Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Motivosity
- Pricing is custom, with no published per-employee rate
- Small business plans carry a minimum spend of $3,000 a year, so a small team pays that floor whatever its headcount
- Sold as eleven separate modules, so recognition, wellness, surveys and rewards are each priced on top of the platform
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
