Goal Setting
14 TopicsAlternatives to Viva Goals?
Viva Goals being retired wasn't good news. It put many of us in the community in a pretty tough spot. There is less than a year to find a new OKR software and migrate. We really liked Viva Goals because our team could use it inside Microsoft Teams. Some of the alternatives we are considering switching to are: Teamflect WorkBoard Perdoo All three of these have great Microsoft Teams integration and solid OKR features. We are also considering other alternatives such as Profit Co and Lattice. Any opinions on or experience with these tools?216Views0likes1CommentRegarding Tableau integration and key result target updates
Hello! Does anyody have a solution share for the following two problems: 1. When connecting to Tableau the units of the metric seem to show billion times larger. Why so? 2. Can the OKR import Excel be used to efficiently update only metric targets that already exist in Goals and have Tableau integrations set up.237Views0likes1CommentUnable to invite external users to Microsoft Viva Goals
I need to share the dashboard with external users and have tried adding guest users to the Viva Goals OKRs, but they are unable to access the organization. Has anyone else encountered this issue, or can someone confirm if this feature is unavailable in Viva Goals?273Views0likes1CommentHow Team upload works when uplod team with existing name
We are working on scenario for client, they need to know the scenario if they apload now team via excel upload and they upload new team, but in Viva Goals already exist Team with exactly the same name. From manual we do not see what exactly happens then. Any detailed description? Have you tested such situation? Thank you!

Hi all, I have provocative idea coming through my mind during these days. Every time when you select hierarchy icon ("Add child item") on some of the items (Objective, Key Result, Initiative), new creation dialogue is predefined with data from origin item. I can imagine it should be more helpful and intuitive to respect the user who is creating new item instead. So if I select an item I wanna contribute to (OKR), it will be most probably me who will be an Owner, to be Check-in owner and my Team to be pre-set on new item, isn't it? By default now all these three are set same as they're on the item I clicked on "Add child item" upon. My thinking process is, that first I select OKR I want to contribute to and then I create my own one. With current approach I start with "+ Objective" (new Objective) and with alignment I have to search for relevant OKR. It's easy if there are few OKRS and somewhere around (Company, level above, team), but with more OKRs respectively with cross-functional contribution it's more and more tricky as the dialog for "Alignment" is as it is. Or ... if I use "Add new item", I have to change all three fields shown above. Would be great to have an option per user to switch from current to mentioned above, as I can expect not everyone has the same thinking process or procedure to build the OKR structure in Viva Goals. Is that feasible, do you think? Share your thoughts, comments? Did I miss something while adopting Viva Goals for our company? 😉290Views0likes0CommentsHow to customize the objectives and key results progress bar
HI, I no longer have access to customize the progress bar colors, even though I'm an administrator. When I select "additional goal settings" in the OKR template configuration tab, I no longer see this option. Thanks !233Views0likes0CommentsHow to Drive Team Performance and Results with Viva Goals
