THE DECISION IN BRIEF
Where should you focus the comparison?
If Lattice is on your shortlist, flexibility alone is too broad a deciding factor. Compare the exact sequence your organisation needs and the context each reviewer receives. New Dynamics is worth exploring when project relationships, different team rhythms and connected evidence are central to the process you want to run.
New Dynamics and Lattice, side by side

WHY NEW DYNAMICSA connected approach.
A connected approach.
Room to do it your way.
Your performance process should reflect how people contribute, who sees their work and what helps them grow. New Dynamics brings those connections into the same conversation.

Bring line managers, project leads and functional perspectives into the assessment. Define their roles, contribution weighting and permissions so responsibility stays clear.
Explore multi-manager reviewsContext that carries forward
Connect goals, feedback and recognition to the review, then turn the conversation into development. The next check-in should build on what you agreed.
Explore connected performanceA demo scenario for your Lattice comparison
A consultant has a functional manager and two project leads. One project ends before the annual review, while another changes scope midway through the year. Ask each supplier to capture the first lead’s evidence while it is fresh, retain the changed goal context and show the final manager what each contributor actually observed. Then change one reviewer’s access. This tests the relationship between evidence, ownership and permissions much more clearly than a standard review template.
Give both suppliers the same anonymised example and ask to see the employee, manager and HR administrator views. Record what happens inside the product, which steps require manual coordination and what needs additional configuration. Involve the people who will use the process, not only the team choosing the software.
Questions to ask before deciding
- How are project-lead contributions separated from the final assessment?
- Which goal, growth and AI capabilities are included in the proposed package?
- Can HR alter one team’s review stages without changing every team’s cycle?
A clear answer should identify the product, plan and configuration being demonstrated. Ask to see the result rather than accept a yes-or-no feature response. Capture any dependencies in the proposal, including the people who will maintain the configuration once the initial implementation is complete.
Plan implementation around adoption
Inventory current review templates, feedback history, growth frameworks and goal ownership. Decide which history needs to remain searchable and who should retain access after a reporting-line change. Pilot a single matrix team before moving the next review cycle.
Define a small number of useful success measures before the pilot: whether managers can find relevant evidence, whether employees understand their next development action and whether HR can handle a normal exception without a separate spreadsheet. Review the experience together and refine the process before extending it.
Compare the whole commitment
Subscription price is only part of the decision. Ask about configuration, migration, identity and HR connections, training, support and the effort required to keep the process current. Confirm data export, retention and access responsibilities with your IT and People teams. An existing HR system may continue to hold employee records even if you choose a dedicated performance platform.
For New Dynamics, bring those requirements into the discovery conversation. We can explore the stages, relationships and evidence your process needs and agree the scope for your organisation. Integration availability, migration work and commercial terms should be confirmed in writing.
Our editorial approach
Our competitor summary uses vendor-published product information. Reviewed on 18 September 2026. Evaluation scenarios and recommendations are New Dynamics’ analysis; this is a comparison published by a supplier, not an independent product test.
Capabilities can change and depend on your plan, region and configuration. Names and logos identify their respective owners and do not imply endorsement or affiliation. Read our comparison methodology or send corrections to contact@new-dynamics.com.
Your questions, answered.
Is New Dynamics an alternative to Lattice?
New Dynamics is an option to evaluate when your priority is connected performance management with configurable workflows and multi-manager perspectives. Lattice is also worth assessing against the same requirements. Compare the named product, package and employee journey rather than assuming the two proposals cover identical scope.
How should we compare New Dynamics and Lattice pricing?
Request proposals covering the same workforce, capabilities and services. Include implementation, historical data, integrations, training, ongoing support and renewal terms. There is no price or savings claim on this page: an accurate comparison requires the scope and commercial terms offered to your organisation.
Can we move from Lattice to New Dynamics?
Start with discovery and a representative pilot. Inventory current review templates, feedback history, growth frameworks and goal ownership. Decide which history needs to remain searchable and who should retain access after a reporting-line change. Pilot a single matrix team before moving the next review cycle. Migration feasibility, supported data, technical connections and delivery dates must be agreed with the team; this page does not promise an automatic migration.
Where do the competitor facts come from?
