Why teams look at 15Five alternatives
Six things that come up when Microsoft 365 teams put 15Five through an evaluation.
Pay twice for one platform
With 15Five, surveys sit in Engage, reviews and OKRs in Perform. Running both means Total Platform at $16 per user monthly.
Your team still leaves Teams
15Five's Teams integration only covers the High Fives feed. Reviews, check-ins, OKRs and 1-on-1s live in a separate web app.
Customize surveys, lose reporting
The engagement score, driver analysis and heatmaps come from 15Five's pre-built surveys. Write your own and you lose all three.
Mostly manual goal progress updates
15Five only auto-updates key results from Jira and Salesforce. Numbers in Power BI, Excel or anywhere else get updated by hand.
Annual contracts, no free plan
15Five is billed annually, with no free plan for a small team to start on and grow into. Budgeting happens up front, all year.
The add-ons keep adding up
Compensation runs $9 to $11 per user monthly, Kona's assistant adds $2, coaching is $19 per manager, manager content starts at $49.
