We’re proud to announce that Applauz has once again been recognized as an Emotional Footprint Champion by SoftwareReviews for 2025, marking our second consecutive year earning this prestigious title.
In addition to this recognition, Applauz was also named a Top Rated Software Solution — an honour we’ve held for three years in a row. These accolades are based entirely on real-user feedback collected by SoftwareReviews, a division of Info-Tech Research Group, one of the leading research and advisory firms in the tech space.
What Makes the Emotional Footprint Award So Meaningful?
The Emotional Footprint report goes beyond standard product ratings. It highlights how a software provider makes its customers feel, scoring vendors on key emotional metrics like trustworthiness, client experience, product effectiveness, and responsiveness. In essence, this award reflects how deeply our product — and our people — resonate with the HR professionals and business leaders we serve.
We’re especially proud that Applauz earned top marks in categories like:
- Quality of Features
- Vendor Support
- Ease of Data Integration
- Availability and Quality of Training
- Usability and Intuitiveness
These results speak directly to our mission: to make work a happier, more human experience.
A Heartfelt Thank You
At Applauz, we believe that recognition is most powerful when it’s heartfelt — and we’re incredibly grateful to receive that same spirit of appreciation back from our users. These awards are a testament to the trust our clients place in us and the partnerships we work hard to build every day.
“At Applauz, we believe that employee appreciation should be more than a checkbox, it should be emotional, meaningful, and business-driving. That’s why we’re so proud to earn SoftwareReviews' Emotional Footprint Award, recognizing companies who build not just great products, but great relationships.”
