Lattice and Leapsome represent two different approaches to performance management, with Lattice focusing on user-friendliness and intuitive design, while Leapsome emphasizes customization and technical depth. Lattice is better suited for organizations prioritizing quick adoption and ease of use, with its superior 1:1 functionality and straightforward OKR implementation. Leapsome, on the other hand, is ideal for larger organizations with dedicated HR teams who can leverage its extensive integration capabilities and advanced scheduling features. Both platforms are comprehensive, but they serve different organizational needs based on technical resources and implementation preferences.

Stackfix Verdict | ||
---|---|---|
Functionality | 8 <p>Leapsome offers core performance management features like 1:1 meetings, feedback, reviews, surveys, and goal tracking—matching competitors Lattice and 15Five. While an optional learning module is available, the platform lacks performance improvement plans and has limited performance tracking capabilities. </p> | 9 <p>Lattice is a top-tier Performance Management platform that packs extensive features and AI tools throughout its system. While it excels in most areas, it lacks some quality-of-life features found in competing platforms - most notably, pre-built pulse surveys that are ready for immediate use.</p> |
Ease of Use | 7 <p>Leapsome provides regular users with a streamlined experience, offering clean interfaces and effective prompts for upcoming deadlines and tasks. This simplicity creates an intuitive environment for team members who aren't involved in administration.</p><p>For managers and administrators, however, the platform demands greater involvement. The extensive customization options introduce complexity through varied permissions, admin roles, and cycle ownership designations. Common elements like performance tracking dashboards require manual setup rather than being readily available. This added complexity makes Leapsome better suited for mid-market organizations with dedicated HR personnel who can properly configure and maintain the system while maximizing its robust feature set.</p> | 8 <p>Lattice's consistent interface design helps users get up to speed quickly. The personalized landing page gives immediate access to tasks, goals, and key information. Once users master 1-2 modules, they can easily navigate the rest of the platform. A standout feature is the guided workflow that walks users through outstanding tasks via an information-rich yet well-designed interface. For administrators, expect a somewhat steeper learning curve due to the platform's extensive functionality.</p> |
Look and feel | 8 <p>Leapsome's interface features clear navigation and an informative landing page for all users. While the design is clean and customizable, some information is hard to find, requiring extra exploration to locate specific features.</p> | 9 <p>Lattice offers intuitive interfaces for both managers and end users. Managers and team members enjoy a professional, visually appealing platform with consistent design across all modules. HR executives and administrators benefit from a clean, comprehensive console that remains visually engaging even during long sessions. However, a few pages (like the Explorer and personal development sections) suffer from visual clutter and feel more complex than the rest of the platform.</p> |
Customisability | 7 <p>Leapsome provides marginally above-average customization capabilities. While it covers basic options like logo changes, its dashboard creation tools offer somewhat better functionality than competitors, including tile resizing and various data visualization options. However, these enhancements represent only modest improvements over standard industry offerings.</p> | 7 <p>Lattice provides standard visual customization options including logos and themes.</p><p>Where it truly excels is in its extensive data configuration capabilities, allowing administrators to load chosen datasets into an explorer tab for further analysis and visualisation.</p><p>Each feature page also includes multiple data views, complemented by the dedicated explorer for creating custom visualisations.</p><p>However, Lattice's customisation capabilities are somewhat limited when it comes to documents, forms, and surveys compared to some competitors like ThriveSparrow which offers extensive visual and structural changes to their review forms.</p> |
Ease of Setup | 8 <p>Leapsome offers one of the better setup experiences in its category, featuring excellent onboarding with a helpful sandbox mode containing dummy data to help users understand the platform's workflows. However, this sandbox has limitations—users cannot independently test creating reviews themselves.</p><p>The platform loses some points for navigation intuitiveness. Likely due to its high customizability, establishing processes like goals and review workflows requires more time than expected.</p><p>Regarding implementation timeframe, teams should plan for 1.5-2 days to fully configure the platform. Teams led by HR executives who can leverage the extensive customization options will trend toward the shorter end of this estimate.</p> | 8 <p>Lattice provides a smooth onboarding process with helpful guided walkthroughs and a well-designed trial account. The pre-populated sample data effectively demonstrates all platform functions and serves as a setup guide. During testing, we had accounts running and surveys deployed within a day—suggesting most organizations could be operational just as quickly. One area for improvement is Lattice's integration capabilities, which are only slightly above average and might limit data importing options.</p> |
Customer Support | 7 <p>Leapsome features one of the better help systems in its category, with an accessible chat bubble that provides both an AI chatbot and various support resources directly from the main interface.While the bot doesn't always provide perfectly matched answers, it smoothly transitions complex inquiries to human support via email follow-up.</p><p>In our testing, we got a follow up response to our request for a human answer after 45 minutes.</p><p>The platform's help documentation also includes convenient 15-minute support calls that users can schedule through Calendly during business hours.</p> | 5 <p>We found Lattice's chat support bot to be easily accessible with a single click. However, its effectiveness is limited by one significant drawback: conversations don't persist when users navigate between pages, forcing them to restart their support queries with each page change.</p> |
Integratability | 9 <p>Leapsome offers an extensive integration library, connecting with numerous HRIS platforms and management tools like Jira. While unlisted software still requires custom API integration, the platform's comprehensive integration options greatly increase the chances of importing your employee data without complications.</p> | 6 <p>Whilst not the most extensive in the category, Lattice offers a decent suite of native integrations. These span your typical top HRIS platforms plus a few across ATS, communication, IAM, background checks, and benefits.</p><p>We would have liked to have seen some native integrations for project management software like Jira, having to instead rely on their API.</p> |
Ease of Migration | 5 <p><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">In testing, we found Leapsome to be largely in line with the average exportability features we see in the segment. We found the typical export functionalities of CSV and PDF within the reports, and some level of integrations with Slack amongst others to bring Leapsome's data beyond the software.</span></p> | 5 <p>Due to the limited number of native integrations, Lattice only connects and exports through the typical formats of PDF, CSV, and pushing to Slack amongst others.</p> |
