March 10, 2023

5.0

Pros

It's amazing how easy yet impactful it is to monitor employee performance and interact with individuals in you network.

Cons

Up until now, everything has been smooth sailing and I haven't encountered any problems while using it.

### "Leapsome gave us a way to hold 360s that worked with our unique company structure"

September 2, 2020

5.0

Previously all feedback was given via Excel sheets, which made it really tricky to keep track of. People found it tedious to give feedback in this way, and it was also creating issues with transparency because everyone was conscious of how the data was being forwarded through HR. It felt strange that as a forward-thinking software company, we were using outdated methods for our internal processes. But we also found it difficult to standardise processes within our unique company structure. We found Leapsome easy to roll out incrementally, and were relieved by how enjoyable it was to use – people finally felt engaged with their HR processes. It’s halved the amount of time our HR team spend on these processes, and because there’s more ongoing communication between teams we all have a better idea of our roles and feel more engaged.

Pros

The platform makes it possible for us to run 360 peer reviews as we want to, and encourages our employees to give each other ongoing feedback. It’s made our HR processes not only more efficient but also more transparent. The tool was surprisingly simple to roll out, and there was a really positive response from the managers and employees – so now we’re looking at using the rest of Leapsome’s features, like 1-on-1 meetings and engagement surveys. We were also very impressed by the Leapsome customer team, who visibly incorporated our feedback into the platform before we had even decided to use it! They were the only tool that we could see were seriously passionate about acting on feedback themselves, and their answers to our support requests have been consistently prompt and helpful.

Cons

We have had some minor, short-term issues, such as where to find a particular setting in the app and we have a few requests for new features, however, every time we see anything like this, the Leapsome product team is always quick to respond and improve the platform based on our suggestions.

Reason for choosing Leapsome

What mainly convinced us was the great customer service. They even implemented one small feature request we had during the sales cycle with us, when we were not even a customer yet. This made the decision!

### "Leapsome - Perhaps too open ended?"

October 18, 2024

3.0

Leapsome has a very high variety of features, and we needed a software that has a few things 1. Employee feedback and reviews 2. Employee and business goals 3. Employee learning development It does a large variety of things, and does them mostly well, but it is clear that a lot of the software is not very well thought out which causes me problems, as the admin. I am often left struggling to explain why something is one way, or why I can't do something I think seems obvious. Once you decide how to set it up and use it as you wish, it works quite well if you have an active admin. The company advertises the software as open-ended and to be used as you wish, but this creates a problem as when you try to do things your way you often find you run into problems that the designers hadn't thought of. Quite often I would try to do something one way, only to realise it wouldn't work for some odd reason and have to start back at square one. The customer support is very helpful when you do have a problem (and you probably will)

Pros

1\. It is good as an employee database, you can store a lot of data about your employees 2. Leapsome works well together, all of the different modules operate together. for example, instant feedback can be referred to in a 121 manager review. Competencies reviewed on a manager review can also be reviewed in instant feedback. 3. Once you have the goals set up, they work quite well numerically - parent goals can have a number of child goals below them, and the average percentage completion of the child goals makes up the parent goals. This works well if your goals are strictly numerical 4. The review system works well, once it is set up. You can automate it so that review cycles go out with managers reviewing their subordinates on their competencies, and employees reviewing each other etc.. This all works quite well together, and in a review you can see past instant feedback (which is the way to give feedback outside of a review cycle) 5. The customer service is very nice and helpful, and have helped me work through complex problems on numerous occasions In fact, the instant feedback feature is probably the most useful feature for us, despite it being the simplest.

Cons

1\. The 'learning' module leaves a lot to be desired. The due dates work weirdly, which is hard to explain if you have never used it but it's basically a non-feature - the due dates do not really work. The UI/UX of completing a learning 'path' (as they call it) is quite poor. It is very basic and the only real customisability you have is a rich text editor. That's it. There is no option to add a preview image for an article for example. The quizzes are very basic in the options you have - they must be multiple choice, and the answers must be text. All you can change is the amount of correct and incorrect answers. The 'tasks' are just a check-box. That's it. 2. Goals I wanted to set 8 different numerical goals for each employee at my company, which update weekly with their progress. We have the numerical data. But, the only way on Leapsome to update a goal is to do so manually - there is no API. So, I am forced to manually update all the goals every week (in the hundreds). This is a waste of my time but necessary

### "A great evolving app for everything HR management. "

September 7, 2021

5.0

Pros

The sales and customer service from leapsome is second to none! They're a developing company, "new" to the market, but they are pushing out new features every month! If you have an issue they're just one ticket away, and reply within 2 hours normally, always helpful. The tool works great too, it makes sense :)

Cons

I think the performance management feature could use more customisation, but i know they are working on bringing the best features to the biggest amount of users.

### "A comprehensive platform for performance management and employee growth"

December 24, 2024

5.0

Leapsome is an excellent choice for companies (medium to large size) that are looking to improve the performance management, employee development and engagement. It stands out for its comprehensive feature set, ease of use and ability to drive culture of continuous feedback and growth.

Pros

Leapsome's performance management tools are one of the key strengths about the product, it allows for setting a personalized objectives and key results and regular check-ins. The tools are designed to ensure employees receive continuous feedback and be able to track the progress of the goals. Leapcome also enables the enterprise to implement L&D strategies very effectively, with the individual development plans and goal tracking features, it empowers the employees to take charge of their career growth. The customization and Reporting are great options in Leapsome that allows the enterprise to adapt the platform to fit our specific needs in every department.

Cons

The pricing is higher compared to other platforms in the market, especially if the enterprise would need to have advanced features, then this will have a huge impact on the total pricing structure. The platform is generally easy to use, however for some departments we noticed that not all the employees were able to fully utilize all of its features.

May 8, 2025

4.0

Pros

The tool uses AI to help with the management of employees. The AI insight helps to fulfill the need for using a product with AI built into it.

Cons

The UI is modern looking, however I find it a bit difficult to locate the required data. Overall it takes me a little too much time to complete the required tasks.

### "User-Friendly Interface and Great Support"

December 25, 2024

4.0

What really captivates me is its robust assemblage of software functions. Chief among these is the goal-setting module. If you want your objectives to align seamlessly with those of your teams and organization, then you need to set up not just a set of clear goals but also a conversation around those goals.

Pros

Leapsome's standout quality is its user-friendly interface.

Cons

A couple of weaknesses could be mentioned, perhaps—the learning curve and the limited mobile app consultation—but I think it’s safe to call Leapsome a powerful platform for something I like to think more than just a few companies at this point are aspiring to: A culture of continuous improvement, a more engaged workforce, and as some of our friends from Leapsome might put it, “substantial benefits when implemented thoughtfully.”

### "Contribute effectively to enhancing employee capabilities & transparently assessing performance"

February 23, 2023

5.0

By constantly monitoring everyone's progress, Leapsome helped raise productivity across the board. We also benefited greatly from the use of auditing tools in laying out strategies and reaching our objectives. Every survey helps us work together with management to make decisions that enhance productivity.

Pros

Leapsome lets us centralize performance management and development, which boosts employee engagement and ensures openness in procedures and audits. We can create and run surveys to help management and staff make the best decisions. It's excellent that we developed ways to exchange remarks between tiers while maintaining privacy. Leapsome enables us to specify who gives feedback, which makes all functional relationships clear to all. We can also organize performance review sessions with line managers to discuss interim plans and goals and formalize observations.

Cons

There are not many negatives to report, but it seems that Leapsome integrates with a limited number of programs, which is a hindrance to using it for more functions.

I really have a boost when using Leapsome, I love small animations which are popping up when you do an action, I love the colours and the modern design, I am also using it for the meeting notes and agenda.

Pros

I love the friendly setup of the platform and the simplicity of use, mostly I use it for the praising the colleagues and it does solve a lot regarding giving positive feedback and having mood boost

Cons

I am not sure how to use the app for the performance tracking, otherwise nothing is lacking

### "A great tool, simple but very powerful. "

August 12, 2022

5.0

Pros

What I value most about the tool is the simplicity with which you can manage complex issues such as performance review, employee follow-up, objectives, etc. In addition, with Leapsome you can be relaxed and forget about tracking your tasks because its notifications make your life easier. Thanks to Leapsome we are now closer to our employees, we make career path reviews more professional and efficient, among many other things. In addition, they have a great customer service team. They have a very agile and close attention. I recommend it 100%!

Cons

It would be interesting if they would allow to make a more detailed company and employee organization chart, to help remote companies to have a centralized site where to see the detail of all the teams and employees.

April 23, 2024

2.0

Pros

Surveys, Reviews, and performance evaluations for tutors.

Cons

Unfair terms presented for renewal. Beat around the bush to reduce from 100 licenses to 30 licenses, since we are only using about 14. It is unfair because we won't be using it for a whole 3 months during the summer and do not know the certainty of the next school year. Made us lock into another contract without letting us know of a renewal for a whole year. Waste of money.

August 17, 2022

Overall experience with Leapsome have been amazing, with the help of leapsome we are able to centralise all the performance management goal setting and are also able to automate it to a large extent.

Pros

What I like the most about the product, is the range of things that it cover related to performance management , goal setting , dashboard, analytics, reviews etc

Cons

Since Leapsome covers so many operations, its somewhat harder to implement and introduce to the team as compared to other solutions.

The idea is great but the product quality is so low. The flows are not optimised, UI is ugly, it seems that Leapsome itself doesn't use this app or these "improvements" are too low in their priorities list. would not recommend.

Pros

Helps to get and receive feedback remotely.

Cons

User experience and bugs. Clunky piece of a software.
