Betterworks vs. Peoplebox

[BetterWorks is a] good fit for a 250+ employees company that implements firm wide KPIs/OKRs system to measure employee performance and track corporate goals and progress, promote transparency and accountability.

I guess it is a good tool for smaller teams, that work from multiple locations at the same time - it helps to collaborate, and monitors common tasks progress and goals (to be) achieved so far. I guess it is not suited for global corporations yet, as it would require some more detailed features (like bonus calculation based on each team member's performance.

• Integrations with tools like slack and asana are tedious.
• Goals are difficult to link across multiple people.
• Quantitative progress has to be updated manually in absence of the right integrations.

We've been using it for going on four quarters now and it's become part of how our team plans our work for the quarter, holds ourselves accountable, and decides who is doing what work and why. Without it we'd certainly have to replace it with something else - plus it's so nice to see the other departments and top company goals so easily.

Overall the platform is clean and easy to use. It's quick to learn and not unnecessarily complex. While a few specific filtering features can be wonky it's nice that it's simple and clean. There are a lot of icons where words may be more appropriate in the navigation but otherwise the platform is easy to use and quick to hop into and check in.

BetterWorks is great at implementing the Objectives and Key Results framework, and it also provides a framework for employee feedback and performance reviews. However, BetterWorks' capabilities to follow up on specific tasks or activities are limited, and you would need to complement these features with another app or platform. Nevertheless, I think in many ways is best to keep these kinds of functionalities isolated.

Ally and Peoplebox are very similar in nature. Both are fairly intuitive and easy to use, and both offer to create goals and objectives, assigning key results and tracking progress easily. Both tools also offer integrations with other tools like Google sheets, asana, etc but Ally integrations work much better in my experience.
