Build a successful organization

Get everyone in your organization aligned to your strategic plan and moving in the one direction. Know your top performers and understand development needs.

Cognology has all the essentials built right in, including quick and easy 360-Degree Feedback (add as many participants as you like), Performance Reviews (elimate all that paper), and attractive, easy-to-understand reporting (really!).

Easily make changes

You don't need expensive in-house software programmers to make changes. Likewise, you won't be slowed down by costly development teams or your IT department.

Cognology makes this just so easy to do. Even if you have departments with entirely different processes - you'll know you can tailor the software to suit their needs - quickly and so easily.

Your hardest working employee

Cognology works through the night for you - talking to your HR System - checking and updating employee records - managing workflow.

Goal alignment

Cognology makes objective setting a snap. Unlike a paper based approach that requires managers to spend hours setting goals - you can easily make the link from employee - to department - to organization goals - using the cascading method or templates. All the time improving the quality of objectives across your organization.

Performance reviews

Keep all your reviews in one place, at your fingertips. Upload documents, spreadsheets and emails. Quickly jot down notes (a mini-blog) so that performance isn't just a once a year focus.

360-degree feedback

360-Degree Feedback with Cognology means complete flexibility. Create any number of your own questionnaires (or change ours). Rating Scales and Open-ended questions are easily created or changed on a whim. Get rich reporting results with the click of a button. And Security? Safely go about providing feedback - and know that your responses are secure.

Competencies, values & behaviors

From helping you identify the knowledge and skills of your people to showing you where they need training, Cognology makes it easy for your organization to build its' talent. Running reports to find out who needs development or to understand group capabilities is so easy you’ll wonder why you haven’t always been able to do this. And with tools that allow you to match people with competencies, your succession planning will be more dynamic.

Learning resources

Build a library of courses, books, videos, online material and coaching tips. Link to web sites and other materials. In just minutes you can create links and build a rich learning library.

Individual and group analysis

Know the capabilities of your organization, divisions and individuals. Pinpoint development needs to target your learning and development dollar. Track and analyze performance.

Development planning

Map improvement strategies, tasks or activities using Learning Resources or create your own.

"We wanted to involve people from 6 countries in the 360-degree process in two languages, and Cognology's service was excellent - efficient, flexible and highly responsive to our needs", says Keith Cundale, PriceWaterhouseCoopers.

Monitor reviews

With a few clicks of the mouse you'll be on top of your performance appraisal process. Know who has finished reviews, who hasn't and quickly send reminders.

Customizable

We speak your language - say what you want using your own terminology.

Security in mind

Safely go about your work, backed by multiple levels of security that let you control which features people can access and what records they can see.
