## The panel's verdict

Perdoo, an OKR and strategy-execution product from Perdoo GmbH of Berlin, is strongest at its core: goals and feedback and integrations and portability each scored 7 with no spread — company, team and individual OKRs and KPIs, weekly check-ins, BambooHR and Factorial sync. Performance reviews sit at 4: customizable question sets answered by both parties read as a structured conversation, and we found no public information on rating scales, calibration or 360° input. Codetermination and privacy sits at 4: retention is published, while we found no public information on works-council documentation. Learning and development is the weakest criterion with the widest range, 0 to 2; the works council member scored 0, reasoning that a product that rates people "without any evidenced means of developing them" earns the bottom score. Pricing transparency spans 2 to 3 — we found no public monetary figure, and the captured pages give different figures for which plans include reviews. Sovereignty spans 4 to 5: the privacy policy states storage in the EU (Frankfurt, Germany), and we found no public information on a subprocessor list.

**Speaks for it:**
- Goals and feedback scored 7 with no spread, covering company, team and individual OKRs and KPIs aligned to Strategic Pillars
- Integrations and portability scored 7 with no spread, with BambooHR and Factorial sync, SSO, SCIM, a GraphQL API and CSV, PDF and PPT exports
- Retention is published: deletion from production within 30 days of termination, with backups rotated within 90 days
- A Superadmin can switch the AI Assistant off, and users choose the AI model per generation
- A free tier covers up to 5 people

**Held against it:**
- Learning and development scores span 0 to 2, and we found no public information on development plans or a skills or competency framework
- Performance reviews sit at 4, and we found no public information on rating scales, calibration or 360° input
- The performance review exports as a PDF of a single review rather than a structured record
- Pricing transparency spans 2 to 3, and we found no public monetary figure, pricing basis, minimum term or VAT treatment
- We found no public information on a subprocessor list or on where the connected AI models (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, Gemini) process data

**Best for:**
- You run strategy on OKRs and KPIs and want the year-end review to start from the goal record rather than memory
- You sync your HRIS from BambooHR or Factorial and provision users via SSO and SCIM
- You want goal history exportable as CSV or through the API for analysis outside the tool
- You want to pilot with up to 5 people on the free tier

**Avoid if:**
- You need rating scales, calibration or 360° input in your appraisal cycle; performance reviews scored 4 and we found no public information on any of these
- You need employee development; learning and development scores span 0 to 2, and the OKR Academy trains customers on the OKR method
- You must compute an annual cost before committing; we found no public monetary figure, so the annual invoice cannot be computed
- Your works council requires documentation on visibility rules, access logging and where AI processing runs; codetermination and privacy scored 4

## Scores by judge and criterion

Scores out of 5, each judge scoring independently against the published rubric (v1). "n/r" = not rated: the vendor publishes no price.

### The judges

- **The Head of HR** (v1.0): Runs the annual review cycle for four hundred people and has to defend every rating in it. Wants criteria fixed before the cycle starts, calibration across departments, reminders that chase managers so HR does not have to, and a review history the employee can see and sign.
- **The Managing Director** (v1.0): Runs a sixty-person company without a talent team and wants goals everyone can see, regular one-to-ones that actually happen, and a yearly conversation that is prepared rather than improvised. Has no patience for a suite that needs a consultant before the first review goes out.
- **The People Analyst** (v1.0): Owns the skills model, the succession bench and the training budget. Wants skills profiles with gaps against role requirements, learning tied to those gaps rather than to a course catalogue, talent reviews per key role, and data that can be exported and analysed outside the tool.
- **The Works Council Member** (v1.0): Has to sign the works agreement before any of this goes live. Asks who can read a manager's private note, how small a team may be before survey results stop being anonymous, how long ratings are kept, and whether any AI feature summarises or scores colleagues without a human deciding.
- **The HR IT Integrator** (v1.0): Connects the tool to the HR system and the identity provider and will be asked for the data when the contract ends. Wants org chart and manager relations synced from the HRIS, SSO and SCIM, a documented API, and a full export of reviews and goals rather than one PDF per person.
- **The Skeptic** (v1.0): Has heard "high-performance culture", "bias-free reviews" and "AI-powered growth" from every vendor. Reads for the anonymity threshold behind the anonymous survey, what the AI review summary was built from, whether the "skills engine" is more than a tag list, and whether five years of reviews leave with the customer.
