What Our Performance Evaluation Software Does
Set Up One Workflow that Encapsulates All Your Performance Evaluation Needs
Create a performance management process of any complexity with our intelligent process builder. Use our pre-built templates for law firms or design your own process to capture precise feedback. Forms can be built for any type of evaluation, any department or practice group, and can integrate to inform other evaluations. Forms are easy to complete and can be accessed on any device from anywhere, with automated reminders to ensure they get completed on time. Simplify large and complex processes that can take months to complete into one efficient workflow.
Save Evaluator Time and Gather More Effective Feedback
Build your evaluation forms with our drag-and-drop interface, with options to rate performance by competencies (such as practice skills, management skills, client skills, organization-building skills) and performance factors (such as analysis and research, expertise, oral communication, writing). Streamline evaluations by displaying relevant information for your evaluators. Integrate with our other modules to bring in an employee’s learning status, skill tracking, real-time feedback, self-assessment results, demographics, and key projects they billed hours on.
Make Sure All Work Completed Throughout the Year Gets Evaluated
Law firms have employees working on multiple projects for external clients or in house. This creates a complex evaluation relationship that we can simplify. Our software enables direct import of projects from your accounting system. The evaluatee indicates what projects they’ve billed hours on throughout the year, what they contributed, and which manager or partner supervised them. The indicated supervisors are assigned evaluations and can complete them easily thanks to the context, relevant work, and identifying information about the employee. Our evaluation progress tracker makes sure no billable work gets overlooked.
Analyze Overall Organization Results and Focus on Individuals
Once your evaluation cycle is in place and running smoothly, you need tools to review the results. Look at evaluation timelines to see which ones are complete and send out automated email reminders for the ones that aren’t. Use organization-wide dashboards to oversee everyone and individual dashboards to check on your employee performance journeys. Review year-over-year trends to see how everyone is advancing in the long-term. Build summary reports for offices, departments, or individuals. View ranking reports to pinpoint top performers and those who need more guidance.

What Clients Say About vi by Aderant
“The viEval product (and the full vi suite of products) has been a welcome change for the attorneys, Legal Talent Office, and IT here. We had asked for a good number of customizations, charts, and reports that are specific to the way our attorneys work. No matter what feature or enhancement we requested, the team at vi was able to accommodate it.”
—John M., Director of Application Services
“Great tool, great service. We had a homegrown application that was highly customized. There was fear that no product on the market could duplicate our app. viEval met all our needs. Having looked at other vendors, I’m sure the competition would not have been able to accommodate a lot of our bespoke requirements.”
— Daniel J., IT Business Analyst
“Very helpful with gathering feedback on candidates that we are recruiting as well as information on project performance for summer associates. The evaluation link is automated and sent through email and all of the evaluations are housed in one place. We also use it for mentor intake forms in order to help us match partner mentors with associates.”
— Lauren B., Attorney Recruitment and Professional Development Manager
“This is the only software that allows us to implement the requirements of our processes. vi by Aderant enables us to do what we need with our processes, including customized programming, if needed. We can use the software for more than evaluations. We also use them for training plans and coaching reports.”
— Debbie L., Senior HR Generalist
“Thorough Setup and Expert Assistance. Having a dedicated rep to walk us through every aspect of the setup was extremely helpful. Weekly check-ins and guided setup kept us on track. The customization that is available is perfect for our needs.”
— Katie T., Executive Director
“Not having to print stacks of evaluations that are outdated once printed has been a blessing. Easy to use and manipulate between platforms. Comparison to the previous platform is night and day and has made my life easier. Training has been awesome!”
— Debby S., Administrative Assistant
