Cornerstone Performance Reviews & Product Details

It's very feature rich and seems capable of handling complex processes. If you're considering implementing this then I highly recommend you have a dedicated admin who can focus purely on maintaining the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I genuinely don't understand how this has such good reviews. The system is incredibly complex and difficult to navigate as an admin. It's simple from an end-user standpoint, but any admin change seems hard to implement and figure out without extensive training.

The UI is incredibly outdated and awkward to use. The system design seems stuck in the early 2010s and seems mismatched - some areas appear more modern like the screenshots on this site, but others are really basic and old - I've even found standard templates for custom pages on the system that haven't been updated since 2017. Creating a custom page that looks somewhat modern requires some HMTL knowledge, otherwise you need to use the UI page builder which is a nightmare. There's no way to resize the editing window, so you're stuck trying to create and edit a web page using a tiny screen. Previewing the page doesn't seem to work all the time and is just generally awkward to use.

Some basic reports/dashboards are not included as part of the system, so you need to create them yourself from scratch. Even something as basic as seeing how many people have added a goal vs how many haven't was not included when we launched the system. We were simply directed to a community page containing "recommended reports" and were expected to build custom dashboards ourselves for basic reporting requirements. If you have a list of recommended reports then why are they not simply included as templates?

Overall, the system is incredibly powerful but needlessly complicated to implement and manage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is easy for managers and HR to track the progress of their employees ensuring training and performance are tracked all in one place. It is easy to assign and define how to track everything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It does take a little bit to learn and setup on the admin side of things. Once you get it down though and learn the lingo for creation and set up you are good to go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would 1st start with the amazing customer support which they offer , Customized dashboards , amazing features and what not Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In our case the integration process took little more time , which I think needs to be improved Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I enjoy being able to use HTML to further customize instructions. It's very helpful to be able to include different due dates on different steps. I appreciate the ability to set visibility and when stuff becomes visible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Everything has to be done on an individual level. If you want calibration to be controlled by a small group, it's really difficult for large companies because if you have a lot of changes, you can't make them in mass. You can only make changes in a report if it's only the overall rating rather than smaller ratings inside sections. Right now we have one person making hundreds of changes. Being able to branch in a performance review would be super helpful so you can give certain folks certain questions.

Reminder emails for feedback would be so helpful.

A draft button for performance reviews would be so helpful when setting up performance review, so you can slowly make a review in multiple sessions rather than one sitting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You can create any task you need with different sections and assign it to different roles. Also the goals management is very complete with the possibility to see them inside performance tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One you launch a task you can remove it. only hide it. There is no a big problem but in some cases can be a little confuse when you have lots of perfomance tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are many things that I like about Cornerstone Performance. What I like best about Performance is how the process flows from employee to manager and still allows for conversations and integrates the Check Ins but the process is completely digital. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall, Cornerstone Performance is a great product. If I could improve something it would be making it a little easier for non-admins and tech savvy people to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
