Guusto vs. Lattice

We held a balcony decorating contest and residents were rewarded with the ability to quickly and easily select the gift card that best suited their needs. I was awarded a gift card for performance at work and was to access the reward quickly. In both cases, it was easy and seamless for both sender and receiver.

Lattice works very well for our two primary purposes: Performance Management and Employee Satisfaction. On the employee satisfaction surveys, we are able to capture comments as well as quantitative ratings. We are able to maintain anonymity for respondents and cut the data based on several descriptors. Lattice was a bit overbuilt for small companies. There were many features built in that we did not use. Lattice has a virtual suggestion box feature but it actually only generated an email window for the user. I would have preferred the suggestions to be sent within the system and maintained in the system rather than externally via email

• Wide Variety of options on which to use the allotted gift card.

• Giving me up to date information and tasks that enable me to complete necessary training experiences.
• Giving me a user friendly interface/platform that allows me to communicate with coworkers, supervisor, etc.
• It notifies me when I have things to do, and when I have completed necessary tasks.
• It gives me a bank of completed tasks so that I can chronologically follow my progress over time as I have been with my organization.

• Research demographics on variety of stores.
• I am in a very remote location most of the shops are an hour away.
• Gas cars would be amazing.
• Visa option would be great.

• The interface is a little bit difficult to navigate. I think the home page could be more streamlined.
• There is no way to check off or complete goals. It just reminds you forever until you delete them. There should be a way to have a list of completed goals.
• The org chart could be clearer, although it's possible that it's just how my company is doing it.

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

Smart workflows like performance reviews, feedback and goal setting and 1:1 are simple to schedule and add points to discuss, and growth plans and giving and requesting feedback is very easy, and company-wide praise section and good integration with Slack which is really helpful for timely reminders and other stuff like praise. And can't stop talking about public praise — it's one of the best features in Lattice, very engaging and feels very good when someone praises — company-wide gets a message in Slack #praise channel.

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.

Ease of setup and use is the first and foremost thing that appealed to us to use Guusto. Employees had to sign up for Guusto which was a smooth process. Then the wide variety of Gift card selections played another key role in choosing Guusto over the other vendor. Smooth transitioning and setting up with our organization are the key benefits which helped us choose Guusto.

We previously used ADP's Performance Mgmt module and found it to not meet any of our needs. In the fall of 2020, I sourced/contacted three vendors - Lattice, Goal Span & Performance Culture & had demos of their offerings. Lattice checked all of the boxes we were seeking; implementation was fast & we were able to kickoff our first review the end of November as we normally do - what a huge positive difference we immediately saw!!

• You can charge up your account for future use which is very handy, but if you're charging from a credit card, you'll want to load over $500 to avoid fees.

• The clear ownership of individual goals probably had a positive impact on ROI
• As this is a people management software, it is hard to gauge the raw amount of impact it had on ROI. But it did foster a sense of community which I'm sure has a positive impact on ROI.
• Being able to align company, departmental, and individual goals all together has a positive impact on ROI.
