Overview
Qualtrics Employee Experience is software for engagement and pulse surveys, employee lifecycle feedback from candidate to exit, and 360 development feedback. AI reads large volumes of comments, surfaces trending issues, and gives managers personalized insights and recommended actions. Dashboards track results in real time, and benchmarks compare culture against a large external dataset. It sits on the wider Qualtrics platform used for customer experience.
Teams pick Qualtrics when employee listening needs to connect to customer and business metrics rather than live in a standalone survey tool. Pricing is quote-based, with no public rate card, and buying starts with a product tour. The REST API is a separately purchased feature, and Qualtrics provides MCP servers for its JSON APIs so AI tools can query and update data.
