We’re excited to bring you the latest updates from Xoxoday Empuls, designed to enrich your experience and drive better engagement across your organization.
Here's what's new:
1.Introducing Reward Governance
Peer recognition is a powerful engagement tool, but without the right safeguards, it can lead to issues like reward swapping, repeated nominations, and favoritism.
The new Reward Governance feature, available as part of the Rewards Program, helps you:
Prevent reward exchanges: Stop employees from rewarding each other back and forth within the same cycle.
Limit repeated nominations: Avoid over-recognition of the same individuals to encourage broader participation.
Balance reward distribution: Ensure rewards are distributed fairly across the organization.
Each rule comes with flexible enforcement options: Audit, Advisory, or Restricted, so you can choose the level of control that fits your company’s needs.
2. Redesigned Home Page on MS Teams
The Xoxoday Empuls home page on Microsoft Teams has a fresh new look.
We’ve redesigned the Recognize and Redeem section to make recognition and reward redemption more intuitive, right within Teams. Improved navigation makes it easier for users to act quickly and find what they need.
3. Transfer Nominations for Exited Employees
Don’t let pending nominations get stuck when someone leaves. You can now transfer their nominations to another user, like their manager or a super admin, so the approval process keeps moving smoothly.
4. Monthly Usage Summary for Managers
Managers now get a clear monthly snapshot of team engagement on Empuls.
Key stats include:
Team members recognized and awards received
Awards and core values given by the manager
Gift and redemption activity
Engagement metrics like active users, posts, reactions, and celebrations
This summary helps managers stay connected and celebrate their team’s impact.
5. Micro-Engagement Workflow in Microsoft Teams
Boost team connection and recognition without leaving Teams. With new Adaptive Cards, you can now:
Congratulate colleagues instantly
Say Thanks when appreciated
Acknowledge tagged posts
These interactions sync automatically with the Xoxoday Empuls web platform to keep recognition flowing across your workspace.
6. Home Page Customization Options
Admins can choose from three different home page layouts to better align with your company’s culture and communication style. Each layout offers a unique way to showcase key information and engage employees.
Switching between layouts takes just a click and gives you the flexibility to adapt as your needs evolve.
7. More categories launched on Xoxoday Empuls marketplace
