Performance Management

What is Performance Management Software?

Performance management software solutions aim to assist managerial staff in the evaluation of their employees’ performances in relation to organizational goals and established performance standards. Performance management software solutions also manage the progress – or development – of each employees’ performance. Performance management software solutions foster productive discussions between management and its staff by allowing for the facilitation of continuous feedback. While capable of being a standalone solution, performance management systems are often part of a greater HR management suite. Utilized by HR departments across industries, performance management software solutions are often implemented to improve employee productivity, goal development and management, and feedback management.
