21 Feb 2025 - Edit Questions in a Live Performance Review Cycle
Performance administrators can now edit questions even after a Performance Review Cycle has gone live.

This update provides more flexibility, so you can make small but important adjustments without disrupting your review process.

2 Feb 2025 - Decommissioning of Performance User Data Export
We’ve made the decision to decommission the Performance User Data Export feature with the rollout of our new and improved Perform 2.0 experience.
The Performance User Data Export has seen relatively low usage. To streamline the platform, we’re focusing on features that provide the most value to our customers. You can still download performance data for users using alternative bulk download options, which are outlined in our Performance Export Options article. If you still require access to the Performance User Data Export, please reach out to us at privacy@cultureamp.com, and we’ll be happy to assist you. Thank you for your understanding as we continue to enhance the platform.
