As part of a larger engagement effort, you may receive email or sms notifications from Recognize. You may receive these notifications when you receive a Recognition, when someone comments on a Recognition that was sent to you, or when another user comments on a Recognition that you commented on. Managers may also receive additional notifications for their teams to help with engagement.
Recognize allows you to change your personal notification preferences, so that you can be notified as much or as little as you'd like. This can be done within your User Profile in just a few easy steps.
