What is Betterworks?
Betterworks offers intelligent performance management software solutions. Its enterprise-ready SaaS platform helps workforces and organizations achieve their potential with tools that foster greater manager effectiveness and employee performance, with the goal of increasing engagement and retention.
The Betterworks solution combines generative AI and data analytics to enable organizations to make smart, data-informed decisions linked to performance, calibration, skill development, career development, and succession planning.
A performance management solution, it incorporates goal-setting, manager-employee conversations, feedback, employee engagement, and recognition — all accessible in the applications employees use daily in the flow of work, like email, calendars, and messaging apps. Betterworks’ modules capture structured and unstructured data to provide HR with both comprehensive and granular views of employee performance. This enables managers to coach employees in both performance and career development, continuously improving performance and elevating the employee experience.
Increasing manager effectiveness
Betterworks eases the pressure managers experience by helping them more easily meet organizational and employee demands. Using conversation templates and check-in tools, managers can regularly review employee goal progress and engage in meaningful conversations around performance, recognition, and career development. This strengthens manager-employee relationships by increasing trust, transparency, and authenticity.
Delivering a better employee experience with AI as co-pilot
Businesses achieve better outcomes when employees feel engaged, productive, accomplished, and recognized. With Betterworks AI, employees can develop clear goals and metrics. Employees and managers can also create personalized, comprehensive, constructive, and unbiased feedback, leading to greater trust and focused career planning. Managers can use AI to improve the quality and clarity of their communications by drawing on employee goals, feedback, recognition, and other data to coach, express their expectations, and provide actionable and fair performance reviews.

- Asana and Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager
BetterWorks is great at implementing the Objectives and Key Results framework, and it also provides a framework for employee feedback and performance reviews. However, BetterWorks' capabilities to follow up on specific tasks or activities are limited, and you would need to complement these features with another app or platform. Nevertheless, I think in many ways is best to keep these kinds of functionalities isolated.
