One because our requested enhancements are usually denied or go into the black hole of a system that uses votes from other clients to assess other clients interests.

I am an HR director, but the CEO and executive team in general were aware that reviews needed to be made functional in order to help increase revenue and hold on to good employees.

From an administrator perspective it is so much easier to use than other platforms, and the Product Support team is AMAZING. They are always just a phone call away and they are friendly and helpful.

The software is almost usable. Running a software company - if we gave our users this product we would shortly go bankrupt.

360º review option is good as it will even help peers to review each other.

Additionally, working with Cornerstone is like working with a true partner. My implementation specialist has been like an extension of my HR team and has been extremely helpful.

As always, the customer services support from Cornerstone is exceptional and certainly steered us down the right path.

If user documents are not created tasks can be hard to deploy.

It can be difficult to customize things and can take a long time working with the vendor. Proxy sometimes won't work properly.

The Cornerstone software was fairly user friendly. I really liked the 360 review ability.

The people who filled in for them seemed overwhelmed and as a result there was a lack of communication.

Easy to use with various modules for goal planning and performance reviews and notes for conversations during review time.

Hard to get someone to call you back or answer to the ticket.

I don't like how often you have to change passwords but that's a minor inconvenience really.

Thankfully, Cornerstone woke up and the last few releases saw a welcome improvement to UI and UX. Simple, clean and modern.

Cornerstone Product Support is knowledgeable and timely in their response.

Easy and customizable a s a SaaS product should be. Integrates without any issues with other systems.

Cornerstone is the best and most comprehensive solution that I have seen for talent management. I have used the LMS, Performance, Succession, Connect and Extended Enterprise modules.

It also integrated our LMS with our Performance Management Process. Looking forward to Succession Planning in 2016.

The best thing I can say about Cornerstone CSB is the quality of the support service. They have been available to answer questions and help me configure and customize the system to my needs.

This product is great for ease of use for end users. We use the star-rating system and our end users love it.

360º feedback option is great. Graphical representation of where we stand in the overall crowd.

There is also a nice universal profile feature that allows you to see who everyone is, where they work and who they report to.

FLASH interface & non intuitive interface led to a poor product.

This system is highly customizable - pretty much any type of performance process can be plugged into this product.

While I do find great value in reaching out to their Global Product Support team, it will sometimes take days and even weeks before you get a response from them on a case.

Allows you to add quick notes to keep track of employees over time, so that review time is easy to fulfill. Also user interface is self intuitive.

The 360 Degree performance review functionality can be great if you make the initial time investment to set it up.

Also great to centralise all our p/documents, allowing our HR department not to hold hard copy p/files.

The Rep was very good at supporting the problems we had at the initial phase of upgrade, she was efficient and reacted to all the issues immediately. Please pass my sincere thanks.

This software is easy to use and reliable in order to record clocking in and hours etc as an employee.

A lot of hard work gets undone when upgrades are done that you are not aware of before the upgrade.

Always helpful in any situation. Nice talking to Support team.

Limited usage of color and customized options. Takes time to load with a large amount of data.

Ease of use with timeclocks. The dynamic options in regards to reports.

Versatility of adding multiple approvers. Ability to track and the use of time off accruals.

On the whole Softworks is much better than how we use to work, in support of clocking, payroll, shift planning, holidays, and reports.

Some gaps to functionality that we missed at evaluation stage.

Due to lack of usage, no longer familiar with the set-up or configuration. Therefore so any desired modifications tend not to get implemented.

Easy to train people and makes life very easy with the use of timeclocks for payroll managers with a large hourly population.

The upgrade is visually much better, still early days and we are learning all the tools it offers.

Visually Clear, ESS Very self explanatory. Good support team, very efficient, friendly.
