Features, benefits & costs: The best HR software for small businesses
The best HR software and tools for small businesses – reviewed by Stribe with a focus on benefits for small to medium sized organisations.
Read MoreIf you’ve landed here, you’re probably trying to figure out:
You’re not alone.
Many teams we speak to say the same thing – they love the idea of Culture Amp, but they find it difficult to justify the price tag (and to even find the pricing in the first place).
So if you’re comparing Culture Amp competitors, or just looking for a simpler and more transparent solution, you’re in the right place.
At Stribe, we offer a powerful, affordable Culture Amp alternative that helps teams get better feedback without the faff.
Here’s how we compare.
Culture Amp is a well-known employee engagement platform offering a suite of tools for surveys, feedback, and performance.
It’s built for larger, enterprise-level organisations and includes features such as engagement surveys, performance reviews, and in-depth metrics.
While it’s a great tool for some, many HR teams find it hard to get started without a dedicated internal resource – and even harder to get clear information on cost.
Stribe is simpler, more affordable, and built specifically for busy HR teams who want meaningful feedback without jumping through hoops.
While Culture Amp is aimed at large, global organisations, Stribe focuses on small-medium sized teams who want a tool that’s:
✅ Easy to use
✅ Easy to set up
✅ Easy to act on
…all without the hefty price tag!
Good question.
A lot of people searching for “how much does Culture Amp cost” are frustrated that there’s no pricing on the website.
Instead, you’re asked to book a demo or contact sales.
HR folk have even taken to Reddit in an attempt to gather any information at all.
From what our research tell us, Culture Amp pricing typically starts from around £5 – £10 per employee per month, depending on features and contract length.
Additional fees apply for advanced features and add-ons.
That can quickly add up for small to mid-sized teams.
At Stribe, we do things differently.
Our pricing is simple, transparent, and designed for growing teams – so you know exactly what you’re getting.
One of the biggest frustrations HR teams share with us about Culture Amp is how complex it can feel, while simultaneously lacking intuitiveness.
Between the number of modules, dashboards, and performance tools, it’s easy to get overwhelmed – especially if you’re a small or mid-sized team without a dedicated People Operations function.
On top of that, many find themselves paying for features they don’t use, or struggling to drive adoption across their organisation.
That’s where Stribe is different.
We’ve built Stribe to focus on what really matters:
And unlike Culture Amp, our set-up is quick and our pricing is clear, so you can get started fast without needing a sales call (if you have less than 100 employees).
Best of all, Stribe is designed specifically for hybrid, remote and dispersed teams – which means tailored support, relevant templates, and a team that understands your workplace challenges.
It’s everything you need to build a better employee experience, with none of the complexity.
If you’re a small-medium sized organisation and you’re looking at Culture Amp competitors and want something that’s easier to use, more affordable, and just as impactful – Stribe might be the one.
We work with brilliant teams across the UK and overseas, who want better feedback without the faff.
