The short answer

  • Functionly : Org-design maps for restructures when operating-model design is the problem, not people analytics. From $24/seat/mo
  • Visier : Enterprise people analytics with benchmarks if you have already outgrown a $5 Core org graph. From Sales-quoted
  • Lattice : Performance, engagement, and HRIS in one suite when reviews, not org design, are the centre. From $4/seat/mo

Why people look past ChartHop

Modules are not a cheaper alternative to Core. You pay Core plus each module, billed annually, so a team that wants HRIS, planning, and compensation is looking at $5+$4+$4+$4 per employee per month, not $5. ChartHop AI Pro is pay-as-you-go on top.

What we noted

  • Modules stack on Core, so the bill compounds
  • AI Pro is pay-as-you-go on top of Core
  • No free plan or advertised free trial

Not the right fit for

  • Teams that only need a static PDF org chart
  • Buyers who want a free forever plan

Worth keeping in mind: Core is a real public number with the org chart, employee map, and Ask ChartHop included, then you stack Headcount Planning, Compensation, Performance, or Engagement at $3–$4/employee/mo instead of buying a full HCM.

What each one does differently

Functionly

$24/seat/mo 22 day free trial

Why it comes up: Org-design maps for restructures when operating-model design is the problem, not people analytics.

Stands out: A 22-day trial is printed on the pricing page, and annual Starter is $240/mo for 10 seats, which is $24 per seat per month.

Watch out: Annual plans require 10 user seats. Monthly extra seats are $48/seat/mo, so the cheap $24 figure is the annual toggle, not month-to-month.

Best for

  • Leaders drawing current and future org charts with compensation hidden behind access control
  • Teams running vacancy and headcount plans in the same canvas
  • Consultants who want the partner plan to spin client workspaces

Visier

Sales-quoted MCP API

Why it comes up: Enterprise people analytics with benchmarks if you have already outgrown a $5 Core org graph.

Stands out: Vee and the MCP server. Most analytics vendors give you dashboards; Visier gives every leader an agent that answers a workforce question in Slack, Teams or Copilot, and lets your own Claude or ChatGPT agents query the same governed data over MCP with each person's permissions intact. Sixteen years of benchmark data tell you whether your turnover or time to fill is normal.

Watch out: No public pricing and no free trial: this is a sales-led enterprise purchase, with independent estimates running well into five or six figures a year. It reads your HR systems rather than replacing them, so the value depends on how clean your HRIS and ATS data are, and answers reflect the last data load, not live records.

Best for

  • Enterprise HR and talent leaders who need one trusted picture of headcount, cost and attrition
  • People analytics teams that want to hand routine questions to an agent
  • HR and Finance teams planning headcount and org design from the same numbers

Lattice

$4/seat/mo MCP API

Why it comes up: Performance, engagement, and HRIS in one suite when reviews, not org design, are the centre.

Stands out: Review cycles, goals and surveys in one people-ops suite, with MCP in the assistant marketplaces.

Watch out: Pricing is modular, so the per-seat figure depends on which products you buy, and every contract is billed annually with a $4,000 minimum.

Best for

  • People-ops teams of roughly 50 to 500
  • Companies running review cycles
  • HR teams that want surveys next to goals
