Align HCM is a team of human capital management experts dedicated to making their customers’ lives easier. They help large organizations simplify complex HCM processes through a blend of software, strategy, service, and support, removing the stress that often comes with managing people operations.

When their performance review process was still entirely manual, it didn’t match the efficiency they deliver for their clients. They needed a solution that would streamline the cycle, improve the experience for managers and employees, and integrate with the tools their team already used every day. That search led them to Teamflect.

Saved Hours by Moving from Manual to Digital Reviews

Barbara Tonelli - Director of Enablement

"We were looking for a tool that would help manage our performance cycle which had been completely manual to date. We came across Teamflect and loved the fact that it was fully integrated into Teams."

Before Teamflect, Align HCM’s performance review process was entirely manual, a method that, while functional, was cumbersome, time-intensive, and frustrating for both managers and employees. Transitioning to Teamflect transformed this cycle into a smooth, intuitive workflow, eliminating the logistical headaches of managing reviews through spreadsheets and disconnected documents.

Barbara and her team completed their first full performance cycle in Teamflect and saw an immediate difference: managers had a clear structure, employees could complete self-reviews with ease, and 360-degree feedback was seamlessly gathered in one centralized platform.

Made Reviews a Positive Experience for Everyone

"We went through a full performance cycle with Teamflect, which was phenomenal."

That first complete cycle was a better experience for everyone involved. For a remote company like Align HCM, fostering connection and collaboration during reviews is crucial.

"Great experience for both our managers and our employees. We loved having everything centralized."

Teamflect’s centralized hub helped create a shared space where achievements could be recognized, accountability was clear, and conversations between managers and employees became more productive.

An Intuitive Implementation Process with Continuous Support

"It's really easy and intuitive to implement on your own."

Barbara was able to set up and implement Teamflect without outside help, customizing it to match their workflows from day one. The platform’s intuitive design meant there was no need for drawn-out onboarding or technical setup.

Even so, the Teamflect team offered to provide end-user training. While Barbara didn’t need to take them up on it, having that option available underscored for her, Teamflect's focus on customer success.

"Teamflect also offered to train my end users for me. I was able to do that on my own but the fact that they were willing to jump on a call and train was very much appreciated."

Align HCM’s experience with Teamflect has streamlined performance reviews, removed the bottlenecks of manual processes, and helped reinforce a culture of recognition within their remote team.

With the review cycle running smoothly, Barbara has already rolled out the Goals module to bring even more structure and alignment to the organization’s objectives.

We here at Teamflect are proud to be part of Align HCM's performance management and employee experience journey and we can't wait to see all the other amazing ways they will be using our platform.
