What do you dislike about SuccessFinder?

It's a lot of info that can be quite intimidating unless you are a super user Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from David Vero of SuccessFinder

Fraser, your positive feedback is greatly appreciated and I couldn't agree more about the Advanced-Level training! Transitioning from the SF certification to the Advanced-Level certification significantly accelerated my understanding of behavioral science. I hope to see you in the Expert-Level training in the near future!

"An actionnable psychometric test for hiring and developing employees"
4.5/5
What do you like best about SuccessFinder?

We have been using Sucessfinder for few years to manage our psychometric assesments. I can trully say it is one of the strongest psychometric tool I have ever used. It's accuracy to understand people's natural behavioral preferences is remarkable. As it is an A/B test, we can have strong insights about the people we decide to assess.

We mainly use Successfinder for these four purposes:

1. Hiring: The test allows us to have a more objective understanding of the candidates during the interview and to validate the fit not only with the company, but also with the position and the team.

2. People development: It helps us to aim the development targets for employees and adjust individual development plans. Furthermore, we use the test during our inhouse coaching. With the insights that the test brings, our understanding of the coached person is better and our coachings are more adapted.

3. Career exploration: We are striving to make this report available to all our employees to help them better understand their strengths, vocational incentives, lifestyle priorities and their top job family matches.

4. Team building: We also have used the Successfinder assessment a few times to analyze team portraits. This allowed us to better understand the strengths of each member of the teams but also the complementarity between the members, therefore guiding our intervention with the team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SuccessFinder?

There is nothing I dislike from this product. The richness of the information received from this test requires a well-trained person to interpret it properly. If you don't have someone with those skills in your organization, plenty of consultants will do it for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from David Vero of SuccessFinder

Thank you for the very kind and detailed review Stéphan! We are very happy to hear that you have no dislikes for the product but, that won't stop us from continuing to iterate and improve on it! :)

"The most actionnable psychometric test out there"
5/5
What do you like best about SuccessFinder?

Our executive team was initially skeptical about the efficacy of Psychometric Tests.

We have used other vendors in the past and the traditional tests usually put people in defined boxes (or colors like personality tests).

While some of the characteristics and traits of those defined box did fit with the profiles of our employees, most of our teammates felt the results were too black and white to be accurate. In consequence, they would not believe that the results truly reflected their whole personality and they would immediately distrust the usefulness of the results.

Successfinder's analysis proved to be much different.

By focusing on preferences of behaviors and regrouping these into a broad array of competencies, it was much easier to appreciate the nuances of each individual in their reports. The broader view allowed for teammates to concede that the Successfinder tests were significantly more accurate than previous tests we ran. In return, they became more open to coaching based on the predictive insights brought up by the data.

We initially opened to test to all our job candidates and the management team, but the reports were so insightful that we decided to open testing across the board a few weeks ago. And results are already starting to be noticed : some employees are considering moving into new roles and we are thinking about shifting the composition of certain teams.

I could not have hoped for a faster contribution to our internal decision-making process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SuccessFinder?

The science behind their product is amazing, but the design of the app feels out of date.

It was a bit of a hard sell to my executive team at the beginning because Successfinder does not leave a good first impression when looking at the current platform (June 2022). Especially when compared to other players out there.

Nevertheless, when my partners saw the predictive insights we got from the test reports, we agreed to concede on the design part and focus on the content.

They would however gain a lot of traction and ease the "internal selling" job of their leads by significantly improving their design system.

-------

The onboarding is also very sales-led. It's "hard" to buy more from them. You have to go through a sales/onboarding rep each time you'd like an upgrade or purchase a new training. Finally, documentation for self-help is scarce.

They should invest more in self-onboarding/support capabilities.

Trusting the savviness of their users would likely prove to be facilitating for their users and I predict that it would result in greater sales velocity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Psychometric Assessment with Science and Rigor"
5/5
What do you like best about SuccessFinder?

There is so much to like about SuccessFinder…where can I start?! First thing first, this is an amazing psychometric assessment system. As an industrial psychologist, I had the opportunity to use many assessment tools, and as far as I know, this is the most comprehensive and solid assessment on the market.

It is powerful as much in its descriptive capabilities as in its predictive ones. Hundreds of data points, millions of unique profiles, a large library of benchmarks, research-backed leadership levels - this is a huge amount of information in one single assessment, that will require only about 30 minutes to complete.

SuccessFinder provides information that can be applied to a large variety of talent management applications. I used it for selection, promotion, succession management, leadership development, team effectiveness and conflict mediation.

The accessibility and usability of the platform are easy and efficient. And I am really pleased to see that they are constantly investing in the development and improvement of the online platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SuccessFinder?

There is nothing I dislike at the moment. I started to use the SuccessFinder assessment system eight years ago and at the time the online system and the outputs needed much improvement. The current solution is miles better than it used to be and has so much more options and flexibility. I know they have a road map for product improvement/development, which adds to my confidence in the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from David Vero of SuccessFinder

Thank you for the positive feedback! SuccessFinder has come a long way since its initial inception and we are happy to hear that you have been able to use the assessment to its full potential.

Keep your eyes peeled as we have some great product updates coming down the pipeline!

"SuccessFinder practitioner as an independent coach and HR consultant"
4.5/5
What do you like best about SuccessFinder?

The rationality and fact-based approach to what has historically been more of an experienced-based and subjective decisions domain. No other tools on the market can predict career success with equal accuracy and reliability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SuccessFinder?

Because it is a complex tool, for assessing a complex subject (the human being), SF requires a lot of guidance, explanation and interpretation from the practitioner. This is not a self-evident tool, and a lot will be lost in the process if respondents or clients are left by themselves to consult the automated reports and/or conclusions.

5/5
What do you like best about SuccessFinder?

Insightful assessments with descriptive explanations. I really enjoy the online toolbox (easy to sort, focus on certain areas etc.) and the Coaching tips sections.

The service provided by the team is unparalleled. They strive to make it easier for the clients to understand, use and leverage SuccessFinder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SuccessFinder?

The Role Fit is a little generic and we would have liked to see roles like Management consultants, roles in analytics.

I would have liked an option to be able to easily select and print portions of data from the toolbox. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
