Still have questions about PurelyHR?

Common questions about our time tracking, leave management, and HR software.

Employee performance management software helps businesses organize performance reviews, collect feedback, set employee goals, and track progress in one centralized system. PurelyHR’s Performance module replaces spreadsheets, paper forms, and scattered emails with structured review cycles, customizable templates, 360-degree feedback, goal tracking, and automated reminders.

PurelyHR gives HR teams and managers a structured way to create, schedule, and complete employee performance reviews. Organizations can customize their review questions, schedule review cycles, send reminders, gather feedback, and keep performance information together, making the process easier to manage throughout the year.

Yes. PurelyHR supports 360-degree feedback that can include input from employees, managers, and peers. Organizations can use different questions for each reviewer group, helping them gather broader perspectives rather than relying only on a manager’s evaluation.

Yes. Employees can participate in self-evaluations as part of the performance review process. Self-assessments allow employees to reflect on their achievements, challenges, progress, and development needs before discussing their performance with their manager.

Yes. Managers can assign goals to employees, and employees can also enter their own goals. Goals can be monitored between review cycles, helping teams maintain visibility into progress and keep performance conversations focused on measurable outcomes.
