See It in Action

Employee Shoutout deployed on real SharePoint intranets.

The Problem

Recognition happens in private. Someone does great work and the best they get is a quiet email from their manager. The rest of the organisation never sees it.

The result? Good work goes unnoticed. Culture feels transactional. Engagement surveys come back flat. People leave because they don't feel valued.

The Solution

Employee Shoutout gives your team a public, visible channel to celebrate each other - right on the intranet homepage where everyone can see it.

Submissions are stored in a SharePoint list, meaning you can add approval workflows, Power Automate notifications, and reporting without touching the code.

What You Get

Built for real organisations that want recognition without the overhead of a third-party platform.

SharePoint List Backend

All shoutouts are stored in a standard SharePoint list. You own the data. You control access. No external dependencies.

Approval Workflow Ready

Connect a Power Automate approval flow so shoutouts are reviewed before they go live. Keep it on-brand and appropriate.

Permission-Based Submission

Control who can submit shoutouts using standard SharePoint permissions. Open it to everyone or restrict to specific groups.

Configurable Display

Choose how many shoutouts to show, display order, and visual layout through the property pane.

User Profile Integration

Automatically pulls profile photos and names from your Microsoft 365 directory. No manual uploads needed.

Category Tags

Add recognition categories like "Teamwork", "Innovation", or "Customer Focus". Configurable via the SharePoint list.

Theme-Aware Styling

Respects your SharePoint site theme. Looks professional out of the box regardless of your brand colours.

Responsive Design

Works across desktop, tablet, and mobile. Submissions and viewing both work via the SharePoint mobile app.

Questions About Employee Shoutout

Can employees submit shoutouts without manager approval?

Yes - that's the default behaviour. Any user with permission to the SharePoint list can submit a shoutout and it appears immediately. If you want an approval step, you add a Power Automate flow to the list - the web part supports both modes.

Can I report on recognition data?

Since all data is stored in a SharePoint list, you can build Power BI reports, create list views, or export to Excel. Track who's being recognised, which categories are most popular, and recognition trends over time.

Does it replace tools like Bonusly or Kudos?

It depends on what you need. If you want peer-to-peer recognition, public visibility, and basic reporting without a per-user monthly fee, Employee Shoutout does the job. If you need points-based rewards, marketplace integrations, or gamification, a dedicated platform may be more suitable.

Can I customise the recognition categories?

Yes. Categories are managed via a column in the SharePoint list. Add, edit, or remove categories at any time without touching the web part configuration.
