PeopleGoal Software

Performance evaluation made easy

We have been using PeopleGoal for over a year as both a vehicle to manage employee performance evaluation and as a mechanism to track Strategic Plan performance through Balanced Scorecards. PeopleGoal has provided our university with unparalleled access to performance data that is seamlessly merged at both the individual contributor as well as departmental scale. We can now view our performance data across multiple dimensions and can drill up or down into our associated data. This functionality provides insights into areas of strength and challenge that have previously not been available. PeopleGoal was very simple to implement and is intuitive to use. The company's responsiveness to requests, customizations and enhancements has been unparalleled...we have never been told to 'wait until the next release'; 99% of the time our requests are accommodated with immediate effect. We chose PeopleGoal after an extensive search of software solutions, and it was the clear choice in terms of functionality and price point. The incredible customer service has been an unexpected, but highly appreciated, bonus!

Pros

Cloud-based, intuitive, simple implementation, affordable, wide range of functions, customer support, beautiful interfaces, robust reporting suite.

Cons

None apparent after a year of use.

Performance software management is key to our successes in 2017. PeopleGoal is awesome!

The ability to hold our employees accountable to goals, work performance, and values in a paperless and online state.

Pros

The ease of its functionality and data warehousing of our associates goals in relation to our company objectives

Cons

More mobility and able to customize. We would like to use this system as an HR portal to get further engagement. Include surveys for employees to provide feedback on the organization.

Good tool to capture and manage goals, but lacks a feature- to capture 1:1 meeting notes

Pros

-- The layout is user friendly
-- The fields are self-explanatory
-- Facility to pull historic data; that helped us for reviews & appraisal
-- Feature to customize questions as per your org's needs
-- Aligned with OKR system; a system that we follow

Cons

-- Any request for customization was handled in a cold manner - "when we discuss with our developers we may consider your suggestion"
-- No guidelines for first time users - should have provided prompts/ pop-up messages on next steps

Great for People

Pros

Robust talent platform with extensive custom functionality. Learning curve is fast for both employees and administrators due to ease of use. Fully integrated with other cloud platforms. The support team is highly responsive and professional. All dashboards, analytics and reports are second to none. Overall, an out-of- the-box platform that supports talent-centric companies and allows to tailor as per business needs.

Cons

Nothing, they're exactly what we were looking for and more.

We are Very happy to use this tool.

Initially performance review process is done manually. This process is changed now with this tool usage. Lot of time is saved and productivity increased.

Pros

I like this software as it is cloud based . This tool also provides an option to pull the data which is saved in the past and its integration with Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and others is good. The option scorecards is awesome. Customer support is Fantastic.

Cons

I feel that they need to add some more features other than this everything is fine with this product.

Outstanding customer service and the follow up and follow through is out of this world...

Our global team can use the tool.

Pros

The ease of use. I have 60 people and the only issue we have ever had is they ran out of time and had to have help signing in.

A Great Software!

We first chose PeopleGoal to change our Annual Review process, which was still done on paper. Everyone is now happy to be able to do it online, the tool is nice and user-friendly. We faced one little problem in the configuration of our Annual Review model. As soon as reported to the PeopleGoal Support team, they were very reactive and corrected it very quickly. Now we are about to open the "Goals", "Development" and "Feedback" features, there are also a lot of expectations from all our employees! We also asked for one special development option and they agreed to do it very quickly. So great job, thanks again!

Pros

- User-friendly
- Very nice tool
- Great support team

Cons

Some of the features could have more options for customization.
But when asked to add one, they accepted to develop it immediately for us!

Top-notch product with a surprisingly deep set of functionality

We use PeopleGoal to manage our office staff. The goals module is incredibly easy to use and customizable and we've just started to manage our OKRs on the platform. We've customised our goal attributes to suite W4Co and our staff feel like they are contributing to the company objectives. Feedback is really easy to use and has saved us loads of time gathering emails. Customer support is quick and efficient. Highly recommended product!

Great performance review software!

I started managing my teams performance through Appraisly last month. The software is great! It helped us reduce the time spent on tracking deliverables. Also, it enhanced team engagement as for the first time they were able to see how their objectives supported our business goals.

PeopleGoal Review

Pros

Provides multiple options for goals (okr's, kpi's etc)
Provides 2 levels of view - direct manager and overall manager
Ability to write dept wise goals

New features are limited / in the past 1.5 yrs
Can't make too many custom changes which are needed for smaller orgs which have atypical setups
Customer support is slower than I'd like

Performance review made easy

Pros

PeopleGoal helps you cut down on tracking and spend more time seeing how individual goals tie into the big picture.

Cons

I have no complaints about this software.

Very adaptive

In general, good, but to an extent it felt like a pointless service

Pros

You can integrate the aligning goals with other platforms that you use for the business like dropbox and slack

Cons

The fact that they do not tell you the corresponding plan straight away, which makes me think that they manipulate for every case in which they have a customer. Price discrimination is a very probable scenario.
