    Quisitive
    How easily the system interfaces with the HRIS system is essential for setup. Unfortunately, the emPerform system doesn't seem to perform as well as we would like. Review setup is cumbersome and time consuming. We like the customized workflow, but would like more abilities to assign reviewers.

    No, we just had a bad experience unfortunately.

    Pros
    Quisitive
    • Ability to customize workflow.
    • Ability for Human Resources to aid managers by making recommendations/edits to comments before employees receive their evaluation.
    • Customized security profiles to ensure each stage of the process is administered according to a specific business model.

    • Unfortunately our experience was very poor, so I don't have anything for what they do "particularly" well.

    Cons
    Quisitive
    • Layout modifications when employees and managers are in "review" mode. The system would benefit greatly from having everything accessible with only a single click. The current layout requires the reviewer to visit different areas before even reaching the rating area.
    • Cloud-based performance management! With the popularity of remote and telework positions, it would be fantastic to offer employees and managers the ability to log in from anywhere and still access the performance management system.
    • Ease of use and integration with HRIS systems.

    • Transparency about the capabilities of their system. We would have never chosen WingSpan had we had a clear picture of the limitations of their system.
    • Ease of use - as an administrator we found it to be difficult to work with. Of course, improvements may have been made in this area since we used it last.
    • The user interface could use some updating.

    We feel very strongly about moving to a platform that's easier to manage and provides our employees/managers with a faster tool. We like the convenience of cloud-based software.

    We used Cvent following our WingSpan experience. It worked out much better and had more capability than WingSpan.

    Return on Investment
    Quisitive
    • Reduction in administrative time by having all of the performance evaluations available through an electronic portal.
    • Ability to have quick reporting on the status of evaluations and metrics on suggested training and development plans.

    • I feel it set us back a bit, and also caused us to lose credibility with our management team after it turned out to be a "failed experiment."
    • We have gone back to a manual system of doing goal setting that works better for us.
