StaffCircle Reviews

I used StaffCircle in my previous role and the company used the solution to communicate with our non-desk employees, to record and track holidays, run reports on compliancy (for example risk assessments, work permits etc.) and also for our performance management.

It has been great because we didn’t have to change our current annual appraisals, instead, we were able to align One2One reviews/check-ins with it. This means a more continuous approach to performance management which helps us see what is going well and what we need to improve.

Nothing to note. I know from working with the champion there was the initial set up for your risk assessments, but once that’s done compliancy and trackability are very easy.

I like the appearance of the system and that it is similar to a social media profile with a news feed and notifications. I really like how easy it is to keep up with internal communications from around the business and that you get a notification email for new content.

The performance review section could be easier to use from an employee point of view - its not always clear where you need to respond/save comments.

IT HELPS ALL EMPLOYEES TO VIEW AND COMMUNICATE WITH ALL BRANCHES OF THE COMPANY IN A SAFE AND VIEWED INVIROMENT.

CANT FAULT IT MUCH AT THIS POINT, EXCITED TO USE MORE AND GET MORE FAMILIER WITH THE PROGRAM.

Employee Awards
Asset Management
Communication Feeds

Not being able to automate things without using a 3rd party software which costs a lot of money is an issue.

I like that StaffCircle feels very user friendly. Viewing company news is very similar to using some forms of social media making it engaging and easy to use.

It's also really helpful that you can see if your holiday requests overlap with another team member. I like that you can connect channels such as our payslip portal which makes it really easy to find important information in one place.

It would be good if it was possible to see the holiday of all staff at the same time. As I work with lots of teams across the company it would be good to use StaffCircle to see who is on leave quickly before setting up meetings.

As an end user StaffCircle is easy to navigate and make use of.
I mainly make use of the HR Resources, Staff Directory and Internal Communications aspect of StaffCircle and have found all of them user friendly and useful.
Specifically the Internal Communications feature, although similar results could be achieved with email threads or team channels, StaffCircle presents the information in one easy to find location and allows for greater recognition. A congratulations message about someone's promotion will quickly get lost in a company email but in StaffCircle it is not only set apart from the normal day to day workings of the company but provides a nicer way to recognise talent throughout our company.

As an end user I don't really see any negatives to StaffCircle, I have not had much experience with similar products on the market so also can't make much of a comparison.

good for sharing communications between all employees in the organisation

sometimes having different boards for business messages, social messages can lead to some things being missed

The ease of use and how it is very visual. It is very self-explanatory and i can do multiple things on one platform, such as booking holiday, viewing internal communications and looking at my performance.

I think at first, the notifications were the least favorable as i was receiving multiple per day. However, the employee team worked with staff circle to solve this issue and now we only receive the notifications needed.

easy to use and very informative with easy access to everything i need in one place

nothing.................................................

Easy to post content and notify the relevant people.

There is no application for iPhone (that I can see).

Easy to access and use particularly when allocating time off

nothing it adequately work for me and other staff members

I like the communication and holidays section

initial Onboarding process filling out spreadsheet should just pout straight on to the portal as there is errors and missing information.
No training matrix.
Filing not straight forward.
Mirror the app from myself to manage.

Attention to detail and customer service.

I can't always alter items on my own, sometimes updates impact my profiles functionality.

The layout is easy to use and you can easily navigate around.

I cant say I find any real faults with StaffCircle for what we use it for. it does what I need it for.

StaffCircle is a great communication tool for distributing news letters and information within the business. The ability to book holiday and create reviews works well.

Can be a bit clunky when inputting overtime. Must be willing to spend time learning how the system works.

The ease of use is the main reason I like to use it.

I would prefer if there was an option to update holiday requests once made.

The platform is easy to navigate but few people in an organisation will need to access all of the features so I don’t know what they do

Experience of using site is dull, completing weekly surveys is quick but there’s no interaction with the platform so it doesn’t fit seamlessly into the schedule

Ease of use, nice lay out, staff maanagment

Nothing, it all runs well
Visually pleasing, easy to use, click the buttons that track progress

I find having leave and appraisals in one platform a great time saver.

It took a few times of logging in to get used to but find once it becomes familiar.

The engagement and availability of personal updates and requests.

The attachments and links can be a little more clearer on the sight via a new notification

Daily updates on what is happening across the business

Why is overtime logged as an absence request?

News Feed - Easy to use, clear and well presented. Keeps us up to date on everything going on at work.

Holiday - It would be helpful to be able to see at a glace when others on your team have booked holiday.
Overtime in Absence section - Not easy to use.
