Before Plecto came into play, things looked very different for emploio. Most of their data was entered manually, turning reporting into a bottleneck and making it nearly impossible to track key numbers in real time. As a result, motivation slipped. People couldn’t see their progress toward targets or how their efforts fit into the bigger picture.
Solution
The reason behind searching for a new solution was simple: the company needed to automate data visualization and stop wasting time on manual KPI tracking.
Just as important was the ability to manage everything remotely, so leaders could support and guide the team even when not physically present. Without such a tool, both managers and consultants were essentially working in the dark, relying on outdated spreadsheets.
The introduction of Plecto transformed performance management and brought clarity to KPIs. Instead of waiting for reports or wondering how they were performing, employees could now instantly see their own progress toward targets.
This transparency not only made performance tracking easier, but also gave employees the chance to react quickly. Whenever someone saw they were falling behind, they knew exactly when it was time to „put the pedal to the metal” - to step it up and close the gap.
Managers, on the other hand, gained the ability to support their teams proactively, whether in the office or working remotely. With Plecto, performance management turned from guesswork into clear, data-driven action.
Why Plecto? The Golden Middle
When asked why the company decided to go with Plecto over other competitors, Zeynel, the Process Manager put it simply: „Plecto isthe golden middle between the competitors”.
„Plecto was actually the simplest, the most straightforward [tool],” he adds, both in terms of daily use and the actual implementation process. Rolling out the tool was straightforward, even for people without a technical background. Within no time, the team was able to build dashboards that were easy to follow and adapt to their specific needs.
Results
Once Plecto was in place and fully integrated with other tools, like Aircall and HubSpot, the team’s performance skyrocketed. „Since their introduction, our employees stick to the defined activity targets99% of the time,” Zeynel says. „We were also able to increase our scheduling meetings and appointment ratesby 300%.”
Moreover, this solution created a kind of flywheel effect: “The more meetings we schedule, the more people we have in setting, the more in closing - and accordingly, the more deals we can complete.”
What had once been a time-consuming, manual process turned into a smooth, data-driven system that motivated the team and delivered measurable growth.
"Plecto is very motivating, especially to see the daily results directly. At the same time, it also serves as inspiration - you can exchange ideas with seniors or current top performers and adopt best practices."

Beyond visualisation, Plecto’s gamification features also played a crucial role in boosting motivation across the team. Real-time dashboards and contests brought an extra spark of energy, turning daily achievements into reasons to cheer. Features like coins, personalized songs and even Cristiano Ronaldo’s „Siuuuu!” notification made every success feel like scoring in the Champions League.
On top of that, the team actively uses Plecto’s coaching module. It enables managers to step in proactively when they notice something is off and turn these insights into targeted coaching moments that help employees grow.
When asked which areas of the organization benefited most from working with Plecto, Zeynel answered that it was primarily management and the sales department, which focuses on quickly connecting with suitable sales representatives, sales managers and sales leaders. The most valuable element for their team is clearly the dashboards, because „we can see at a glance where we stand and how much is left to reach our goals.”
