bloom 560m Reviews & Product Details

As a team lead responsible for 12 people at Amazon, I’ve found Bloom to be a real game-changer. Previously, I dreaded performance reviews—they were tedious and felt like a box-ticking exercise. Now, I actually look forward to our check-ins. What stands out most to me is how easy it is to track everyone’s progress. Instead of searching through old emails and scattered notes before meetings, I have everything I need in one place: goals, past feedback, and achievements.

The reminders for upcoming 1:1s and the ability to jot down discussion points throughout the week have been incredibly useful. I’m no longer rushing at the last minute to recall what I wanted to talk about. My team also seems more engaged, since they can clearly see their progress and add their own notes ahead of our meetings. The built-in templates have been invaluable as well—they help guide our conversations in a structured way without making them feel forced. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As someone who uses Bloom daily, my biggest frustration lies with the mobile app's performance. It frequently freezes or crashes when I try to add quick feedback after team meetings, which is especially irritating when I want to capture my thoughts right away. The reporting system is also a source of stress for me—compiling performance data for my quarterly leadership meetings takes much longer than it should. I've even had to build my own spreadsheets to track certain metrics because the platform doesn't provide the specific reports I need.

Although these problems aren't enough to make me stop using Bloom, they do turn what should be simple tasks into time-consuming ones. Overall, it's a reliable tool, but these issues can be quite frustrating, particularly during busy times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
