Reviews Built Around Project Cycles and Core Competencies

Create concurrent review processes that bring goal completion and core competencies into every review form. Align project-based review cycles with project completion so employees receive structured evaluations when the work is most fresh, not months later. 

Connects to Your HRIS, SSO, and Messaging Tools

PerformYard connects directly to your HRIS and messaging tools like Slack and Microsoft Teams. Every employee logs in using single sign-on (SSO) for simplicity and security, without adding new credentials to their workflow. See all supported HRIS and tool integrations

Frequently Asked Questions

What is IT performance management software?

IT performance management software is a platform that helps IT services firms and technology companies run structured employee reviews, track goals, and document performance across technical and non-technical roles. The best tools for IT teams support project-aligned review timing, bring core competencies into evaluation forms, and connect to the HRIS and communication tools teams already use.

How does PerformYard handle project-based reviews for IT services teams?

PerformYard lets you align review cycles to project or sprint completion rather than a fixed calendar window. Different teams can run separate review processes simultaneously with custom questions and timing for each, so feedback arrives when it is most relevant to the work.

Can PerformYard bring technical skills and competencies into performance reviews?

Yes. PerformYard lets you include core competencies and technical skills directly in review forms alongside standard performance questions. Goal completion is visible to reviewers during the evaluation, giving managers a clear picture of both what employees accomplished and how they performed against defined expectations.

How does PerformYard integrate with IT company tools like Slack, Teams, and HRIS systems?

PerformYard integrates with major HRIS platforms including BambooHR, ADP, Rippling, Workday, and others, and connects to Slack and Microsoft Teams for real-time recognition and feedback. Every employee accesses the platform through single sign-on so there are no additional logins to manage across your tech stack.

How long does implementation take for an IT services firm?

Most IT services firms are up and running within a few weeks. Every PerformYard customer gets a dedicated customer success manager at no extra cost who handles process design, employee training, and first-cycle launch.
