## Chronus Mentoring Reviews
  ### 1. City of Seattle Flash Mentoring

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sandra W. | Workforce Development Program Coordinator, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 14, 2024

**What do you like best about Chronus Mentoring?**

Chronus is good at ease of use.  The screens are intuitive and easy to follow.  The customer success team is good at responding to our questions and attending our regular status meetings.  The dashboards and informatics are very nice and show the progression of the program's impact.  The mentor/mentee matching structure is very good.  The customizable fields and reports are good.

**What do you dislike about Chronus Mentoring?**

There are a few things that I should get more information about before answering this, but I think that it is a bit confusing with the tracks and where the tracks need to be the same/aligned with other and where they can be different.  I see that Chronus acquired Imperative.  I just went through setting up a profile and can see that they start out with assessing my purpose which I assume is used to match me with a mentor.  I like that model as well.

**What problems is Chronus Mentoring solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We wanted to build on networking in a large governmental agencies to breakdown silos and build a culture of learning.  We wanted to help women and people of color be able to progress in their city careers to build on the diversity of the organization.

The Chronus platform is nimble and accessible to organizations of all sizes.

Chronus has the best of both worlds: ready to plug and play out of the box and tailored to meet the needs of any mentoring program.

  ### 8. Chronus provides a landscape to match and manage a mentorship program with great visibility.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tracy L. | Regional Vice President, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2021

**What do you like best about Chronus Mentoring?**

The Dashboard and Bulk Matching features were used quite frequently, and the beauty of the platform is that it is highly customizable for an ERG to launch a program of any size.

**What do you dislike about Chronus Mentoring?**

It is an undertaking to initiate and customize to the program design criteria.

**Recommendations to others considering Chronus Mentoring:**

The Chronus platform provides a great landscape to initiate, match and manage a mentorship program with great visibility.   Once underway, it allows the mentors and mentees to document their goals and progress.
The first steps will be just to understand the Chronus platform, and I would say that building the program falls into categories
PREP
•	Platform features and navigation
•	Timeline and reach
•	Consider the anticipated population  - - do you think you will have a 1:1 ratio for mentees/mentors, there are default settings for mentor capacity.
•	Questions - - the answers to the questioned posed to the population is the key driver in the match, so considered those.  We also added an About me section and the data there helped with our matches.
•	We chose a hybrid matching, where Chronus would suggest the % match, but as an admin,  review the suggestions and we selected that final match.  It was often what Chronus suggested; others were overridden based on other info provided.
MATCH
•	There are views and ways to bulk match, and you can also queue up a match before you officially publish a match
•	You also have to balance the requested mentors (if you are offering that) against what % match is that Chronus is suggesting
•	You can review all before you publish and can download to excel 
•	There are a lot of Chronus driven communications that we selected, and we worked as a team on the wording and timing, and settings
•	Not sure if this will impact you, but you may also want to consider location/time zones when matching
REVIEW
•	Chronus does provide several views to see the status of enrollment, match, and tools to offer
•	Once the matching is completed, you can get post-activity stats to assess your population’s engagement
•	Your members can also use Chronus to review and chronicle their progress with their partners.
•	We hosted pre-calls to explain the program and  how the tool works and suggest check-in meetings periodically

There is a big responsibility in overseeing the matching because you want every match to be meaningful.

**What problems is Chronus Mentoring solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Managing a reach of over 1200 with over 250 participants, Chronus was highly effective in expanding our program to our growth goals.  Management is easy now that it is in place and can onboard new participants easily at any time.
