Lattice

Avantages

The ability of adding the goals of my team and the automated tracking makes my work so much easier. I used to calculate the goals and the achieved percentages all manually before .

Inconvénients

Nothing that I don't like about it, it keeps me organized plus that it saves me a lot of time.

Avantages

Its simplicity (UX/UI), and its native integrations with Slack

Inconvénients

I didn't dislike anything about it, it's easy to use and does what we're expecting it to do.

Avantages

We love that we can add our Ways of Being (which our our company's values) in the system so that we can reinforce those within our performance management tool. We also like how easy the system is to use. It was easily adopted within the organization. They are also always making improvements to the system so we know the software will grow as our company grows.

Inconvénients

There are some aspects that are not customizable (e.g. the review cycles) that would be nice to have more control over. I also wish you could have more than one manager attached to an employee. But my dislikes are very minimal overall.

Avantages

Lattice is a good choice for managing internal surveys on company relevant topics. To assure privacy, the answers can be anonymized.

Inconvénients

Lattice can be integrated with other applications such as Slack, which in general is a plus. On the other hand, whit this type of integration Lattice frequently sends push notifications that can be disturbing.

Avantages

It makes performance reviews very easy. Clear questions as templates.

It helps everyone be more focused on their OKRs.

Its very easy to use.

Inconvénients

The integration with Slack could be improved. So many notifications disrupt the day to day work. It should be more customizable.

Avantages

Lattice is an easy tool to do 360 performance reviews. It integrates with Slack and sends email reminders. It automates the whole process of nominating and reviewers and collecting their reviews. It's a simple product that does what it's supposed to!

Inconvénients

It doesn't provide anything unique regarding performance reviews. I was hoping it would offer a new innovative way of doing them...

Avantages

I like that it provided the tools to help our company run better performance reviews and provide feedback to the team. Our managers got engaged with it quickly and started to share valuable feedback so that we could build a stronger team.

Inconvénients

We had some issues setting up automatic scheduling of one on ones. It got better later, but I find that it was too difficult for some of our less technical managers to use.

Avantages

I love everything about this software. The best part is the 1:1 agenda and the collaboration on it.

Inconvénients

I would love to see where we can integrate the google calendar for 1:1 with the agenda and if the 1:1 gets rescheduled then it can reschedule in lattice automatically.

Avantages

The integration capabilities of Lattice are wonderful. Mostly we have used the integration into Slack, which has been really helpful. Reminders of upcoming 1:1 meetings, adding agenda items (which can be housed/managed in Lattice), praise/accolades, polling, etc. We (as users/employees) were nervous about adopting yet another technology, but it's been easy to use and the integrations make it pretty painless to adopt.

Inconvénients

The privacy settings on meeting notes or employee feedback was somewhat of a concern, as an employee. Depending on how HR and administration sets the privacy, a number of levels above me could see the notes and feedback from my own supervisor. As far as I know, the employee does not set the privacy settings, but rather the HR or admin does. This could be how our own instance is set up, but it has been a concern.

Avantages

Lattice centralizes the core functions around employee administration, including reviews, goal-setting, etc. It is easy to use and does not require much configuration or ramp-up time.

Inconvénients

The number of templates that are provided for reviews and job paths is extremely limited. The platform also seems to lag at times and sometimes times out while I am using it.

Avantages

Our company used Lattice for the first time this year during our annual review process, and I found the software to be extremely intuitive and easy to use. Nothing about the navigation was complex. I especially liked the auto-save feature which insured that even if my browser or computer crashed, I wouldn't lose my saved work. Lattice also offers a robust Help Center to answer any questions.

Inconvénients

The Org Chart feature is cool but it's very hard to navigate without accidentally zooming out (admittedly this could just be an issue with the Chrome browser).

Avantages

It's easy to use. You can jump on it with no knowledge and no need to research anything. UX is very simple.

Inconvénients

It seems quite limited to me in terms of features and rather bland. I don't see how this software stands out.

Avantages

The customer support is amazing. They truly partner with you to make sure you get the most out of the solution.

Inconvénients

While the demographic scoring is really good, they have a tough time mixing in behavioral scoring into a single score/rank. Typically they have to create another field and then combine the 2 scores for something like A-1, B3, D1, etc.

It would also be nice if Sales had some behavioral insights that showed them what behavior the lead did that gave them the score they have.

Avantages

I love how simple and straight forward it is to use! It really streamlines the performance review process and makes it so easy to access everything because it's all in one site. The reviews I've done through lattice have been easy to navigate and clear. It's nice to have one central place to go to in order to submit reviews instead of having to juggle multiple documents or pages for different reviews.

Inconvénients

I think the only complaint that I can think of is that sometimes the frequency of the reminder emails felt like a little much. However, that being said, without those emails it's very likely that the performance reviews would have slipped my mind until the last minute. Other than that I have enjoyed my experience so far and found it fairly innovative and easy to use.

Avantages

Lattice has a terrific user interface and intuitive features that make it easy to track your goals, amend them and move into the directions of self-improvement and innovation. Our company uses this as a means of providing feedback, planning meetings, etc. As a result, everything is integrated in one central place, making it a great tool for growth.

Inconvénients

Not really anything. At first, getting the hang of its features and utilizing it seemed like a drag, but it's miles ahead of other types of similar software in this class.

Avantages

Our organization recently started using Lattice to track feedback (great feature), 1 on 1s and weekly updates (after previously relying on a variety of other solutions like Asana or a Google Doc) and I’ve enjoyed the switch. The fact that unresolved talking points or objectives automatically roll into following 1 on 1’s seems so simple but in my opinion is a real game changer (nothing ever get missed week to week). We will soon be rolling out performance management (currently handled by BambooHR) and career growth and I’m looking forward to taking advantage of those features.

Inconvénients

I did find jumping between updates and 1 on 1s a bit clunky at times. The UI/UX for that experience specifically could be improved.

Avantages

Lattice has been great for aligning with colleagues in and outside of their respective teams when it comes to achieving bigger picture goals of the organization. It's been super helpful to see how we're doing as a company with meeting our goals that have a big impact.

Inconvénients

Lattice's alert system could be better when it comes to quickly approaching or lapsed deadlines. Getting a proactive email and being able to control who gets those emails would be helpful in improving the apps transparency. This should also extend into Slack alerts.

Avantages

Everything is at the same place: 1:1s, quarterly and annual reviews, and peers feedback. Overall a nice product.

Inconvénients

It's sometimes difficult to find all the information when filling in some reviews. When an employee switches from a team to another, the new manager has access to all the employee's past reviews but the former manager loses everything so there's no 'transitioning period' where both the former and the new manager could have access to the past reviews for a limited time.
OKRs are difficult to manage in Lattice.

Avantages

I like how Lattice organizes OKRs by team in a central place, and then how managers can connect individual team members' OKRs to milestones. It's a pretty simple solution, but it's so much better than systems I've used in the past.

Also, a simple feature I really enjoy is the Slack integration. Every time our team makes progress toward an OKR, it automatically sends a message to a dedicated Slack channel. This makes staying up to date very easy.

Inconvénients

Sometimes Lattice can be confusing, in that OKRs from different users are hard to visualize within they're larger context. I wish there was a view that arranged OKRs into an org chart of some kind, but so far I've not been able to find anything other than the traditional nested-list view. It's not ideal, but in many circumstances it's probably fine.

Avantages

It was efficient and effective in keeping track of goals. I like that there were multiple ways I could measure the achievement of goals, and that there were different categories and subcategories I could set my goals as.

Inconvénients

I did not like how there were constant reminders to update goals every quarter. I think it should have simply carried over and not said it was a goal from the previous quarter.

Avantages

I like being notified within Slack via the Lattice app integration when meeting with supervisors are and what is on the agenda

Inconvénients

Subtasks within OKR building could be more functional

Avantages

Super well-integrated and glitch-free design. You can tell the software engineers are perfectionists here. Lattice really helps with overall management with your other colleagues, setting up meetings with to-do lists contained within. It also integrates nicely with slack.

Inconvénients

Nothing I have to complain about here. I also don't use it as much as the other software, so if I find anything down the line, I'll update my review.

Avantages

Lattice is a great all-around tool for team management. It's great to be able to run things like Performance Reviews, OKRs and seeing an Org Chart all in one place. It's definitely a one-stop shop in that regard.

Inconvénients

I find it can be a bit cumbersome clicking through all of the various layers of an OKR. It's not the most intuitive experience.

Avantages

Lattice provides an easy way to stay on track with overall company or team goals. We use it to track our general progress towards KPIs without including all the nitty gritty details.

Inconvénients

The filter and search function is not very intuitive, but this could boil down to user error rather than faulty functionality.

Avantages

Easy to use for employees and very easy to administer for HR team

Inconvénients

Reporting is not entirely customizable. I wish i could write and format my own reporting.

Avantages

I like Lattice, but I am not a huge fan of feedback HR software in general. It does allow my manager and I to keep our 1:1s more productive and give general feedback.

Inconvénients

There aren't any real "cons" with Lattice. It is just something you have to keep up with depending on how involved your company is with it.

Avantages

Lattice allows you to forecast and gain key insights into how your sales and business development team is performing to target. Integrates well with Salesforce CRM.

Inconvénients

Lattice does take some time to use and set up when configuring reports and insights.

Avantages

Finally, an easy, straight forward way to handle the reviews and 1:1's with your employees.

Inconvénients

Some little UI bugs.. like missing the ability to cancel meetings once they are created and etc.

Avantages

Love that trackable 1:1s and the ability to leave reviews for my colleagues - if to them directly OR to their manager.

Inconvénients

It' quite simple so I just see the potential for so much more functionality. Other than that I don't see that many flaws.

Avantages

Our company had tried out several different systems and no company seemed to align with what we were looking for. After a few months of trial and error with other systems we purchased this software. It was exactly what we were looking for in performance reviews. It integrated with our HRIS. The UI is there. It's super easy to use. The analytics are awesome.
Peer feedback is a breeze. This is exactly what we were hoping to find. Great product. Great customers service. Our team has been really impressed with this company.

Avantages

Easy to navigate, easy to see higher level company goals and objectives

Inconvénients

There are many different pages, I'd prefer more views within a single dashboard.

Avantages

It's extremely useful how I'm notified about upcoming 1:1s and I can collaborate via email and a Slack integration

Inconvénients

I feel like there are other capabilities and other use cases that I just have no idea about.

Avantages

What I like most is that it helps managers keeps track of conversations, feedback and goals for your team.

Inconvénients

What I like least is that some features are not very self explanatory. Some of the features do require you to really understand all the different functions.

Avantages

I really enjoy using lattice within my 1on1s with my managers as it makes feedback so easy to keep track of!

Inconvénients

Some of the features are a little bit confusing to use in how they relate to overall company goals, but nothing too bad, just takes some time to learn!

Avantages

It's intuitive and easy to use, plus it gives the team reminders and insights about the long term goals.

Inconvénients

If you are not used to OKR goals then it might seem tedious to update the platform. Otherwise it's a great tool for transparency and collective tracking!

Avantages

Visually engaging, easy to use, price is reasonable, triggers and automation are very helpful with managing a team.

Inconvénients

The home page or default page that it moves people to isn't as intuitive as it could be. Feedback is very helpful, but being at the top is kind of confusing for those employees only using Check ins.

Avantages

It is easy to set goals and see how other teams or coworkers are doing

Inconvénients

I wish the organizational chart was a little easier to navigate

Avantages

- makes employee revews/goal setting seamless and less intimidating
- increases transparency across the organization
- easy to use and adapt after coming from different systems
- always improving software

Overall: Lattice is helping our company make performance reviews less daunting, as well as helping us completely revamp our performance management process since the software is so easy to use.

Inconvénients

Some aspects that are not customizable. it would help a lot of if you could add more than one manager to an employee. Overall only thing I can complain about right now.

Avantages

I am part of an SEO agency and we have monthly goals to reach. Lattice is helping me to keep a track on my goals.

Inconvénients

There is nothing I would complain about this app.

Avantages

A performance management tool that allows me to capture 360 feedback for, and from staff. The report function is outstanding

Inconvénients

Couldn't pick fault with it. It did take a while to learn how to use it but once established its great

Avantages

It is easy to use and see others goals within your company

Inconvénients

The key results and objectives is a little confusing

Avantages

Forces employees to answer the same review questions and can organize reviews by manager and self-reviews

Inconvénients

Hierarchy of employees often causes errors for who is reviewing who. Software is very pricey for simple review platform.

Avantages

Allows each user to input items to discuss during meetings and helps set an overall agenda. Easy to use and track what items have been resolved and what still needs to be addressed

Inconvénients

I do not use all of Lattice's capabilities and only have learned a small portion of the product. The team could be better about enhancing knowledge of the product.

Avantages

We really liked the integration with Slack and its ability to share and receive feedback in real time.

Inconvénients

When the product was used on the regular basis it was very helpful however when it doesn't get used for extended periods of time it isn't as beneficial.

Avantages

In a couple hours it's easy to get Lattice set up for a small-medium business and implement an evaluation process. Drag and drop questions or write your own to set up. Define the schedule of events. Launch.

Lattice manages the whole process, sends reminders to complete writing feedback, and enforces deadlines through cycle completion.

1on1 meeting notes and dialogue is great. We have yet to get deep into 360 reviews and day-to-day peer feedback.

Very easy. Our employees love it. We finally have evaluations that are a useful management tool and ongoing dialogue.

Our managers use Lattice to guide 1 on 1 meetings

Inconvénients

No complaints thus far. There are some things to learn along the way but overall it's simple and effective.

Avantages

I like how easy it is to give and receive feedback.

Inconvénients

I wish their SSO kept me signed in for a longer period of time.

Avantages

We recently implemented this OKR software and it is amazing. We used to keep objectives and goals in a bunch of Google sheets which was inconvenient. This software consolidates all OKRs in one place. Super easy to use and see the progress which is automatically calculated.

Inconvénients

No cons yet as we recently implemented the software but there is some work that needs to be done around certain features. For example, progress won't be calculated if you don't select the right type of data and also it is up to you to decide the progress status which can be misleading because the software doesn't have thresholds (e.g. no set rules for 50% or 70% progress which can make a difference).

Avantages

Lattice allows you to give updates on your progress and bring up anything of concern to your employer. I also enjoy doing the anonymous pulse surveys.

Inconvénients

There were some times that the update emails weren't sent out.

Avantages

I like the easy to use UX design and ability to have reviews come through anonymously from coworkers and peers in order to improve in my job

Inconvénients

I wish that there were ways to integrate with performance reviews more than just once a year

Avantages

It is very intuitive and interesting tool with lots of features to engage employees and get to know people within organization

Inconvénients

Employee engagement software works well to fit in an organization’s culture but a lot more clicks for a user
