Adoption Impact

Executives and Client Admins can open Adoption Impact. Until your organization has turned on monthly surveys it shows an empty state, and once surveys run it shows organization-level results, never an individual's answers.

What Adoption Impact shows

When your organization has turned on monthly surveys, Adoption Impact shows organization-level trends from those optional surveys. It is a read-only report, and it never shows an individual's answers.

These are self-reports. They do not establish causal impact, so read them as signals about adoption, not as proof that Stride caused a change.

If there are no results yet, the page says No survey results are available yet.

Check-in groups and Pulses

Results are grouped by Check-in number: everyone's first Check-in together, then everyone's second, and so on. A member who starts later joins the first group with their own first Check-in. Each Pulse a Client Admin sends is its own group, and earlier monthly surveys appear as their own groups. Dates are never shown. A Check-in is 20 questions and a Pulse is 10, and at least 3 questions must be answered to submit.

  • Live: a Check-in group or a Pulse updates as people answer. It appears once at least 5 people were assigned, and its figures follow the privacy rules below.
  • Missed, skipped, and unanswered Check-ins count as assigned, not as answers.
  • Open or Closed: an earlier monthly survey shows its status, and the results for an open one are not available until it closes.

Completion and the measures

For each group, Completion shows the share of assigned people who submitted the survey. A table then lists nine measures with their Current value and their Change from baseline. Each value shows the average and N, the number of people who answered.

  • The nine measures are Adoption index, Confidence, Motivation, Readiness item, Support, Ability, Readiness, Journey stage, and Self-reported quality.
  • Adoption index averages normalized usage frequency and workflow breadth on a 0 to 100 scale.
  • Confidence and quality use a 1 to 5 scale. Other composite scores use 0 to 100, and journey stage uses 0 to 6.
  • Ability, Readiness, and Self-reported quality are measured only in a Check-in. A Pulse shows Not measured this cycle for them.
  • Change from baseline compares current answers with the answers people first gave, where the questions are comparable.
  • Intended habits now used regularly and Reported any time saved add two simple rates for a group. The habits rate is measured only in a Check-in.
  • Question distributions and baselines opens, for each question, how many people answered (for example Answered 6 of 12) and the count of people who chose each answer, when those counts are safe to show. Stride withholds a count instead of showing it when too few people answered or skipped a question.

Privacy and withheld results

Results are withheld to protect privacy, for example when fewer than 5 people answered. A withheld result shows Withheld for privacy instead of a number, and it is never the same as zero.

Other labels you may see are No data, when there was nothing to report, Unavailable, when a result cannot be read or compared, and Not measured this cycle. Managers never see anyone's answers. They see whether their direct reports completed a survey, and the support notes managers write.

Financial ROI

Financial ROI appears for each financial period your Client Admin has entered. Stride uses only documented realized benefits and confirmed full program costs. Self-reported saved time is never converted into dollars.

  • Total program cost adds the six cost categories for the period: Licenses, Platform, Training, Participant time, Verification and rework, and Support.
  • Documented realized benefits is the benefit figure your Client Admin documented, or Unavailable when none was entered.
  • Financial ROI shows a percentage only when the costs are confirmed as complete and a benefit is documented. Otherwise it shows Unavailable.

Who sets surveys up

A Client Admin turns on monthly surveys, sets the timezone, sends Pulses, and enters financial periods under Surveys in Admin. Executives and Client Admins read the results here. Managers see completion and the support notes for their own team, in Team Check-ins, never answers.
