360 Feedback Questionnaire FAQs

Choose a scale that fits the behaviors you are assessing and that evaluators can use consistently. Panoramic Feedback supports customizable scales, including common five-, seven-, and ten-point options.

Use labels that match the wording of the questions, explain the distinctions between points, and check the participant preview before launch.

Include the questions needed to assess the relevant behaviors, while keeping the time commitment reasonable. Panoramic Feedback does not impose a questionnaire-length restriction, but a long assessment can make thoughtful completion harder.
