Glint's pulse surveys are a powerful tool for gathering feedback from employees. These surveys are designed to be short and easy to complete, allowing organizations to gather feedback on a regular basis. The responses from these surveys can provide valuable insights into how employees are feeling about their work, the company, and their colleagues.
Viva Insights' collaboration data provides a different perspective on employee engagement. This tool measures how employees are working and collaborating, providing insights into their behavior and productivity. By analyzing this data, organizations can identify trends and patterns in employee behavior, and use this information to improve engagement.
