Why companies add Matter to Teams
Bring recognition to where you already work.

How Employee Recognition Works in Microsoft Teams

Instead of asking employees to switch tools, let alone remember another login and password, Matter makes recognition easier to adopt in the channels where teams already communicate. Recognition, rewards, and surveys can all happen inside Microsoft Teams, which helps make participation more visible, consistent, and natural.

Matter can be installed Matter in Microsoft Teams channel, and Microsoft Teams admins can also pin the Matter app for all users on the app sidebar in Microsoft Teams. Both of these make it easy for the entire organization to access and use. Matter admins can customize the Matter app home in Microsoft Teams to reflect company branding.
