Grapevine Launches First Template-driven Solution for Online 360 Employee Evaluations

Download this press release as an Adobe PDF document.

In response to the success of Grapevine’s Employee Evaluator, a web-based software used to create, launch and analyze employee evaluations released in 2003, Grapevine has released Employee Evaluator Lite Edition. Targeting 360 first-timers and those needing a quick, professional evaluation for a specific individual(s) within a small team or department, this simplified, template-driven solution is even easier to use and allows evaluations to be done in just a matter of minutes.

Markham, ON (PRWeb) February 6, 2007 -- The key value of Grapevine’s new Employee Evaluator Lite lies in the preset evaluation templates that are offered to users. Developed by HR professionals and based on proven core competencies to meet different type of evaluation demands, users no longer have to spend time researching and writing their own evaluation questions; often the hardest part of conducting an evaluation or review. Grapevine has partnered with HR professionals to generate a variety of online evaluation templates that cover most types of employee evaluations at every level, including: Management/Executive Level, Business Leaders, Co-worker Feedback Evaluations, Employee Appraisals, Reviews and more. The company is planning to add new templates on a regular basis to keep up with the latest HR and workplace demands.

The most challenging part of conducting employee evaluations is determining the right set of questions and criteria that most effectively measure the performance related to a specific job or position
“The most challenging part of conducting employee evaluations is determining the right set of questions and criteria that most effectively measure the performance related to a specific job or position”, says Wes Houston, Sales Director of Grapevine Surveys. “A large amount of work is involved and most people just don’t have the time or the expertise. They also don’t want to spend a lot of money, especially when they only need to evaluate a couple of employees at a time. Grapevine has addressed these issues with a 2-step Wizard system that literally allows users to be distributing their 360 evaluations in a matter of minutes. After selecting an evaluation template, users simply enter the participant and evaluators into the system and launch their evaluation. The entire process from start-to-finish is done online.”

While many of the more advanced features of the regular Employee Evaluator product are not offered in this simplified version, the most important options are still in the control of the administrator, including being able to customize the content, branding, template look and feel, distribution of the launch and reminder emails and the ability to add, edit and view evaluators and participants at any time before the evaluation is launched. Most importantly, fully detailed reports are automatically compiled and accessible in real-time.

Priced at just $79 per employee evaluation, this is the perfect solution for evaluating individuals within a team or department and other one-off evaluation situations like probationary, quarterly or yearly employee reviews. Grapevine continues to offer self-managed and fully-managed solutions for larger scale evaluations involving entire departments and organizations with the regular version of Employee Evaluator, as well as Grapevine 3.0, for a wide range of online surveys.
