About WorkStory

You don't have to spend hours on employee performance reviews.

WorkStory's review process saves you time by integrating with your team's workflow - collecting data automatically without surveys, spreadsheets, or docs.

Automate your process with the tools your team already uses—Slack, MS Teams, WebEx, Gmail or Outlook— so that you can collect feedback and performance data without any additional work.

Hands on training, support, and onboarding is included.

WorkStory helps hundreds of companies save countless hours on employee performance reviews.

Key benefits of WorkStory

Automate your performance reviews with tools your team already uses—Slack, MS Teams, WebEx, Gmail or Outlook.

AI-generated performance summaries and recommendations for improvement.

Tailor the review experience to your organization with custom performance categories for each role.

Understand team culture and keep employees engaged with pulse surveys.

WorkStory Software - Collecting performance information in real-time means that your managers and employees can be on the same page throughout the year. With access to their own data, employees can be advocates for their own growth in-between performance check-ins.
WorkStory Software - WorkStory sends you performance review questions automatically, throughout the year. Answering these questions as part of your workflow means you don't have to spend any time putting performance reviews together when its time to have a conversation.
WorkStory Software - Rather than measuring your whole team by the same ten categories, customize the process so that you measure what matters for each team member. Continuous reviews allow you to track progress over time and be more targeted with identifying areas for growth.
WorkStory Software - Reviewing team members once a year is no help to anyone. Recency bias creeps in, leaving the employee with an inaccurate view of their performance. Instead, WorkStory can help you collect information continuously so that you get the real story.
WorkStory Software - Because WorkStory automates the performance review process, you can implement any style of review - whether that be manager to report, 360, or any mix of peer reviews.

We like what we're seeing so far

So far its been very good. I would recommend to other small businesses.

So far its been very good. I would recommend to other small businesses.

Pros

WorkStory allows you to collect reviews of multiple employees over a longer period of time so that you're not cramming during review time.

Cons

The dashboard can be slightly clunky and I don't understand how to use the reporting feature.

Response from WorkStory

Hey Paul, happy to hear that you're enjoying the experience so far. Appreciate you taking the time to leave a review.

You hit the nail on the head with regard to the process - making reviewing an ongoing experience so that formal performance reviews are quick and easier to put together...all while your fellow team members benefit from having continuous feedback throughout the year.

As for the dashboards and reporting, we have some great FAQs that include walkthrough videos which might be helpful:

Reviewed on 2024/04/07

Pros

The surveys are ok. I'm not sure how relevant they are.

Cons

This feels somewhat like we're judging each other and I prefer not to do that.

Response from WorkStory

Thank you for your candid feedback Steve. We understand your concerns about the relevance of the surveys and the feeling of judgment they may bring.

We're committed to refining the process to enhance team collaboration without discomfort. Much of this comes down to the individual questions being used which we're happy to work with your admin on better tailoring to your experience.

Please be sure to share your thoughts with them!

If you have any additional suggestions please don’t hesitate to reach out. Thanks again!

It's been nice so far, pretty easy to review coworkers. Just a few bugs with getting some for coworkers who were on maternity leave.

Pros

The integration with slack is great, pretty seamless since we live on slack as a company.

Cons

The questions can be a little in depth at some times, and sometimes I get a week where I'm hit with a lot and other weeks I get none at all.

Response from WorkStory

Thank you for sharing your feedback, Sophia.

We're glad to hear that the integration with Slack has been working well for you and your company.

As for your concerns around the question depth and frequency - we'd suggest checking in with your team's administrator as they can help to adjust both of those aspects of the system for you.

Similarly, if team members are OOO, your administrator can set them to be inactive so that you're not receiving extraneous reviews. If that happens though, please use the "I'm not sure" option to pass on the reviews and you should be good to go!

Thanks again for the review and please let us know if you have any questions!

Thank you for your kind words, Stefanie! We're thrilled that you find Workstory user-friendly and that it helps you feel heard within the company.
