Rater survey

A 360 survey raters actually finish

Sidelight’s survey takes about 10 minutes, works on any device and walks raters through one short section at a time, so more people finish and the feedback is better.

For raters

Designed for the people giving feedback

One section at a time

Raters see one short section per step with a clear progress bar. Open questions come together at the end.

Works on any device

Large tap targets and a clean layout on phones, tablets and laptops. Raters can stop and come back later.

15 languages

Raters pick their language and answer in it. Comments are translated into English in the report, with the original kept.

Help writing comments

Raters can turn rough notes into a clear comment, and see an optional tip if a comment needs an example or might reveal who wrote it.

A Need help button

Quick answers about anonymity, the rating scale and deadlines, right inside the survey.

Answer in Slack

Short check-ins can be answered in a Slack form, without opening a browser.
