Credit where it's due

What Lattice does well.

Lattice has built one of the most comprehensive people management platforms on the market. Its performance review cycles are well-structured and widely adopted — supporting 360-degree feedback, calibration, and continuous performance tracking across large organisations. For companies that need structured, enterprise-scale performance review infrastructure, Lattice is a proven choice.

Lattice’s engagement surveys and eNPS tools give People teams real-time visibility into employee sentiment. The platform’s ability to correlate engagement data with performance data is a genuine differentiator for organisations looking to understand the relationship between how employees feel and how they perform.

Lattice has also expanded into compensation management — allowing People teams to run compensation cycles, manage pay bands, and link pay to performance within a single system. Combined with its manager effectiveness tools and 1:1 meeting structure, Lattice offers a unified people management suite that many large organisations depend on.

The difference

What Goalite does differently.

The execution gap

Lattice helps organisations review and measure performance. Goalite helps organisations change it. The daily habit engine, AI goal cascade, and Microsoft 365 integration are built for execution — not for reporting. OKRs in Goalite are not a quarterly artefact. They drive every employee’s daily priorities, nudged by AI and tracked in real time.

Microsoft 365-native

Goalite lives inside Teams. Lattice does not. For organisations already committed to Microsoft 365, this eliminates the adoption risk that kills most software rollouts. Employees access their goal dashboard, daily habits, and AI nudges directly within Teams and Outlook — no new login, no new platform.

Mid-market accessible

Lattice’s pricing is designed for enterprise scale. Goalite’s pilot programme and Teams tier are accessible to mid-market organisations (50–2,000 employees) without enterprise procurement complexity. No multi-year lock-in. No requirement to buy modules you don’t need.

Is Goalite right for you?

Choose Goalite if…

  • You need goals to drive daily individual behaviour, not just appear in a dashboard
  • Your organisation uses Microsoft 365 and Teams
  • You want AI to build and adapt plans automatically
  • You are looking for a mid-market solution without multi-year lock-in
  • You want to close the gap between OKR strategy and individual action
