**Reviewed Date:** August 04, 2022

Accurate data driven research and the the things that I was looking for. I got them accurately and I would like to stay with Joan for a long time as they are very helpful.

There was nothing to dislike about koan. Everything was done in a proper manner and I loved it. But the communication could have been better I guess with the emails and all.

They should use it.

**What problems is Koan solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Market research and other things that I couldn't solve and I needed a data for the research and that's how koan helped me out in the market research and I was glad.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 16, 2021

**Describe the project or task Koan helped with:**

We are using Koan on our team to follow up on the objectives we've been working on with the Hiring team.

It helps have the team updated on what is each of the members of a group is dealing with and if they need help with any specific task or situation.
You can use Koan as a tool to have an accountable track record.

**What do you dislike about Koan?**

Sometimes it feels it can be a repetitive task. The main problem that might come up is that people tend to have their weekly koan evaluations the same week after week.

**Recommendations to others considering Koan:**

I would recommend having a demo or a 1-month trial to understand if this tool is what you are expecting.

**What problems is Koan solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It helps you to keep a track record of what people have been working on, problems they came up with, and helping with reviews at the end of the quarter.
