Working with Goalspan has been excellent.
Eliminated paper reviews. Allowed a small company to have an affordable tool to manage performance.
PROSJournal entries, virtual suggestion box, electronic acknowledgements, customization of the software, excellent customer service
CONSSetting up the evaluation templates at first can cumbersome since you have to enter information in two different areas. But once a template is established the rest are easier to develop.

Overall good experience with once we became familiar with the software.
This is a great tool for Managers and Employees to stay on task for company and personal goals. I found the system to be very user friendly for the most part.
CONSOne of the things I didn't care for was setting up events. Another area I struggled with was deleting or making changes on goals.

I have been a happy customer of GoalSpan since 2010! The Performance Review process made easy!
The software saves time and makes a recurring task of Performance Reviews - setting-up, completing, and storing, a painless process . You can also utilize it to set goals for employees, and communicate with or create notes for an employee, or track an employee's progress. I would recommend that any business with 5+ employees look into it! There is much value in this system.
PROSIt is easy to administer the online system. I went in this year, a little behind schedule, updated my 17 employees information, and scheduled the task of delivering the reviews to our employees and their managers. I used to need assistance for setting up this process, but this year, I was intuitively able to do this myself in less than 15 minutes for email notifications to go out to each person, due to the continual improvements that are being made to the system. I was honestly impressed with how user-friendly it is now. GoalSpan has made a time-consuming , HR duty very easy, if not, enjoyable.
CONSFrom an Administrator perspective, you cannot control when and whether the managers complete their tasks or not. You will notice the Employees will complete in a timely manner, but Managers have other priorities and you will have to keep sending notifications and following up with them and explain how it works, most likely!

PROSIt is an easy to use, strategic tool that can be customized to fit your company's needs. The customer support has been outstanding. They have helped us in the customization, implementation, training of our employees and working through any user errors or computer glitches .
CONSThe biggest hurdle in implementing a review and planning process are the fears and misunderstandings that people have about it and the poor implementation by managers. Goalspan has gone the extra mile in providing support in these areas. I really don't know anything they could do better.

Simple to use, but not much is on there
It is simple, interface is clean. Easy to add goals and milestones. I think it's good for HR to do performance review and recommendations, but for regular user, there is not much we can do on there.
CONSWe use a different software for project management, and the this is basically another copy of the tasks for projects. Would be nice to be able to integrate with third party project management tools.
