Clear Review vs WeThrive
WeThrive is often compared to Clear Review, but why do customers choose us? Clear Review and WeThrive are both designed to improve performance, wellbeing and engagement, however, they both take a different approach. WeThrive believes that effectively driving engagement, wellbeing and high performance requires a holistic approach that includes everyone from the board-level executives to managers and employees.
Why should people consider switching from Clear Review to WeThrive?
According to customer reviews on G2, WeThrive is better at meeting requirements, is easier to set up, has a higher quality of support and WeThrive is a greater partner in doing business. WeThrive’s product direction is also flagged as more impressive than Clear Review. However, we are on an equal footing for ease of use!
However, where WeThrive stands out is with our intelligent surveys. Customers scored WeThrive a 9.4/10 compared to Clear Review’s 8.5/10 for pulse surveys and higher for science-based templates. WeThrive’s intelligent surveys and recommendations are based on our 4C models developed from Human Needs psychology with contributions and expertise from GPs, practical psychology and psychotherapy.
Performance reviews
WeThrive’s performance reviews are supported by fully-customisable questionnaires that ensure both employees and managers can have productive, high-quality and relevant conversations. Employees and managers collaborate to build their own Intelligenda®️, focusing on the most important areas that they want to discuss ahead of time. This ensures both parties are fully prepared for their 1:1.
Clear Review takes a different approach to performance management and focuses mostly on setting objectives, delivering feedback from internal and external sources, and driving conversations. Pre-review feedback is not gathered ahead of time, which means managers and employees are not always adequately prepared. Clear Review does provide a set of prompts for each type of conversation, such as “Actions from last check-in: Have agreed actions been completed? If not, what can be done to ensure they are completed in the next week?” These prompts can help to structure and guide the conversation, but all too often can become a tickbox exercise.
Both WeThrive and Clear Review enable managers and employees to request and schedule review meetings that integrate with their calendar. Similarly, both offer a talent snapshot where managers can offer a form of ratings for their people.
Peer-to-peer feedback is an integral part of Clear Review’s product, and while WeThrive does offer “High-Thrives” to acknowledge a job well done, our focus is primarily on enabling more successful two-way communication.
Why the Intelligenda® is crucial to your performance management strategy
WeThrive has developed a brand new approach to delivering maximum value through our performance review tool. Intelligenda® is a trademarked process to ensure employees and managers real requirements and objectives are included in any review process. This ensures you always deliver measurable value to the business and performance gains across the organisation.
Making sure 1:1s happen is just the first step – the focus of the WeThrive Intelligenda® is to put the process on auto-pilot and give managers and employees the tools they need to have meaningful, quality conversations – this is what great performance management is really about.
Using feedback from pre-review questionnaires, engagement surveys and goals, your managers and employees can include anything they want to discuss. This ensures your conversation is always focused precisely where it needs to be to deliver the most value.
WeThrive also makes life easier for everyone. You can completely automate the process of requesting and scheduling 1:1s. By comparison, calendar scheduling is not currently available to Culture Amp’s customers which means this needs to be done externally, adding another unnecessary step to the process.
Core surveys
WeThrive offers three core surveys: employee engagement, mental health and wellbeing, diversity, equality, equity and inclusion, plus customisable pulse surveys. By comparison, Clear Review offers employee engagement pulse surveys that include some wellbeing questions that are mostly built by you.
What really makes WeThrive stand out against other providers for these core surveys are our action plans. WeThrive has over 1,000 action recommendations that are delivered at the organisation, manager and employee level. By comparison, Clear Review does not offer next steps post-survey. This is the essential part of running an engagement, wellbeing or D&I strategy, and is often the reason customers choose WeThrive.
