CompanyMood

Overview

CompanyMood aims to help organizations spot workplace strengths and problems early through regular employee feedback. Alongside mood tracking, it offers surveys, reporting and tools for discussing or recording changes, giving teams ways to act on feedback rather than stopping at measurement.

The product targets companies with 100–25,000 employees, particularly in DACH and Europe. That ambition contrasts with Teams, the free plan, which supports up to 30 people: useful for a small group evaluating the approach, but not a free path to broad use in most of the intended customer range.

Key features

Employees can provide recurring mood feedback, and surveys can be organized by company, department or role. Real-time online analysis, automated PDF reports and CSV/XLS exports give teams both quick summaries and data they can analyze alongside HR information. Pulse and engagement surveys, anonymous responses and action planning are supported.

Actions, statements, event pins, feedback chat and a suggestion box provide several ways to communicate and document improvement work. This breadth is a practical strength for teams that want to follow up on findings, though it also means CompanyMood is more than a lightweight polling tool.

Integrations include Slack, Microsoft Teams, Personio, Azure Active Directory and Microsoft 365. The EVA Slack bot can proactively remind employees to submit mood ratings. An API can bring mood tracking into company software such as an intranet or employee platform; API access and HRIS Sync are Enterprise features.

Android and iOS apps support push reminders, 14 languages and participation by employees without PC workstations. CompanyMood says its infrastructure is operated in the EU under GDPR requirements and that it performs regular penetration tests. Team-level results require at least five people per department, and employees cannot see which colleagues have signed up. The minimum helps protect anonymity, but can prevent reporting for smaller departments.

Pricing

CompanyMood uses a freemium model. Teams is free and covers up to 30 people, with the Moodbarometer, Suggestion-Box, mobile apps, PDF reports and dashboard. It gives a small group a way to begin collecting feedback, but lacks the paid plans’ broader survey and reporting capabilities.

Business costs 3€ per person/month, with a minimum price of €99 per month. It adds Topics, the Survey System, Statements & Event-Pins, Roles and reporting by unit. The per-person price is attractive to compare against team size, but the minimum means smaller organizations may pay more than a simple seat calculation suggests.

Enterprise costs 5€ per person/month and adds individual GDPR contracts, premium support, advanced filters, security options, API access and HRIS Sync. It is the relevant tier for organizations that need those integrations or contractual and support provisions; otherwise Business includes the core survey and unit-reporting tools at a lower rate. A free trial is offered.

Platforms

CompanyMood is available on web, Android and iOS, and offers an API. Mobile apps and reminders extend participation to employees who do not work at a computer; the API is aimed at organizations integrating mood tracking into their own software.

Who it's for

CompanyMood suits HR teams and organizations that want recurring mood feedback, multiple survey levels and practical ways to record follow-up. Its language support, mobile participation and European focus make it a credible fit for distributed or deskless teams in its target region. Small organizations can try the free plan, but should account for the 30-person cap and the five-person reporting threshold. Teams needing company-wide deployment should budget for a paid plan, especially where the Business minimum applies.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Mood checks, pulse and engagement surveys, and follow-up tools sit in one product, supporting a feedback-to-action workflow.
• Pros: Company, department and role-level surveys, real-time analysis, PDF reports and CSV/XLS exports serve both quick review and further HR analysis.
• Pros: Mobile apps, 14 languages and the Slack reminder bot can help include employees beyond regular desktop users.
• Cons: The free plan stops at 30 people, far below the stated 100–25,000 employee target range.
• Cons: Business has a €99 monthly minimum, which can make the entry paid tier costly for smaller teams.
• Cons: Departments with fewer than five people cannot receive team-level results, limiting reporting granularity in small units.

Verdict

Choose CompanyMood if your organization wants recurring employee mood measurement tied to surveys, reporting and documented follow-up, particularly across European or deskless teams. Its connected toolkit is the strongest reason to choose it. Look elsewhere if your team needs a free plan above 30 people, small-department reporting, or a paid entry point without a €99 monthly minimum.
