Performance management software for enterprise companies (2,000 people or more)

At 2,000 people or more, you can buy performance management inside an HR system or as a separate product. Workday, SAP SuccessFactors and ADP sell the first kind. Betterworks, Quantum Workplace, PeopleFluent and others sell the second. Below you will see which products have a customer of your size. You also get each product’s price and the contract questions to raise first.

HR system

The performance part of Workday, SAP SuccessFactors or ADP, if you already run that HR system. Ask that vendor for the performance price first.

Named customer

Betterworks · Quantum Workplace · emPerform · Trakstar · TalentGuard. Each has a customer with 2,000 employees or more.

Ask for proof

Culture Amp · Appraisd · PeopleFluent · Lattice · Leapsome · Confirm · Rippling · 15Five. Ask each for a customer with 2,000 employees or more, and for a call with that customer. Teamflect and Profit.co also sell Enterprise plans. Ask each for a performance customer of your size.

Watch

Workday does not offer termination for convenience. SAP SuccessFactors renews for 36 months in its sample order form. Lattice and Trakstar renew for the length of the first term.

What changes at 2,000 people and what stays the same

Products draw the size line in different places. Betterworks designs for mid-market and enterprise companies. emPerform suits 150 to 3,000. Ask for a customer at your headcount.

More managers means more ratings to compare. Calibration is a meeting where managers and HR compare ratings. They adjust them so every team is rated on one standard. One Betterworks client calibrated 570 people in about 40 sessions over three weeks. Ask each vendor how it handles your number of managers.

More countries means more languages. Workday can send a review for someone with positions in several countries to their home-country or host-country manager. Check the language list for every country you hire in.

More countries also means more places where data may sit. Get the list of regions in writing.

In these products a person approves the AI text. Workday keeps every draft with the manager until they approve it. The AI in Lattice and 15Five does not pick ratings. The AI in Leapsome never changes a rating on its own.

Customers of your size, product by product

The performance part of an HR system

Workday runs performance reviews inside its HR system. A review can run outside the normal review round, and ratings can feed pay. Workday customer Life Fitness has 3,500 employees. The share of its staff using the process rose from 29% to 78%. SAP SuccessFactors gives each review a route with set steps and roles, including a second-level manager and an HR representative. Standard Chartered rolled SAP SuccessFactors AI features out to 85,000 employees in three months. ADP Workforce Now is built for midsized and large businesses.

Products with a customer of 2,000 or more

Betterworks customers include Grupo Posadas, with more than 14,000 employees in Mexico. Another is Arcesium, with more than 2,500 staff in North America, Europe and Asia. Most Betterworks enterprise customers go live within weeks of the project start. Quantum Workplace customers include Valet Living with 6,700 employees, Hudl with more than 3,200 and Deltek with more than 3,000. Hudl reports a 99% completion rate in its annual talent reviews. emPerform counts RGIS among its customers. RGIS has more than 34,000 staff in over 40 countries. One annual fee covers every emPerform feature. Trakstar customer Bausch Health has 10,000+ employees. Heartland Dental, with more than 7,000 team members, chose TalentGuard for performance management in 2015.

Products to question first

Culture Amp has an enterprise tier for 1,000 or more employees. Culture Amp customer Tonkin + Taylor has 1,400 employees. Appraisd, now called Talos Perform, counts Aster Group among its customers. Aster Group has 1,001 to 5,000 employees. PeopleFluent sells to the mid-to-large enterprise market and to highly regulated industries. It sells two performance products, PeopleFluent Performance and Reflektive. One clinic client has PeopleFluent Performance available to around 3,500 people, and it is not named. Lattice sells an Enterprise plan by quote. Its Workday link supports companies of 1,000 or more. Leapsome counts Generali Switzerland among its customers, with about 1,300 employees. Confirm is built for companies of 100 to 10,000+ employees. Rippling customer LightForce has 500 to 999 employees. Ask these seven and 15Five for a customer with 2,000 employees or more. Ask for a call with that customer.

Two more with an enterprise plan

Teamflect has an Enterprise plan with its own separate cloud environment and a choice of regions on Microsoft’s Azure cloud. Securitas Services Europe ran a Teamflect pilot. Securitas Europe has 120,000 employees in 20 countries. Profit.co has an Enterprise plan with a record of who changed what and a 99.9% uptime promise. It also offers data residency, which means the region where data is kept. Intuitive Surgical, a Profit.co customer with 10,000+ employees, uses it for objectives and key results.

What each one costs at this size

Several products publish a list price. Betterworks prices Performance at $8 a user a month and Performance + Talent Intelligence at $9. The $9 package includes Anytime Calibration. Its Enterprise plan is a quote, and implementation is a one-time extra. Lattice prices Performance at $10 a user a month with a $4,000 minimum a year. 15Five prices Perform at $11 a user a month and Total Platform at $16. Leapsome prices Performance Reviews at €7 an employee a month.

Take 3,000 users for a year. That costs about $324,000 on the Betterworks $9 package and $360,000 on Lattice Performance. It costs $396,000 on 15Five Perform. Betterworks and Lattice quote their Enterprise plans separately, so ask for that figure.

Quantum Workplace packages start at $15,000, which is also its minimum yearly contract. It prices by total employees and charges no implementation fee. Appraisd works out £27,550 plus VAT, the UK sales tax, for 1,000 users for a year. That is on a minimum two-year contract. Above 1,000 employees it prices enterprise customers flexibly, so ask for a quote. Confirm charges from $13 a user a year on its frontline track for a 5,000-person company. A reseller sells SAP SuccessFactors Performance & Goals on the UK government’s buying marketplace. The rate falls with volume. It runs from £2.53 a user a month up to 2,000 users to £0.57 above 200,000 users. Ask for the rate in your band. The rates exclude VAT and do not include support.

Request Workday’s price for the performance features on their own. It charges for AI by the work done through Flex Credits, a pay-as-you-go allowance, not by headcount. It gives yearly complimentary Flex Credits based on company size. SAP SuccessFactors sells premium AI separately through an “AI units” licence. AI use above the yearly allowance needs that licence. ADP asks you to log in to see its price. Culture Amp, emPerform, TalentGuard, Rippling and Trakstar price by quote.

Check the extras. Appraisd charges £2,000 to start each extra language, and PeopleFluent charges extra for language support in Reflektive. Culture Amp may charge more if your users pass the tier you bought. PeopleFluent bills use above your ordered quantity in blocks of at least 10%.

Where large rollouts go wrong

Long terms that renew on their own

Workday does not offer termination for convenience. Its model is a multi-year agreement. Under Workday’s agreement, order forms cannot be cancelled, apart from set exceptions. SAP SuccessFactors renews for 36-month terms by default in its sample order form. You give one month’s notice and SAP gives six. Lattice and Trakstar renew for the length of the first term. Appraisd sells a minimum two-year contract and needs 90 days’ notice. Record each notice deadline on the day you sign.

Price rises and user counts that only go up

On the UK government’s buying marketplace, a reseller of SAP SuccessFactors raises prices 3.3% on each contract anniversary. Lattice caps a rise at 5% above list price. Leapsome allows up to 5% with 90 days’ notice. Betterworks can raise renewal fees with 120 days’ notice. Leapsome licence counts and 15Five seats cannot fall during the term. Lattice does not refund a user when your headcount drops after growth. Its user count also includes people you only invited.

Data terms that may not change

Lattice treats its data contract as not negotiable. PeopleFluent answers no when asked to sign a client’s own data contract, because its own is tailored to its services. Quantum Workplace takes a perpetual licence to use, disclose, store and modify customer data to run and improve its service. Culture Amp may use de-identified data to improve its products and build benchmarks. Read these terms before the demo.

Staff bodies and AI laws

Under the EU AI Act, AI that monitors and evaluates people’s work performance is high-risk, unless an exemption applies. A system can be exempt if it does not materially influence decisions. An employer must tell workers and their representatives before using a high-risk system. The rules for these systems apply from 2 December 2027. Culture Amp counts its AI features as not high-risk. They are not meant for promotion, termination or performance evaluation. In Germany the works council is the elected staff body. It has a joint say over systems that monitor performance and over appraisal principles. Dutch works councils must consent to appraisal schemes, and any company with 50 or more staff needs one. French law requires the staff committee to be informed before automated personnel-management processing starts. Lattice makes the customer solely responsible for AI notices and human oversight.

Who switches the AI on

Betterworks keeps all AI features off until an administrator turns them on. Workday keeps its AI agents off until an administrator activates them. 15Five sets AI on by default for new review rounds from 17 September 2026. Culture Amp’s AI Coach is on for everyone by default. Leapsome’s AI is on by default for new customers and can be switched off in whole or in part. Decide who owns each setting before the first review round.

Taking your data out

Culture Amp offers no bulk export of an account. Exports go feature by feature, and 1-on-1 notes are visible only to their owner and must be exported by hand. Workday gives up to 60 days of limited access to retrieve content. SAP SuccessFactors leaves the extraction to you, and help from SAP or a partner costs extra. Lattice deletes your data 180 days after the contract ends. Betterworks deletes within 30 days, and Trakstar may delete after 30 days.
