Performance Metrics
Define evaluation criteria once and use them consistently across all reviews.
Consistent Evaluation Criteria
Performance metrics are the criteria you use to evaluate employees during reviews. They define what you're measuring—whether it's technical skills, communication, leadership, or other competencies. Once created, metrics are available to use in review stages.
Define Once, Use Everywhere
Create your performance metrics once and use them consistently across all review cycles. Everyone is evaluated using the same criteria.
Flexible Rating Scales
Choose from numeric scales, binary options, or custom rating scales that fit your organization's evaluation style.
Track Progress Over Time
Compare performance across review cycles to see how employees are developing and improving over time.

How It Works
Create performance metrics that define how employees are evaluated, then use them in review stages throughout your review cycles.
1. Define Your Metrics
Create metrics with names, descriptions, and rating scales. Examples include "Quality of Work", "Communication Skills", or "Leadership".
2. Choose Rating Scales
Select from numeric scales (1-5, 1-10), binary options (Yes/No, Meets/Does Not Meet), or custom scales that match your evaluation style.
3. Use in Review Stages
Attach metrics to review stages. Managers and employees can then rate performance using these consistent criteria.
