The myriad different functions available within the performance module make it possible to implement basically any solution or process that you want to. From competencies to goals, it is all poissible! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can be a little "steppy" to assemble all of the pieces, since many functions cannot be built "inline." The functions are good, just tedious to create. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The performance forms allow flexibility in the content order and assignment of workflows to support quarterly conversations. We were able to transition to a much simpler approach, with option to include/exclude rating in alignment with business needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We were challenged with the fact that we were rolling out with agile methodology over 12 months. There are some restrictions on what can be changed as we learn and want to respond to users experiences. Will need to reset on some items with lessons learned as we start new year for 2021 quarterly conversations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Consolidated our training offerings in one system and have the ability to provide reports for compliance. Updates to CSOD have helped with employee engagement and will continue to influence employees' development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

All of the ways you can find answers, the system capabilities, and ability to report on the data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The new Check-Ins tool is great, I like the ease of access to the stated individual goals, development plans, etc. Transparency of the notes captured in 1:1s and on the fly documentation is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the ideas we wanted to implement were difficult. To make goals editable the whole system is open to edits for each person vs. just an individual. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cornerstone has a lot of features and allows the solution to be adapted to many use cases. We've had good luck with training from the sales team to get started. There's a learning curve, but after an in person training, we felt comfortable setting this up for our organization. Getting the process off of paper, and making it easier too encourage coaching and planning have been excellent use cases for us. Making use of workflows and notifications have made communications with employees much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's not perfect out of the box, and really requires full time support to make use of the product. We've also ran into some issues when working with tech support that have left issues to linger longer than we'd like. Managing some items as an admin have been overly complicated as well. Also, if the entire organization doesn't follow the same performance process (for example, we have some classifications of employees that use a different timeline for their cycle) it becomes a bit of a burden to manage--it's possible but not simple to set up. Also a few things like the inability to delete items (and only hide them from view) clogs up the backend. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the fact that we get to go paperless utilizing Cornerstone Performance! We have had Cornerstone Performance since 2011 and going paperless has been an evolutionary process. The system has many ways you can approach performance. I have no doubt that every company can find a performance solution within the tool. One of the best outcomes for us is that we have all complete reviews in one area and we can report on it too! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are so many options on how things could set up and it takes time to test, sometimes the time it takes to get through system testing accurately is a bit long. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CS Performance has allowed our company to go to a completely electronic performance review system with 5000+ team members in the last 18 months. We were paper based prior to this and this system was very cumbersome and inefficient. CS has allowed a smooth, consistent way to provide feedback through the requirement of documentation for corrective actions and performance reviews. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The biggest hurdle was building the system that would work for our system and then to get by in from the managers. Once we did this, education and user acceptance was the most difficult, due to the majority of our team members not having access to computers and emails on a daily basis. We are still struggling, but it's getting better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Intuitive for users to get around and complete. From a system admin standpoint it also is very easy to navigate. The fact that they are always looking for innovating and adding new features is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some things have been forgotten in terms of updating (i.e. checklists). I wish they would go back and provide new update versions of fix certain things that are bugs or wishes from the community vs focusing on just trying to do a lot at the same time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that I can track performance multiple times a year to truly connect with my employees. Their mindset changes constantly, and engaging with them through this tool is very helpful to keep them happy. I can see what their wants, needs, and desires are and can help them see the opportunities the may have and can help grow them from those. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not so many dislikes and maybe I don't know how to do it yet, but after completing a review I would love to have recommended challenges or trainings or examples on how to further engage. Although we don't have a ton of content in the system yet, maybe this will help drive us in that direction when we get it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As an administrator the Cornerstone system is easy to use and very intuitive. Many of our administrators were able to learn on their own, myself included. However, if you need training there are so many resources on their site, and training opportunities within the Success Center. Some of the new offerings like "Learn It Live" are very valuable tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The thing I dislike about Cornerstone is some of the reporting capabilities. If you are use to a BI tool or sql features, the reporting will not be up to that level (without an additional cost). While they are trying to better the reporting with Reporting 2.0, there will need to be some additional development with that tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
