"Intuitive UI with Powerful Integration Features"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Performio?

I think the UI of Performio is very intuitive and easy, making it simple to follow. I like how there's detail on my individual page with the sales connections, particularly with Salesforce, so all of my opportunities are in one place. The dashboard is nice for seeing things at a high level, and the leaderboard helps me compare where I fall in the organization, which is really useful. These features are valuable because they allow me to check in daily or weekly to see where I stand, and it's a good way to view visuals in a summary format. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Performio?

Nothing in particular honestly! It's been a very useful tool Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Mostly Straightforward UX, With a Few Confusing Areas"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Performio?

Some of the user experience is straight forward and easily understandable. But some parts of it are not. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Performio?

Sometimes when I think certain information should show it, it doesn't. It's not easily understandable how to fix it or get the information to show up. It keeps track of my revenue and sometimes it just easier to ask management or a specific department for the information I'm looking for Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good Performance Tracking with Some Navigation Challenges"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Performio?

I like that Performio offers graphs as well as data tables, which provide another option for viewing my data and how I perform over larger periods. It's easy to set up, and setting and changing passwords is also pretty simple, which is nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Performio?

I think the sidebar options could be improved, navigating raw targets can sometimes be difficult to find. I wish there was an algorithm which accurately displays our true targets, as the targets shown are normally a bit less than the actual ones, and we have to go into the Excel spreadsheet of individual data points and add everything together to get the actual target. The website it better than the app though, the app is very glitchy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient Commission Tracking with Quick Access"

4/5

What do you like best about Performio?

I use Performio for work and business to keep track of our commissions. I appreciate how it handles easy commission logistics and data. I like that it's easy to use, smooth, and not laggy, which is great because if I need to check something quickly, I won’t be held back or delayed. Plus, it's never down. The initial setup was easy as I got a login and ID and just changed the password. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Performio?

How fast it updates, sometimes it can take a couple of days. Everyday would be nice but sometimes it's every 2-3 days. I understand public holidays though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
