### "Leapsome is characterized by its simplicity and user-oriented design"

March 10, 2023

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

### "Leapsome works well for our reviews"

March 8, 2026

5.0

Leapsome has helped me not to be consumed by spreadsheets on my desktop/computer and that the reminders are sent automatically so I do not have to run around the hallways trying to track people down to get signatures.

Pros

As I type, I am looking at a stack of paper copies of HR documents that I need to file however, I was able to schedule 50 reviews in 5 minutes anyway. I have to admit, I was relieved that the "scoring" feature did not fail when I generated a performance report for the boss today. Now everything (self-reflection) that is related to performance reporting is in one place, therefore I do not have to open up a hundred email attachments every time I want to view someones history.

Cons

The logo on the home page appears to be way to small and appears to be ridiculously small. Additionally, I dislike how many times you have to click before viewing a brief history of someone's previous goals. My manager asked me a question in the comment area and there was no option to respond to him, thus I was forced to generate a completely new comment to simply answer his single question which was frustrating.

### "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

### "Leapsome is a great tool for meetings preparations / track of the notes "

October 29, 2025

4.0

Overall, the tool is great, it can be used for for so many different purposes for meetings preparations for taking the notes for tracking the goals results and for appreciation :)

Pros

Leapsome is good for several things: - you can keep a track on all of your meeting notes - you can prepare better for meetings, calls - you can track goals, key results there - appreciating part is my favorite :) - easy to implement surveys

Cons

Text formating: - sometimes it's hard to edit, save text there, create several lines within one text box. - sometimes when you are making changes in the text, they are not saved

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.

### "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.

### "A truly happy customer"

March 4, 2020

5.0

We got into Leapsome from the Goal management angle. We are a Digital Commerce implementation agency; we use Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) and we need a tool to handle the multiple goals we define. We used another one before, which was then bought by a bigger company and shut down. We got really flustered about it, but it was truly a blessing in disguise, as it led us to switch to Leapsome. We found it \*instantly\* better than the previous platform, in absolutely ALL aspects. We ended up very satisfied with the OKRs management and fall in love with the rest of the platform, particularly performance reviews and employee engagement. It is a breeze to understand, it is clear that it has a lot of love and dedication behind, and an utterly talented team working on it, whom unarguably know what they are doing. ALL features are useful, there are no "fillers" here. The team is fantastically helpful, the few times we had some questions or small issues, we got not only answers but actual solutions in no time.

Pros

A heck of a value for your hard-earned dollars. The performance reviews system is second to none in this galaxy, and probably beyond it too. The OKR features are well balanced, in a sweet spot between "too basic" and "too complicated". The platform also covers the so-much-need CFRs (conversations, feedback and recognition) mechanisms without which the OKRs would be useless.

Cons

I promise you that I spent more time thinking about this than about the good things. The pros are clear and evident, but I couldn't find cons, I swear. This says a lot.

August 17, 2022

5.0

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.

### "A very useful tool for performance management "

August 19, 2022

5.0

It is a useful tool that offers a lot of flexibility for users looking to measure performance against objectives and goals. It can be used daily while still allowing users to track performance for goals.

Pros

Measuring performance becomes easier for teams like ours that are entirely remote. What I particularly like about Leapsome is the way it lets me manage the meeting agendas, keeping track of all objectives decided earlier and the progress on them.

Cons

I would say integrating objectives from different meetings together should be a useful feature to add.

### "Leapsome is great value with lots of flexible features"

March 30, 2020

5.0

We grew really quickly over the last few years and our COO wanted to put the right software in place to ensure that we could create a consistent experience across the company. Previously, some managers would run great processes with their teams but as everything was run using Excel and Powerpoint it was not uniform for everyone.

Pros

Before Leapsome, our previous processes were done with Excel and Powerpoint but this led to an inconsistent experience. With Leapsome, we now have a uniform experience for every employee for their annual performance reviews and it has introduced a lot more structure to the way we set and manage our company-wide goals. We’re really happy with the platform and will be making use of the automated probation period reviews soon so that new employees also get good feedback.

Cons

We’re really happy with the platform and anytime we have had any small issues or questions the customer support team has always solved them for us really quickly.

August 6, 2020

5.0

The support is very helpful. There is good communication between the assigned contact partner, that is always willing to share best practices. I really like the Leapsome content (I enjoy the blog!), their philosophy and mission.

Pros

Overall I find Leapsome and all its features very useful and supports a full range of activities that are crucial for employee engagement. The meeting feature enabled us to create more organized meetings and follow-ups. Secondly surveys and analytics, gives a great user experience and great insights to actionable feedback. Finally, I really love the fact that Leapsome is living up to their values and is continuously developing and improving.

Cons

The integration of development talks with Google Calendar, and I would find very useful - implementation of an internal calendar for everyone to have an overview of ongoing or/and scheduled Leapsome activities: meetings, 1:1, development talks
