Why teams look at Betterworks alternatives

Six things that come up when Microsoft 365 teams put Betterworks through an evaluation.

Your team still leaves Microsoft 365

The Betterworks Teams app is a simple plugin for goals, feedback and recognition inside chats and channels. Reviews, 1-on-1s, surveys and calibration still require a separate web app.

A second vendor for IT to review

Betterworks runs its own sign-in through Okta, OneLogin, PingOne, ADFS or Google OAuth. That is a separate security review and a separate identity to keep in sync.

Priced for 500 people and up

Betterworks' own pricing FAQ says it adds the most value for companies with over 500 employees. Smaller teams end up paying for an enterprise setup they don't need yet. Teamflect works for companies of any size.

Implementation is a separate invoice

Their pricing FAQ states it plainly: implementation is a one-time cost in addition to the per-user price. Teamflect offers free implementation and training support.

Engagement sits outside the packages

Neither the $8 nor the $9 package includes surveys. Engage comes with the Enterprise tier or as its own purchase.

No way to try Betterworks first

Betterworks has no free plan and no self-serve trial, so every Get Started button leads to a sales call. With Teamflect, you can start free for up to 10 users or try Professional for 30 days.
