Qualtrics Employee Experience is great for annual reviews as well as weekly meetings, performance checks, quarterly events, and being able to edit and view results quickly. You can also build out reports to show everyone. I love the platform. It is nice knowing you also have 24/7 support. I highly recommend it for all events.

We used to use Survey Monkey and it did what we needed it to do. It's not as professional though, which is one reason why the switch to Qualtrics XM for People Teams. It did have basic features that Qualtrics XM for People Teams doesn't though, such as the ability to auto-alphabetize answer choices.

Incentivized

• AI co-pilot makes it easier to be more direct and less "wordy"
• Teams is a great program and I like how it's seamless and more advanced when you want to convert a file type.
• Tasks section is great way to keep track of lists that I constantly forget. Now I just use my computer to keep track of my "to-do list"

Incentivized

• Improves culture
• Scheduling
• Process improvement
