Patented Visual Profiler

Save time, deliver better data.

Our patented drag-and-drop Visual Profiler is a comparative tool that makes multiple functions within our software easier to perform and more intuitive:

• Rating employee performance
• Rating employee potential
• Assessing skills gaps
• Calibrating performance
• Administering employee satisfaction or any other type of surveys

With so many applications, our drag and drop interface provides consistency across performance management modules – and that’s critical to ensuring a smooth user experience.

Comparative context delivers better data

With our drag and drop interface, users can rate multiple people at one time. This is not only efficient; it also captures levels of employee performance often missed by other assessments. And statistical studies show that accuracy improves when performance levels are rated in a comparative context. "Bill rates 3 on meeting deadlines" begs the question, "compared to what?" "Bill meets deadlines better than Jane" is both an easier judgment to make and provides more information.

On the other hand, rating an individual against multiple competencies enables the rater to compare relative strengths. For example, Joe’s leadership and communication skills may both be above average, and his decision-making not far behind. By providing a comparative context, the drag and drop scale allows the user to see a clear picture of all ratings, rather than requiring the rater to go back through ticked boxes to make sure ratings are correct in relation to each other.

Many of our customers use both approaches, depending on the type of appraisal or the employee groups being rated.

"Number-free" to the rater's eyes.

Visual Profiler appears to be a number-free rating system, but in fact, it transparently produces extremely accurate, high-definition data quality. You’ll get a wider distribution of scores, not a report that rates almost everyone as "above average" or "satisfactory." TotalPerformance’s finer level of analysis lets you recognize your star performers, plus identify – and address – poor performance.
