15Five has been a fantastic tool for our organization! It's more than just performance management software—it's a true communication and alignment platform that has transformed the way our team connects, gives feedback, and grows.
The weekly check-ins are a simple but powerful way to stay in touch with how everyone is doing, both personally and professionally. Managers get real-time insights into team morale and challenges, which has helped us be more proactive and supportive. The High Five feature is a favorite—recognizing teammates publicly has really boosted morale and strengthened our company culture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One area where 15Five could improve is the user interface, which can feel a bit overwhelming at first—especially for new users or those who aren't as tech-savvy. With so many features and options available, the learning curve can be steep, and navigating between performance reviews, objectives, and check-ins isn’t always as intuitive as it could be. A more streamlined or customizable dashboard would go a long way in improving the overall user experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I really like the high 5 service that you were able to give to other employees, made you feel good rewarding someone but also recieving the high 5s. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I feel like it could be too overwhelming for smaller companies where some of the features are a bit too much Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We have built a company wide OKR tied to our company wide average Pulse score. It is an easy check of how the company is "feeling" from week to week, and over the last 2 years, I have found it to be accurate, important and super easy for the team to adopt and stay consistent in use.

There isn't much. When managing multiple people and their 1:1's it can get a bit confusing which one you are in, and what are the actions that are needed to follow up with, but this is a newer feature we are using and I might just not know how to fully work it yet. I have also not dealt with a lot of the reporting (which it probably has), but seeing aggregated charts and data on the whole company would be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Set up of the product was very simple and the training modules are very helpful if you're upgrading or adding on additional features as you go.
At least one member of our team is in 15Five daily making it one of our most used tools.
The cadance with check-ins and 1-on-1s all being in one tool and not having to track everything manually has really helped to keep us organized and on track. Utilization is at an all time high and the reporting has aided in identifying areas of improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish there was a live chat feature for customer support instead of needing to send an email and then await a response. I will say though, responses are typically very quick.
While the Best Self Reviews are absolutely a game changer, our organization does reviews based on anniversary date of our employees; which doesn't work as well within 15Five. It would be really nice to be able to combine results from various review cycles to get a bigger picture of the organization overall without needing to do a lot of manual labor.

I love how customizable almost everything is. The Support team is absolutely amazing and always helpful. Our own account team as well has been wonderful to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish there was more help articles with a lot more detail. There are different ways to do the same thing in 15Five and I wish the help articles covered all solutions/alternatives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Willingness to listen and find a solution that works for our people. Exec Advisors are fantastic and worth every penny! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I most appreciate the robustness of 15five as a whole and the many options it provides organizations to better engage with their people. I can see how the different functions like High Fives, the Best Self Review, or even how the individual user profile is set up all align with a lot of the best practices we've seen for helping employees leverage their strengths and other key learnings in the HR field. 15five seems to have a solution for almost every aspect of performance management. It's a pretty straightforward platform to use in many aspects with some opportunities here and there for making things smoother. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The sheer number of features baked into 15five can make onboarding a little overwhelming at first. You can't get your workforce to embrace every single tool within 15five so it's really up to your internal implementation team to determine which features to focus on and how to stagger the announcements and changes. There are some guides to get you started, but a bit more active support or maybe more video guides would have helped with our initial onboarding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I am a professional who works on mobile applications and have had lots of personal contact with 15Five. One area where the software really excels is in making everything organized. We use it so we can keep tabs on ourselves, to communicate. Especially now with projects that are really complicated and which need outside help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
But the other side of the coin is that some things about 15Five need to improve. Also, the setting and tracking of career goals seems a bit jumbled. Objective confusion There is sometimes overlap or confusion in terms of the objectives and peer review process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ability for employees to have a weekly digital check-in on goals can be useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Poor customer service with devil-in-the-details fine print. If you so much as increase by one employee for one day, they'll shoot you an immediate bill. If you want to take a hiatus on services, they will issue absolutely no refund. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
