Performance Enhancements: Faster Report Loading and Data Imports

April 2025

We’re excited to announce the release of major performance upgrades across the platform, delivering a significantly faster and more efficient user experience.

Effective April 7, 2025 users will notice dramatic speed improvements in key areas, including report loading, PDF and PowerPoint exports, and census file imports.

These optimizations mean less time waiting—and more time analyzing, presenting, and acting on your data.


Raw Data Automation to Internal Systems

March 2025

If you import Raw Data exports from People Element into internal systems like an HRIS or BI tool, manual work is no longer needed. Our new Raw Data Automation feature securely connects survey data to your systems with automated, scheduled transfers.

Perfect for ongoing surveys like Exit or New Hire, or for consolidating vendor data into custom dashboards. Easily schedule automatic transfers of raw data files to an SFTP server at your preferred time. To set it up, contact your People Element representative.
