The Benchmark Group filter in engagement campaign results lets HR Admins compare their organization's engagement data against anonymized, aggregated data from similar organizations — by industry, company size, or region.
Required access: Engagement Campaign Results. Available on Engage, Legacy Perform, and Total Platform pricing packages.
Feature Structure
What the Benchmark Group filter does
The Benchmark Group filter compares your organization's engagement results against external benchmarks. Benchmarks are available at both the company level and group level.
You can apply benchmark filters to the following metrics:
- Engagement Score — Summary Report and Engagement Report
- Engagement Statements — Engagement Report
- Driver Statement Scores — Statements Report
- eNPS — eNPS Report
- Manager Effectiveness Statements — Statements Report
Benchmark dimensions (industry, company size, and region) can be applied individually or combined with other filters to refine the comparison group.

Default benchmark
By default, engagement results are compared to 15Five's Global Benchmark. Admins can change this by selecting a different benchmark using the Benchmark Group filter.
How benchmarks are maintained
Benchmarks are updated weekly using anonymized, aggregated data from 15Five customers who completed engagement surveys in the past 18 months.
A benchmark requires data from at least 10 companies in a given category. If a benchmark drops below this threshold, it remains available for up to 4 weeks before being removed.
Benchmark percentiles are frozen at the time an engagement campaign ends. They do not change when reviewing historical data.
