Ally.io gives me one place to track my goals, both from a career-development and functional perspective. It is as flexible as I need it to be. I also LOVE that I can Bulk Check-in my status. I try to do this weekly, calling out my manager or directors as needed to get attention to things slipping. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the hierarchy can be a bit confusing, but honestly, I think that comes down to how my company has implemented the solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The organization and the power to edit any new situation that deserves timely attention Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

That there aren't enough tutorials in Spanish. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The dashboard function is a great way to present how each team is doing in terms of fulfilling targets that help complete bigger goals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My company uses Microsoft, and we currently cannot connect Microsoft excel to do automatic check-ins, so that is a little tedious. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The simple and intuitive interface for creating objectives and key results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Notes made on the KRs don't reflect on the top-level objectives. It would make it easier if the KR notes can also be seen when you are on the Objective level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We selected Ally from among 8 OKR platform contenders. Most of them had the usual must-have features (customized quarters, dashboard view of OKR alignment, management reporting, etc.). However, we prioritized ease of use to help drive adoption, and Ally's integration with many other platforms, including Teams, Slack, and Wrike, along with an intuitive and well-designed mobile app, fit the bill for us. In addition, several other OKR vendors built their platform based on their OKR "philosophy", and therefore did not include certain features (i.e., tracking projects/initiatives, individual OKRs, etc.). Because we were new to OKRs and still hadn't developed our "philosophy", we wanted a platform with the flexibility to accommodate any needs we would come up with now or in the future. Ally excels at this flexibility. Case in point is their newly released Performance Management module, which I'm excited to learn more about. A lot of the other vendors believe that individual performance management should not be integrated with OKRs, and therefore would never develop this capability. Ally gives you all the options, and you can choose which ones you want to implement in your organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's nothing really that I dislike about Ally. I do have my personal preferences regarding certain terms (for example, they use "KPI" to describe metric key results, when in my experience KPIs are more associated with operational business metrics), but again these are preferences. You have the ability to create custom tags if you need to further refine or filter information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike the user interface. It can be messy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

simplicity.

Started Ally.io to prep for upcoming team QBR and board review. Having the platform's onboarding process walk me through the OKR setting process was easy and I have clear visibility into our team's OKRs and feel more confident going into these meetings than ever before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While it was easy to set up OKRs individually, I'd love a way to create OKRs and workshop with my team directly within Ally.io but when sharing this feedback with the Ally.io team they said this feature is coming soon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
