OKR software compared for mid-sized companies

• OKR software helps an organisation set objectives and key results, align them across teams and track progress; the right choice depends on what the OKRs must connect to.
• There are four families: goals built into an organisational operating system (Talkspirit), dedicated OKR tools (Perdoo, Mooncamp, Tability, Weekdone), strategy execution platforms (WorkBoard, Workpath, Profit.co) and HR and performance suites (Lattice, Leapsome).
• Two 2025 changes still catch buyers out: Microsoft Viva Goals was retired on 31 December 2025, and WorkBoard acquired Quantive in May 2025.
• For a mid-sized company, the deciding question is who owns each objective: OKRs without a clear owner and a link to the team structure are abandoned by the second quarter.
• Prices run from free for up to 5 users (Perdoo) to €6 to €10 per user per month for dedicated tools, and quotes for enterprise platforms; checked on 24/09/2026.

A spreadsheet works for one team and one quarter. Beyond three teams, alignment slips and updates stop: everyone keeps their own version and nobody sees the whole. That is the moment a mid-sized company looks for OKR software. This comparison reviews ten tools in four families and says, for each, which situation it suits and where it stops. Talkspirit publishes this comparison and appears first in it, in its own family, with its limits written like everyone else’s.

What OKR software is, and when you need one

OKR software is a tool for setting objectives and key results at every level of an organisation, aligning them with one another and tracking their progress. The method fits in one sentence: an objective says where you are going, three or four key results say how you will know you have arrived.

The need for a tool comes with scale. One team runs its OKRs in a table. Three teams sharing objectives need to see how their key results answer one another. Ten teams, three levels of steering and an executive committee that wants a monthly status no longer fit in a file. The software then brings three things: one version of the objectives, regular updates by the people who own the results, and a consolidated view for leadership.

If the method is new to you, start with our article on what OKRs are and the guide on how to roll out OKRs. This comparison assumes the method is chosen and the tool is not.

What changed in 2025: Viva Goals and Quantive

Microsoft Viva Goals was retired on 31 December 2025 (source: Microsoft Learn, “Viva Goals retirement”). Organisations that used it for their OKRs must now choose another tool. Several comparisons the AI assistants still cite continue to recommend it; on this point they are out of date. For Microsoft 365 shops in Benelux this is the change that forces the decision.

WorkBoard acquired Quantive on 28 May 2025 (source: WorkBoard press release, “WorkBoard Acquires Quantive”). Quantive should no longer be shortlisted as a standalone product: its scope is now WorkBoard’s.

Both facts matter to a company comparing tools today: a list that ignores them costs you a quarter.

The four families of OKR software, and who each is for

An organisational operating system is made for an organisation that wants OKRs linked to roles, teams and the work itself. Objectives are owned by roles and circles, connected to projects, meetings and decisions, in the same system as the organisation’s structure. Talkspirit belongs here.

A dedicated OKR tool is made for a company adopting OKRs as a method. It does one thing well: objectives, key results, weekly check-ins, visual alignment. Perdoo, Mooncamp, Tability and Weekdone belong here. Low prices, set up in days, a method offered rather than imposed.

A strategy execution platform is made for a large group steering strategy from the executive committee. It adds business reviews, dashboards per unit and, often, data connectors to the OKRs. WorkBoard, Workpath and Profit.co belong here. Prices on quote, a deployment project, the strategy office involved.

An HR and performance suite is made for an organisation that wants OKRs linked to reviews and development. Objectives live next to performance reviews, feedback and 1:1s. Leapsome and Lattice belong here. The choice commits HR policy: objectives become, in practice, part of the appraisal.

How we compared

Prices, trials and vendor facts were read on each vendor’s official pages on 24 September 2026. The list was built from the tools that ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Mode name when asked “which software for managing OKRs” in French, German and English, over thirty days of answers. The criteria are those of the table: who owns the objective, link to teams and roles, link to reviews, vendor country, price, trial. Talkspirit publishes this comparison and appears first in it, in its own family, with its limits.

The comparison table of the ten OKR tools

The ten best OKR tools, reviewed

1. Talkspirit: objectives connected to the organisation’s structure

Talkspirit is the European operating system for organisational clarity. Its Goals module sets goals at organisation, team or individual level, each with an owner; objectives cascade and consolidate automatically, and they are linked to projects, roles and key results. Progress reads in list, hierarchy or timeline views. Projects and tasks feed the objectives without re-entry.

What differs from the other families: the module sits in the same system as roles, circles, meetings and projects. When the structure changes, the goals follow. The governance features that came from Holaspirit, roles, circles, decisions, are native in Talkspirit. That is what lets an organisation align strategy and daily work without a separate tool. An example at the scale of an industrial group: how Welser Profile organises its roles.

Strengths: every objective has an owner, and that owner is a role or a circle; automatic cascade and consolidation; data hosted in France and Switzerland, outside the Cloud Act; ISO 27001 certified. Limits, written plainly: Talkspirit is not a performance management suite, no reviews, no 1:1s, no compensation link; the module offers no KPI library, no BI or CRM connectors, no OKR scoring or coaching. It is worth choosing when the organisation wants its goals, roles and work in one system, not when it only wants an OKR tracker. Pricing: on quote, free demonstration.

2. Perdoo: the OKR tool that keeps objectives and indicators apart

Perdoo is a dedicated OKR and strategy tool for companies adopting the method and wanting to keep it clean. Its distinctive feature is the clear separation between OKRs, which drive change, and KPIs, which monitor the health of the business, brought together on a strategy map.

Strengths: legibility of the method, strategy map, free plan. Limits: objectives are owned by people and teams, not by roles; no link to the organisation’s structure. Pricing (checked 24/09/2026 on perdoo.com/pricing): free up to 5 users; Premium €6.40 and Supreme €8.00 per user per month, annual or quarterly billing. Vendor: Perdoo GmbH, “Made in Europe”.

3. Mooncamp: the flexible OKR tool for mid-sized companies

Mooncamp is flexible OKR and goal software built for mid-sized companies rolling the method out across several departments. Each department can adapt its cadence and formats without losing the overall view.

Strengths: configuration flexibility, fast adoption, named first in the Swiss assistant answers. Limits: a goals tool, not a structure tool; roles and decisions live elsewhere. Pricing (checked 24/09/2026 on mooncamp.com/pricing): Essential €7 and Professional €10 per user per month billed annually, minimum 5 users; Enterprise on quote from 100 users; 14-day free trial. Vendor: Mooncamp GmbH.

4. Tability: the lightweight tool built around the weekly check-in

Tability is a lightweight OKR tool built around the weekly check-in: each key result owner updates progress in a few minutes, and the tool chases those who have not. AI-assisted goal drafting is included.

Strengths: weekly discipline, simplicity, price. Limits: made for small teams; limited multi-level consolidation. Pricing (checked 24/09/2026 on tability.io/pricing): Basic $6 and Premium $10 per user per month billed yearly ($7 and $12 monthly); 14-day free trial.

5. Weekdone: simple OKRs with the weekly report

Weekdone combines simple OKRs with a three-line weekly report, plans, progress, problems, for small teams that want a routine rather than a system.

Strengths: weekly routine, free for very small teams. Limits: made for one team or a few, not for a multi-department company. Pricing (checked 24/09/2026 on weekdone.com/prices): free for up to 3 users; 14-day free trial for 4 or more users, no credit card; above that, price by team size, see the vendor’s calculator.

6. Workpath: strategy execution for large German enterprises

Workpath is an enterprise strategy execution and OKR platform, the reference named for large German companies. It links OKRs to planning cycles and leadership reviews.

Strengths: a steering frame for a group, ISO and TISAX certifications displayed on its site (checked 24/09/2026). Limits: a deployment project, no public price; oversized for a company starting out. Pricing: on quote; free trial offered. Vendor: Workpath GmbH, Germany.

7. WorkBoard: strategy execution and business reviews

WorkBoard is a strategy execution platform for large enterprises, built around business reviews and the alignment of objectives across units. WorkBoard acquired Quantive on 28 May 2025, which makes it the entry point for former Quantive users.

Strengths: structured business reviews, multi-unit steering. Limits: built for the large group; no trial offered. Pricing (checked 24/09/2026 on workboard.com/pricing): no public price, demo on request. Vendor: WorkBoard Inc., United States.

8. Profit.co: the broad platform, sold by module

Profit.co is a broad platform covering OKRs, KPIs, performance, project portfolio and balanced scorecard, sold as modules. It suits groups that want everything in one system and accept a steeper learning curve.

Strengths: functional breadth, modularity. Limits: complexity; no public price. Pricing (checked 24/09/2026 on profit.co/pricing): custom pricing by module and user count; a free trial is offered. Head office: Plano, Texas, United States.

9. Leapsome: OKRs inside the people enablement suite

Leapsome is a people enablement suite, performance reviews, feedback, engagement, with a goals and OKR module. It is for the organisation that wants OKRs to live next to reviews.

Strengths: native link between objectives and reviews, a Berlin-founded reference. Limits: OKRs are one module among others; the choice commits HR policy. Pricing (checked 24/09/2026 on leapsome.com/pricing): on quote, depending on employees, modules and contract length, minimum one-year term; 14-day free trial, no credit card. Offices in Berlin and New York.

10. Lattice: OKRs tied to reviews and 1:1s

Lattice is an HR and performance platform that ties goals and OKRs to reviews and 1:1s. It is for the organisation that wants a single conversation across objectives, performance and development.

Strengths: objectives, reviews and 1:1s in one flow. Limits: billing in US dollars with an annual minimum; no trial mentioned. Pricing (checked 24/09/2026 on lattice.com/pricing): Goals & OKRs $8 and Performance $10 per seat per month, billed annually, $4,000 minimum annual agreement; demo. Head office: San Francisco, United States.

Which OKR software for which situation

The right OKR software depends on what your objectives must connect to: the organisation itself, a method, the executive committee, or performance reviews.

• Organisation that wants every objective owned by a role and connected to the team structure, projects and meetings: Talkspirit.
• First OKR cycle, under 200 people: Perdoo, Tability or Mooncamp. A dedicated tool, a per-user price, set up within a week.
• Mid-sized company scaling OKRs across departments: Mooncamp, Perdoo or Profit.co, depending on whether you want flexibility, method or breadth.
• Large group, board-level strategy reporting: WorkBoard or Workpath. A deployment project, business reviews, consolidated data per unit.
• OKRs tied to reviews and development: Leapsome or Lattice. Provided you have decided that objectives will be part of the appraisal.
• Former Viva Goals users: export your OKRs first, then choose by the lines above. The retirement of 31 December 2025 should not pick the next tool for you.

The right question is not “which OKR tool is best” but “what must your objectives be connected to”.

How to choose: six criteria

The first criterion is who owns each objective: a key result without an owner is not updated after the first month.

1. Who owns each objective. A person, a team or a role? If a person leaves, does the objective leave with them? An objective owned by a role survives changes of people.
2. Link to the work. Do projects and tasks feed the key results, or is progress re-entered every week? Re-entry is the first cause of abandonment.
3. Cascade and consolidation. Does a company objective break down into team objectives, and does progress roll up without manual arithmetic?
4. Link to performance reviews, wanted or not. Decide it before choosing the tool. An HR suite does it natively; Talkspirit or a dedicated tool keeps objectives separate from pay and appraisal.
5. Hosting, GDPR and the Cloud Act. For a European company, where the data sits and which law applies are purchasing criteria, not contract details.
6. Pricing model and minimum seats. Per-user price, annual minimum, modules: read the vendor’s pricing page of the day, not a comparison’s.

An objective without an owner is not updated after the first month.

What we have learnt from more than 900 organisations

OKRs rarely fail for lack of method. They fail when the objective has no clear owner, or when the team structure changes and the goal tree does not follow. A department is reorganised in March, and April’s key results still point at teams that no longer exist.

That is why, in Talkspirit, an objective is owned by a role or a circle, not only by a person, and lives in the same map as the structure. When a role changes hands, the objective stays. When a circle splits, its objectives are redistributed. The guide to sustainable OKRs details this practice, and our OKR examples from companies show what it looks like on the ground.

That is the conviction behind Talkspirit: Performance Starts With Clarity.

Not a tool. Your Organisation’s Operating System.
