Considered Both Products
Lattice
Chose Lattice
because it simplifies the process of review and build a transparency.
Chose Lattice
Lattice is much user friendly and having easy integration then any other app. Lattice is smoth and having wide range of tagging features. It is easy to install and integrete with other apps. User friendly and really a great tool for performance management.
Chose Lattice
These other platforms are great at their own thing- like payroll for the most part, but some don't have native performance tools at all (ADP), and some are just so shallow and designed to just check the must-have boxes for orgs primarily focused on Payroll. Gusto and …
Chose Lattice
Lattice is not as good as these tools. We originally used it to integrate 1:1s with OKR tracking, but that's no longer the case. A lot of the benefits of using Lattice don't matter anymore, now that we're not tracking OKRs in it. We've moved our OKR tracking to Google Sheets
Chose Lattice
Lattice is easier to use and more visually appealing
Chose Lattice
I have not really used any other goal/performance review software similar to Lattice. So this is a first for me. We have used ADP Workforce Now to provide our organization chart, and I feel like the organization chart utilized in Lattice is cleaner and less clunky than it was …
Chose Lattice
Some similar functionality though the core functions are different. BambooHR is predominantly HR software but does have areas to manage goals as well as conversations with managers. I believe tracking goals is a bit better in Lattice and is more comprehensive but not quite as …
Chose Lattice
This was our previous system, and while it was highly customizable, the administration fell heavily on our central support team. There were also some easy of use issues (not the most UX friendly). Lattice solved both of those issues, plus added ongoing feedback mechanism that …
Chose Lattice
All-in-one performance platform for engagement, goals, reviews, 1:1, department information, feedback, growth plans, and a robust management system and smart workflows, and a great tool for remote-first companies and seamless integrations with Slack, calendars, and each tool in …
Chose Lattice
Even though ClickUp is mainly an HR platform, it can be used for a variety of purposes. The features are just right and it is straightforward and simple to use. Many of these platforms tend to add many features, which end up causing an overwhelming feeling but it has been …
Chose Lattice
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 …
Chose Lattice
Lattice outperforms PeopleHR for a people development system, we continue to use PeopleHR for the HR functionality of the system but rather than having everyone upload their document with no real tracking on is one of the main reasons we have chosen to adopt Lattice. Lattice is …
Chose Lattice
At the time lattice allowed us to move off these two systems and use a single service. Both GTMhub and officeVibe were better tools but having a single sorce of trueth for our employees was more important. Since then officeVibe has caught up to Lattice and I can see it being a …
Chose Lattice
I don't remember the name of the specific product that I used previously, however, Lattice is the best performance tracker that I've used in comparison to the tools used at my previous jobs - some of which were more manual created a heavier lift for the user.
Chose Lattice
This is the first of its kind and so far from my experience, I am happy with it.
Chose Lattice
They are both effective, but Lattice is more user friendly and efficient.
Chose Lattice
Way better and geared towards what we needed.
Chose Lattice
To be honest, Lattice has been the only commercially known performance tracking tool that we've used. But I love it so far.
Chose Lattice
Lattice was the only platform we did a deep dive into. It was exactly what we were looking for and the reason we went with them is because of the public feedback module they have built-in as that was a really important aspect for us.
Chose Lattice
I haven't used another item similar to Lattice
Chose Lattice
Rippling also has an org chart feature, similar to Lattice. I feel as though Lattice's org chart is easier to read and break down by department.
Chose Lattice
The above tools do different things than Lattice. Lattice is more of a review system and greenhouse is for hiring and slack is for communication. I think Lattice is better in communication as you are talking through the issues rather than someone reading them in a chat. …
Proliant
Chose Proliant
As far as functionality and performance under the standard, but pricing, they are the best!
Chose Proliant
Proliant is way above Quickbooks!

For years Quickbooks fumbled and messed up so many things for my business and every time I would try to resolve them I would receive conflicting solutions from the Quickbooks representatives whom spoke very little English.
Chose Proliant
I actually like Proliant better! I have been highly impressed with the software, the usability and particularly the client service.
Chose Proliant
I don't remember who else we looked at, but Proliant was the easiest to use and at a similar cost.
Chose Proliant
Proliant is much more user-friendly than the alternatives we've considered
Chose Proliant
The system as a whole is very similar in a lot of ways to what we demoed with Paycom and what we used with ADP. I would say that payroll is significantly simpler with Proliant than it was with ADP. Having a designated account manager and point of contact was a main selling …
Chose Proliant
I think Proliant provides the best customer service out of any platform I have used. There are, however, some areas where there could be improvement. It is difficult to enter Holidays, and the add or remove PTO. The ease of connection with the Benefits Portal is a plus as well …
Chose Proliant
We liked the Proliant site and app better than Asure, it is more reliable and much easier to navigate.
Chose Proliant
Paycom, Paylocity and Toast Payroll & Team Management
Chose Proliant
Proliant is incredibly easy to use and has the most available integrations compared to others I have used. Additionally, Proliant has great customer service and I am always able to connect with a live person with minimal delay.
Chose Proliant
We went a completely different direction with Proliant, so it isn't comparable.
Chose Proliant
Proliant seemed to be a better interface, but I think we were wrong.
Chose Proliant
We chose Proliant due to local customer service and pricing.
Chose Proliant
Proliant is outstanding in comparison to TimeClock Plus, Timeclock Plus was terrible when it came to reports, integrations. Not user-friendly at all, too many manual processes, not able to process the entire payroll, just a timekeeping tool basically.
Chose Proliant
Proliant is the only payroll software I have used, and I don't plan on changing that anytime soon. It gives me everything I need in simple, easy-to-use software. If I have questions they have quality customer service. I get calls weekly to change to other payroll services, …

Likelihood to Recommend
Lattice is very well versed in all things with performance and goals, but it is a separate program from the rest I work in; it would be nice to be able to integrate it into other programs I work out of more frequently. I do enjoy being able to have a program where I can track my goals and job growth.

I recommend Proliant based on the customizable aspects and customer service of the team. Their teams are incredibly easy to work with and the system is on par with even the most expensive payroll and HRIS systems on the market. I highly recommend Proliant for fellow restaurant industry colleagues for ease of use and price point.

Pros
  • 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.

  • Some of the help for the training modules, [...] has been fantastic
  • [...] has also been really helpful
  • Adding a new employee to the system has been relatively easy and simple to do

Cons
  • 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

  • I cannot get RPO to be changed to how it needs to be for our business needs (when T&L employees move to salaried, for example). I have had several meetings regarding this and it still is not fixed -- more than a year later
  • Slow response from employee.helpdesk@proliant.com often leads me to send messages to payroll administrator for response
  • I believe we are paying for some added services; I do not know what these services are and I've asked on several occasions to have someone contact me about this.

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

Usability
because it has positive impact on both employee and business. It streamlined performance review , made feedback more consistent and improved visibility and it helped a lot in setting up specific reminders for tasks and recognition.it also build transparency in setting up reviews and feedbacks. its easy to use and integrate.

Proliant is pretty easy to maneuver and get used to. There are some things than can be tedious but nothing too difficult where you have to spend hours to get it to work. The payroll processing is pretty straightforward and that's the core reason why we use their software.

Support Rating
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
These other platforms are great at their own thing- like payroll for the most part, but some don't have native performance tools at all (ADP), and some are just so shallow and designed to just check the must-have boxes for orgs primarily focused on Payroll. Gusto and TriNet/Zenefits try to be all-in-one solutions, but their foundations are payroll and HRIS, respectively, so their performance and engagement tools are either missing or severely lacking

The system as a whole is very similar in a lot of ways to what we demoed with Paycom and what we used with ADP. I would say that payroll is significantly simpler with Proliant than it was with ADP. Having a designated account manager and point of contact was a main selling point for us with choosing Proliant over our other options and while that has proved to be an asset, we do wish there was a general customer support line for quick questions like we had with ADP.

Return on Investment
  • a different method to reaching the whole company that isn't through email or slack, not cluttering peoples inbox but having a dedicated space for praises and goal planning
  • where company data about personnel is stored and a way to engage with them and set up cadences for meeting and feedback, giving us a one stop shop instead of multiple avenues
  • a forum where we do all company surveys. from engagement surveys to mid-year reviews. makes this process streamlined and less fussy and confusing
Read full review
  • The payroll clerk is able to pre-process payruns so that she doesn't need a backup on days she is out of the office
  • Have eliminated an internal need for someone to handle payroll tax and compliance filings
  • EDI feeds with benefits providers have elminated the need to manually update benefits providers with each employee change
