Impactful

Reviewed on 2020/10/08

Pros

I used StaffCircle in my previous role and the company used the solution to communicate with our non-desk employees, to record and track holidays, run reports on compliancy (for example risk assessments, work permits etc.) and also for our performance management.

It has been great because we didn’t have to change our current annual appraisals, instead, we were able to align One2One reviews/check-ins with it. This means a more continuous approach to performance management which helps us see what is going well and what we need to improve.

Cons

Nothing to note. I know from working with the champion there was the initial set up for your risk assessments, but once that’s done compliancy and trackability are very easy.

Response from StaffCircle

Thank you for your review, we are pleased you are seeing maximum value from the platform

Really like the system overall and feel that it is really useful for keeping up to date. I also like how everything is under the same platform so only have to use one log -in.

Pros

I like the appearance of the system and that it is similar to a social media profile with a news feed and notifications. I really like how easy it is to keep up with internal communications from around the business and that you get a notification email for new content.

Cons

The performance review section could be easier to use from an employee point of view - its not always clear where you need to respond/save comments.

My overall experience with StaffCircle has been positive, with the platform offering valuable tools for managers. The seamless integration of goal-setting features has been a game-changer, providing clarity and structure to our team's objectives. While the interface could be more intuitive, once accustomed to it, the platform proves effective in streamlining processes.

Pros

What stood out for me with StaffCircle is how it makes managing direct report's annual goals a breeze! The way it smoothly integrates goal-setting into the HR routine (weekly/bi-weekly reviews) is very efficient especially given the templates for review meetings. It's like having a handy tool that helps you keep track of everything in one place.

Cons

While I found many great features in StaffCircle, I have to admit that the interface could use some improvement. Navigating through the platform wasn't always as intuitive as I would have liked. There were moments when finding specific functions or customizing settings felt a bit clunky and took more time than expected. A more user-friendly interface would undoubtedly enhance the overall experience, making it easier for users to navigate and maximize the tool's potential without any hiccups.

My experience so far has been very positive. I have not yet done a full round of the annual reviews but we have our mid-year ones and they were good. The support has been good and i'm interested to se how my company will continue to use this and develop it.

Pros

Its a good place for all HR information to be centralized. The bets features are the time off management, performance review process and the options to post on a wall like you would on social media accounts.

Cons

We use this a lot to get information out on directly non-work related things. Such as events, info etc. Sometimes we only get maybe 50% interaction form the company - Would be good if maybe on the email that gets sent round notifying people of a post, it gives them a preview to entice them clicking on to the link, rather than just name of post.

Very positive. StaffCircle is easy to use and very user friendly.

Pros

I like that StaffCircle feels very user friendly. Viewing company news is very similar to using some forms of social media making it engaging and easy to use.

It's also really helpful that you can see if your holiday requests overlap with another team member. I like that you can connect channels such as our payslip portal which makes it really easy to find important information in one place.

Cons

It would be good if it was possible to see the holiday of all staff at the same time. As I work with lots of teams across the company it would be good to use StaffCircle to see who is on leave quickly before setting up meetings.

Response from StaffCircle

Hi MElissa! Thank you for taking the time to leave your StaffCircle review. Your feedback is invaluable to us, as this helps us in our mission to continuously strive for excellence.
There is a way for you to see all holidays across the business using the calendar function. If you would like assistance in locating this, please do reach out to our Support team and we will be more than happy to assist.

A Nice Easy to Use Platform

Reviewed on 2023/12/08

Pros

As an end user StaffCircle is easy to navigate and make use of.
I mainly make use of the HR Resources, Staff Directory and Internal Communications aspect of StaffCircle and have found all of them user friendly and useful.
Specifically the Internal Communications feature, although similar results could be achieved with email threads or team channels, StaffCircle presents the information in one easy to find location and allows for greater recognition. A congratulations message about someone's promotion will quickly get lost in a company email but in StaffCircle it is not only set apart from the normal day to day workings of the company but provides a nicer way to recognise talent throughout our company.

Cons

As an end user I don't really see any negatives to StaffCircle, I have not had much experience with similar products on the market so also can't make much of a comparison.

Using StaffCircle has been one of my better experiencing with using an online HR system. I would certainly recommend the use of this system, it is very simple to use, yet has everything we need for out businesses needs.

Pros

Easy to navigate between pages
Can move between looking at my profile and the profiles I manage with ease
SMART goals are trackable and have features that make it quick to update
Space to upload documents that need sharing
Booking annual leave is simple
Approving annual leave is also simple, as you can see clearly who already has time off one each day, meaning that you won't accidentally overlap holiday
Notification when a change/request has been made, meaning you don't need to log on to check for updates

Cons

No issues so far and having been using this for over 6 months.

The staff and support have been amazing from day 1. They are attentive to your every need, friendly and relaxed whilst also listening to any areas of development and take your thoughts on board. Very impressive.

Pros

I also like the navigation around the platform and look forward to seeing the new style when we updated the UI.

Cons
