What StaffCircle is

Its Performance Management module covers check-ins, reviews, SMART objectives, 360 appraisals, real-time feedback, competency alignment, and reports. Employee Development includes plans, skills assessments, succession planning, career pathways, training logs, and skills-gap analysis. An optional Employee Engagement add-on offers surveys, awards and recognition, a newsfeed, social intranet, people insights, and employee communications. StaffCircle says it is intended for HR, L&D, and people leaders in mid-sized and multi-site organisations, typically with 50–1,000 employees. It runs as a web app that can be added to iOS or Android home screens, but is not distributed through app stores. Listed integrations include Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Microsoft Teams, Power BI, Zapier, Power Automate, HRIS connectors, an API, and webhooks.
