Industry: Construction
Company Size: Mid-Market (500-1000)
Products Used: Performance Management, Real-Time Feedback, Employee Recognition, Reporting & Analytics
Rudolph and Sletten, a leading construction firm, was using outdated paper evaluations for performance reviews, involving manual form filling, scanning, and emailing. These inefficient processes hindered performance management and created a disconnect between employee feedback and organizational goals. Their previous attempts to digitalize the process through PDFs failed to modernize the system effectively.
Rudolph and Sletten needed a solution that would not only modernize their performance review process but also foster employee engagement. After evaluating several platforms, they chose Engagedly for its user-friendly interface, mobile compatibility, and advanced social learning and collaboration features. These elements were particularly appealing as engagement was an integral part of the company’s culture.
“We were looking for a company that could walk the walk, and Engagedly delivered.”

With Engagedly, the company’s performance management processes were quickly streamlined. Employees and managers embraced the platform without the need for formal training, thanks to its intuitive design. The mobile app, featuring employee photo calibration and easy access to information, further enhanced the user experience.
“The entire process was made easy thanks to Engagedly’s extremely helpful customer support team.”
Despite concerns about the time and costs associated with implementing a new system, the focus remained on long-term benefits. As Shareen stated, the key was not minimizing time spent on reviews but making the necessary time more productive and impactful.
Engagedly’s performance management platform transformed the company’s approach to employee evaluations. Previously, only 33% of performance reviews were completed. After implementing Engagedly, the completion rate surged to 100%, with every employee actively participating in the process.
“The biggest success was the completion rate—rising from 33% to 100%. Every single individual is now actively involved with this new system.”

The simplicity of Engagedly’s platform meant that even a few short training clips made by Engagedly’s team were enough to guide employees through the new system, further contributing to its successful adoption.
Beyond solving their immediate challenges, Rudolph and Sletten view Engagedly as a long-term partner. The company looks forward to leveraging new features such as the talent card and core competencies, which will help develop employees’ skill sets and align more closely with the company’s growth goals.
“With these upcoming features, Engagedly will align even more with our goals of developing employees’ skills and presentations.”
Rudolph and Sletten’s positive experience with Engagedly has already led them to recommend the platform to other businesses, sharing their satisfaction and success with the tool.
“It’s important for people to hear from a real user. Engagedly is receptive and easy to implement. I would absolutely recommend it to others.”
