Integrates with various tools with flexible pricing model and easy setup
We conduct quarterly reviews throughout the year, using the system to manage the entire performance cycle. Employees and managers provide feedback, and one-on-one meetings can be scheduled directly through the platform. The system handles all records and notifications, syncing with Google Calendar and providing meeting preparation tools. Employees only need to complete their reviews, while the system takes care of the rest. After the reviews, we receive insights from all departments and regions, helping us analyze performance trends. HiBob can be configured to support hybrid and remote work, but its effectiveness will depend on how well it aligns with your company's needs and setup. While the system allows for customization, including features like tracking birthdays and anniversaries, its usefulness for remote work will vary. Compliance issues, such as GDPR, will also play a role in deciding which features to use. Ultimately, the value of these tools will depend on your company's specific requirements and location. HiBob requires one person for maintenance, though additional admins can be assigned as needed. The system offers various modules, such as the talent model, compensation hub, analytics hub, and hiring model, which may be utilized depending on your company's needs. For a company of around 200 employees, one person is typically sufficient for maintenance, but a second person might be needed if the company grows to around 250 employees. Overall, I rate the solution an eight-point five out of ten.
