Culture Amp vs Gallup Access

Culture Amp is an employee experience platform for employee engagement, performance management, and employee development. Engage includes survey templates, pulse, onboarding, and offboarding surveys, benchmarking, AI comment summaries, and action plans. Perform covers continuous feedback, performance reviews and calibration, one-on-one conversations, development plans, goals, and performance insights. AI Coach is included in every plan and provides insights, guidance, and tailored action plans within Engage and Perform. Integrations include HRIS systems, Pave for compensation, Slack and Microsoft Teams for flow-of-work features, and LifeLabs Learning and Go1 for learning resources. A Developer API connects people data to other systems and supports bespoke analysis. Culture Amp says it encrypts data at rest and in transit and uses AWS and Google Cloud Platform infrastructure. All products are billed annually; pricing depends on employee count, product, and service tier, and is available on request. Every customer has 24/5 chat and email support, training resources, and support guides. Founded in 2011, Culture Amp is headquartered in Melbourne, Australia.

Gallup Access is organizational software for leaders, managers, and HR professionals working to identify workplace performance issues and improve engagement, culture, and results. It is available on Android, iOS, and the web. Survey options include the Q12 engagement survey, employee experience surveys, unlimited pulse surveys, more than 350 validated questions, and custom items. Analytics include heatmaps, text analytics, benchmarking, response tracking, and one-click presentations. Managers can make engagement action plans, set goals, and follow progress over time. CliftonStrengths tools include results, team grids, reports, and AI-generated insights about collaboration opportunities and possible friction points. Gallup AI offers answers and recommendations using Gallup-owned content. Learning ranges from microlearning to longer paths aligned with survey results and goals. A free account includes strengths and engagement content such as articles, videos, advice, and learning modules, though feature access depends on assigned account roles. Gallup describes HRIS-powered data synchronization but does not name specific HRIS integrations. It says its cloud infrastructure uses role-based access and its AI applications are housed in a secure AWS environment. Subscription options are provided through Gallup's Business Development team; pricing is on request.
