“I love the Energage survey process, and our employees really appreciate that we ask for their input. It’s super simple to pull valuable information, create data visualization presentations for leadership, and determine what you want your message to be. That helps us dissect the survey insights as a team, categorize focus areas, and implement changes.”

The Energage Platform makes it easy to see workplace culture trends
The Energage Platform helps us to see and understand more than numbers. We’re looking for ways to improve the organization, and this is one of the only HR tools where you can see your progress. We have the data points to say, ‘Hey, this is what the survey looks like year over year.’
We can track trends and see how scores change. We love it for that reason, and how it’s divided out into different points of interest. You can easily look at your culture drivers, your basics, and then, of course, youn can track custom questions. It’s so nice to have a tool our employees are familiar with because they see it often, and that has helped to create trust in the tool.
United Way uses Insights to find focus areas and build action plans
We use Energage Insights a lot. It’s really valuable; there is so much data and different ways to look at it, and we dive into it all. It’s easy to create PowerPoint presentations for every department so they can see their own data. Insights helps our executive team compare departments and industry benchmarks. It’s an excellent tool for determining where you need to focus, and where to start.
Insights highlighted the path to improve and strengthen company values
This year, employees ranked the Workplace Survey “We operate by strong values” lower than usual. Using Insights helped us to see an opportunity for improvement and create a survey question about our internal values, which we hadn’t discussed before. Now, we’re developing our list of values to use internally and for branding, which could be a big game-changer for our culture.
“Energage Insights helps our executive team compare departments and industry benchmarks. It’s a great tool for figuring out where you need to focus, and where to start.”
