Chose 15Five
No other experience with this type of tracking.
Chose 15Five
15Five offered our sales team more robust reporting and ease of use for navigating the dashboard features.
Chose 15Five
Specialized in performance management, easier to roll out and use than other products, the service, and people at 15Five are top-notch. The ease of doing business with 15Five is high.
Chose 15Five
Visually 15Five blows Yammer out of the water! Yammer was easy to use as well, but it felt very difficult to get on to and was not single sign-on when we were using it. 15Five allows for easy login with single sing on feature and has less "clicks" to get to where I need to be …
Chose 15Five
15Five is much more user friendly than the Workday goal setting and check in capabilities. 15Five is more real-time and allows users goals to be more fluid and agile when business objectives change. 15Five also has much more functionality in terms of goal settings, weekly check …
Chose 15Five
I have worked in Fortune leading companies, small start ups and leading healthcare organizations of every size and stature over the last 30 years. Never have I had a program I loved and looked forward to each week like 15Five. There is no comparison!
Chose 15Five
We use each platform differently. We use Asana to make long-term and short-term priorities and assign each team member to specific tasks. Each task has different due dates spread out over a period of time. We use 15Five for individual weekly objectives and as a tool to check-in …
Chose 15Five
I've used both Lattice & 15Five. They both have their pros and cons but ultimately I feel that 15Five is more user-friendly and easier to understand for my employees.
Chose 15Five
I haven't seen anything that offers what 15Five offers. We've been using it since they were very young and haven't considered switching. Why would we?
Chose 15Five
I only have experience with 15Five in this capacity, and it was amazing. I really miss using this tool and I hope that we will have an option to get it back in our future; especially now that we have expanded and grown our number of staff that works on this project.
Chose 15Five
Asana is geared toward project and task management with communication features while 15Five is geared toward team health down to the individual level.
Chose 15Five
I've used Asana and Jira. Jira has too much functionality for a team like ours and Asana didn't have enough gamification for our team. At the end we chose 15Five because it was simple to use and easy to follow, it also allowed the manager to review each individual on the team …
Chose 15Five
I have never encountered another service or product that provides the same level of insight that 15Five affords, coupled with such a fluid and user-friendly experience. From the lowest-level employee all the way up the corporate ladder, there is a lot of value to be gained from …
Chose 15Five
15Five has been more comprehensive and covers all facets of our business. Facebook Workplace served as more of an overall collaborative business tool with opportunities to post quotes and articles to share.
Chose 15Five
Bananatag now has the built-in capabilities to include employee pulse surveys, which I love. 15Five is a little more direct as our manager required us to fill out the internal feedback section weekly.
Chose 15Five
I haven't, as I was not a decision-maker in the purchasing. I've used others in the past, but frankly, can't remember their names!
Chose 15Five
Asana isn't necessarily a performance tracking tool but we tried to use it in a way that would work. 15Five is much better since it specializes in this area specifically.
Chose 15Five
15Five has been a much better solution for our team. The feature suite is much broader and we found that Khorus at the time had a very subjective approach to measuring Objectives and Key Results. 15Five does so much more with one-on-ones, employee health, and performance …
Chose 15Five
The great advantage of Quick Base is that you can pretty much mimic the functionality of an app like 15Five on it. That, however, is easier said than done because it is difficult to find talented Quick Base developers and the cost model of Quick Base can make it prohibitively …

I believe if your managers can't make time to have in-person or live check-ins with their employees, the 15Five surveys and tools can create a semblance of care and follow-up, but many employees resent how impersonal it is. If you are able to have more face-to-face interactions or Zoom one-on-ones, those are almost always better-received by employees.

Pros
15Five
  • The Pulse Check feature is both easy to use and allows staff and management to gauge how team health is.
  • The metric and key performance tools are very well designed.
  • Automated reminders and reporting are great features.
  • I find the customer services to be best in class.

Cons
15Five
  • The more business units and teams you adopt consistently using 15five, the more you see the full value.
  • Reporting - it would be helpful to see an entire org chart breakdown of the goals hit/missed at the end of each quarter.
  • Recommendations - focus points/alerts on OKRs that aren't progressing and auto-generated action items you should take would be really useful functionality.

This program is the absolute best I've ever used in 30 years with organizations. Not only do I enjoy being a user and "filling it out" every week- but I would personally buy it if available for goal tracking in my personal life I love it that much!

Usability
15Five
It's very simple to use - not overly complicated. You wouldn't need training to use. There are some features I never use because I don't understand -- like one on ones. However we use without and still find a lot of value in it!

Support Rating
15Five
15Five support is quick and helpful. We work with other vendors in the people management space and performance tracking/management who offshore their support or force us into long queues to chat for support and it just doesn't support our needs very well. 15Five is responsive and speedy. We constantly evaluate our vendors for their support and have switched vendors in the past in other areas because of limited support capabilities

Very helpful webinar training. They answer questions, the slides are all very helpful, and they send you the presentation once the webinar is complete so that you can share with your team.

Visually 15Five blows Yammer out of the water! Yammer was easy to use as well, but it felt very difficult to get on to and was not single sign-on when we were using it. 15Five allows for easy login with single sing on feature and has less "clicks" to get to where I need to be on the program. I also love the app way more than Yammer!

Return on Investment
15Five
  • It holds each employee to a certain standard by having them select their own list
  • Gives them the opportunity to reach their list of goals
  • Being able to accomplish each set goal and/or priority gives a sense of pride in each person's work as they are able to check off what has been done
  • On the negative, it can also show what the employee is not being done and may show poorly if there is a consistent pattern of not completing tasks
