7Geese

7Geese is performance management software built around OKRs, in which staff set goals, give recognition and exchange regular feedback in a social setting. It is now part of Paycor and sold as Paycor Talent Development, so existing customers keep the performance tools and can move to a wider HR suite.

What 7Geese does

• Goal setting with OKRs: shared objectives with visible progress across a company.
• Continuous feedback: ongoing comments between employees and managers instead of occasional reviews.
• Recognition: a social feed for acknowledging colleagues' achievements.
• Talent development: career planning, coaching support and manager development activities within the Paycor suite.

Customers and markets

It suits organisations that are moving away from strict command-and-control management towards working alongside their people. Paycor itself serves small and medium-sized businesses with HR and payroll software.
