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.

We use BetterWorks to keep track of our Objectives and Key Results. The platform allows linking our Objectives with those of the rest of our team, and with the rest of the company. I also use BetterWorks to assess my key results and their progress. It is part of our company strategy.

We used Hyphen company-wide. At the time, it was the only platform that we could find that allowed us to send text surveys to employees. Having the majority of our work force not be on a computer daily meant that we had to get creative in how we received feedback from our team. Hyphen was able to help us ensure that our workforce was happy, as well as to identify problems quickly and pinpoint any areas that we needed to further investigate. The team was great at helping us customize the platform, and really engaged with us to ensure that we had what we needed.

We use BetterWorks to share top company goals, align team goals with our top goals, and have quarterly conversations about our goals and progress with our teams. Being able to see the goals across the entire company enables transparency and alignment among the cross-functional teams as well as our different departments.
