Performance Management — Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between performance management and performance appraisal?

Performance appraisal is a periodic review event — typically annual or bi-annual. Performance management is the continuous process of setting goals, providing feedback, and developing employees throughout the year. Zimyo supports both, tying appraisal outcomes to ongoing goal tracking and feedback.

How does Zimyo handle 360-degree reviews?

Zimyo's 360° review module collects inputs from the employee's direct manager, peers, direct reports, and a self-assessment — all in one cycle. Ratings are normalized and presented to the manager as an aggregated view, with anonymous peer responses to encourage honest feedback.

Can performance scores be linked to compensation?

Yes. Zimyo connects performance ratings directly to your payroll module. After each review cycle, approved performance-based increments, bonuses, or variable pay adjustments flow automatically into the next payroll run — eliminating manual data transfer.

What performance appraisal methods does Zimyo support?

Zimyo supports bell curve appraisal, normalization ratings, 9-box grid (potential vs. performance), OKR-based evaluation, KRA/KPI scoring, and competency-based ratings. You can configure a combination of these methods for different employee grades.

How do OKRs work in Zimyo?

Company-level OKRs are created by leadership and cascade down to departments, teams, and individual employees. Each employee tracks key result progress in real time, and managers receive automated check-in prompts to review progress at configurable intervals.

How often should performance appraisals take place?

Most Zimyo customers run formal review cycles quarterly or bi-annually, with continuous check-ins and feedback loops in between. The platform is flexible — you can configure any review cadence and mix it with ongoing goal tracking and peer recognition.
