Betterworks' Embedded Analytics Solution
Summary
Betterworks, a leader in performance management, sought to help its customers more easily make data-driven decisions by integrating powerful analytics capabilities into the Betterworks platform. By partnering with Visier, Betterworks empowered their customers with a robust, customizable analytics solution that delivers insights, including program adoption, employee performance, and DEIB initiatives. These insights give HR teams valuable, actionable insights into program impact and workforce trends.
Problems to be solved
Betterworks aimed to offer deeper insights to their users by providing intuitive access to employee engagement, performance, goals, and feedback data. Their customers wanted to explore their workforce data autonomously without requiring heavy technical expertise or significant overhead.
Betterworks wanted users to be able to make smarter decisions about employee performance as a part of their everyday workflow. “We want to embed performance management in the flow of work to help managers and employees have continuous conversations. This also makes it easy to embed feedback and recognition into performance evaluations, resulting in a more comprehensive and fairer review of an employee’s accomplishments. ” - John Schneider, CMO of Betterworks.
Betterworks needed a scalable solution that could seamlessly integrate with their existing systems while offering customers the flexibility to generate their reports and dashboards and uncover insights around employee performance and engagement.
Solution
Betterworks integrated Visier’s Real Time People Data Platform, allowing them to deliver self-service analytics directly to their users. By leveraging Visier's proven data modeling and embedded analytics capabilities, Betterworks enables its customers to connect data from employee engagement, performance review, calibration, feedback, and recognition to uncover key performance insights quickly and efficiently.
Visier’s Real Time People Data Platform also provided pre-built calculations, metrics, and visualizations that Betterworks could easily embed into their user interface, enabling Betterworks to offer an open studio environment for users to customize and self-serve their own analyses.
How it works
Betterworks extracts employee survey data and sends it to the Visier Real Time People Data Platform via flat file. The data is processed through Visier’s ingestion and transformation tools, which organize and prepare it for analysis.
Visier’s data analytics are embedded in the Betterworks platform so HR teams can manage their performance process and explore the data in one place.
The Betterworks team mapped its customer data to Visier’s People Data Model, allowing the company to extend its offering by delivering pre-built calculations, metrics, and content through Visier’s Model and Query APIs.
Users can access and explore their data in real-time, either by using Betterworks’ guidebooks containing the top questions HR practitioners want to know or by customizing their own to deep-dive into topics they care most about. This allows customers to answer their most pressing workforce questions easily, from employee engagement levels to critical performance metrics.
The integration with Visier’s platform also created opportunities for new revenue streams, positioning Betterworks as a solution that scales with evolving customer demands. Some Visier analytics tools are available in a freemium version available to all customers, while additional tools can be purchased through their advanced analytics offering.
