The short version

  • They diverge on capability: Lattice covers Performance reviews, Qualtrics EmployeeXM covers Engagement surveys.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Lattice

  • A $4,000 minimum annual agreement applies, so the per seat prices only describe the cost above that floor
  • Billing is annual only
  • The platform is sold as three separate base products at $10, $8 and $4 per seat per month, so a full deployment stacks rather than being one price
  • Compensation and Grow are further add ons at $6 and $4 per seat per month on top

Qualtrics EmployeeXM

  • Pricing is not published for either the People Engage or People Lifecycle products; both require submitting a Request Pricing form to Qualtrics
  • Pricing is based on employee count rather than a flat platform fee, so cost scales with organization size
