15Five

Amazing Insight

Comentários: Emplify's customer support is top-notch. They are very responsive to any questions or requests for help. I have very much enjoyed partnering with Emplify on our company's journey to improve our employee engagement!

Vantagens:

Using Emplify has changed our company for the better. We are now able, thanks to Emplify, to track detailed data on how our associates are feeling about their work. We then use this data to help improve the work experience for all of our associates, particularly teams who need extra help. Emplify enables us to put data around something that leaders may feel, but can't really identify. Taking these "feelings" and putting them into actionable data, which is something Emplify helps with significantly via the engagement dashboard, has been huge for our company. The dashboard that displays data is very easy to use and understand and contains a lot of meaningful visual elements that are easy to drop into presentations for C-level and board members. Emplify's software is extremely easy to use from an admin perspective, and the survey process is very easy and painless for associates. It takes 5-6 minutes 4 times each year. The data we get from that small investment of associate time is invaluable. We have decreased regrettable turnover and have seen an increase in topline revenue since using the Emplify product.

Desvantagens:

I struggle to come up with things that I dislike about Emplify. It is incredibly easy to use and has made a huge difference for our company.

You Don't Know You Need It. But You Do.

Comentários: 15Five has been a benefit to the culture of our team and leadership development. However, because of the cost, we frequently find ourselves asking if it is still worth it.

Vantagens:

15Five is a compelling tool that bundles individual performance measurement assessment with team-wide positive feedback. It makes it easier to build healthy rhythms and checkpoints into the culture of your team.

Desvantagens:

15Five is on the expensive side, especially when you consider how many organizations are now repurposing free or low-cost project management software to measure employee performance.

Unleashing the Power of 15five

Comentários: 15Five is a powerful and effective performance management tool that can streamline the evaluation process and provide valuable insights into employee performance. However, its high cost and limited integration capabilities may make it less suitable for some organizations.

Vantagens:

The software has a user-friendly interface that makes it easy to set up and manage performance evaluations.It provides real-time data and insights into employee performance, allowing managers to make informed decisions about employee development.The software is highly customizable and can be adapted to meet the specific needs of different organizations.It encourages collaboration between employees and managers, promoting open communication and continuous feedback.

Desvantagens:

There is a learning curve involved in getting the most out of the software, and it may take some time to master all of its features.The software may not integrate with other tools that organizations are already using, making it less convenient for some users.It is a premium software and may not be affordable for smaller organizations or businesses with limited budgets.

Proven to help improve team performance and growth at 3 companies!

Comentários: My first experience was as a user and I remember getting the invitation to join and I was like, "Great, another HR tool." Once I got in there and learned about the 15Five mantra, I immediately loved it and started to take over ownership and expanding it throughout every organization I have worked at since. As in my Pros section, I have seen every team that adopts 15Five grow from the individual and up.

Vantagens:

The "annual review" and the like are very invaluable to the individual and become an exercise in repetition. 15Five takes what that same concept tries to accomplish and incorporates it into smaller, admin defined spans. With each [bi]weekly 15Five, the Team can focus on their priorities and align them with the overarching objectives/goals (individual, department, and/or company-wide). As a result, the growth path is managed at early stages and progress is recorded throughout the process to document each team member. I have used 15Five at 3 companies and have seen my teams improve within a short period each time. It does take effort but once it becomes the norm, progress just starts running!

Desvantagens:

There are always going to be features that are wanted and/or desired in any software. 15Five has a lot right out of the gate with a lot of the features I would have liked to see now in production and currently getting worked into my setup. I honestly don't have anything negative regarding 15Five as a software nor as a company.

Easiest solution for employee feedback

Vantagens:

The system of 15Five encourages users to give high fives to colleagues, which allows a positive atmosphere around employees & managers.

Desvantagens:

It's somewhat irritating to me the way that we needed to define up our objectives in the event that the objectives were connected to a bigger objective for my chief or my supervisor's chief.

High for 15Five

Comentários: We hope that this tool will help supervisors/managers take the time to schedule time with employees. This tool allows employees to put ideas/issues on weekly rather than when they have time to talk to their superior. It also makes employees accountable if they don't bring up issues are participate.

Vantagens:

That it is so easy to use and great way to stay connected with your employees and your boss. It keeps all the conversations in a central location! I just started using it but really like the 1:1 tool, as both of you can enter information and action items.

Desvantagens:

So far I like everything, with anything it takes time to get familiar with the system.

A Great Tool!

Comentários: Good, I'm enjoying using the platform and find it to be a useful tool.

Vantagens:

Keeps us on the same page. Keeps us focused on our goals. Provides clarity and fosters collaboration. It's on outlet for staff's voice to be heard and recognize colleagues for good work.

Desvantagens:

No specific area for career or personal development goals.

15five - its a great line manager tool

Comentários: Fantastic. Customer service is impeccable

Vantagens:

We love how it helps to develop our line managers and give a easy to use tool that helps give consistency, but allows individuals to express themselves.

Desvantagens:

Nothing significant that its missing at this point....if it integrated holiday booking and document saving that would be amazing...oh and a place to hold a role description doc...but thats it. Other than that. Outstanding.

Great for employee feedback

Vantagens:

This is an excellent tool to engage employees and take the temperature of the team.

Desvantagens:

Nothing to complain about. Great tool and will continue to use.

15Five & VetMed

Comentários: I feel that using 15Five my voice is better heard with my employer.

Vantagens:

I like 15Five because it allows the opportunity for me to voice my wins or my losses for the week. Rather than allowing for issues to pile up and create a larger problem, we can address our concerns without confrontation and with mediation.

Desvantagens:

Do I have to have a con? I like that my workplace offers this platform of communication. I can’t think of a situation when proper and efficient communication could be seen as bad?

Love 15Five

Comentários: Our team uses 1:1s, weekly check-ins, high fives, and OKRs to engage one another, discuss important topics with one another during meetings, provide weekly updates, and develop and achieve business results

Vantagens:

Ease of use, great for employee engagement, fantastic customer service, provides training and development webinars

Desvantagens:

There is nothing that I don't like about 15Five. Everything is great!

I will never come back to my old tools

Vantagens:

the clarity and capacity to handle in different ways your resources. You can set it up in many ways and never find limitations. It is more than a HR tool, it helps to structure your HR follow-up and drive efficiency across your teams

Desvantagens:

Don't really know, nothing is bad or useless, maybe multi-language as I m a french user.

Great for employee engagement

Vantagens:

I love this tool. It allows me to communicate with my superiors in a format that tracks specific topics discussed. My manager can also upload my performance review which allows me to revisit the plan whenever I want to.

Desvantagens:

I would like to see a more attractive layout. The topic page is very plain but this tool gets the job done.

Best Employee Engagement Software

Comentários: I my opinion its an excellent employee engagement software. It includes all the relevant functions and features that a employee engagement software should have. Like-
360 feedback, performance review management, one on one meetings, etc...
The price plans of 15Five are also reasonable.
I personally like the software very much.

Vantagens:

Few things I like most in the software is ... Its easy to use. It provides Mobile control, I can use the services by my smartphone also. One on one meetings. Foster productivity and communication. And the most helpful and intresting feature I like is , it provides customisable templates.

Desvantagens:

Few things that the software should improve ... It sends to much emails. Which is actually very distracting and irritating. The software should include more features at management level

Easy to Manage Performance and Review Goals With 15Five

Comentários: Our company and teams are very satisfied with 15Five!

Vantagens:

The product is extremely easy to use for all types of teams within a company. We were able to integrate it with no complications. The check-ins are a great feature that ensure the right priorities are being focused on.

Desvantagens:

There are a lot of features within 15Five that I do not think we're taking full advantage of as a company! The interface does not make these additional features very prominent so you do have to spend some time to poke around to see what other features there are that may be useful to your team or company.

Review of 15Five Features - Excellent! :)

Comentários: Fantastic, though somewhat limited.

Vantagens:

I love the organized layout and easy-to-use dashboard, but particularly, the daily goals function.

Desvantagens:

Not much, just unfortunate I don't use it more! :)

The interaction between bosses and staff is more direct and close thanks to this software

Comentários: 15FIVE, is an excellent solution for any company that wants better levels of feedback with its employees. A good manager is one who cares about the welfare of their workers, the challenges, the projected goals and the performance and productivity, and this software is a very efficient alternative for these purposes

Vantagens:

This software was introduced by the human resources department of my company, demonstrating excellent benefits that I will mention below: - A more direct relationship between the workers and the heads of the company where I work. -A permanent feedback system where different characteristics such as the morale of the work team are evaluated, expectations, successes and failures, making direct reports to the bosses in order to attack problems and strengthen solutions that strengthen the spirit and productivity of the employee. -Information in real time of the different problems that are generated in my workplace. This ensures that supervisors and managers have a clearer job and managerial outlook.

Desvantagens:

This software came to strengthen the feedback between various levels of command of the company, has sensitized and brought to reality the problems of the company, creating an excellent working environment, therefore I have no claim whatsoever about this software

Great communication and feedback tool

Vantagens:

I really like the High Fives feature than can be use to appreciate the work done by an employee. This is an incredibly useful feature that surely increases morale and boost productivity. Another great feature i love and enjoy using is the 1-on-1 feature. It's also very nice that the software is beautifully built and very easy for just about anyone to use.

Desvantagens:

I can't think of anything negative about this software. It has always worked well for me ever since I started using it.

15/5 Great Management Tool

Comentários: 15/5 is a fantastic tool for remote teams

Vantagens:

There are several things I love about this software. The ability to check my co-workers 15/5's and see what types of tasks/goals they're working on weekly is useful in our remote team because it provides me with a reference which allows me to consider where I am in comparison to the rest of the team, and how I might shift my focus if need be. The High Five tool is also fantastic because it allows us to show our appreciation for the little things we do for one another, as a remote team we aren't always sure if the things we do actually make much of a difference and this allows us to give "kudos" to things which otherwise might go unrecognized.

Desvantagens:

One of the little issues I've had with this software is that it is difficult (Impossible?) to delete a task. A quick example of this: If I write "Arrange a meeting with ___" and later that day I realize this is not the person I should be meeting with, it is difficult to remove the task, and though I can mark it as complete, it still makes the task list look cluttered and looking back on 15/5, may cause confusion.

15Five has allowed our team to open a great direct comms channel with their managers. Love it!

Comentários: Communications and team integration!

Vantagens:

It has also opened-up a great channel for our managers to learn and get insightful information from the needs and concerns of our collaborators. We love its easiness to use and some slick features, like Hi fives, Objectives and Reviews! It has become a tool for people to recognize each other's efforts and achievements in the day-to-day life. We finish each one of our All-Hands going through every high five each member gave to their colleagues; it has made a great difference and now everyone is really looking forward to the Monday meetings, just to read and get their cheers!

Desvantagens:

In our specific case, we are based out of Mexico. A few of our employees don't speak English and therefore, it is more challenging for them to get the best out of the tool, especially the instructions they get from the system alerts, which are not editable. One other thing we've struggled with is that the Hi Fives feed is not showing ALL the messages, and therefore, we sometimes don't have the complete information in our All-Hands to share. Another thing that sucks is that me, as the Company Leader, cannot assign a reviewer for my reports. I'd love to get feedback from my partner, whose report's reviewer is me (I am her manager for this matter). Although counterintuitive in the theory, I'd be great that it was possible to set her as my reviewer as well.

Use this tool... it boosts morale and motivation!

Vantagens:

The "high five" functionality allows us to celebrate small and big wins in a timely manner. It also boosts our employees' morale and motivation. Imagine that you received weekly compliments from your coworkers and possibly even more? And those compliments went to your whole team... it's pretty fantastic.

Desvantagens:

I haven't found much that I don't like. Sometimes the program defaults to include my leader's full library of questions, but it's usually because she didn't pick questions that week and she just fixes it. Also, the rating of completion of reports on time is a little discouraging, but I'm a high performer and pretty much expect 100% out of myself. I don't even think others (besides my leader) can see that score.

15Five is a great resource to promote employee engagement

Comentários: One of my first questions in my 15Five, which I still see on occasion is a three part question. What are you proud of this week? What are you stressed about? What can we do to relieve these stresses? I always have something I'm proud of. For me, the challenges come from what am I stressed about. I introduced my newest management to a typical day for me, and she felt there were many times I should be stressed. She helped me to find those portions of my day, and take on some of the extra responsibilities so I was working at the same level of efficiency throughout the whole day. To be specific, she took on some of my start of shift responsibilities, as I am limited to how long I have to prepare. Also, she took on some of my preparation for on boarding the new hires I receive. And lastly, she rescheduled some of my pickups that were always coming at the same time at my end of shift when I was trying to multi task and finish our data input. I was working through all these challenges and not even realizing that I didn't have to until I had 15Five to effectively communicate where I could use an extra hand.

Vantagens:

Everything. It has improved our open door policy by giving us another outlet for effective feedback. Also, the 15Five team is always looking towards improvements; inspiring to see that.

Desvantagens:

It took longer for me to learn how to use it effectively. That was my own personal struggle. When presented with this service, I just wanted to hurry up, fill it out and get through it. I now know how to manage my time, fill it out a little bit here and there so I am not rushing to finish it at the end of the week. Maybe a stronger emphasis on filling it out little by little thru the week so the client isn't doing what I was doing at first and rushing to finish it with out providing efficient responses to the questions.

Excellent Way to Track Employee Goals and Sentiment

Comentários: 15Five has allowed my company to hold itself, its employees, and its departments accountable to their predefined as well as prescribed goals. The high five forum allows employees to boost each other. The goals sections hold the company and its employees accountable. The questions section lets an organization hear from its employees in a way traditional open forums do not.

Vantagens:

15Five makes it easy to input and track personal, department, and company goals A great app UX makes it easy to use on the go The high five feature is great for company culture as it gives employees a forum to support each other and give public recognition The questions feature lets you easily survey your department or entire organization, which is a great way to discover new ideas that management might not have thought of.

Desvantagens:

I don't have a single thing about this software that would keep me from recommending. It is, in my mind, the best I have encountered when it comes to goal tracking.

15Five

Vantagens:

We are using NetSuite for Employee Feedback and goal settings. It is really nice and user-friendly.

Desvantagens:

There is nothing to dislike about 15Five. We are using NetSuite for Employee Feedback and goal settings. It is really nice and user-friendly.

It is a quick and easy tool that helps me stay in touch with others in my company

Comentários: It is a weekly diary that I use for both myself and my manager so that we both know what I've done and what I want to do. Sometimes it is hard to remember what accomplishments you've had down the road, and this way it is all on paper.

Vantagens:

I like that it really helps you think about what your week to week really does look like, what you've done, what you want to do, and what has been holding you back. This is great for months down the line when you want to look back at your past accomplishments. It also really helps keep others in your company connected with what is going on when they might not be involved in your day to day. This way everyone can be better informed about decisions and allocation of time and energy.

Desvantagens:

So far I've not really found many cons as it does what it does. I think the hardest part is really making sure to get in the habit and our company really had to come together to say "We're going to do this every week, without fail." Once everyone is onboard, it really shows.
