WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH VIVA GOALS?
Viva Goals retirement: what it means for you
Microsoft has officially announced that Viva Goals will be retired on December 31, 2025. Existing customers will keep access until that date, but no new feature development has been done since December 5, 2024. This gives organizations a limited window to export their data and move to a Viva Goals alternative that is actively maintained and future-proof.
If you are running OKRs across multiple teams, you need a Viva Goals alternative that is actively developed, supported, and ready to scale with your strategy — not one that is in maintenance mode. PatPat360 combines OKR management with employee engagement, recognition, and continuous feedback in a single platform, making it the most complete Viva Goals replacement for organizations that want to go beyond simple goal tracking.
With PatPat360 isn't just a Viva Goals alternative. It's an upgrade.
A future-proof Viva Goals replacement for strategy and people.

How a global tire company modernized performance and engagement.
A leading tire manufacturer with over 7,300 employees across Italy, Turkey, Brazil, and Egypt decided to move away from an outdated appraisal module in their HR suite and adopt PatPat360 as their Viva Goals alternative for OKR management and employee engagement.
They selected PatPat360 to:
- Modernize performance appraisal using OKR evaluations and continuous feedback
- Increase employee engagement through recognition, pulses, and surveys
- Identify and train change agents (OKR Leaders and Masters) with HOW4 Organizational Network Analysis
The result: a more transparent, data-driven process that combines business objectives, behaviours, and engagement in a single platform. Employee engagement scores improved by 23% within the first two quarters of adoption.
