The Employee insights dashboard provides a comprehensive overview of IT-related feedback, concerns and suggestions, directly from employees. Through feedback topics, recommended actions and comment details, it helps you identify and address the most critical user experience challenges across your organization.
The data used to populate this dashboard is derived from open-text comments provided by employees to a sentiment campaign. Employees can specify any topic of dissatisfaction in their comments. The system considers comments received within the last 90 days.
Processing time:
Daily: Sentiment analysis and topic assignment
Weekly: Summary generation and recommended actions
This dashboard is only visible to customers who have configured their sentiment campaign in the system. Refer to the Digital Experience Score Management documentation for more information.
Select the Digital Experience module from the main menu.
Select the Employee insights tab at the top of the page to open the dashboard.
Ensure you have the necessary permissions to access the Digital Experience module. If the dashboard is not visible, contact your Nexthink administrator for assistance.
The Summary panel offers an overview of key employee feedback trends and themes. This section includes:

Hover over any bar to reveal further details, including specific pain points or suggested improvements.
The Departments panel categorizes employee feedback by organizational units, such as Operations, Finance and Sales. Each department's bar displays the number of comments received, allowing you to easily identify which teams are most affected by specific issues. This visualization helps you quickly assess how feedback is distributed across the organization.
