Frequently asked questions

What is a team health check?
A team health check is a short, recurring survey where everyone on the team rates the same set of dimensions, such as delivery, ways of working or psychological safety, and then discusses the results together. The score is not the point. The conversation it starts, and the actions the team commits to afterwards, are.
How is a team health check different from a retrospective?
A retrospective looks back at one sprint and asks what to change next. A health check rates the same dimensions on the same scale every cycle, so you get a trend rather than a snapshot. Most teams run both, and in TeamRetro they share one action list, so what a health check surfaces carries into the next retro with an owner and a due date.
How is a team health check different from an employee engagement survey?
An engagement survey is usually run once or twice a year by HR, across the whole organization, and reports upward. A health check belongs to the team: it runs on the team's own cadence, the team sees its own results in the same session, and the team decides what to do about them. TeamRetro is built for the second, which is why results arrive as a radar to discuss rather than a report someone else reads.
Are team health check responses anonymous?
They can be. Each health check runs fully anonymous, with aliases, or with names shown, and individual comments carry their own anonymity toggle. Ratings stay private until the survey closes, so the first answer does not anchor everyone else.
How often should a team run a health check?
Quarterly suits most teams, or every two to three sprints for a faster-moving one. That is often enough that a dip shows up while you can still act on it, and far enough apart that people are not re-rating the same dimensions from memory. TeamRetro can set a health check to recur, so the cadence holds without anyone chasing it.
Can we track team health trends over time and across teams?
Yes. Every result plots on a team radar, and timelines show each dimension moving across successive checks, with statistics such as mean, range and standard deviation behind them. On the Enterprise plan, cross-team reporting rolls those trends up across a portfolio of teams, so you can see which teams need attention.
How does TeamRetro compare with Parabol and Echometer for health checks?
As of September 2026, TeamRetro has 45+ ready-made health check models in English, four rating scales, custom models, trend radars and cross-team rollups, in eight languages, alongside retrospectives and estimation in the same tool. Parabol's rebuilt Team Health asks five Likert questions per cycle across five fixed categories, shows a streak rather than a trend line, has no cross-team rollup or export, is English only, and sits on its paid plans. Echometer is survey-first, built around psychology-based pulse questions rather than a model library and radar, so it is the better fit if you want a recurring pulse without a meeting to facilitate. Parabol is the simpler choice if your team already runs its retros there and five Likert questions a cycle is enough. All three are moving, so check each vendor's own pages before you decide.
How much does a team health check tool cost, and is there a free trial?
TeamRetro is priced by the number of teams rather than per active user, and health checks, retrospectives, estimations, stand-ups and maturity models are unlimited on every plan. The Single Team plan covers up to 25 members, and every plan above it has unlimited members. There is a 30 day free trial with no card required. See plans and pricing.
