FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is continuous feedback software?

Continuous feedback software is a tool that lets managers and employees share feedback throughout the year rather than waiting for scheduled review cycles. It captures real-time notes, peer input, and recognition as work happens. Over time, this builds a running record of performance that makes reviews more accurate and less stressful for everyone involved.

How do you create a continuous feedback loop?

A continuous feedback loop starts by making feedback easy to give on a regular basis. Managers and employees should be able to leave notes, send recognition, and request peer feedback without going through a formal process. Pairing that with regular 1:1s and goal check-ins builds feedback into the normal rhythm of work rather than treating it as a separate task.

How does continuous feedback fit into PeformYard’s performance management system?

Continuous feedback in PerformYard connects directly to goals, reviews, and reporting in one platform. Feedback notes tie to the goals employees are working on and surface automatically during review cycles. Every piece of feedback collected throughout the year becomes useful context when review time comes.

What types of feedback can be collected and tracked?

PerformYard supports manager feedback, peer feedback requests, public recognition, team feedback, and private manager notes. All feedback is stored in a searchable history. Managers and employees can reference it during 1:1s or at review time without relying on memory.

Can PerformYard integrate with our existing HR systems?

PerformYard integrates with most major HRIS platforms to keep employee data current without manual syncing. It also supports SSO for fast, secure login and connects with Slack and Microsoft Teams so recognition and feedback reach employees where they already work.

How is continuous feedback different from a performance review?

A performance review is a formal evaluation that happens on a set schedule. Continuous feedback is everything that happens in between: the notes, recognition, and observations that build the context a good review depends on. Used together, they give managers and employees a complete picture of performance over time.

Does continuous feedback software work for remote or hybrid teams?

Yes. Continuous feedback software works especially well for remote and hybrid teams because it replaces the informal feedback moments that disappear when people are not in the same room. PerformYard keeps remote performance visible year-round through recognition in Slack, peer feedback requests, and shared notes that any manager can access from anywhere.
