Cost example: A 100-person company would pay $0-$50/month with Propsly vs. $300-500/month with HeyTaco.
Propsly: Monthly allocation of 200 props points. Give any amount (1-200) per recognition. Points reset monthly, creating scarcity that makes each recognition meaningful.
HeyTaco: Daily allowance of 5 tacos. Resets every day, encouraging daily recognition habits. Some find the daily limit restrictive.
Propsly: Slack-only. Designed specifically for teams that live in Slack, with deep native integration.
HeyTaco: Supports Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Google Chat. Better multi-platform coverage for distributed teams.
Propsly: Professional "props" terminology. Clean, modern interface that feels at home in any workplace.
HeyTaco: Fun taco theme with playful branding. Memorable and engaging, though may not fit all corporate cultures.
Propsly: Gift card automation available on Pro tier. Focus is primarily on intrinsic recognition value.
HeyTaco: Customizable rewards store available on all paid tiers. Instant gift card delivery on Premium.
It depends on your team's culture. Daily allowances (HeyTaco) encourage consistent daily recognition but can feel limiting. Monthly allocations (Propsly) provide more flexibility for larger recognitions and special occasions, while still creating scarcity that makes recognition meaningful.
Yes! Propsly's free tier includes unlimited users, full recognition features, and public leaderboards forever. No time limit, no user cap. The optional Pro tier ($50/month flat) adds advanced analytics and reward automation.
Absolutely! Simply install Propsly to your Slack workspace and start fresh. Since recognition tools focus on ongoing appreciation rather than historical data, your team can begin using Propsly immediately.
Currently, Propsly is Slack-only. If your team uses multiple platforms, HeyTaco's multi-platform support might be a better fit. However, for Slack-first teams, Propsly offers a deeper, more native integration.
