Filters and comparisons help you find differences between teams. Both are on the Insights tab, next to Search questions.

​
Filter results

Use the filters to narrow every chart to one population: You can combine filters. For example, choose a group and a job title to see engineers in one office. Filters use each person’s current job title, groups, and manager. They don’t use the values from the time the person answered. People with no value appear under No job title, No employee group, or No manager.

Compare groups

1

Select Compare

The button shows None when no comparison is active.
2

Choose a dimension

Choose Job title, Groups, or Reports under.
3

Select the values to compare

Search the options, then select the groups you want to show side by side.
Each question then shows one result per group. For Single Select and Multi-Select questions, a Heatmap shows the groups side by side.

​
Anonymous pulses

Anonymous pulses protect small groups:
  • Each run needs at least 3 responses before its results show. Until then, you see “Not enough responses yet”.
  • Groups with fewer than 3 responses can’t be selected. Their options show “Requires at least 3 responses”.
  • If a selected group falls below the minimum, you see “Insights unavailable”. Remove that group or choose different ones.
Filters on the Responses tab aren’t available for anonymous pulses, except Run. See Anonymity and privacy.

​
Filter by answers with Windy

The Insights tab filters by people, not by answers. To filter by answers, ask Windy. For example:
“@Windy how did people who rated workload 1 or 2 in the latest engagement pulse answer the manager support question?”
Windy uses the same access rules and anonymous minimums as Insights. See Ask Windy about results.

​
FAQs

Yes, if each group has at least 3 responses. Use Groups for departments and Reports under for a manager’s team. Smaller groups stay hidden to protect anonymity.
Departments work as filters when they exist as groups in Windmill. If your departments aren’t set up as groups, use Reports under or Job title instead.
