Before you ask.
Yes, or start from validated question banks for engagement, onboarding, DEI, manager effectiveness and change readiness.
A short quarterly engagement pulse plus one annual deep-dive works for most organizations. Monthly sends tend to lower response rates without adding signal.
Belonging, workload, growth, manager support and recognition are tracked separately, so a falling score points at a cause rather than a mood.
They're clustered into themes with representative verbatims kept intact, so you see both the pattern and the actual sentence someone wrote.
Yes, once the team clears the minimum response threshold, with comparisons to the org average and their previous cycle.
Email, SMS, WhatsApp or a QR code with no login required, all mobile-first.
Responses are confidential and reported in aggregate. Results are only released once a group hits the minimum response threshold you set (five by default), so no individual can be identified from a breakdown.
Yes. Employee, manager and department data syncs from Workday, BambooHR, SAP SuccessFactors, HiBob or a CSV feed, so hierarchy and access stay current without manual upkeep.
Data stays inside your account and is never used to train models outside it. Xobin is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified, with GDPR-aligned data processing and configurable retention.
