CompanyMood

CompanyMood is an employee-feedback platform for organizations that want to track workplace sentiment and follow up on what they hear. It is most compelling for European HR teams that need recurring mood check-ins alongside surveys and improvement workflows; small teams can start free, but broader use requires a paid plan.

Overview

Regular mood assessments are the core of CompanyMood: they give organizations a way to spot emerging strengths and problems in the working atmosphere. Surveys, reporting and tools for communicating improvements extend that feedback loop beyond a recurring rating.

CompanyMood targets organizations with 100 to 25,000 employees, particularly in DACH and Europe. Its free Teams plan stops at 30 people, so it is a useful small-group entry point, not a free option for most organizations in its target range. Team-level results are shown only for departments with at least five people, and employees cannot see which colleagues have signed up. That helps protect participation privacy, though very small departments may not get team-level results.

Key features

Surveys can be organized by company, department or role, with real-time online analysis and PDF reporting. The combination of pulse and engagement surveys, anonymous responses and action planning suits teams that want structured listening as well as recurring mood checks. Reporting also includes automated PDFs and CSV/XLS exports, giving HR teams options for sharing summaries or working with data alongside HR information.

Actions, statements, event pins, feedback chat and a suggestion box provide several ways to communicate and document improvements. This gives managers and employees follow-up channels beyond survey results, although the value depends on the organization using those tools to act on feedback.

Integrations include Slack, Microsoft Teams, Personio, Azure Active Directory and Microsoft 365. The EVA Slack bot proactively reminds employees to submit mood ratings, while the API can connect mood tracking to company software such as an intranet or employee platform. These are useful options for fitting check-ins into existing systems; API access and HRIS sync are reserved for Enterprise.

Android and iOS apps support push reminders and 14 languages, including participation by employees without PC workstations. CompanyMood says its infrastructure runs in the EU under GDPR requirements and that it performs regular penetration tests, a relevant assurance for organizations handling employee feedback.

Pricing

Teams is free for up to 30 people and includes the Moodbarometer, Suggestion-Box, mobile apps, PDF reports and a dashboard. It is a sensible way for a small group to try recurring feedback, but it does not include the topics, survey system, roles or unit-level reporting offered by Business.

Business costs 3€ per person/month, with a minimum price of €99 per month. It adds topics, surveys, statements and event pins, roles, and reporting by unit. The per-person rate may look manageable, but the minimum makes it a more substantial commitment for smaller organizations.

Enterprise costs 5€ per person/month and adds individual GDPR contracts, premium support, advanced filters, security options, API access and HRIS sync. It is the clearest fit for organizations that need those integrations or additional contractual and support provisions.

Platforms

CompanyMood supports Android, iOS, web and API access. Mobile apps broaden participation beyond desk-based employees, while the API is relevant to organizations integrating the service into their own software.

Who it's for

CompanyMood is best suited to European organizations that want regular employee mood measurement, segmented surveys and practical follow-up tools in one service. The free tier can suit a group of up to 30; organizations needing survey and unit-reporting capabilities should consider Business, while API access, HRIS sync or enhanced security options point to Enterprise. It is a weaker fit for teams that need team-level results from departments smaller than five or want those paid capabilities without a monthly minimum.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Mood checks, surveys and action-oriented feedback tools sit together, so organizations can collect input and record responses to it.
• Pros: Mobile apps, 14 languages and Slack reminders help include employees who are not regularly at a computer.
• Pros: EU infrastructure, stated GDPR compliance and regular penetration tests address important concerns for employee data.
• Cons: Teams is capped at 30 people and lacks the survey system and unit reporting that make the product more useful for broader programs.
• Cons: Business has a €99 monthly minimum, which can outweigh its per-person price for smaller organizations.
• Cons: The five-person department threshold means very small teams cannot receive team-level results.

Verdict

CompanyMood is a strong choice for European organizations that want recurring mood checks connected to surveys, reporting and improvement workflows, especially when mobile participation and HRIS integration matter. Its free plan offers a low-risk start for up to 30 people, but the Business minimum and Enterprise-only API and HRIS sync make it less attractive for smaller teams or organizations seeking those capabilities at a lower commitment.
