The Performance Suite is a reliable set of rules and best practices. It works super well if your performance and cultural needs are closely aligned with Cornerstone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Cornerstone Performance? This system is not designed to custom fit for small companies. Selling this product to companies without a comp analyst and system admin on staff is borderline negligent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Cornerstone Performance: Know your needs before you buy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Cornerstone Performance solving and how is that benefiting you? Our company was not prepared to make the performance and cultural expectation changes needed to adopt this system. That lack of preparedness made a messy implementation (no fault of bluewater) and an impossible adoption process. It works well in very specific use cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
