Hi @SumeetG ,

Hello Sarthak,

Usually, the functionalities are the same as I am using quizzes to evaluate user knowledge before adding them in groups, but I think same can be achieved using assessments. Please correct me I am wrong. But functionalities are same I feel. Is there any difference in functionalities of them?

Hi @SumeetG ,

The assessment application goes deeper than surveys with its advanced capabilities. An assessment allows you to evaluate, score, and rank items, and provide normalized/weighted results. For an assessment to work in the   platform, it has to have an assessable record (e.g. Project, Vendors, Sales) — which is not a requirement in the case of surveys.

 

With assessments, you can collect feedback from a broad base of category users and stakeholders  across your organization. You can create a single assessment to get feedback from different cross-functional units (e.g. Procurement, Finance, HR, Legal) by assigning different parts of the assessment to different stakeholders. You can easily group related metrics into categories and set weights  for each response. In addition, you can collect response and format decision matrices  and plot the collected data to report findings.

Common use cases for assessments include:

  1. Vendor assessment
  2. Demand assessment
  3. Project assessment
  4. GRC audit assessment
  5. Security assessment
  6. Sales/employee assessment

 

Please mark my answer correct amd heloful if this works for you
 
Thanks and Regards
