Performance Management Software
Better Feedback,
Better Performance
Performance reviews are aimed at supporting employees in their continuous development. For best results, reviews should be conducted and documented regularly, and documentation is stored centrally together with other employee information – in Personio.
Clear Goals for
Visible Progress
Recording performance in a standardized way on a regular basis makes development visible and supports employees in improving their performance. Achieve this by defining individual goals and targets or reusing predefined ones.
A Sound Basis for Salary
and Promotion Decisions
Reliable documentation is the foundation for better, more transparent decision-making processes. Department and team leads can enter their targets and results independently, and if targets are linked to bonus payments, results are automatically transmitted to payroll.
Less Fluctuation,
Better Performance
Studies have shown that employees who are developed and supported in line with their abilities stay with their companies longer. This support is enhanced by managers defining qualitative and/or quantitative goals and targets collaboratively with their employees and documenting them in Personio.
Efficient Performance Management with Personio
A performance management system is an indispensable tool for companies of any size. Detailed employee assessments ensure that you are able to deploy available resources with optimal efficiency. Assessing employee performance is particularly important for defining targeted development initiatives and supporting employees in their continuing professional training.
This type of performance management system does not have to be time-consuming. By using HR and performance management software such as Personio, you can develop your own performance management indicators and define target agreements jointly with your employees as part of performance reviews. Use digital notes for keeping a record of specific events in between reviews. In this way, you ensure that they are not forgotten and all of the information you need will be at your fingertips for the next review. If your target agreements are tied to bonus payments, simply enter employees’ results into Personio. The software then automatically calculates employees’ entitlements, if they meet the agreed targets, and transfers relevant data to payroll accounting.
Consistency Pays Off
Once you have standardized the processes and criteria for assessing employees’ performance and conduct, every subsequent evaluation will take less time. Yet the benefits of a performance management software will increase cumulatively, as the more comparative data you have, the better you are able to assess your employees’ performance.

How to Define KPIs in Personio
Personio provides for three types of indicators to be defined for performance management:
Binary indicators with two defined options, for example ‘CPD event attended’ – yes or no Quantitative indicators, i.e. directly measurable indicators such as sales targets
Qualitative indicators, i.e. not directly measurable indicators such as employee satisfaction
You are free to define whether and to what extent each KPI affects the bonus calculation for the selected period. You can enter bonuses manually in the Performance section of the employee profile, or have them calculated automatically, based on the extent to which the targets defined and stored in the Performance section have been reached. Personio automatically adds the relevant bonus to the salary. You define when this is to be done, for example at the end of a period or at even intervals across it, on an individual basis.
