I really appreciate how straightforward it is to use—there’s no confusion or unnecessary steps involved. The design feels intuitive, so even if you’re not especially tech-savvy, it’s still simple to navigate and get exactly what you need out of it. I also find that it saves me time, which is a huge plus. Overall, it’s reliable, efficient, and does exactly what it promises. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for something practical and easy to use.

### "Maybe it's me..." — 3.0/5

> **Richard** | *24 April 2019* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I certainly like the intention behind it, I will always vouch and support something that is designed to encourage reward and recognition within a working environment.
> 
> **Cons**: I'm not really a fan of the social media element it's taken with the social feed and email notifications, perhaps these can be turned off somewhere but they very quickly got annoying. In all honesty, it got to the point where I set up a rule in my outlook to move any emails from Qarrot to my deleted folder, even recognitions, because they started flooding my inbox with everyone recognising each other.&#10;&#10;My main criticism is possibly a bit harsh, as it's not really anything to do with the intention, design or even the implementation behind it all, but I don't think it has much staying power. What I mean specifically, is that things like Qarrot soon turn into a popularity contest or something that people do because it's expected of them or they're asked to do it by management.&#10;&#10;We are already seeing here at Honda that people are 'recognising' friends over genuine colleagues, where they're both giving 'jokey' awards for not getting points in their Fantasy Football League, or for doing their day to day job. You know, something that would have been the minimum expectation of them before Qarrot was about. People are now being rewarded/recognised for doing their normal Job it seems. ("Thanks for sending over those forms in a timely manner" - is something you might see and think, isn't that expected of you anyway?)&#10;&#10;More in the next box.
> 
> To reiterate, I know this doesn't really reflect on the designers and creators of Qarrot, so this isn't really a fair criticism and it's certainly not directed at the people behind it. As I said, I think it's a good idea - on paper. &#10;&#10;Unfortunately it's the average user that either treats it or  turns it into something it wasn't really meant for. Or better yet, they misuse the system in a way that's not really intended. (recognising friends for example).&#10;&#10;Overall, I personally do not use it given how quickly it became something to do "just because", if the average user used it properly and gave recognitions for people that do genuinely go above and beyond or what not, then I would follow suit. Because hard work does need reward in some way, especially for those that deserve it.&#10;&#10;Still a good idea however, just not with some of the mind-set people have on my floor, from my experience anyway.
