Buyers look past Lattice when the annual contract floor, the add-on pricing for compensation and career modules, or a bundle they only half use no longer fits. Most go to 15Five, Leapsome or Culture Amp for a similar people-platform scope, or to Small Improvements and PerformYard for a leaner review tool.

6. Betterworks
Goal-driven performance management for large organizations · United States

Performance, learning and engagement suite · United States
Modular suites: a performance suite, a learning suite, recognition and engagement. Its per-user prices are a stated range, with a minimum of $7,500 a year. Recognition with a gift-card store and a built-in learning platform go further than Lattice's core.

11. Workday Performance Management
Performance and talent module inside Workday HCM · United States
Performance enablement sits inside Workday's Talent Optimization offering, on a Workday subscription, not as a standalone tool. It makes sense for companies already on Workday HCM, where employee records and reviews share one system, and is a heavy choice for anyone else.
Switch from Lattice if Workday is already your HR system and you would rather not run a second vendor.
Pricing: Part of a quote-based Workday HCM subscription; not sold as a standalone product. (none)

Questions and answers
Can I export my Lattice review data?
Yes, as CSV and PDF. A manager can download team review results as a CSV from the Reporting page, and admins can download all PDF review packets for a cycle as a zip. Goals export as a CSV with fields such as owner, status, parent goal and progress.
Can I get raw engagement survey responses out of Lattice?
Only if the option was enabled when the survey was created. The Lattice help center says the raw export setting cannot be changed after launch. Without it, you can export aggregated results but not individual responses.
What is the minimum contract and billing term at Lattice?
The minimum annual agreement is $4,000, and Lattice bills all contracts annually in US dollars. That comes from its pricing FAQ. There is no monthly option, so the exit date is set by the contract term.
Which HR systems does Lattice sync with?
Its help center lists HRIS integrations for Namely, Zenefits, BambooHR, Workday, ADP, Sapling, Gusto, Personio, UKG, TriNet, Humaans, HiBob and Rippling. A replacement tool needs a matching connector, or you rebuild the employee feed by CSV.
Does Lattice charge for implementation?
For performance management, Lattice states there are no additional costs for change management or implementation. All contracts include dedicated support from its customer success team. Alternatives differ: some quote services separately, so ask what onboarding costs before comparing seat prices.
Are compensation and career tools part of the base price?
No. The pricing page lists Compensation and Grow as add-ons on top of the base products, at $6 and $4 per seat a month. Some alternatives bundle these differently, so compare the total for the modules you use, not the headline price.
