What is 15Five
15Five is a performance management platform that supports continuous feedback, manager-employee 1:1s, engagement measurement, and structured performance reviews. It is used by HR teams and people managers to run recurring check-ins, track goals, and capture employee sentiment. The product combines review cycles, surveys, and coaching-oriented workflows in one system, with integrations to common HRIS and collaboration tools.
Strong manager 1:1 workflows
15Five provides structured agendas, talking points, and follow-up tracking for recurring 1:1 meetings. This helps managers maintain a consistent cadence for feedback and coaching. The workflow is designed for ongoing conversations rather than only annual review events.
Integrated engagement measurement
The platform includes engagement surveys and pulse checks that can be run on a recurring schedule. Results can be segmented and trended over time to support action planning. Keeping engagement data alongside check-ins and reviews reduces the need to stitch together separate tools.
End-to-end review cycles
15Five supports configurable performance reviews, including self reviews and manager reviews, with supporting inputs captured through the year. HR teams can standardize review timing, forms, and calibration steps. This makes it suitable for organizations that want a single system for continuous feedback plus formal reviews.
OKR depth varies by need
While 15Five supports goals and OKR-style tracking, organizations with complex OKR governance may find they need additional structure. Examples include advanced portfolio rollups, dependency mapping, or highly customized scoring models. Teams should validate whether the goal framework matches their internal OKR methodology.
Not a work execution tool
15Five focuses on people processes (feedback, reviews, engagement) rather than task and project execution. It does not replace tools built for detailed project planning, workload management, or cross-team delivery tracking. Companies often keep a separate system for day-to-day work management.
Change management required
The value of the platform depends on consistent manager participation in check-ins, 1:1s, and feedback habits. Organizations with uneven management practices may see inconsistent data quality and adoption. HR teams typically need to invest in enablement, templates, and governance to sustain usage.
