Engage

Employee listening software that turns feedback into action

Your people are telling you something.

The question is whether your organisation is set up to hear it, understand it, and do something about it before it's too late.

Evo Voices is the employee listening software built natively into PeopleXD. It sits alongside all your people data from day one, with no integration project and no duplicate records.

The gap between what leaders think and what employees feel is costing UK organisations £300bn a year.

Trusted by organisations of all shapes, sizes and industries

The engagement gap is bigger than most leaders realise

Only 48% of employees agree that their feedback has led to positive change.

Meanwhile, 85% of leaders believe it has. That gap is where culture erodes and where attrition quietly builds.

When you're relying on annual surveys and exit interviews, you're reading yesterday's news. By the time the data arrives, the people you most needed to keep have already decided to leave.

Evo Voices closes that gap. You get a real-time picture of how your people feel, the tools to act on it, and a way to show employees that what they said actually changed something.

Everything you need in one platform

Evo Voices brings surveys, anonymity controls, and real-time dashboards into the PeopleXD platform your teams already use. Your people data and your listening data live in the same place, which means the AI component can help you turn results into decisions rather than reports

People who feel heard stay

Organisations that close the feedback loop consistently report survey participation rates above 80%. Highly engaged teams experience 21–51% lower turnover than their peers (Gallup).

Replacing a single employee costs between 50% and 200% of their annual salary. Flight risk signals surface engagement trends and flag at-risk individuals before they hand in their notice.

For a 1,000-employee organisation, preventing just five leavers saves an estimated £29,000, based on benchmarks across 19 sectors. That figure doesn't account for the productivity, morale, and institutional knowledge you hold onto when people feel their voice matters.

Reach every employee, wherever they work

Listening only works if it reaches people.

Evo Voices delivers survey invitations, reminders, and action prompts through every channel your employees already use. There's no separate login and no context switch required to respond.

Your employees can respond through:

  • Evo Navigator feed
  • Evo mobile app
  • Mobile push notifications
  • Desktop notifications
  • Email
  • Evo Workflow Automation

Managers configure distribution, reminders, and follow-up sequences once. Evo Workflow runs them on schedule. This matters most for frontline and deskless workers, who can complete surveys on the go, in stages, without losing progress.

Senior leadership gets a picture of sentiment across the whole organisation - not just from the people who happen to be at a desk.

Turn intelligence into action

Survey results only become useful when the right people can act on them while the signal is still current

Evo Voices moves live results, comment themes, and demographic patterns directly into executive briefings, action plans, and follow-up - all inside PeopleXD.

Here's how the loop works:

  • Evo Researcher drafts board briefings and action plans from live survey data
  • Comment themes and demographic patterns surface with no manual analysis required
  • AI proposes. HR leaders approve. Human oversight at every step.
  • Evo Navigator and Evo Workflow Automation carry agreed actions back to managers and employees
  • Everything sits in the same platform as your headcount, absence, and payroll data

Your questions about employee listening software, answered

Clear answers to the questions HR and People leaders ask most often - from what the software does to how it compares to standalone platforms.

What is employee listening software?

Employee listening software is a platform that gives organisations a structured, always-on way to gather, understand, and act on feedback from their people. It provides channels like pulse surveys and sentiment tracking, so HR leaders and managers have a continuous, real-time picture of how their workforce feels. Platforms like Evo Voices translate that picture into board-ready intelligence and visible action, with the goal of improving retention, reducing disengagement costs, and giving HR leaders data they can act on.

What does 'employee listening' mean?

Employee listening refers to the practices organisations use to gather, analyse, and respond to employee feedback in order to improve employee experience, engagement, and satisfaction. Voice of employee software gives organisations the infrastructure to do this at scale, consistently, and with the anonymity controls that make feedback credible. It covers everything from structured surveys and pulse check-ins to open suggestion channels and sentiment analysis.

Effective employee listening means feedback isn't just collected - it's acted on, and employees can see the connection between what they said and what changed. Organisations that close this loop consistently report higher participation rates and stronger retention outcomes.

Who benefits from using an employee listening platform?

HR and People Directors get board-ready intelligence and a real-time read on organisational sentiment, with the data to make the case for people investment rather than relying on instinct. HR teams and People Managers can launch surveys without IT dependency, surface themes automatically, and turn feedback into visible action plans. Line managers get results scoped automatically to their own team, with clear next steps - no need to interpret raw data themselves.

Employees get a voice that's genuinely anonymous, a survey they can complete in the flow of their day, and the ability to see that what they said was heard and acted on.

Why Evo Voices?

Evo Voices is native to PeopleXD, which means it doesn't rely on integrations or syncing. With single sign-on across the whole platform and data flowing across every module, senior leaders don't need to export data to analyse it. When feedback comes in, the right people see it live and act on it - all inside the platform they already use every day.

How does Evo Voices compare to competitors?

Platforms like Peakon, Culture Amp, Qualtrics, and Perceptyx connect with an HR platform through integrations, APIs, or data imports. That relationship brings additional considerations: the integration project needs managing throughout the contract, with data flows to govern and separate security and data residency decisions to make. Your employee data also lives outside your core HR environment. Evo Voices is a native module within PeopleXD. It works with all your existing people data, and HR leaders can query live data and build action plans without leaving the platform.
