The basic skills required are the ability to log on to a computer and browse the Internet. Some instruction and training may be needed for those who have never used a computer or the Internet. Employees record their accomplishments by logging on to their personal account and providing the system with the necessary information. Depending on the type of behavior being reported, points are awarded either immediately or after approval. Approvals are either automatically administered based on data provided to Snowfly or manually administered by the employee's immediate supervisor.
Employees can redeem points for a variety of rewards.
The rewards can range from tangible items in customized catalogs to non-tangibles such as time off or reserved parking spaces. The differing value of these rewards allows employees the option of frequently redeeming points for smaller rewards or saving up for larger ones. A critical feature of Snowfly is that it provides employees with enough options that everybody will be able to find something they value. Snowfly was developed to meet the needs of any organization, regardless of its size or complexity. To guarantee relevance at all levels, behaviors are defined for each separately.
