Now all of the questions, ratings and peer feedback are laid out in one view, and can be read. The 360 degree review layout is really good and the customer support is responsive, almost too responsive - I didn’t think that was possible. Coffee shop is loud today but I am going to press on with this. > > **Cons**: Bulk edits are a pain. If you are running multiple review processes - for example, new hire reviews, and annual reviews - it is very frustrating to try and adjust a rating scale without causing issues with both, I have spent hours on this alone. There is also no ability to bulk delete completed or cancelled items, you have to go one at a time. It is the type of thing that causes people to sit staring at the ceiling. Petty gripe - there are two acknowledgement steps in the approval process and they depend on where you are in the flow, managers consistently miss the second one, and thus I am left to deal with the issue. > > This system has given us a formal structure - reviews are completed on-time, managers now have something to use when discussing promotions with employees and peer feedback is not lost in a manager’s email. Additionally, it replaced a paper based system for some of the teams. Being able to pull reports without having to build them from scratch is the biggest benefit. ----- ### "Good account rep, but missing key automation and helpful integration" — 2.0/5 > **CJ** | *August 25, 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: Our account rep did a great job helping us get it setup at the beginning. \[sensitive content hidden\] also helped quickly when we had a support issue once. She took the time to go step by step and helped us figure out the solution. They also offered the text of commonly used review questions for you to create and setup yourself. > > **Cons**: The "integration" with Gusto sounds much better than it is. It pulls over the employees name and email most of the time. Less than half the time it pulls over their direct supervisor. That is the extent of the "integration", so it is easier to just do the setup yourself on their platform. The automation is also not what I was expecting. We thought we could configure it to automatically launch review cycles for employees based on their hire date. That is not possible and PerformYard recommended we just launch the review cycles on a monthly basis for every employee. That method works, but is sadly one of the key reasons to invest in a tool like this. > > After 3 years we decided to go another direction. Functionally, this will get the job done. We wanted a performance management tool that helped remove the human error to the process, so we went another direction for that automation. ----- ### "Performyard Review" — 5.0/5 > **Levchenko** | *May 26, 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: PerformYard does a great job doing the review part without having to crash the entire system (a total loss); you can award badges or some sort of recognition, and there appears to be an online "Learning Library" of sorts. > > **Cons**: Also nice is when reminders pop-up on my computer screen every time it's time for the quarterly performance reviews...I tend to forget. There isn't a grammar/spelling tool available for me to use while writing formal performance reviews. The Quarterly Check-In Listing will show exactly 3 (3) days before the deadlines but once shown, these listings are open for TWO WEEKS after the deadline. Sometimes the site loads VERY SLOWLY. Pulling reports from the last 90 days is very difficult. Finding employees by name (or whatever criteria you wish) who didn't get reviewed is a complete nightmare. > > Additionally, we are able to track our remote workers' goal setting through the system. If like myself you get completely lost in the Admin Menu Area, Customer Support Chat Responds Promptly. We've found the 360 Degree Reviews to be okay, too, especially since our Work Style is a mix of many different Clients in a Team Based Environment rather than the Traditional Hierarchical Structure. ----- ### "Thank God PerformYard works so good" — 5.0/5 > **Andrii** | *May 16, 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: These heatmap things help identify areas that are causing people to quit, and you do not have to dig through multiple spreadsheets to find those areas. Right now I’m sitting at my messiest desk sipping on cold coffee trying to get this done as quickly as possible; however, their AI summary tool did not fail us when we ran our large-scale survey. Also, the support staff people answer you back in support chat and remember where you left off if you had to leave and then came back. They also provide us with benchmarking data of other technology companies so our board has some type of reference point (other than asking us) to understand how we stack up against others. > > **Cons**: During our live review cycle in the middle of it, PerformYard moved where the reports lived which destroyed the dailies we send to the CEO and illy provided us with nothing but raw data trash. Every single time I attempt to view the different report categories using the back button I am completely logged out of the application. Additionally, comparing your current score to your previous years’ scores is not easy to accomplish. > > Our managers no longer take months to create an actionable plan, they receive one in about 10 minutes due to the automated process that occurs after inputting data into the system. ----- ### "It does what we need it to do with our employee evaluations" — 5.0/5 > **Larissa** | *May 22, 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I would have thought the 360 degree tool would totally be unworkable, however it has managed the comments surprisingly well. Emails automatically go out to remind employees (or managers) of upcoming deadlines so there's no "chasing" down people to get them to complete something they should already know about. > > **Cons**: Making massive changes to the rating scale is literally impossible and will destroy both the new hire evaluations and annual evaluations. That makes zero sense. Managers also continue to miss the second confirmation button, it is located randomly throughout the program. All-in-all it seems like a clunky application, too many odd terms/terminology and just to exhausting to learn. I dislike how convoluted it is. > > Prior to using PerformYard, we used Google Forms and Microsoft Excel, a total mess, therefore I am glad that PerformYard puts all the evaluation questions/ratings in one place without causing anything else to fail. No longer do I have to physically search through paper HR files for information on previous evaluations etc... since it is now available on-line. If you wish you may also send pulse surveys out via this system. ----- Page: 1 / 9\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/155747/performyard-talent?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/155747/performyard-talent) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
