### "Building a healthy, inclusive culture with Fortay"

July 2, 2024

5.0

Collaborating with the Fortay team has been a significant addition to their sophisticated platform. They engage proactively, are always eager to discuss our specific needs, offer useful tips on leveraging the tool, and serve as a thoughtful soundboard for our projects. Their openness to feedback, quick response times, and personalized support at every step have truly enhanced our experience, making it a pleasure to work with them.

Pros

Fortay brings a people-first approach leading with DEIB, neuroscience, and organizational effectiveness that is evident in the robust suite of solutions to build diverse teams and healthy, high-performing cultures at scale. Fortay integrates various aspects of the employee experience, from hiring to engagement and leadership development, with a strong focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).

Cons

There have been some minor glitches but the Fortay team has a very fast response time to resolve these.

Reason for choosing Fortay

The features that made Fortay stand out included the expert and evidence-based recommendations, collective action planning tool, and personalized development coaching plans in performance reviews. We wanted to collect feedback in a way that remains completely anonymous and helps us develop our people leaders. We were excited to launch Fortay’s engagement and demographic survey later this year for its promise of an aggregated results dashboard ensuring anonymity, inclusion and belonging-focused questions, and suggestions to improve inclusion and belonging at our organization. Our decision to adopt Fortay was informed by our trust in the team's expertise, ensuring its inclusivity and effectiveness. This tool surpasses others in the market with its flexibility to customize surveys choosing from a comprehensive range of question types that are relevant to us. Moreover, the clarity and simplicity of its reports and actionable insights make it a standout choice for us.

### "Great product rooted in knowledge and science"

November 12, 2024

4.0

Working with Fortay was a great experience. They are highly attentive to each customer, knowledgeable, rooted in science and focused on driving impact for organizations. Fortay was a great thought partner on a number of things in the talent/DEI world and the product delivered very useful insights for us.

Pros

Fortay has a quick, easy to use experience for candidates and an easy to use interface for viewing results. It is highly customizable and I think the focus on values in hugely impactful for an organization.

Cons

It did not impact the value Fortay brings but if I had to choose something, it would be the aesthetics of the platform.

### "A Rare and Highly Needed DEI Tool!"

June 10, 2024

5.0

Pros

As a DEI professional, it has been difficult to find properly validated inclusive leadership assessments - until now! With the use of Fortay, I have been able to assess where leaders are, empower them to move to action themselves, and simultaneously develop customized learning based on their strengths and opportunities. I love that I can easily customize the content and their personalized recommendations are much more detailed than other assessments by outlining a number of suggested actions with instructions, the potential impacts, and links to additional resources. Fortay has been an invaluable tool in helping me support organizations on their DEI journeys!

Cons

I have used numerous assessment and survey platforms in the past. Fortay is incredibly user friendly! The results are displayed in very simple and easy to understand terms. The only con is if administrators wanted more ways to display/analyze the data (e.g., word clouds, heat maps, export to PowerPoint or excel). However, Fortay is actively working on adding more features. Bonus - they already implemented items that I requested to help me better serve my learners!

### "The Best Tool to Lead with DEI in the Employee Experience!"

May 15, 2023

5.0

Fortay is a must-have for employee retention, engagement, DEI, & leadership development. It's a robust platform with all the tools to achieve success for our organization and one that is intentionally built to promote inclusion, equity, and high performance. The tools help our leaders understand where they need to focus their efforts and what they need to do to improve the employee experience and engagement through driver analysis, detailed recommendations, and action plans

Pros

There's so much to love with Fortay's products. First, they lead with DEI, and we view DEI success as key to our growth. The tools are very easy to use due to their intuitive and visually appealing design. All products are built to deliver high ROI and impact. Our leaders are empowered by their team's results and their 360 feedback on how to increase team performance and lead with inclusion. The analysis happens in real-time, so no waiting around for the results. You can drill down into your results, apply demographic segmentation easily, understand your focus areas, and get the most comprehensive recommendations for your action plans. Reports are an easy click away, and you can download the raw data at any time while supporting anonymity! And their customer success is second to none with their exceptional level of support!

Cons

I can't think of anything in particular. They are always asking for feedback to improve and progress the platform - and deliver! Their people analytics, leadership development, and ERG effectiveness provide significant value to us, our culture, and our internal HR and DEI teams.

### "We use Fortay to prescreen job applicants and also monthly to measure our teams engagement. "

August 15, 2017

4.0

Pre screening for culture fit with new job applicants as well as engagement monitoring for our current team

Pros

The Engagement tool is great for us to keep a pulse on how the team is feeling and how engagement changes over time and through our companies changes. We also love the open ended comments, as we get insight that we may not otherwise get.

Cons

There are often bugs (which is par for the course with any start up) but this is always immediately remedied by the team at Fortay. Customer Success is very important to them!

### "Fortay review"

August 1, 2019

5.0

Our main goal at the company is to maintain a culture that thrives on our values. The employee voice pulse helps us to do so by weeding out any areas of concerns in order to increase productivity/ morale amongst other values.

Pros

The simplistic layout of the dashboard and headings. The vibrant colors are not overwhelming but encourages me to follow up on the pulse within the company. I loved the flexibility of the surveys that could be customized and the fact that sample questions were included. Being able to view past results of workplace engagement helped me to see if the improvements that I had implemented were effective or not.

Cons

With regards to this specific area, there was not a thing that I did not like.

### "Value Add"

July 9, 2019

4.0

The experience has been good. It provides us with a means to understand what our current employees want in a corporate culture which in turn helps us find talent that "fits".

Pros

The data is presented in a way that is easy to understand.

Cons

It would be nice if it integrated better into our existing recruiting platform. Meaning, not having to create job postings in Fortay, but instead our postings being able to filter in to Fortay.

### "Fortay is a key tool for us to solidify our culture as we rapidly scale our team."

August 15, 2017

5.0

Pros

One of the strongest data driven people tools I've seen, delivering statistically valid pulses to employees that can be directly overlaid with candidates in the hiring pipeline.

Cons

Would love to see new features that articulate gaps or areas a candidate may not succeed in based on company and individual cultural profiles.
