🌟 Overview: Benchmarking in flowit

Updated over 5 months ago

The new Benchmarking feature in flowit brings powerful comparison tools to your fingertips. Whether you're a team lead or working with organization-wide insights, this update helps you better understand how teams, roles, or even industries stack upβ€”so you can turn data into impact.


πŸ” What is Benchmarking?

Benchmarking allows you to compare survey results across different groups, such as:

  • Teams
    ​
    ​

  • Job roles
    ​
    ​

  • Age groups
    ​
    ​

  • Industry averages
    ​
    ​

With this feature, you can easily identify strengths and areas for improvement in a visual and intuitive way.


🧭 Where to Find It

You’ll find the Benchmarking button (Compare groups) on the AI Dashboard. Just click it, and you’ll be guided through the comparison setup.


πŸ› οΈ How It Works

  1. Define your comparison groups
    ​
    You can group users based on team affiliation or other stored user attributes (e.g., job title, location, etc.).
    ​
    ​

  2. View results
    ​
    For each rating question, you'll see average scores displayed in bar charts. Hover over group names to see which users are included.
    ​
    ​

  3. Section-based analysis
    ​
    If your survey has multiple sections, you can choose to analyze by section instead of individual questions.
    ​
    ​

  4. Add averages
    ​
    Use the dropdown to:
    ​
    ​

    • Add survey-wide averages
      ​
      ​

    • Compare with industry benchmarks (based on data from FHNW and Kalaidos University)
      ​
      ​

  5. The bars will change color to reflect performance:
    ​
    ​

    • 🟩 Green: Above average
      ​
      ​

    • 🟧 Orange: Near average
      ​
      ​

    • πŸŸ₯ Red: Below average
      ​
      ​

  6. Download your data
    ​
    Export results to Excel for deeper analysis or reporting.
    ​


πŸ‘₯ Who Can Use It?

All users with Insight Rights on the AI Dashboard have access to this feature.

  • Team Leads can compare groups within their own teams and benchmark against overall survey averages.
    ​
    ​

  • Admins can define broader comparison groups across the organization.
    ​
