Where Ohana wins
Daily wellbeing, not quarterly reviews
Lattice is built around performance cycles that happen 2–4 times per year. Ohana operates every day — recognition flows in real time, AI coaching is available 24/7, and pulse is continuous.
Rewards that close the motivation loop
Lattice tracks performance but doesn't reward it with anything tangible. Ohana's points system means employees accumulate real value — redeemable at the places they actually use.
Fraction of the cost for growing teams
Lattice's pricing scales steeply for full-suite access. Ohana's free plan covers recognition and pulse for small teams, with affordable paid tiers as you grow.
