Terryberry Review, Pricing, Alternatives - 2023

Terryberry is a unique company in the employee rewards space: they have amassed more than a century of experience in the business of corporate recognition. Their historical focus was on producing custom awards, so their software solutions are backed by various manufacturing possibilities still managed in-house.

Almost no other employee recognition tools offer the amount of functionality that Terryberry packs into their platform. Their products include social recognition, a feedback and communication tool, a wellness app, employee service awards & custom jewelry, performance management, incentive programs, and a global rewards catalog.

We got an inside look at this during a 2023 video demo and it was tough to get a walkthrough of the many features within a single call. If you get a demo with Terryberry, we recommend coming prepared. Identify the specific workflows that are critical for you and ask for them to be covered in detail. 

Of course, it’s also worth looking into their custom awards offerings. Few companies can manufacture anything from a trophy to a belt buckle to your specification while also managing the software you’d use to identify the employees you’d like to recognize and reward.

Terryberry is used by over 40,000 customers, including Wyndham Destinations, Epsilon, General Motors, Hard Rock Casino, and Trilogy Health.

Terryberry’s pricing is scalable and varies according to your choice of subscription package. The good news is that you can opt for only certain parts of the platform and grow as you go. Their basic subscriptions start at $3 per award recipient, but to get a proper estimate, the way forward is to contact them.

Also worth mentioning is that they charge set-up fees, and an annual admin fee that’s based on employee headcount and the number of redemptions made on the reward platform.

Those best served by Terryberry are companies in the US and the UK— of any size and industry, but they do have global capabilities. It’s especially good for those with a substantial number of deskless employees for whom physical gifts are ideal.

Terryberry is also a good bet for companies who want  to add performance and wellness apps into the mix without adding an additional vendor to the ecosystem. All this being said, some small businesses might find the price point a bit high if on a tight budget.
