"Empowers Manager-Employee Engagement, With Room for Innovation"

5/5

What do you like best about 15Five?

I use 15Five for employees to track their weeklies with their managers, define their goals, and monitor progress. I appreciate that it gives visibility on progress across the whole organization and allows us to challenge managers so that they prioritize the growth of employees, share feedback, and develop rigor and structure in their regular meetings. What I like the most is the questions 15Five raises, which enables managers to become more relevant and focused in their management, unlocking real business value through this. The feature I value the most is the weekly check-in, which I use extensively as it acts as a key tracker of performance and what’s happening between managers and their direct report, enabling growth in feedback within the organization. The initial setup was very smooth, with great online onboarding and templates available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 15Five?

The weekly check-ins can become repetitive and team members can sometimes lose engagement. It would be great to challenge the structure over time through recommendations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi there, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback with us! It’s great to hear how you’re using 15Five to bring more visibility, structure, and meaningful conversations into your managers’ day-to-day and that the initial setup/onboarding was easy to move through.

We also hear you on the check-ins feeling repetitive over time; keeping engagement fresh is incredibly important. Did you know that you can customize the questions that show up in a weekly check-in? This allows weekly check-ins to stay fresh and can help boost engagement. I've linked an article on managing check-in questions below, however, if you need additional support you can email us at support@15five.com.

"15Five Makes Performance Conversations Feel Human"

4.5/5

What do you like best about 15Five?

15Five actually makes performance conversations feel human, not forced. The weekly check-ins are simple but powerful — they keep everyone aligned without feeling like micromanagement. I also love the recognition features and how easy it is to give feedback in real time. It genuinely helps build a culture where people feel seen and heard, which is rare in many tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 15Five?

One downside of 15Five is that some features can feel a bit overwhelming at first, especially for new users who are not familiar with performance management tools. It takes a bit of time to fully understand how to best use all functionalities. Additionally, customization options for reports and workflows could be more flexible to better fit different team needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is 15Five solving and how is that benefiting you?

15Five addresses key challenges around performance visibility, employee engagement, and alignment with company goals. It replaces fragmented feedback and manual tracking with a centralized, continuous performance management system. This has made it easier to monitor progress, support team members more effectively, and create a culture of ongoing feedback and improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi Geanina, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback!

We're so glad to hear that 15Five is helping make performance conversations feel more natural and meaningful, and that features like check-ins and recognition are supporting a culture where people feel valued.

We know getting started can feel like a lot at first, and we’re continuing to improve onboarding and flexibility so teams can more easily tailor the platform to their needs. We'll be sure to share this with our product team.

"Weekly Check-Ins and 1-on-1 Agendas That Keep Meetings Focused"

4.5/5

What do you like best about 15Five?

The weekly check-ins and the 1-on-1 agenda tools have been really helpful. Both managers and employees know what to cover before meetings, which keeps conversations focused and more productive. I also appreciate the quick feedback and recognition features, since they make it easy to share input in the moment. Overall, the interface is simple and straightforward, and our team was able to adopt it without much effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 15Five?

Some reports take a bit of time to learn at first. The analytics are useful, but new users may need a little time to understand where everything is and how to navigate it. I also think a few of the survey customization options could be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is 15Five solving and how is that benefiting you?

Before we started using this tool, it was difficult to track engagement and gather regular feedback across teams. Now we have consistent check-ins and clearer visibility into employee sentiment. Managers have a better understanding of team concerns, which makes it easier to address issues earlier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for Remote Check-Ins, but Room to Grow Overall"

2.5/5

What do you like best about 15Five?

15Five offers strategic HR management insights that are beneficial for remote working settings. As a project manager I frequently work with staff throughout the world. 15Five has offered me the flexibility to check in with workers remotely and conduct 1 on 1 sessions with workers very effectively Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 15Five?

When I first start using 15Five, it was a challenge understanding the platform and it's 50+ features. After spending more time, it became much easier although I have not fully mastered the platform uses as yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Overall easy to use and functions well. "

3.5/5

What do you like best about 15Five?

What do you dislike about 15Five?

There are a fews areas that I would really like to see improved. Particularly, I would like to see more integration of 1:1s, Career Hub, etc directly into the performance reviews so that there was supporting data throughout the whole year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Clean UI, Smooth Onboarding Performance & Engagement with 15Five, Data-Driven Performance Tracking"

5/5

What do you like best about 15Five?

15Five offers a clean UI/UX, solid integrations, and smooth onboarding with reliable support, making it easy for teams to adopt and use.

Strong on performance and ROI with continuous tracking (OKRs, check-ins) plus data-driven insights to improve engagement and decision-making. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 15Five?

15Five can feel slightly complex for new users due to multiple features, and integrations may require extra setup for advanced use cases.

Pricing can be on the higher side for smaller teams, and some insights/reporting lack deeper customization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is 15Five solving and how is that benefiting you?

15Five solves the problem of disconnected performance management (infrequent reviews, lack of feedback) by enabling continuous check-ins, goal tracking (OKRs), and real-time feedback—helping improve alignment and productivity.

It also addresses low employee engagement and retention by providing surveys, insights, and data-driven actions—benefiting me through better team visibility, improved decision-making, and a more motivated workforce. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Great Way to Check In and Celebrate Wins with High Fives"

4/5

What do you like best about 15Five?

I liked it when I was employee for sharing challenges at work with my leader. Now as a team leader, it's a great way for me to check in on how my employees are doing. High Fives are fun too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 15Five?

Some weeks, I really don't want to fill it out. My org has lots of required questions, so 15Five can feel like more work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi Nate, thanks for taking the time to review 15Five! It’s great to hear that our platform has been valuable on both the manager and IC side, from surfacing challenges to staying connected with your team.

We appreciate your perspective on weeks when it can feel like more effort. We never want 15Five to feel like another item to check off a to-do list, so this context is helpful feedback as we continue to evolve the platform.

"15five experience"

3/5

What do you like best about 15Five?

What I like about 15Five is that it turns simple check-ins into meaningful conversations. It helps managers understand how their team members are doing, track their progress, and provide feedback that strengthens connection and support within the team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 15Five?

From what I’ve seen in user discussions, one area where 15Five could improve is making the experience a bit more flexible and streamlined. Some users mention that weekly check-ins can start to feel repetitive over time, so adding smarter reminders, AI summaries, or allowing more flexible check-in formats could make it feel less routine. Improving the interface and navigation would also help users move more easily between goals, feedback, and check-ins. Additionally, offering deeper analytics, more customization for surveys and feedback, and stronger integrations with tools like Slack or Microsoft Teams could make the platform even more efficient and valuable for teams.

We also appreciate you sharing ideas for how the experience could continue to improve. Feedback around flexibility, navigation, and deeper insights is incredibly helpful, and we’ll be sure to pass it along to our product team as we keep evolving the platform.

"Easy to Use, Always Improving, and Responsive Support"

4.5/5

What do you like best about 15Five?

Easy to use and easy to navigate. They’re always improving the system and making it better. Customer and technical support are consistently responsive, and issues are usually resolved within a few days. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 15Five?

Very few things overall. I just wish their Performance Review module were more robust and customizable so it could better meet our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is 15Five solving and how is that benefiting you?

We can understand how each employee is feeling through a weekly pulse check-in. Leadership and people managers can then act quickly based on the feedback from those weekly check-ins. The 1 on 1 feature is used across the organization to set up structured meetings and support continuous performance reviews. High Five is also used as part of employee recognition, and it’s a great way to celebrate team members’ success. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The engagement surveys are straightforward to launch, and the results are easy to interpret. I also appreciate that the platform provides insights that help us spot trends across teams.
