Why A Live Demo

Step 1

Founder Experience

After growing a performance management company to serve over 1,200 companies, the founders learned that every company's people challenges are unique. A live demo lets us show you exactly how Upward365 would work with your team structure, industry, and management style.

Step 2

Built for Your Size

This isn't enterprise software scaled down or small business tools scaled up. It's built specifically for 50-1,000+ employee companies, and the demo reflects that focus.

Step 3

Honest Conversation

No sales pitch. Just experienced professionals showing what they built and having a real conversation about whether it fits your management style.

No Pressure...Ever!

Talk to real humans who care about your success

After 15 years in performance management, we learned that the biggest barrier to prospects contacting us wasn't the product—it was fear of being pressured into a sale.

So we don't do that.

Here's what happens when you contact us:

  • Real conversation with someone who understands your challenges
  • Honest answers about whether we're the right fit (even if that means we're not)
  • No pushy follow-ups or aggressive sales tactics
  • Time to think, ask questions, and make the right decision for your team

What you'll learn:
 
  • Whether Upward365 solves your specific problems
  • How our Long View philosophy translates to better service
  • What to expect from implementation and ongoing support
  • Real pricing with no hidden fees
We care more about finding the right long-term customers than maximizing short-term closes.
 
No pressure…ever!

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions We Hear From Growing Companies

How is this different from other platforms?

Most focus on either performance OR engagement. We connect both because that's how people actually work - performance without engagement context misses retention risks, engagement without performance data misses coaching opportunities.

What's your experience in this space?

Over 15 years building and scaling a performance management platform that grew to serve over 1,200 mid-market companies. We've seen what works in the real world and built Upward365 based on those lessons plus everything we wished we'd done differently.

Can we start with just one module?

Absolutely. You can start with Performance now, or begin with Engagement. If you need both from the start, our combined subscription saves you money compared to subscribing separately. Each module requires an annual commitment, and you can add the second module at any point during your subscription.
