Effy

Effy is free performance management software that uses AI to improve team productivity and engagement. It's designed for teams of any size and includes a variety of features to help make performance reviews as painless as possible.

Effy includes prebuilt templates so you don't have to start from scratch when creating your review forms. The software also lets you nominate reviewers flexibly so you can get feedback from people like yourself, peers, managers and subordinates. It can also automatically gather reviews and responses, setting deadlines and providing statistical data visualization.

Among Effy's features are:

• AI-generated review reports: Saves hours of analysis and summarization.
• Slack integration: Allows for review submissions and notifications through the communication platform you're already familiar with.
• Customizable templates: Handles different review situations.
• Automated reminders: Helps you get responses on time.
• Advanced anonymization: Limits access to sensitive review information to authorized personnel.

Effy can be used for a variety of situations, including:

• New Employee Probation Period: Evaluates whether new hires are a good cultural fit for the organization and whether they embody the organization's values.
• Promotion or Role Change: Recognizes employee achievements and hard work.
• Formal Performance Review: Typically takes place after a probationary period, usually 3 to 6 months.
• Major Project Milestones: Evaluates project progress and how it differs from the original plan.

Pricing is tiered, with two main options:

• One-time review: $240 for 10 employee reviews, with unlimited participants and submissions.
• Continuous review: $35/month per user, with unlimited reviews and dedicated support.

Effy also offers a 7-day free trial with all features enabled and no credit card required. This lets teams try the software before committing to a plan. Nonprofits and educational institutions can get a discount.

For teams that want a performance management system that's easy to use and won't break the bank, Effy offers an integrated platform to streamline reviews and gather useful information.
