Factorial
I am not fully convinced about factorial HR yet. We are about to transition to a new tool after using Recruitee for a long time. The bar was high when it came to recruitment ATS. and Factorial HR is multifaceted but not as well structured or functional. Support in other languages should also be improved, as those are the most common reviews I have seen online.

Lattice
- Lattice is important infrastructure for orgs that are scaling quickly and need the ability to better administer talent and performance programs - Lattice saves HR teams soooo much time (from the AI agent who answers HR questions, to the automated onboarding and offboarding processes. - Lattice is not great for very small orgs that don't have growth plans. (Engagement surveys can't be anonymous if there are too few EEs, there is a minimum contract amount, and it's quite a lot of tool/system)

  • it is not intuitive how to find a past review you wrote for someone that doesn't directly report to you
  • Lattice app (for phone) is very limited in scope and doesn't have face ID
  • sales team can be misleading; need to really double check and push on important issues

It is an expensive platform and other platforms are coming to market with similar features at a fraction of the price.

Lattice
It is very user friendly and easy to navigate. The workflows make sense and I can easy find my reviews, feedback or performance information. I haven't had any issues with being confused or needing to read instructions on how to navigate the software, it was one of the more straightforward programs that I have worked with

Lattice Support is not that good. We have had to have calls with them in the past and their product team did not have a lot of knowledge about their product. I believe they are able to provide a much better level of service and that would increase my likelihood to work with them again.

Alternatives Considered
Factorial
I does not stack up very well. It's best feature is that it is a 360 HR platform, but it needs to evolve and improve. Recruitee and Teamtailor seem way better options, in my opinion, for the Applicant tracking system. Time off tends to get confusing at times, and employees prefer tools like bamboo or Roots, which integrate well with other tools.

Lattice is more fully featured than BambooHR on the performance management functionality. It allows greater customization and more capabilities. If your company is mid-sized or large, Lattice is the way to go. However, it does require having some staff dedicated to understanding the system and committed to managing it. TINYpulse was also an interesting offering with some benefits, but also not as fully featured as Lattice for a medium to large business.

Return on Investment
Factorial
  • It has not had any impact. we are testing the tool for a while now, but we do not think it will make it to the end of the process.
  • It seems good for ATS but all other functionalities seemed to have been left behind.
  • I like that it allows managing posts and other things like internal social media and communities.

Lattice
  • We have a workforce of 700, who largely have never had a performance review - since buying the module, it is holding the managers accountable to the process - no employee needs to be in the dark with how they're doing
  • The employees value the decreased time that it takes to perform their self-assessments - world's apart from the complicated system we had before in our HRIS provider.
  • The managers value the decreased time it takes to initiate/complete the employee review discussion process, as they now have a much more streamlined manner of doing so since partnering with Lattice
