About UpRaise

UpRaise is an agile performance management tool natively developed as a JIRA app (previously known as add-on). The paltform extends JIRA to manage OKR goals, exchange continuous feedback, and even conduct performance reviews. By bringing all of this into JIRA, users are able to efficiently connect strategy with execution, including additional context to help increase the accuracy of the review process. UpRaise is available for cloud, on-premise as well as data center version and can be integrated with HRMS, Slack, and REST APIs.

Users are able to set objectives with Upraise and link them to JIRA issues as key results. Automated progress tracking allows for accurate predictions based on the progress contributed by team members real time. Timeline views and punch-in densities bring along insights about the team’s behavior. The data which the team produces is used for generating reports that recommend actions proactively.

UpRaise allows for continuous feedback to act as a seamless extension of the company's culture with customizable feedback tags. Feedback could be made as formal, or informal ratings such ie. ‘You rock!’. Leader boards and social scores help foster a communicative culture. Users can also generate reports for HR teams to figure out managers and team members who default on policy of frequent communication.

Conduct performance reviews within JIRA, contextualized by the tasks and continuous feedback in UpRaise. Achievements or weaknesses can be highlighted and all data can be linked together including objectives, continuous feedback and engagement for improved performance reviews.
