# Getting Started

## What is 360 Review Club?

an application designed for conducting comprehensive review cycles within an organization. This manual explains how to use the application for both Admins and Staff members.

* **Unlimited Review Cycles and Assignments**

  Say goodbye to limits! Enjoy endless review cycles and assignments without any restrictions.
* **Customizable Forms for Everyone**

  Create as many forms as you need—manager reviews, peer reviews, and self-reviews. Because one size doesn’t fit all!
* **Assign Multiple Reviewers Effortlessly**

  Why do things one by one? Assign multiple reviewers in one go and save time for more important things—like coffee breaks.
* **Flexible Review Scheduling**

  Set it and forget it! Easily schedule when reviews start and end, so you can focus on more important things.

## Key Concepts

* **Admin**: The sole user type with management capabilities over staff data, review cycles, and assignments.
* **Review Cycle**: A structured period during which staff complete reviews of themselves, their peers, and subordinates.
* **Assignments**: Tasks under each review cycle, categorized into Self Review, Peer Review, and Manager Review.
* **Passwordless Authentication**: Staff members receive login links via their email to access the application without a password.
