Cognology

Kommentare: Cognology's onboarding solution has been a huge time saver for us.

Vorteile: The functionality of the onboarding and the overall ease of use when administering. Have also been very impressed with their openness to suggestions for improvement. The staff has loved the fact that they now can manage their employment processes online. Especially useful for as we have over 19 sites to manage employees across.

Nachteile: Not too much that I don't like and anything that we suggest is a problem is usually fixed. We were one of the first companies to use the onboarding and, of course, with any new product there were some minor issues to work through.

Kommentare: We now have a performance management process which is structured, details are documented and all managers and employees use the software and embrace the benefits. A paper-based process is no longer needed which eliminates hard copies of files and also makes record keeping much quicker.

Vorteile: The best thing is that everything is in one place, the details of performance conversations between the employee and their manager and these details are not lost if one of them leaves the business. Both parties have access to the folders to review at any time, leave feedback, revisit KPI's, and record professional development activities. Also having a system such as this implemented reduces the possibility of performance reviews not happening, the reminder emails and notifications within the program keeps everyone on track and aware of the progression of reviews etc.
Managers are finding the platform great to record details of any performance management any conversations they have with their team, meaning if we have to move to more formal processes we have thorough records of previous meetings etc.
Much less paperwork!

Nachteile: I cannot say there is anything that we have come across with the software that we don't like.
At some times it appears to run slowly but we haven't felt the need to investigate this further as it has only been mentioned occasionally by some users.

Kommentare: I am a HR consultant and have introduced the software to a number of my customers. I have been able to configure it to meet the differing needs of each customers. New starters find the system very easy to use. Customer service is excellent.

Vorteile: Ease of use, cost effectivenes, amazing self configuration

Nachteile: Nothing. Its amazing. recommended for any size business for managing performance, learning and onboarding and other functions like 360 and succession planning.

Kommentare: The system provides a high quality outcome for the clients we consult with. The customer service and advice is impeccable and also reliable. The reports are detailed yet easy to comprehend and provide debriefs on.

Vorteile: I think this software provides the user and administrator with a lot of detail. As someone who sets up the 360 assessments, I am impressed but how much detail there. You can check in, you can send follow up emails, you can see dashboard reports in realtime. It tells you who hasn't completed and selects them to send follow up emails to. I think the quality of the report is extremely high, again the report goes into a lot of detail. It provides the client and individual with key insights and really synthesizes the detail into key strengths and development areas.

Nachteile: I think for as much as the software provides huge amounts of detail, it sometimes be a little overwhelming as a user. I think the steps on the home page are better to follow than the tab down the side.

Vorteile: Provided a central system in respect of reviews and allows us to be online as opposed to a paper base review system that we previously had.

Nachteile: Has not been as easy to navigate as we initially thought. In hindsight we would do things differently to get more out of the software.
