated rewards system with gift cards, donations, and custom perks
• Automated birthday and work anniversary celebrations
• Pulse and eNPS surveys to track engagement and belonging
• Slack and Microsoft Teams integration for in-the-flow recognition

Weakness:

While Matter makes peer-to-peer recognition seamless, it lacks the deeper insights, strategy support, and behavior-shaping capabilities of more robust platforms.

“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. 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.” —  Hilda L., Account Manager, via G2

---

10. Seismic

G2 rating: 4.7/5

Strengths:

Seismic is enablement platform designed to help sales and customer-facing teams improve productivity and performance.

Key features:

• AI-driven coaching and content guidance
• Enablement workflows for sales and marketing
• Real-time engagement tracking and analytics
• Centralized content management with Seismic LiveSend
• Personalized learning paths and onboarding programs

Weakness:

While not a traditional engagement or HR solution, its learning and readiness tools are valuable for go-to-market enablement — but less suited for company-wide culture, recognition, or employee experience.

“It is a simple platform to use and it makes it easy to create presentations that stand out from other companies’ presentations. It allows my team members to collaborate in real-time to create interactive content that is visually more attractive for our audience.” — Product Marketing review, via Gartner

---

11. Igloo

G2 rating: 4.2/5

Strengths:

Igloo Software, now part of Appspace, provides digital workplace and intranet solutions that help organizations improve communication, collaboration, and employee engagement.

• Integrated communication tools for updates, news, and collaboration
• Knowledge management with intelligent AI search

It offers a straight-forward approach to managing tasks and deliverables compared to other bloated services…It could do with some additional project milestone and deliverable management features such as individual task assignment and progress updates.” — Geoff, Media Designer, via Capterra

---

12. UKG

• Mobile access for scheduling, pay, and communication
• Culture and engagement tools powered by UKG Bryte AI
• Learning and development support for enterprise teams
• Compliance and workforce analytics for large-scale operations

Weakness:

While robust on the administrative side, UKG lacks the flexible recognition and engagement features found in more people-centric platforms.

“UKG Pro does exactly what we need it to do. We really like that it has worked well for us as an “all in one” solution that handles HR, Payroll, Learning, Performance & Talent Management, Compensation, Recruitment & Onboarding etc… While there’s no perfect “one size fits all” HRIS, UKG Pro checks a lot of the boxes for us and has been a great system to support our growth and scaling as a department.” — Simon, Senior V.P. People and Culture, via Capterra

While powerful for survey and performance workflows, Culture Amp doesn’t offer built-in recognition capabilities, which can limit how immediately behaviors are reinforced and celebrated.

“The Culture Amp tool allows us to easily and anonymously survey our entire employee base and make comparisons throughout the year with how engaged our employees are feeling. The tool also permits us to provide direct feedback to managers on how their employees are feeling.” — David Ferrier, Sr. LMS Admin, via Trust Radius

---

14. Motivosity

G2 rating: 4.7/5

Strengths:

Motivosity is a recognition and rewards platform built around the idea that gratitude fuels connection. It’s designed to help companies foster belonging through peer-to-peer shoutouts, leader-driven awards, and social engagement tools like Spaces and personality profiles.

G2 rating: 4.7/5

Strength:

• Customizable rewards including gift cards, swag, and Amazon catalog access
• Milestone automation for birthdays and anniversaries
• Nomination program for formal awards and values-based recognition
• Internal communications and announcement tools for centralized updates

Weakness:

While Nectar is flexible and user-friendly, it’s best suited to mid-sized organizations focused on daily engagement rather than enterprise-scale culture strategy.

“The Slack integration makes it seamless to give recognition in real time, and the system encourages a culture of appreciation across departments. Some rewards aren’t available in all regions, which can be limiting for global teams. There’s also room for improvement in analytics depth and message customization when sending recognition.” —  Izabela, Senior Manager, via Capterra

---

G2 rating: 4.8/5

Strengths:
