Lattice vs. SuccessFactors

Lattice is a popular human resources platform designed to streamline people management, with a focus on performance management and employee engagement. Lattice's primary objective is to improve the way companies manage, measure, and motivate their workforce. It provides a suite of tools that facilitate ongoing communication between employees and managers, helping organizations build a feedback-rich culture.

Lattice was founded in 2015 by Jack Altman and Eric Koslow. The duo recognized a gap in the HR software market. While many tools existed for administrative HR tasks (like payroll and benefits), they felt there was a need for a tool that addressed the "people strategy" side of HR, which included performance management, feedback, and employee development.

SuccessFactors is a cloud-based human capital management (HCM) solution developed by SuccessFactors Inc., which was later acquired by SAP SE in 2012. It is designed to help businesses of all sizes with a comprehensive suite of tools for managing various HR functions.

SuccessFactors was founded by Lars Dalgaard. The company initially focused on helping organizations create and track employee performance reviews. Over the years, SuccessFactors expanded its product line to cover a wider range of human capital management (HCM) functions, including learning and development, recruiting, compensation, and workforce analytics.
