Peoplelogic saves me time
With Peoplelogic, managing performance is faster, easier, and less stressful. It helps us gather feedback and organize review cycles without hundreds of forms and sheets. Employees started to fill out reviews faster, Peoplelogic is like a game for them.
Despite its growing momentum, Sombra remains committed to delivering high-quality services and maintaining a high-performance team.
To do that, Sombra conducts continuous feedback and performance evaluation for their employees. This allows their employees to be more productive as individuals and teams.
Sombra uses the continuous feedback framework alongside bi-annual 360 reviews. This allows HR to gather feedback from several parties, including managers, peers, subordinates, customers, and the employee themselves. The HR manager gathers the feedback and shares it with the manager and employee. Then, they discuss it at the meeting, and the employee sets personal development goals.

The Challenge
Sombra’s performance management approach was pivotal in driving its growth in the early stages. It received positive responses from its employees, with approximately 90% active participants in review cycles monthly. However, Sombra’s discovered the limitations of conventional tools when more employees joined the organization. In time, Sombra’s HR team was overwhelmed by the workload of planning, implementing, and reviewing employee feedback. Tools like emails, Google forms, and Excel struggled to
- ensure seamless participation among employees.
- deliver appraisal forms to the right recipients.
- ensure a timely response from participants.
As challenges piled up, Sombra realized that they needed to pivot from manual HR tools to automated solution. Sombra hopes resolved missed emails and repetitive follow-ups for evaluation form fill-ups.

The Implementation
Peoplelogic allows Sombra to manage performance appraisal differently. It has lifted the burden of:
- managing feedback on spreadsheets for all employees
- granting access rights
- inserting feedback from multiple sources, including emails and Google forms
Sombra has simplified its employee appraisal process to the following steps:
- The HR spends 1 hour monthly to set up a review cycle. With the pre-configured templates, HR managers only need to determine the participants.
- They use a single dashboard to monitor cycle progress, send friendly reminders, and share appraisal results with the participants.
- Then, HR managers hold performance reviews with the employees and supervisors to discuss feedback and set goals for subsequent evaluations.
- Managers ensure that all employees have a personal development plan and monitor their progress.
- Sombra upholds the culture of continuous feedback by scheduling 1:1 meetings between managers and employees. This takes place continuously before the performance review meeting.
