About StaffCircle

StaffCircle is a mobile first, multi-channel employee engagement and communications platform which helps organizations engage and communicate with both hard to reach non-desk-based and office-based employees. Users are provided with a progressive web app branded to the business, which can be accessed by smartphone, tablet or PC via any common web browser.

StaffCircle’s interconnecting features help streamline the organization and create a consistent and universal communication experience for the workforce. The platform’s mobile intranet features help users enhance work culture by sharing information and feedback through rich content such as articles, alerts, awards, promotions and training over the live information feed. A built-in template editor allows for personalized multi-channel messaging, and users can segment staff into groups to send quick 2-way messages to teams via SMS, in-app, or email. Web and mobile-enabled time tools help streamline overtime, sickness, and holiday management with automated logging and manager authorization controls.

StaffCircle also offers a people directory with skills search functionality to help users locate workers, as well as the ability to search files and folders to access relevant HR information. The employee timeline gives a complete view of engagement and activity, and tools for skills management allow users to allocate skills to employees, and log those gained from completing training or achieving objectives. Performance management features allow users to visualize team objectives and review performance of desk and non-desk based workers through analytics, and includes a built-in reward system for financial incentives.

StaffCircle digitalizes tasks and worksheets to help systemize processes and visualize progress in real time. Users can build digital worksheets using the drag-and-drop builder and view task statuses across the organization through powerful analytics, helping to identify trouble areas. StaffCircle also enables the digital signing of worksheets via any device, and completed worksheets can be downloaded as CSV files, PDFs or streamed into external platforms via integration aggregators like Zapier and Microsoft Flow.

    Really helps build high performing teams

    Reviewed on 2020/10/12

    Pros

    It has helped us dramatically cut admin time and improve performance management across the business. Support is first class, and the customisation options excellent. Pricing is very good too compared to the competition.

    Cons

    It can take a while to get familiar with the platform, but that is to be expected with any software like this. As I said support is great though, so this isn't too much of a problem.

    Its early days but we have had a really good implementation experience - thank you Charlotte! So far we love the product and its potential as an engagement, performance and development tool.

    Pros

    Performance management - integrates very well with our existing systems and provides opportunities for us to enhance these further.
    Employee engagement - enhances our previous "People Matters" newsletter by enabling dynamic information and feedback on the new People Matters feed
    Objective setting - enables clear line of sight from organisational to individual objectives. Allows setting and reviewing of objectives to be a real time process rather than, artificially, only at review time.

    Cons

    HR Ops - lots of basics missing including inability for employee to review their contractual information, lack of basic attrition/headcount report and no confidential area for manager notes on employee. Org chart is basic and unable to use to drill down levels, unable to create editable templates in platform, no read and accept - work around is a bit clunky. Other areas too which we are told are on the roadmap.

    Very positive - it is a useful system and the support I have had from StaffCircle has been wonderful whenever I have had an issue.

    Pros

    There are lots of useful functions on StaffCircle that you can build around the needs of your role/organization. The analysis tools are particularly useful and everything is categorised clearly to find the information needed.

    Cons

    The platform could be more intuitive by automatically saving tasks as you go rather than needing to manually save/upload information to the platform. It would also be useful if we could amend/adjust the questions on reviews to make them more relevant to specific roles.

    Team are very professional, they adapt their processes according to how we work. The customer success team have been very patient and supportive - we don't have many resources dedicated to HR so they have given us very extensive training and onboarding. The buying experience was very positive, the sales team have a deep understanding of the product and their customers challenges so it was easy to be engaged in the process. I also found StaffCircle's content was especially useful in helping me research performance management and how the tools help to address different workforce challenges.

    Pros

    HR time off is really easy and helps keep track of employees, especially when teams are remote. Communication tools are very targeted - segmenting audiences and channels is very sophisticated. Performance managed is well thought out, it is tailored to how ever you manage employees' performance so you don't have to change your processes to fit the software like a lot of other solutions.

    Cons

    Nothing not to like really, all of our users are very happy and we have not had any issues
