Sift vs TeamGraph

Sift helps organizations find colleagues, map reporting relationships, and understand how work is distributed. Its searchable people directory filters profile data by skills, roles, and other information. An automatically updated org chart uses company people data to show formal and informal reporting lines. Profiles can include skills, experience, projects, interests, pronouns, name pronunciation, and languages. Sift aggregates employee data from multiple systems into one profile, using prebuilt identity connectors and SFTP workflows. Listed integrations include Workday, UKG, Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace, Okta, Ping Identity, CSV files, Microsoft Teams, and Slack. Access is available in browsers, Windows and Mac desktop downloads, and iOS and Android apps, as well as through an API. Sift says customer data is encrypted at rest and in transit, segmented between customers, and regularly tested by third parties for penetration vulnerabilities. It also says it completed a SOC 2 Type 2 audit and is GDPR compliant. Plans start at $150 a month, billed annually, for 20 users; a 14-day trial provides access to Sift Complete. Sift does not offer native messaging or chat.

TeamGraph is a free WordPress plugin for storing reusable people records and publishing them as an organization chart, card grid or directory list. Pages can include a view through a Gutenberg block or shortcode without a page builder. Grid and directory layouts provide live search plus department and location filters. A wp-admin Chart Builder lets administrators drag members to change managers and reorder the hierarchy. CSV import and export support roster maintenance, with a downloadable import template. Views use semantic HTML and keyboard navigation, and the chart works without JavaScript. The plugin says it makes no external requests or collects analytics, keeping data in the WordPress database. Uninstall preserves team data by default, with a setting to delete it. TeamGraph is available at free on WordPress.org and requires WordPress 6.4 or higher and PHP 8.0 or higher.
