Khorus vs. Profit.co

Khorus just seemed like a waste of time and money. I'm not sure what it's well suited for, but there wasn't a way to objectively measure your tracking of goals. The visual was nice, but all the goals were so subjective and really not helpful. It's also quite possible that I had the wrong approach.

It is good for companies that want to have clear Objectives, where they describe how they will achieve them and will track the progress. If used properly it can significantly improve the company's productivity and the employees' understanding of where the company is going. This platform will find its customers in companies that are oriented towards efficiency and are willing to invest some time and effort to understand how their departments are working. Thus, reflect on how you can improve things.

• I honestly found Khorus to be good for keeping a log of my goals.
• The software itself was easy to navigate
• It wasn't super buggy

Incentivized

• Easy to use
• Has many off the shelf templates and metrics
• Easy to customize

• It seems like a glorified spreadsheet at times with a cleaner interface.
• The objectivity of goal tracking was absent.
• I don't see that Khorus serves certain teams very well, such as a customer support team. Our goals don't change very often and the ones that we do have are very tedious to log.

Incentivized

• Have an easier way to extract data from the API to our database

I much prefer Asana to Khorus. It's not only good at tracking but also a task manager. You can see that you are heading towards your goal in an objective approach, assuming that you laid out your project accordingly. Additionally, we use 15Five to get that extra insight as a manager to ask our team how they are doing and if they reached their goals, what's getting in the way, ect.

Profit.co was the easiest to use and the customer is great.

• We ended up leaving Khorus and now use 15Five & Asana.
• I think Khorus is a good idea but wasn't quite there in execution.
• The initial creation of my goals was a good starting point for accomplishing them. I had to hash out the longterm solutions I was hoping to accomplish.

Incentivized

• Not measured with hard numbers yet but definitely improved the employee's productivity.
