More about: About Echometer

In Echometer there are two separate software solutions that are available within each workspace in Echometer:

  • 1:1 tool: Software for planning and conducting 1:1 meetings and tracking employee development
  • Retrospective tool: Software for planning and moderating retrospectives and tracking team development through team health checks

Both are independent software solutions, so they can be used separately from each other.

However, they work according to the same principles and aim to achieve the same added value: The continuous improvement of agile teams. In this respect, the simultaneous use of both software solutions is recommended.

Echometer is a software for managers of agile teams with which you can easily conduct retrospectives and 1:1 meetings.

In addition, managers can use the Team Health Checks in Echometer to visualize trends in team development (e.g. by measuring Spotify Health Checks or psychological safety). The findings from the team Health Checks can then be used in team retrospectives and evaluated across teams. Pulse checks can be used to automate regular team health surveys.
