It facilitates the evaluation of employees and has an excellent customer service

Reviewed on 19/06/2018

Pros

The most interesting thing about this tool is that because it is customizable, it has the kindness to be able to align the company's objectives with the offered solutions. It greatly facilitates the evaluation of employee performance, is ideal for human resources personnel, has excellent customer service

Cons

Your load sometimes becomes too slow which consumes a lot of resources of the computer, it also takes a while to locate in the pages that are needed because you have to press many clicks

Response from HR Performance Solutions

Thanks for your feedback about the application and so glad you are happy with it.
The customization of Performance Pro is a great feature and one that doesn't get recognized too often. The customizable nature of it means that as your process changes and grows, Performance Pro can change and grow with you.
Sounds like the load time might be causing you an issue. Performance Pro operates in a standard web browser so the load time isn't usually an issue. That being said, we know we have users with all sorts of connection speeds. Give us a call and let us see if we can diagnose that.
Thanks!

Makes Employee Evaluations Easy!

Overall, if you are doing performance evaluations, I haven’t used a solution that was any easier Performance Pro. I can’t recommend it enough.

Pros

Doing employee evaluations is never fun, whether you are using software, or plugging the info into a word doc. That being said, every so often software comes around that makes it a little easier. Performance Pro manages to do the impossible - it makes capturing info throughout the review period simple, tracking goals a breeze, and presenting the actual evaluation a snap. Plus it spell checks everything so you don’t have to play the “write in word and then copy and paste into the program you are using game.”

Cons

Sometimes, the interface can be a little clunky - finding certain features, if you don’t use them every day, can be a little challenging. But, in all fairness, this is a relatively minor quibble.

Response from HR Performance Solutions

Hi Michael,

Thanks so much for the great feedback! We are so happy to hear our software was able to make the impossible happen for you in the world of performance management.

If you are still having trouble finding certain features, please don't hesitate to connect with us using the Chat function within the software. We also have great Knowledge Base articles that can be accessed through the Support link.

All the Best,

Really poor UX

Reviewed on 14/05/2018

Pros

I like the fact that both parties (boss and subordinate) can sign off and comment as well as grade their own goals.

Cons

The software UX is terrible. It is not easy to follow or fin areas. It doesn't give you errors when you have something you haven't filled out, but instead is doesn't let you continue.

Response from HR Performance Solutions

Very Clunky

Reviewed on 14/12/2018

Pros

The overall concept of this product is great as it helps managers and employees track progress of goals throughout the year, etc.

Cons

This software is extremely clunky. My company has been using it for several years and every time I have to fill out new goals each year it takes me a good 30 min to figure out how to do it correctly and to notify my manager that he needs to go in and review my goals.

Response from HR Performance Solutions

Lower cost without losing required functionality compared to previous software used.

Pros

Ease of use and tools available to users. That includes responsive instant messaging with support staff and lots of resources in the help section. Step-by-step walkthroughs with pictures are very helpful.

Cons

Allowing appraisers to move an appraisal back for editing by the employee instead of just an admin being allowed would be helpful.

Cumbersome to use and not entirely user intuitive

Reviewed on 10/06/2018

Pros

You can review goals from last year and automatically copy them to the current year to be evaluated.

Cons

The UI could be better by making it more intuitive for the user. Esthetically it is not the most pleasing either; me it looks like a no frills basic interface. Room for improvement here.

Excellent customer service. Always helpful and eager to assist. Everyone is knowledgeable about the product and always kind. There are never any dumb questions.

Pros

Overall use of this software is good. Easy to navigate.

Cons

. I have been on a conference call regarding the performance application and would love to be able to set up more than 1 appraisal at time for an employee. When we have an employee promote the current manager has to complete the review then update all information and set up a second review for the promoted position. I then have to average the totals for a final score. This is very time consuming.

Performance Pro is simple to use and it a great tool for all staff - management to frontline staff. We encourage all staff to use the program for goal setting and tracking as well as performance tracking. The ease of keeping notes and tracking performance is one of the best features. The notification system is a great tool when it comes to being reminded of performance evaluations that need to be completed.

Pros

All staff can use it with ease. Goals are easy to set up and track. Editing notes is simple and we really like the function to be able to share notes with others.

Cons

None at this time.

This is an adaptable product to all levels of employee engagement and levels of management from clerical and teller to senior management and even the CEO. It provides a consistent palette on which to measure and manage performance expectations and results. When this product is combined with a great administration it eliminates the often acrimonious discussions about fairness and who gets what. It can be a bit confusing to use at first, but with training and support, it quickly becomes easy to use.

Pros

This product makes entering review consistent and easy. It is enjoyable talking to employees about actual goals since entering and reporting on their accomplishment those goals is so easy. The clarity that this product provides for the individual being evaluated to better understand how they actually did and the inclusion of factors that fairly present the personal qualities needed in various senior management. This is a great product to use for any size company that is looking for a performance review software. Great customer service!

I am satisfied. I am able to pull up past evals that were processed through Performance Pro and save these docs as PDF or view on the site.

Pros

As you learn how to navigate you can jump between employees to review appraisals or move to employee dashboard and view your own appraisal.

Cons

The navigation is sometimes confusing when looking for a previous appraisal or trying to get back to the appraisal you were working on.

I have only used the product for about a year but find it very easy to use and fit the needs of our small credit union. The customer service has been top notch since the very beginning. There has never been a time that my question or issue has not been resolved.

Pros

Everything is very stream lined and easy to navigate. I also like that we can customize the product to fit with our credit union culture and lingo.

Cons

I would like to be able to see a history on the employee data screen. So if someone changed positions in between an appraisal cycle we could see the change and track it better.

Overall very good program. Has a few enhancements needed to make it even better. Its a good solution for daily staff performance systems.

Pros

Accessibility and manageability. Great features. Good upgrades.

Cons

Small format when printing performance documents is horrible. Building forms is limited and still chunky. Would be nice to be able to attach documents (links) to actual performance forms instead of having to go to different area and find it. Routing process is still difficult. Having multiple appraisers is also difficult.

Pros

Allows for performance management to truly be a collaborative process between employee and manager. Also, provides for a meaningful way to track goals and job competencies for a full performance picture. Allows employees to see their profile and related uploaded documents at any time. Lastly, the ability to create 'Forms' for internal use is awesome - sends, collects signatures, and stores for historical reference.

Cons

Would love to eventually see Compease and Performance Pro fully merged so just one sign-on. Right now each have a separate application - if combined, or at least the ability to move from one to another embedded in the application, that would be wonderful!
