Anonymous Reviews Now Available: Enable Honest, Constructive Feedback
You can now activate anonymous responses in performance review cycles—helping teams exchange more open, candid feedback across peer, upward, and external evaluations. This new capability reinforces trust, reduces bias, and creates the conditions for better development conversations.
Why This Matters
For any organization committed to a feedback culture, the way feedback is collected matters.
In sensitive contexts—like peer-to-peer, upward, or external feedback—anonymity can make it easier for people to be honest. Whether you’re just implementing your first performance review cycle or looking to improve an existing one, this option creates psychological safety and improves the quality of what people share.
What’s New
- Activate anonymous reviews in Peer, Upward, External and Other community reviewer feedback.
- Set it independently for each feedback direction during cycle configuration.
- Built into the platform—no additional setup or integrations required.
- Available in any new review cycle.
