Halogen Software Announces New, Feature-Loaded eAppraisal 6.2
New version of award-winning performance management software offers more than 20 product enhancements
OTTAWA - Halogen Software Inc., a leading provider of Web-based employee performance management (EPM) software, today launched a powerful new version of its flagship Halogen eAppraisal and eAppraisal Healthcare software.
"We've listened to customers' ideas about how to make Halogen eAppraisal, already one of North America's most popular EPM products, even better. Version 6.2 includes more than 20 new product features that give our customers flexible, easy-to-use options for automating employee appraisals according to their needs," said Paul Loucks, President of Halogen Software.
Orange, one of the world's largest mobile communications companies and a long-standing Halogen customer, is already using eAppraisal 6.2's improved goal management tools, which help establish and track corporate objectives and milestones.
"Objectives are an essential management tool. But for us, milestones are the key to managing the path to achieving objectives. The flexible facility within eAppraisal 6.2 allows us to measure up to ten milestone sections directly related to each objective," said Iain McIvor, Quality Improvement Operations Manager at Orange. "And, as always, all the feedback we collect is viewable through simple management reports."
Other new features of eAppraisal 6.2 include: new options for customizing and viewing appraisal forms; virtually unlimited options for scoring and weighting employee skills and competencies; a faster, more convenient way for managers to include Optional Competencies on select appraisal forms; and many more.
Halogen eAppraisal 6.2 is available on April 11, 2005 and will be featured at HRO World Trade Show in New York at the Halogen Software booth. Details on the new features of Halogen eAppraisal 6.2 can be found at www.halogensoftware.com.
