Add User Reviews to share challenges and wins with your team and resolve blockers by taking action early. User Reviews function as a weekly update/standup or status report to keep your team informed.

Encouraging a habit of reflecting on progress and achievements is a proven way to achieve more goals, while also cultivating transparency and nurturing collaboration.


Enabling User Reviews

ℹ️ This requires Superadmin rights.

To enable (or disable) User Reviews go to Configure > Progress reporting > Users.

IMPORTANT: Pulse is part of User Reviews, so this is where you will enable Pulse.


Customizing User Reviews

ℹ️ This requires Superadmin rights.

By default, User Reviews will ask the following:

  • What did you work on?

  • What will you focus on next?

  • Any blockers or observations?

Superadmins can customize the User Reviews template to suit your organization. Update your User Review questions to help facilitate your weekly standup, integrate plans, progress, and problems, or any other weekly ritual you already use internally.

Since User Reviews are part of your Progress Reports, you'll also need to define:

  1. Frequency: How often you want User Review (and goal updates) to be submitted. Set the frequency and the day of the week. Eg. Weekly and Friday.

  2. Update reminders: When and who (everyone or just goal leads) should be reminded to submit User Reviews (and goal updates) via email and in-app. This will control when the blue Submit Review button appears on users' Home. The button will appear from the date specified until the day before the report is generated.

    1. Send reminders through our Slack or Microsoft Teams integrations.

  3. Progress Report Emails: When Managers will receive an overview of their direct reports’ Progress Reports via email.


Submit User Review from your Home

You'll see a blue button 'Submit Review' on your Home:

This will open a modal with a side panel that contains your Goals and Progress reports so you have access to this information while filling out your form.


The Review button will only be visible on Home during the update window (from when the reminder email is sent until the day before the Progress report is generated). If you've missed the deadline, you can retroactively submit your Review by going to your Progress reports tab on your Profile page, selecting the week or cycle and clicking Add Review.

Progress report email

Managers receive a Progress report email for their direct reports.

Slack channel

Send your User Review to your team's Slack channel through Personal settings > Notifications > Slack. We'll automatically detect your primary Slack channel, but you can manually choose the right channel.

Sharing your User Review to a Slack channel of your choice acts as a standup. You and your team can benefit greatly from knowing what everyone else is working on:
