Reflektive was being used by our entire organization. Reflektive is complete performance management, employee engagement, and HR analytics platform that really changed our organization. Our people department loved Reflektive because everything was in one place. Our HR team didn't have to switch to different HR tools to have access to performance reviews, goals, and engagement surveys. From Reflektive our HR team can create performance reviews for each department and send out surveys from the same platform. To complete the platform, our HR team can analyze all results from within the solution through the HR analytics feature. Reflektive helps with employee retention and engagement. The solution gives HR teams a clear picture of how their employees feel and what they want out of their careers.
  • Performance Management: Performance Reviews, Goals, OKRs.
  • Employee Engagement: Pulse Surveys.
  • HR Analytics: Heat maps, NPS
  • All in one solution.
  • Integrates well with partners and large HCM platforms.
  • More robust employee engagement tool.
  • Integrating with tools like Workday.
  • Ability to get users to use the tool more frequently.
Reflektive is a perfect tool for organizations that care about their employee's growth. The tool can help you with career planning and employee engagement, which is important right now because employees like to know they're being thought about while working from home. Employee engagement is crucial right now during the pandemic because employees need to know where they stand with the organization. Reflektive's goals tool helps employees and managers stay aligned.

Reflektive is being used primarily to streamline agendas and feedback across the entire company. It addresses the problem of not having a consistent space in which all employees keep notes, and it creates transparency between departments to see what goals others are working towards and where they are in the process.
  • Modern, innovative interface
  • Easy to understand training
  • Consistent effective updates
  • Difficult to align goals across departments
  • Not always seamless integration with gmail
  • Limited ways to measure goals
Reflektive is well suited for providing streamlined and easy to comprehend data for 1:1s, and when communicating company-wide to add to transparency and provide updates throughout departments. It can be less appropriate for those in a smaller company or who manage smaller teams, but that does not necessarily mean it wouldn't be useful.

At our company, we used Reflektive as an ongoing feedback mechanism for our staff, for goal management, and for the polling feature. We used it across the entire company with the main goal of creating greater alignment and having a process for ongoing measurement rather than infrequent annual measurements. We replaced a micro-survey tool with the product and a form-based performance review process.
  • Reflektive was continually making updates to their product.
  • Reflektive's had good plug-ins that met users where they were at (Gmail, etc).
  • It was very easy to nudge or follow up with employees who had not completed their reviews.
  • Reflektive often didn't do the best job informing users about the product changes we could expect to see.
  • Oftentimes, it was hard to know exactly who would see what in the system. We had to go to our customer service rep for a lot of questions that we wished were more thoroughly explained in the help center.
Reflektive is a good tool to use if you are looking to move away from a very administratively heavy performance review process, and you want some customization options. If you are a technology company and love nimble software with easy deployment, this will likely fit into your organization quickly with easy implementation. Still, there were some tricky things about it and the product is "in process," which can sometimes be frustrating as an administrator.

Our whole organization uses Reflektive. It’s a wonderful way to publicly give credit to your coworkers and also rack your personal and professional goals. It helps especially because many of us are virtual and it’s harder to connect in that kind of environment.
  • Employee Recognition
  • Ease of use
  • Goal management
  • None that I can think of!
It’s suited well for employee recognition and manager feedback. It could be better in how it tracks ones goals and the mobile usability is kind of limited which can be annoying.

This is being used throughout the organization as a kudos and recognition board. People don't know what other departments do to succeed, so its really extremely helpful to notice accomplishments. We also see what individuals and departments goals are for the year.
  • Provides a social aspect to encourage better collaboration
  • Personally, helps others see my accomplishments through my team
  • Provides me insight on people's goals
  • Wish I could be alerted on my mobile device
  • Be able to send push notifications when my team writes a review
  • Be able to challenge my peers' goals and make edits
Well suited on projects that require lots of hands to give kudos. Helps me understand the projects in different parts of the Org. Gives me an idea who works really hard on things I was unaware of. Gives a chance for the org. to be more positive.
Not suited: the app is hard to use and clunky.

We use Reflektive as a tool to publicly thank and show gratitude to coworkers across the organization, in every department. The tool enables employees to call out specific people, leave an encouraging note on a public feed, and hashtag applicable emotions, feelings, or sentiments that might be applicable to the action taken.
  • Simple & Easy to Use: Reflektive uses a streamlined UI that is solely focused on giving and showing employee gratitude.
  • Alerts: The tool emails you to let you know when someone has thanked you.
  • Integration: You can use the Reflektive web portal or use the Gmail integration which enables users to leave feedback without navigating to a separate site.
  • Native GIF integration: It would be great if the tool had a GIF selector when giving or responding to gratitude
  • On the sidebar, it would help to have a custom list linked to employees which enable users to quickly give gratitude to employees that work with the most closely.
  • Allow profile pictures to be pulled directly from Google or Facebook.
Reflektive is well suited for medium to large organizations where cross-functional work is a regular occurrence. It isn't meant to be used for employee reviews, self-reviews, or take the place of a corporate communications platform; rather, it is meant to do one thing - serve as a public soapbox and repository for giving and receiving employee gratitude.

We are trying to use Reflektive for employment engagement, peer recognition, surveys and performance management.
  • easy eNPS poll
  • easy to give Recognition through gmail plug in
  • nice integration with Slack
  • horrible for performance management
  • lack of visibility and flexibility in polls
  • lack of reporting
Reflektive is good for small tech companies that just need a simple recognition tool. It is not good for a full employee engagement tool as it is very limited in its customization and reporting features.

Great for recognition

We use Reflektive across our whole company. It’s been a great way to provide feedback and praise. For larger organizations, it’s an easy way to share success stories or thank other employees.
  • In larger organizations, it is difficult to communicate and share news with everyone without sending all-agency emails. Reflektive lets you provide that feedback or recognition for everyone to see, but saves your inbox from unnecessary emails.
  • The weekly roundup email highlights a few of the most recent recognitions. It’s nice to see a brief highlight, without having to get notifications for each post.
  • Reflektive let’s you tag multiple people in a post, so you can thank a whole team in one post.
  • We have had issues with the chrome extension and plug-in. But the issues are resolved.
Reflektive is great for large organizations that need a simple method of communicating feedback and giving recognition. It definitely helps boost moral amongst teams. This is not a platform that is meant for file sharing or project management types of communication.

We use Reflektive across the organization for OKR setting and reviews, annual performance reviews, peer to peer recognition and manager in-the-moment feedback to employees. It is addressing the need for feedback and enabling employees to know where they stand at all times.
  • The peer to peer recognition through celebrations and how that integrates in to Slack is great.
  • Enabling a performance "file" on every employees, so at review time it is seamless to look back at the feedback someone has received throughout the last review period.
  • The UI and ease of use for all users and admins.
  • Deeper capabilities for OKR management
  • More customization of the outlook integration
Well suited for small growing companies that want a flexible performance management solution. I think it would only not be appropriate in environments that want to keep long form reviews and only need it one time a year.

[It's] Used by our entire organization for goal-setting, progress check-ins, one-on-one conversations with managers, and promotion cycles.
  • Simple, streamlined user-interface, user-friendly
  • Holds managers and employees accountable to check-in
  • Helps employees track progress against goals
  • Ability to seek feedback from peers is nice
  • It's a pretty simple product; for a small company, the value could probably just as easily be achieved via Google Sheets.
[It's] Good for a growing or already mature company. Keep the process simple to get buy-in from all users (don't make it too burdensome or you will lose value). It's good for companies to track progress against individual goals, have a data repository for progress, and make sure employees feel accountable. Probably not great for a smaller/still scaling company where this is not yet an area of focus.

Reflektive is used by the entire company, across 4 locations in 2 countries. Reflektive is used by 300 employees across all departments.
It is used as a tool for ongoing feedback (the recognition wall) and also for periodical performance reviews.
  • The ongoing feedback tool is very easy to use, with the gmail plugin you can thank people "on the go".
  • The review process is pretty straight forward, clear what you need to fill out and where. The integration between the ongoing feedback and the review form is really nice
  • For managers: good way to store 1:1 agenda in a visible way that updated in real time for both participants
  • The mobile app is dreadful :( it's just a link to their web-view and it's not really responsive.
  • The UI isn't as neat. As most of their users are tech companies I think the design should be cleaner
  • Can't remove likes or comments
Reflektive will be a good tool for performance reviews. It's very flexible and customizable so easy to admin, and also very straight forward for the employees.
The ongoing feedback tool is nice but some employees might see it as "cheesy" or "forced" - so really depends on your company's culture
